"We found the banking poMtlon

ho concluded. "A great many loans

Altogether, tilings nre looking brighter
nnd It lo almost certain the worst of the
business dcprcslon has been seen."
Railroad Situation tho Keynote
It was ngnln insisted by those who
had much to do with directing recent
price movements that nil the develop
ments tlmt might come as n sequence
to thn change in business nnd llnnnclnl
conditions In the last two years can he
regarded as n closed book ns far as
market Influence is concerned. These In
tercets nro looking forward to new de
velopments that will have a broad and
bettering Inllucnce on tho Industrial
situation generally and on the trans
portation, field In particular, meaning
that they look for favorable action by

as noon as Congress rcsumca Its work
on Wednesday, nnd the enactment of
that measure Into low is expected to be
followed by the placing of railway
orders for materials necessary in con
struction work that hns been held In
abeyance for practically ten years.
Llttlo construction or nddltions hnve
been ninde in that time, although rail
way engineers hnvo been making every
effort to obtain allowances for needed
ciiunges nnu improvement. This is ex
jicrled to be n nucleus for new activity
in the steel Industry nnd should extend
also to the copper trade.
Prico Maladjustments
In pointing out the Inequalities In
liquidation ns an obstacle to business
revival, the current number of tho In
dex, published by the New York Trust
Company, Fays In pnrt:
"While considerable progress has been
made in the readjustment of prices im
portant inequalities still exist, and it is
generally agreed that these maladjust
ments constitute onn of the principal
obstacles to business revival. Ky com
paring wholesale price index figures
with the prices of individual basic com
modities (all of which nre Included in
the general index number) it is possible
to find out just where maladjustment
exists, nnd how great is the Inequality
in prices as related to particular com
modities. Such an examination indl
cnU'H that while some nre selling miite
vlally below their pre-war levels, eer-
tain of them still command prices more
than double those of 1013."
LlUle Strain Front Crop Movement
Two Important factors augur well for
Improvement' In tho money situation,
both In the West ns well as tho Hast,
namely, tho recent successful llnnnclnl
operations of the Uovernment In retiring
Treasury certificates and tho reports ot
a substantial Increase In the rescrvo of
tho Federal Reserve Institutions.
It Is apparent that tho period of nil
tumn purports of sufficient funds for
taking enro of tho crop situation where
by little strain will be noted In the sup
ply of funds for nil sections of tho conn
tjy. In fact, tho opinion Is expressed
that some easing In rates Is forthcom
ing. However, It Is hardly probable
(hat. when business revival takes place,
which Is looked for on a modciuta sculo
between now nnd the end of tho yenr,
that tho requirements for manu
facturing and Industrial concerns will
bo sufficiently strong to keep money
intes on about tlio sumo basis as they
now exist.
Cutting Down the Overhead
rursunnt to its announced policy of
retrenchment, tho Mcrcuntllo Bank of
Amcrlcn has still further reduced over
head cxpenm's by releasing a largo num
ber of employes. Among those released
aro one or moro vice presidents and
managers. It is expected that this last
reduction In its forces will reduce the
operating expenses of the bank to n
point where present cnrnlugs will show
a profit.
Whether or not tills hnnk wilt even-
'"ally liquidate Its affairs entirely Is not
definitely determined. Humors thnt the
bank Intended tn llmllrlnto hnvn en fnr
ucen ucnieii by tnoso responsible for Its
affairs. It was pointed out that tho
first problem to bo disposed of was to
put the bank on n paying basis. After
tnis nns been effected the directors will
then take up the question of whether
or not to continue activities.
In nnv event it Is not expected thnt
there will be any immediate chango In
the present policy. As in tho case of
the recent sale of Its Argentine affiliate,
the fianco Mercantile y Arrlcola de
Buenos Aires, the disposal of more of
Its brunches nnd nlilllntes may be ef
fected in the future if favorable oppor
tunities present themselves nnd such ac
tion is in keeping with the policy of the
bonk at the present time.

To All
Telephone Users
Become a partner in the "Bell System" by purchase of
American Telephone and Telegraph Company stock.
We believe that there are few, if any, concerns in this country whose positions are
more secure
BECAUSE :

Financially
Its Jissets in value equal not only all its in
debtedness but also at least twice the par
value of its outstanding stock. Its stock
holders have paid in, IN CASH, much
moro than the par value of the stock.
There is no "water" in the capitalization.
Commercially
Its growth is sure and steady regardless
of the ever-changing business conditions.
As it has come to be more and more recog
nized as a necessity, its expansion is more
rapid than the growth of the country
itself.
Earnings
THE AMERCAN TELEPHONE AND
TELEGRAPH COMPANY has never paid
a dividend which it has not earned with a
wide margin of safety. It is now earning
at the rate of about $12 per share plus its
equity in the undivided earnings of its con
trolled companies.
Record
For forty consecutive years the Company
(with its predecessor) has paid uninter
rupted dividends of at least $7.50 per
share. The Directors have now placed
the Company upon a $9.00 per year divi
dend basis.
Prospects
THERE is a large business in sight and the
evidence of the past points to an endless
increase.
Distribution
The $515,000,000 stock of this Company is
owned by more than 175,000 different
people, an average of about 29 shares to a
stockholder! We believe that no other
Company in the world, having no pre
ferred stock, has so many stockholders. It
has many stockholders in every State and
is adding new ones faster than ever before
in its history.
Politically
The Company is "NOT IN POLITICS."
The Public Commissions NOW know that
this is true and they know that the Oper
ating Companies endeavor to be fair with
the public and with the Commissions. They
therefore almost universally accord fair
treatment to the Company.
Character
A CORPORATON may be quite right in all
the above respects but still be unsound be
cause of its management. This Company
is sound.
This Company has CHARACTER in its
Management, sound, honest, faithful intel
ligent CHARACTER.
Its traditions are those of fair treatment
and efficient service to the public ; its per
sonnel is saturated with these ideals from
its President, H. B. THAYER, all through
the organization and through the organiza
tions of its associate companies.

Self Preservation
Is Nature's First Law
TO PROTECT oneself and those close
to one is a natural instinct as old
as time. From the days of bare hands
or the war club, self protection has
developed with civilization into many
complex divisions.
One of these divisions is insurance life,
accident, fire, etc., and latest, but far from
being least Credit Insurance.
It is almost an instinct for most to protect
themselves, their homes or their buslnesies
with the first named forms of insurance, and
as a better knowledge of Credit Insurance is
had, no business worth while will be without
it, for it is the only perfect safeguard against
excess loss from failures.
To get that better knowledge ask our agent
today.
