Washington, Jaa. 34.—How the'
United States has become the domi
nant banking power of the world la
shown in the annual report of the
Comptroller of the Currency, jonn
Skelton Williams, presented today to
congress. 1
Comptroller Williams estimates the
whole banking power of the nation at
$27,529,000,400, an increase of more
than $14,000,000,000 since the begin
ning of President' Wilson’s adminis
tration. Taklg the latest estimate of
the banking power of the world,
placed in 1890 at $16,558,000,000,'Am
erica’s Increase la alone nearly equal
to the world’s combined banking pow
er twenty-seven years ago, and on
that basis now two and a half times
as great.
National banks of the United
States, Comptroller Williams de
clares, are stronger, safer, more ob
servant of'laws and more efficiently
managed than ever before. Their
resources — $18,553,497,000 — are by
more than two billion dollars greater
than ever before and exceed by about
the same amount the combined re
sources of all state banks private
banks and trust companies. Under
three years of the federal reserve
system national bank resources have
Increased more than $7,000,000,000.
Comptroller Williams, however,
couples his report of this enormous
growth with a warning that duties
and responsibilities have Increased
no less than the resources.
"It is of supreme Importance,” he
says, "that allurements of profit
from commerce or industry ln this
country or ln neutral countries, not
essential to our success in the war,
should not Induce us to divert or dis
sipate the capital of financial
tources of our people.”
The danger from decline of earn
ing capacity of public utility corpor
ations and consequent shrinking of
values ln their securities, the comp
troller warns, Is a real danger which
should stimulate the efforts of con
gress and every patriotic citizen,
First relief, he thinks might come
from state commissions and munici
pal authorities, and he expresses the
hope that congress will directly or
indirectly provide tor the advancing
of money to corporations where it Is
necessary to Insure proper service to
the government The proposal Is un
usual the comptroller admits, but he
points ont that the times are unus-
iL
Government guarantee of bank de
posits ln sums under $5,000, the
comptroller believes, would bring in
to nse much hoarded money and he
renews his recommendation to con
gress to enact such a law..
A great volume of statistical In
formation attached to the report
shows the increasing growth of the
banking system and the reduction in
failures and losses.
