the country is sound and liquid and
banks bare never been in stronger po

it is no longer necessary for banks to
be super-liquid.*** There is a definite
lief office together with donations
from the community. The teachers
were responsible for the preparation
of the lunches, which was done on the
school stove when possible. When
necessary the preparation was done at
home by the teachers and heated at
school before serving time.
Families in the community cooper
ated by contributing milk, canned to
matoes, potatoes, dried beans and
peas. Each pupil brought a cup or
bowl and spoon from home for serv
ing the lunch. Hot dishes prepared
were vegetable soup, toast with
jheese sauce, cocoa, creamed eggs,
cereal wheat, hot biscuits and butter,
baked potatoes, hominy and befcf
stew and peas.

let us thank L4e President, who has
labored with courage and patience and

whose members during the emergency

Public Confidence Returns
Direct information indicates con
clusively that the banking situation is
showing definite and steady improve
ment, J. F. T. O’Connor. Comptroller of
the Currency of the United States, said
in a recent address. He pointed nut that
the decided drop which has occurred In
money in circulation shows the public
has largely ceased hoarding.
On March 1, 1934. tire Federal
serve Board reported that the volume
of money in circulation amounted to
$5,356,000,000, which was a decline of
$1,077,000,000 since March 1. 1933. It
was a drop of $2,226,000,000, or over 29
per cent, from the all-time peak of
$7,581,000,000 reached on March. 13,
1933. About one-half the decrease, it
war pointed out. reflected the return of
currency from the public.
Money in circulation declined rapid
ly after the^reopening of the banks in
March, 1933^ and • has continued since
to decline from week to week, “notwith
standing the increase in the demand
for currency arising from enlargement
of pay rolls and Increase In the volume
of retail trade,” the Comptroller said,
which, be added, “indicates a continued
.return of money from hoards as bank-,
Ing facilities were reestablished.”"
