Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of People's Banks The success of various European systems of cooperative credit has aroused wide interest not only in this country, but also in every civilized nation. Almost every important government in the world has tried at some time to secure for its citizens the benefits of these unique institutions. Finally in 1913 the President of the United States appointed a commission to go to Europe with a larger group assembled by the Southern Commercial Congress, to study, among other aspects of rural life, those cooperative institutions which served farmers. The testimony presented to this commission offered an unusual abundance of source material. But the speed with which that commission was compelled to travel over Europe seemed to leave still some room for investigations of a humbler and more detailed kind, while the fact that this commission devoted its attention primarily to rural credits made it seem desirable to gather some additional material with respect to urban institutions. Thus it happened that the writer of the following pages also spent some months abroad in 1913 trying to gather material for a description of these institutions. Before the results of this investigation were ready for presentation to the public, there was published in this country a remarkable book on Rural Credits by Myron T. Herrick, and R. Ingalls. Substantially half of that work was devoted to a description of Cooperative Credit. This description included urban as well as rural institutions.

This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The People's Banks of Their Organization Under the Recent Law The two corner-stones on which, in Mr. Schulze's opinion, the edifice of the successful People's Banking Association rests are: 1. The solidarity or personal responsibility of all the members for the Society liabilities and 2. The form ation of a Society Capital in the form of business shares, which are the property of members, and a reserve fund, the exclusive property of the Association. The writer will not undertake to condense or repeat the explanations given in the following translations, but would say a few words in defence of the first principle, - that of solidarity, to which it is foreseen the most determined Opposition will be made in this country. The principal objections are reviewed somewhat as follows in Mr. Schulze's work on People's Banks hereinafter mentioned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Other People's Money: And How the Bankers Use It Leading bankers in New York and Boston were heartily recommending the stock to their customers. Mr. Brandeis made his prophecy merely by analyzing the published figures. How did he win in the pinchot-clavis-ballinger controversy? In various ways, no doubt; but perhaps the most critical step was when he calculated just how long it would take a fast worker to go through the clavis-ballinger record and make a judgment of it; whereupon he decided that Mr. Wickersham could not have made his report at the time it was stated to have been made, and therefore it must have been predated.

Download or read book The Freedmen s Savings Bank written by Walter L. Fleming and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-01-30 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Freedmen's Savings Bank: A Paper In most of the copies of the law as published at the time the amendment limit ing the bank to Washington City is omitted, and both the Nation and the Bank cr's Magazine assert that both amendments slipped out of the enrolled bill. But in the pamphlet laws as published in the Globe, 38th Cong, 2d Sess., Appendix, p. 143, only the name of Chase is omitted. The first section of the act named fifty prominent gentlemen as incorporators and trustees,1 with power to fill vacancies by election, at least ten votes being necessary to the election of a trustee. A successor might be elected to any trustee who neg lected for six months to attend the meetings of the board. These meetings were to be held at least once a month. The trustees were to elect from their number a president and two vice presi dents; and nine trustees, one of whom must be the president or a vice president, constituted a quorum. At least seven affirma tive votes were acquired to authorize any investment, sale, or transfer of securities. The object of the corporation, as stated in the law, was to receive deposits from negroes and invest at least two-thirds of them in securities of the United States, one third being held on deposit or otherwise as an available fund for current expenses. Not more than seven per cent. Interest was to be allowed on deposits. The interest on deposits uncalled for within two years after the death of a depositor would be applied' to the education of negroes, and the principal was to be so applied if not claimed within seven vears. No one connected with the bank as trustee or official was to be allowed, directly or indirectly, to borrow the funds of the bank. None of the trustees, except the president and the vice presidents, was to receive any com pensation whatever. The officials were to receive such salaries and give such bonds as might be fixed by the trustees. The books of the bank were at all times to be open to the inspection of the agents of Congress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Banks and Bankers A volume of this description, if correctly written in a readable style, must, I apprehend, be accept able to people of all ranks. The matters it relates to intimately concern all our great masses, agricul tural, manufacturing, and commercial; they are not only of the highest importance in their bearings and effects, but they have a particular interest even as subjects of abstract inquiry. If to these cousi derations we add another, - namely, the ignorance so generally and so strangely prevailing amongst us upon the question of money, banking, and cur reney, enough, perhaps, will have been premised to indicate that the work will be likely to find many readers, if justice be done to his undertaking by the author.

