American Bankers Association
Describes Its Activities to Cre
ate Better Understanding
Regarding Banks
NEW YORK.—Eight different lines
of activity through which the Amer
ican Bankers Association is constant
ly aiming to promote better public un
derstanding and opinion in regard to
banking and the attitude of bankers
toward legislation are described in de
tail in a statement made public here
by R. S. Hecht, president of the asso
ciation.
The aim, he says, is "to strengthen
the real basis for good opinion in re
gard to the banks,” through fostering
informative bank advertising in the
newspapers and in other ways. The
statement was Issued in reply to sug
gestions received urging a nation
wide public educational program In
regard to "the business of banking and
Its place In the life of our country.”
Mr. Hecht declares that "we have
tried very hard to convince the public
that the banking fraternity has truly
profited by the lessons of the past, is
determined to approach all questions
of banking policy from the broad view
point of public welfare and is prepared
to carry its full share of the burden In
connection with all efforts to restore
sound prosperity in this country.”
The Means Employed
In describing the various measures
of the association "to exert a benefi
cial influence on public opinion re
garding the functions, methods and
operations of banks," Mr. Hecht enu
merated the following activities:
1. The Public Education Commission,
which prepares plain language talks about
banking for use of bankers and others be
fore schools, civic clubs and over the radio.
2. The Constructive Customer Relations
program, Installed In many banks to help
qualify bank employees to promote, a bet
ter Informed and more sympathetic atti
tude among their customers regarding
banking.
3. The Publicity Department, supplying
city and country dally and weekly news
papers with articles regarding banking
and allied subjects and furnishing the
general press with news and Information
regarding the activities of the association.
4. The Advertising Department, supply
ing members of the association with a
series of Informative newspaper adver
tisements setting forth In brief, popular
language the methods and policies under
which banks operate, their effective prac
tices for protecting depositors’ funds, the
services they render and the various ways
in which they cooperate with business in
their own communities In fostering sound
recovery and progress.
5. The Executive Officers and the Com
mittee on Banking Studies, who are ac
tive, particularly at Washington, In con
sulting with Administration and Congres
sional leaders In formulating proposals
for banking reform based on broad Unes
of public welfare.
(1. The Agricultural Commission, pro
moting among bankers in the farm dis
tricts the practice of aiding their farm
customers In Installing on their farms bet
ter financial and operating methods.
7 'rise American Institute of Banking,
having primarily to do with the technical
education of the younger banker, but now
directing these efforts toward also playing
a part In improving public relations for
banking as a whole, particularly through
stressing the public responsibilities and
the ethical aspects of practical banking.
3. The publication of "Banking.’ the
odlelal organ of the association, circu
lating among bankers, bank directors,
business executives, economists, law
firms, government departments, libraries,
colleges, public schools and other publica
tions, presenting articles regarding bank
ing and banking viewpoints.
The Objective Sought
In commenting on the foregoing pro
gram, Mr. Hecht says that it is not “the
primary objective to attract attention
particularly to the American Bankers
Association as such, but rather to fo
cus attention on and give impetus to
those ideas which it believes are bene
ficial in promoting understanding and
solidarity among banking, business and
the public.” He adds:
"Our program for the development
of satisfactory public relations for
banking does not consist merely of
newspaper publicity. It is calculated
to produce a continuous and cumula
tive effect by varied efforts which are
aimed to work day in and day out to
strengthen the real basis tor good opin
ion In regard to the banks.
"To have favorable things said
about the banking business In the
newspapers and over the radio is, the
association recognizes, very helpful
toward creating a sound public opln
lon regarding banking. But the asso
elation believes that the most impor
tant thing ultimately is to foster
throughout the banking profession
the doing sincerely of those things
that reflect favorably the sound, help
ful practices of the business of bank
Ing, and that then the true news of its
constructive activities will constitute
the best answers to misrepresentations
aimed at banks and bankers.”
Predicts Farm Loan Expansion
NEW BRUNSWICK. N. J. — With
marked improvement in agriculture
already apparent, and further improve
ment confidently expected, a greatly
expanded volume of farm credit will
be required, especially short-term
credit, according to a statement here
recently by W. I. Myers, Governor of
the Farm Credit Administration. Wash
ington, D. C. He was speaking before
the Graduate School of Banking, con
ducted jointly by the American Insti
tute of Banking Section of the Ameri
can Bankers Association and Rutgers
University.
"Some people have expressed a fear
that the Cooperative Production Credit
Associations are threatening the busi
ness of country banks, but these in
stitutions have neither the desire nor
the resources to monopolize a field
which is still in the infancy of develop
ment,” Governor Myers said. "Farmers
who get their credit on time or by
charge accounts have a basis for cash
loans and should be buying their ere
from a bank, production ocedit as
atlon or other institutions that
credit on a business basis.”

THE following method - usually
works when a wheel you want to
remove sticks so badly that the or
dinary wheel-pulling methods fail-
Jack up the corresponding wheel on
the opposite side of the car. Un
screw the hub nut of the wheel you
want to remove so as to bring the
nut flush with the threaded end of
the axle. Then strike the axle end a
number of sharp blows with a heavy
hammer. The combined pressure and
jarring will almost always do the
trick.

To straighten out dents in the
body that can’t easily be gotten at
from inside, remove the enamel
from the damaged area, sandpaper,
and apply a light coating of solder.
Bend a strong wire at right angles
and solder one side of the angle to
the center of the dent. Form the free
end of the wire into a hook and in
sert a bar to act as a handle or
lever. Pulling on this or using it as
a lever will usually puli’ out the
dent. Touch up with enamel after
removing solder with a blowtorch.
