Approval of Secretary McAdoo’b proposal to deposit $50,000,000 In the banks of the West and South to as sist in moving the crops is unanmous among the heads of Atlanta's national banks. They like it because it will set a fine precedent; because the actual money will be of grant aid; because the money is offered more cheaply thun 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 per cent Government bonds, which are de- prestfsd because the Owen-Glass 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 th* “2V Would Benofit. The Secretary of the Treasury stip ulates that only those bank* which have 40 per cent of their authorized circulation shall be given the addition al deposits. Home 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, a* the supply of 4’s and 3’s 1* limited. Joseph A. McCord, of the Third National Bank, approves of the n3'.v policy, but says that if farmers would j be a little more business-like, help would not be need* 1. “Secretary McAdoo/’ he says, “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 ol a single dollar of actual money. Farmers Should Pay by Check. “If the farmers would deposit the check which pays them for their cotton, and then pay their debts by check, no real silver, gold or green backs need be used at all. The trou ble always has been that the farin' r demands cash for his cotton. He carries It home in hi* pocket and leaves It around the house for a week or so. Finally he goes and pays his debts in actual money. With hun dred* of thousands of farmers doing this hug*' sums in currency must im borrowed by the bttt.kg for this tem porary use." Critics of Secretary McAdoo have insisted that he Is unwise in send ing so much money away from the Treasury. An emergency, they say, would find him with depleted funds. in reply to this Robert F. Maddox, of the American National Bunk, says. “This Is the ounce of prevention which makes a cure unnecessary. There will be no emergency w hen the 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 a* 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 be careful scrutiny of the | banks which ask for these deposits, j 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.
