Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Canadian Bank of Commerce This was completed early in 1908 and the formal removal of the Bank took place on 2nd March. The illustrations on this page show some of the old keys and bolts formerly in use in the old building, and the leather pouch in which the keys were kept. In the early days these formed the only protection which the bank had against burglary. The two keys are of English make and are believed to have been in use from the founding of the bank in 1825 until about 1881 when more modern methods were adopted. The larger of the two was the key of the main door of the building, a large wooden door some six or eightinches thick, heavily sheathed with iron, and the smaller was the key of the iron door of the vault. The vault was built of granite blocks and contained two compartments, one above the other, with sep arate doors; the top one was used for storing books and papers and the bottom for cash. After the vault had been locked and the building closed for the night the keys were placed in the leather pouch and left at the President's house by the messenger, whose duty it was to call for them at eight o'clock the next morning. The large iron pin shown in the illustration fitted into a hole in the floor of the book vault and engaged the door of the cash vault, preventing it from being opened. When the pin was inserted the head was a little below the level of the floor and a piece of plaster corresponding with the floor of the vault was placed on top of it. In this way it was hoped that it would escape detection if a burglar should succeed in forcing an entrance into the book vault, a feat which in those days was thought to be next to impossible. It is interesting to observe that on one occasion when a burglary was attempted this pin was the means of saving the fish. On a Saturday night access was gained from the next building and a hole cut in the floor of the directors' room which let the burglars into the manager's room.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, Vol. 2: With an Account of the Other Banks Which Now Form Part of Its Organization S volume closes at the end of 1918, so that, to be exact, it covers about twenty months more than the first half-century of the bank's existence, to which period the record was intended to be confined. The end of 1918, however, is so strongly marked as an epoch in history that its selection seemed a matter of course. Again, as the year 1918 drew to its close the bank reached its goal of a rest or reserve fund equal to its paid-up capital and recommenced that development which had been interrupted by the Great War. The next chapter of its history is still in the making. In the preface to Volume I of this work I have said that chapter III of this volume had been written by Mr. P. C. Stevenson, of Ottawa, and chapter VII by Dr. Adam Shortt. The diagrams illustrating various aspects of the growth of the bank are the 'work of the bank's archivist, Mr. H. O. E. Asman. Through the kindness of the Depart ment of the Interior I am able to include maps of the Yukon district illustrative of chapter III.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Address Delivered on January 10th, 1922, at the Annual Meeting of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, Toronto While the yield of most agricultural products Was less than in 1920, the loss is mainly in the price. Wheat is said to have averaged only 11 cents over the pre-war average, while oats and barley were sold at less thanpre-war prices. With wheat at an average for all Canada of 86 cents, as compared with oats 37 cents instead of 53, barley 47 instead of 83, and almost every other farm product in somewhat similar proportion, the present position of the farmer is obvious. In hay the poor result was due to the lowest yield per acre on record and not to the price. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Banking in Canada Efforts to introduce the practice of banking into the British North American provinces were put forth as early as 1792. The "Canada Banking Company," then organized by certain English firms and Montreal merchants, was not destined long to survive its origin, although one at least of its 5-shilling notes which has been preserved (No. 6803) is proof that it exercised the function of issue. It seems to have left little trace, either in men's memories or in the records of the time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Abnormal Features of American Banking: Address by B. E. Walker, President of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, Given at the Meeting of the American Bankers' Association, Denver, Colorado, 30th September, 1908 I am a foreigner, but as five of the establishments included in the bank of which I am President are situated in cities of the United States, I hope you will not regard me as a foreigner for the moment. T here are very few banks in the whole country who have a larger interest in the soundness of your banking and in your freedom from panics than my own bank. Remembering my peculiar position, I am particularly desirous not to wound the susceptibilities of any of my hearers, but I hope it is safe to say that Alexander Hamilton was clearly the leading intellect in that wonderful group of men who framed the constitution. At a time when few men could withstand the onrush of new ideas, largely visionary and false, Which accompanied the French Revolution, Hamilton was unshaken in his clear vision as to the future of his country, and few will deny that where you followed his advice you did well, and where you opposed it you did not always act wisely. It may be argued that neither of the two Banks of the United States were so admirable in their careers that we need sigh over their removal, but we can only judge them by comparison with the smaller banks of the same period. In your colonial and revolutionary times you had a curiously full and varied experience in banking and currency. F iat money, depreciated coinage, currency based on land, clamour by debtors for cheaper money with which to pay debts, were all amply experienced. In the following period, contempor aneously with the first and second Banks of the United States, you passed through a time largely of mania in banking; a time when history was recording for this country such fundamental facts as that banks cannot establish a capital fund merely upon the promissory notes of shareholders; cannot put bank-notes into circulation even by the ex pedient of sending them far from home before issuing them, without considering how they are to be redeemed; can not lend money on land, or lock it up in other ways, and also have it again when the bank's debts, exigible on demand, fall to be paid. Indeed it was a time when every vagary in unsound banking was being tried. But Hamilton, from some of these experiences and from European history, planned for you a banking system which contained much of what is good in the successful systems of the world. You would not, however, have his system, but preferred to repeat in each new district, from east to south and west, wherever debt and ignorance combined to create banking and currency, the same errors which make such startling history in the early part of the nineteenth century. Is it not time for us to put aside that silly vanity to which democracies are inclined-that it is better to try our own experiments and to ignore history? Unfortunately the apparently brand-new experiments we are willing to try have usually occurred to others in the past, if we had but patience to discover the fact.
