Proposed Allotment of $50,000,- 000 to Move Crops Has In spired Confidence, They Say. Approval of Secretary McAdoo’s proposal to deposit $50,000,000 in the banks of the West and South to as sist In moving the crops is unanmpus among the heads of Atlanta's national bank* They like it because it will set ft fine precedent; because the actual money will be of great aid; because the money is offered more cheaply than it can be borrowed in New York, and because the sentimental effect al ready is seen in an accession of public confidence. Some of them see in the move an attempt to create a market for 2 peT cent Government bonds, which are de- presMd because the Owen-GlftRP cur rency bill threatens to make them un available as a basis for circulation. This motive, however, is Justifiable, and bankers agree that whatever the Inspiration, its result will be good. How the ”2V’ Would Benefit. The Secretary of tfie Treasury stip ulates that only those bank** which have 40 per cent of their authorized circulation shall be given the addition al deposits. Some of the banks which have small circulation out standing would have to increase their issues in order to get the funds, and would have to buy bonds to do this. The demand thus created mignt help the price of Government 2’s. an the supply of 4’r and 3’h is limited. Joseph A. McCord, of the Third National Bank, approves of the naw policy, but says that if farmers would be a little more business-like, help would not be neede 1. "Secretary McAdoo," he eayH, "un doubtedly can assist greatly by de positing government money during the crop-moving periods. But there is a way in which the cotton crop could be moved without the use of a single dollar of actual money. Farmers Should Pay by Check. "If the farmers would depositthe check which pays them for their cotton, and then pay their debts oy check, no real silver, gold or green backs need be used at all. The trou ble always has been that the farmer demands cash for his cotton. He curries it home in his pocket and leaves it around the hpuse for a week or so. Finally he goes and pays his debts in actual money. With hun dreds of thousands of farmers dfdng this huge sums in currency rmjFt ue borrowed by the ha..ks for this tem porary US6.” Critics of Secretary McAdoo havo Insisted that he is unwise in send ing so much money away from th' Treasury. An emergency, they say, would find him with depleted funds. In reply to this Robert F. Maddox, of the American Nationul Bank, says. "This is the ounce of prevention which makes a cure unnecessary. There will be no emergency when th«* government takes such an attitude. It often has been said that there is no sentiment in business. This is wrong. Nothing is so much affected by senti ment as money. Business is credit; credit is confidence. The action the secretary has taken already is reflect ed in better feeling all through this section.” Captain C. E. Currier, of the Atlan ta National Bank, speaks in the same strain "The Secretary has forestalled the possibility of any untoward de velopments," he says. "The confi dence thus begotten does more good than the actual money. Of course, there will he careful scrutiny of the banks which ask for these deposits, but no one need fear that Atlanta’s commercial paper will not pass the test," Colonel Robert J. Lowry, of the Lowry National Bank, has written a letter to Secretary McAdoo congratu lating him upon his action. William J. Blalock, of the Fulton National Bank, also calls the move “an ounce of prevention." and says it will have a most beneficial effect.
