Plans for stimulating wider use of informative newspaper advertising by banks in promoting pub lic understanding and confidence In re gard to existing basking conditions and methods bave been announced by R. 8. Hecht, President of the American Bankers Association, as a part of bis organization's activities In aid of busi ness recovery. A general groundwork was prepared through a nationwide survey or adver tising by banks relative to their will ingness to extend Justifiable loans to Industry and trade. This, he said, re vealed that a large number in all parts of the country are pursuing aggressive policies along this line and encourag ing their customers to develop forward looking business plans. "It Is our aim to aid in fostering this constructive atti tude wherever possible," he said. The Theme of New Advertising Tho association's Advertising De partment, under the direct supervision of tho general executive oQlcers, has prepared, at the headquarters in New York City, an informative advertising serios for the use of member banks in tho association to aid them in develop ing in their own communities better general public understanding regard ing banking, Mr. Hecht said. "The underlying theme of this adver tising is that Bound banking is based on helpfu. human relations and that It has a unity of Interest with tho people of its community which binds them to gether with a common purpose," he said. "We are confident that if a clear un derstanding of this is brought homo to tho people In all our banking communi ties, it will go far In restoring the pub lic confidence which good banking de serves. A bank in which people de servedly believe is doubly safe. It is to thoc^ubllc interest for the people to have confidence In their bankB. The Place of Advertising "We feel that bank advertising has a special public duty to perform in this connection ander existing conditions. The copy which will be supplied in the service we have developed will not only aid the Individual bank In promoting the use of its own facilities but Is also aimed co bring about with the aid of newspaper advertising a clearer public viewpoint regarding the essential part It occupies In the life of Its communi ty." Mr. Hecht emphasized In regard to the new advertising facilities being of fered to the members of the association that they are not a profit making ven ture and that there 1b no Intention to disturb existing advertising arrange ments, the Idea being that these Insti tutional services shall supplement rather than replace present plans, or that they will give assistance to mem ber banks now lacking satisfactory ar rangements. MANY BANKS LONG LIVED In the United States ? 168 Banks over 100 years old. 2,472 Banks over 50 years old. 10,391 Banks over 25 years old. There are In the Onltod States 168 banks that have boen In continuous ex istence for more than one hundred years. There are 2,472 banks over fifty years old, while 64% of all the banks In this country, or 10,391, are twenty-tlve years old or older. ?n otner words, practically two-thirds of the banks In this country have com? through several successive periods of depression and panic, including 1907, 1914, 1920 and 1929-33. The Oldest Bank The oldest bank In the country, which Is In Boston, was chartered February 17, 1784. In the 64% of banks that are twen ty-flvo years old or older Is lodged a major portion of the banking re sources of the nation. In commenting recently upon the stability of a great mnjorlty of the Minks In the United Htatos, Dr. Harold Htonlor, Educational Director of the American Flankers As sociation, said: "The fact that wo have so many , banks that have beon In existence a long period of yearn Is an eloquent tribute to tho genius or American man. agerlal ability, for no other country hns experienced Birch wild gambling eras and resultant periods of business stagnation as thoso through which our country has passed at froquont Inter vals during tho pant century." NEW WEALTH FROM SOIL Now woalth which comes from the soil Is of special Interest to those to whom falls the responsibility of main taining our oredlt structure. Unless agriculture Is successful farm borrowers cannot ultimately succeed, neither can the banks they ?erve. Kore closeure sales are not a sound basis for good farming or good banking. Rank ers, therefore, are as much Interested In the permanent success of tho agri cultural Industry as are the farmers, whether the deposits come directly from farm patrons, or Indirectly through the ordinary channels busl nons.?T).
