TRUST COMPANIES ARE INCREASING Report Shows That Financial Institu tions With Pennsylvania Charters Are Exhibiting No Desire to Join the Regional Bank System In his annual report just sent to the Governor, covering the operations of the Banking Department for 1914, Banking Commissioner William 11. t*mith deals at length with the sub ject of Regional banks, established by the Federal government under the new order of financial things, and says that no State financial institution appears to have any desire to join the system, lie concludes that any advantages offered by the new Federal act are more than offset bv the privileges State banks now enjoy under their State char ters. He sets forth that the one State institution that made application for membership has withdrawn the applica tion. The following are the Banking Commissioner's conclusions on this sub ject: "It has been the policy of this de partment for several years, and all f'auks and trust companies have been advised accordingly, that the surplus of an institution should be intact just a< should its capital. When capital is impaired the law is mandatory as to the course to be taken to have the im pairment made good. Morally we view the impairment of a published surplus to be as serious as the impairment of a published cap.ta , aud hence no bank or tr.ist company has the right to ex hibit a surplus or to report the same under oath to this department when its assets are not sufficient to make up such surplus. This advise, we are pleased to say, has been generally heeded. ••The year just closed has been of in terest by reason of the amendment to the national laws on banking and the • reatiou of the Regional reserve banks. Two thoughts in relation ; lereto have been of paramount interest—the first being as- te whether it would be ad vantageous to our banks and trust com panies to lie associated as members of this system and the other as to their legal riglvts. under the laws of Penn sylvania. to become members if ad vantages to their-respective corpora tions would thereby result. As to Legislative Recommendations "In the last annual report of our department mention was made of the fa i that there might be some reason to make recommendations to the Leg islature in this regard. The Regional banks have opened aud have been run ning along for three months but there does not appear to be any desire, so far as we are advised, by any insti tution chartered by this Commonwealth, to join this system. It is our conclu sion, after careful observation, that the officers and directors who may have tken thi< matter into consideration have finally decided that any advan tages offered by the new Federal act are more than offset by the privileges whin the State banks now enjoy by tiieir State charters. In fact, from information received, there appears to have been but one State batik which made application for membership and this has recently been withdrawn. There is nothing, therefore, for the depart ment to consider or advise upon or to refer to the Attorney General for a legal opinion as to the right of a bank or trust company in this State to ac vept membership in this national sys tem. "Although not members of the Reg ional banks our State institutions can not be denied the benefits, which it is believ ed will accrue therefrom, the first of which is conceded by all bankers to be an elastic currency in case of a general panic. There cannot, as we un derstand practical affairs, be any chanrge in the method of collections. The reserve system in this State will' continue as heretofore, the act of 1907, regarding the method of selecting re serve depositories, will be adhered to and the approval of the Commissioner 0-' Banking must be obtained in the Mine manner as hitherto. anU this ap proval. while not arbitrarily exercised, is absolute. National banks are con stantly looking for the accounts of State banks and trust companies, and having once received them, these clients must be accorded the same uniform eood service as is rendered to others. ' pon the safety and adequacy of the reserve agent the responsibility rests with the department. Trust Companies Increasing "Trust companies, which do not. pur chase commercial paper or loan without collateral, could not hypothecate their ao-urities for loans under the national law with regional banks brut thev can continue as heretofore with their local reserve banks and be accommodated. Hence, so far there is no change in the cash reserve method in this State. "This report ?»hows as increase in the number of trust companies and a larger increase in the number of binks 1 and the indications are. from the num ber of pending applications, that the number for the ensuing year will be still further increased. "It is made the duty of this depart ment to recommend in its annual report •such legislation as may be adopted for the security of depositors, whose money it is our duty to safeguard. 1-Vom -our exjierie.nce restrictions uipon i our St.ite financial institutions are «lif- \ fi»*vlt to obtain while at each session i of the 1 .legislature further privileges! are granted.

State banks, like national banks, have, a double li ability; title and trust companies have no such double liability; there is no limit to the extent upon which title and trust companies may become surety and the only reason for the fact of its decreases is because of past experience of it* danger and the constant aversion of this department to its continuance. Conservative Management "There is no restriction in the amount or extent of a loan which can be made to an individual either with or without collateral, except the bor rower be a director. I'nder the general corporate laws of the Slate there has been an alarming liability in the priv ilege of purchasing investments. It is oniv when great failure occur, which upset financial, political and social con ditions, that there is a rush to make improved methods." I'nder the supervision of the depart ment there are now 175 banks of dis count. 29M trust companies and 11 sav ing institutions. :< .1 of vviiioh were sub ject to exam ina it on by the department examiners, and the expenses of the de partment were about met by the fees. Of the conservative management of the State's banking institutions, Commis sioner Smith says: "The year embraced by the statis tics of this re}>ort passed into history as one of the mo?-1 tense anxiety to our financial institutions since the incep tion of the national bank laws fifty years ago. The depreciation iu values for the. previous six or seven years it i* believed found its law water mark in 1914. Conservative management had been in the main prevalent and in many cases the public has been ap prised of the voluntary and heroic ac tion of institutions which reduced their showing of profits in accordance with the market value of liquid assets. That there have been no failures in conse quence is gratifying to report."

UHASTIA SH.HTS AT AYEZZAXO IN SEARCHING RUINS FOR DEAD Avezzano, Italy, Jan. 15. Rescue work in this devastated town is be coming a ghastly and nerve racking task. The mutilated bodies of the townspeople extricated from the ruins are being laid along the road which once led to the railway station. Some of the bodies are so unrecognizable that they frequently are claimed as bodies of relatives by different people. During the night the work of rescue was continued by torchlight and the dickering shadows made it appear as though the walls were about to fall. Some did collapse either as a result of the earthshocks still occurring or be cause the debrist supporting them was removed bv the workmen. As the work of res.'ue goes on it be comes more and more apparent that many of the inhabitants did not die ol injuries sustained in the earthquake but as a result of becoming exhausted and frozen during the long hours of the winter night. line girl who had been hanging by her clothing for many hours from an uipper rtoor of a building was finally rescued alive. ( ount Filipo Resta, a prominent resident of Avez/.ano, escap ed. though his whole family of nine persons and two servants were buried in the collapse of their dwelling . SURVIVORS OF HORROR TELL ABOUT SCENES AT AVEZZANO Rome. Jan. 15.—Some of the sur vivors at Avezznno have not even yet sufficiently recovered from the shoes of their experiences to tell a connected storv of the visitation. One man who vvivi taken yesterday from a ruin said: "1 had a sensation as though some one was torcing me to dance. Then I was thrown to the ground and the roof aud walls fell upon my head. Kven after I was half buried the earth seemed to heave and grow hot." A priest was saying mass in a church when he felt the first sho.k. Ho ru-.ied under an arch of the building aud this saved his life. The shocks destroyed the aqueduct system of Avc'/.nno, and there is to-dav no water in the town. It is reported that a statue of the Virgin, fortv feet high, which stood on the shore of Uike Fuci no, has been thrown into the water. There is considerable danger that the drained land in this vieinitv will be flooded. A 16-vear old boy was the first per son to give the news of Avezzano to the outside world. 11c succeeded in net ting back into the town a few mo ments after the first shock. He found a railroad employe and persuaded this man, with his help, to rig up a tele graph instrument in a freight car and connect it with a wire that was still intact. On the instrument the railroad man who is an operator, soon got Rome rhe two together then sent the tirst news of the disaster. KING EMMANUEL CLIMBS OVER RUINS AND CHEERS RESCUERS Rome.
