CONFEDERATE GENERAL HONORED
.
ilv .■#
t Busts of General Robert E. Lee and others famous
in American hif tory of scientific, literary and artistic
life were unveiled at the Ne.w York university this
Week. The fact that General Lee was recognized
along with Abraham Lincoln and General U. S.
.Grant is noteworthy in that the people of this na
tion arc coming to a better understanding arid that
sectional prejudices are fast passing out. A few years
since it would not have been short of treason for one
'to have suggested that the bust of General Lee be
placed in the Hall of Fame in this institution. How
ever, the world-wide war has brought our people
Closer together and imaginary lines of sectional likes
and .dislikes will soon be obliterated for all time, to
aome. lt is well.that this condition is being created
lor it will bring to this nation a reunited citizenship
and a brotherly'feeiinfc which Will bring all states -
closer'together for the good of all.
i .While the principle fought for was right, the cause
fhould always^ bo kept alive in our; minds And .hearts
aS one which should be held satTccl by all southern
ers.. General Lee was true to his country and to;the
cause he represented, .and while outnumbered and
overwhelmed on the battle fields^ he stood firm for
that which 1 he believed'to be’right and !ai(J dqWrt hie
sword after every vestige of hope had disappeared
for a victory. It was right and proper for the au
thorities of this university to recognize him as one
of the great men of America and one descrying a
place in the Hail of Famo of this famous institution.
It will help to cement a friendly feeling between
the states which no other agency c'ould have brought
about We are glad it has been done; we congratu
late those in authority and we believe that we speak
for the whole south appreciation and gratitude of the
honor shown our, greatest hero, soldier and statesman.

. CREDIT RESERVOIR IS UNTOUCHED
- One of the imost .curious.phenomena of the, present
economic situation !s ty be found in the fact thut eROt’-;,
inous expansion of trade and production in the last
year is not reflected in the reserve position Of the fed-
■ eral resefve* system. Since 1921 : prices i have ad
vanced about 30 percent, general production has in
creased over 66 per cent, employment has .grown i
amazingly.. AH of this has-required a vast amount of ,h * "jrvou* »y»t«n. co n «np«iion.
ban killg erd Jit.’ Vct'niemhcr hanltR havq’not; dira'wn-^ / %
upon the reserves of the federal < , oserve credit rcser- ■ maLm
' voir to any extent and the cash of tho ayatem remains .
at theJiighJevel .of 75 pcxccnt while rediscounts are
70 perxant under .the.192CLDcak,. ... . . ,’.'J '
' ‘ IIpw can this be? It is explained largely by thV
heavy imports of gold which have continued for
many’ months. In. 1922 tho golden flood brought to
• America $238,000,0011. This gold was received - -by
member banks and deposited as reserves with the
. federal reserve system. For every dollar of reserve
deposits the member hank can extend $10 of credit
;-to i£s. customers. During last year loans and invest
ments of member banks of the federal reserve system
increased by over $2,100,000,000 and their, deposits
increased $2,800,000^000 or roughly 10 times the
amount of gold imports. The aggregate amount of
bank loans in the country now Is vjrtually at the peak
, reached in 1920. In addition to tho gold imports, the
sale of investment holdings by hanks has enabled "
them to meet the needs of the business expansion,*r
without restyting to the reserve system.