Download or read book Loans and Investments Classic Reprint written by Oliver Mitchell Wentworth Sprague and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-22 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Loans and Investments They furnish borrowers, because they provide a more or less generally acceptable substitute for coined money as a circulating or purchasing medium. The bank note, the promise of a bank to pay money on demand, is quite obviously a credit instrument which is a substitute for money; and in the absence of legal restrictions upon issue the volume of such notes in circulation would clearly depend upon the willingness of people to accept them in payment for goods and services. Partly because of legislation limiting the power to issue notes, and even more because the check has been found more convenient for most purposes, the bank note has become a subordinate and rather special means of extending credit. Banks, of course, do not extend credit directly by issuing checks, since the check is an order on a bank to pay money, not a bank's promise to pay money. Such orders are based upon obligations to pay money recorded on the books of the bank, known as deposits. This term deposits is a misnomer. It suggests to most people that the bank has at some time or other received from depositors the amount of their deposits in money. Banks are often spoken of as lending their deposits. This is a most inaccurate and misleading use of lan guage, since deposits are obligations already in curred, an existing liability, which, moreover, is largely due to loans granted. Clearly a bank can not lend its already existing obligations to pay. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of Banks and Bankers The following chapters are reprinted, with some additions and corrections, from a weekly paper. Written at intervals, and necessarily disconnected, their only claim to attention is the comparative novelty of the subject. The world at large hears much less about trading than about fighting-men, though there seems no reason whatever why banking, for example, should not be quite as interesting a pursuit as battling. At any rate, it may be pleaded in favour of the Stories of Banks and Bankers, that while scores of heavy volumes have been written about the dynasties of Schwarzburg Sondershausen and saxe-coburg-gotha, very little as yet is known about the no less.

Download or read book Practical Banking Classic Reprint written by Albert Sidney Bolles and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Banking An explanation is needful concerning the origin and composition of this work. For several years letters have been received-by the publisher-of the Banker's Magazine inquiring whether a work like this existed. Other letters of inquiry have been received concerning the Banker's common-place Book, which, after the issue of several edi tions, went out of print. For a long period I have been trying to find an opportunity to embody the more important matters contained in that work, with additional information in a new form, but the desire to complete other undertakings resulted in the postponement of this until after my connection with the School of Finance and Economy in the University of Pennsylvania, when the need of the book for the purpose of instruction was so great that the prepara tion of it was begun. The work, therefore, has been prepared to serve a double purpose; first, for those in banks, and elsewhere, who wish to learn how the business of banking is conducted; and, secondly, for use as a text book for the students whom it is my pleasure to instruct. I have not aimed to produce an original work, but the best for the purposes mentioned. Accordingly, I have profited by the labor of others to a considerable extent, and it is fitting that I should acknowledge my indebtedness to them. In 1858 James S. Gibbons, Cashier of the Ocean Bank of New York, wrote a work on T fie Banks of New York, which ran through ten editions, and merited the favorable reception accorded to it. Changes, however, have occurred in banking methods since he wrote, while the style of Mr. Gibbons' work, though very lively and appropriate for the gen eral reader, is not suitable for a class-room book. Nevertheless, I have drawn very largely from that source in the preparation of Part I. And with much pleasure I acknowledge my indebtedness to this pioneer in describing the methods of conducting the business of banking. Aid has been derived from other sources. This has been acknowledged in various places, but additional mention may be properly made of several writers and sources of information. The more important sections of the Banker's common-place Book have been thoroughly revised and incorporated with other matter in Chapters VI. And VII and the essay entitled Suggestions to Young Cashiers on the Duties of their Profession, is given in the Appendix. Another portion of Chapter VII from pages 51 to 58, was written by George Walker, formerly Bank Commissioner of Massachusetts, and a banker of many years' experience, who has justly acquired the high reputation he enjoys as a financial writer on both sides of the Atlantic. Chapter XIV., on The Book keeper, has been prepared by S. R. Hopkins, who has happily joined an exceptionally valuable experience as an accountant in all its forms, private, corporate and municipal, with excellent facility for description. He has also prepared the last part of the work re lating to Trust Companies. The Chapter on Private Banking is from the pen of Eugene R. Leland, Of New York, formerly a banker in Wisconsin.

The direct cause of his death was over-work. He died at Boston, May 22, 1886. The papers collected in the present work began in rhodes' journal OF banking in August, 1884, and were continued.
