Government's Temporary Guarantee Bank Deposit Plan Goes Into Effect Next Week —Many Join. BY RALPH HENDERSHOT Time* Special Financial Editor
Within the next few days—Jan. 1, 1934, to be exact—the government’s plan for guaranteeing bank deposits will go into effect. Deposits up to ,$2,500 in all banks which have qualified under the plan will be guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Guarantee Corporation for a period of six months. At the expiration of that period the permanent plan will go l into effect. Under the permanent plan deposits up to SIO,OOO will be
guaranteed in full, deposits of from SIO,OOO to $50,000 will be guarantees up to 75 per cent, and all deposits of more than $50,000 will be guaranteed to the extent of 50 per cent. The names of the banks which have qualified under the guarantee plan have not yet been made public, but reports from Washington indicate that most lastitutions throughout the country will be included. All national and state banks which are solvent and which are members of the Federal Reserve System will provide guarantees for their depositors, being obliged to do so under the Banking Act of 1933. Many other banks also will have qualified. The aim of the guarantee provision of the act is to insure depositors safety for their funds and to build a sound banking structure under business. The emergency which developed early this year and which reached its peak in the closing of all banks in the United States made it obvious that some-

thing had to be done which would restore the confidence of depositors and at the same time make certain that this confidence is not misplaced. a a a a b a Banks Oppose Permanent Plan Under the guarantee plan—insurance is hardly the proper term for it—each bank participating contributes a percentage of its resources to the Federal Deposit Insurance Guarantee Corporation, which, in turn, guarantees to make good on any losses which might accrue to depositors in any of the banks through bankruptcy or from any other cause. Banks in the Wall Street area, generally speaking, have evidenced their willingness to play along with the government on the temporary guarantee plan, since the amount of the guarantee is limited and the amount they are obliged to contribute to the guarantee fund also is limited. But they are opposed to the permanent plan because the number and amount of assessments to support the guarantee fund is unlimited and because they feel it places a premium on bad banking practice. a a a B a a Might Be Harmful to Depositors The permanent plan has dangerous aspects. In the case of wholesale closings, such as occurred early this year, strong banks would be sacrificed for weak ones. And depositors in the strong institutions might also be hurt,, for their protection would be weakened by each call made upon the bank with which they carried their accounts, and the bank in the end might be forced to the wall, with only frozen assets with which to pay off depositors. But the temporary plan provides a breathing spell during which time congress may find a better way to strengthen the banking system and to provide protection for depositors.

WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, Dec. 30.—Firmness in utilities, wet stocks and a few special issues stood out yesterday in an otherwise lower stock market. Trading was light.

Most dealings were in Consolidated Gas, United Corporation and North American. Dealings and gains were smaller than yesterday. Individual shares to gain included Armour of Illinois preferred, which reached 59%, up 4 Vs ; American Smelting preferred 99%, up 3%; Interborough Rapid Transit 13%, up v 2 and anew 1933 high; National Aviation 10%, up % and anew top, and U. S. Smelting 97%, ex-divi-dend, up 1%. Weakness in Celanese was a feature of the early trading. The stock touched 33%, where it was off 4 points. It rallied slightly from that level.

By Times Special NEW YORK, Dec. 29.—Volume advertising now is regarded as an accurate indicator of general business activity, and on this basis it is evident that a marked expansion of business is under way. November advertising in newspapers, for instance, as reported in Advertising Age, showed a further increase, the figures for seventy leading cities totaling 5.376,000 lines, a gain of 4.2 per cent, compared with the corresponding month of 1932. This followed a gain of 2.2 per cent recorded for October. Automotive advertisers are making the most impressive gains in the volume of newspaper advertising, their record in November climbing to 7,130,000 lines, an increase of 49.4 per cent, compared with November, 1932. General advertising pushed its gains to 12.2 per cent, with a total cf 25,573,000 lines. Retail advertising also showed gains, with financial and classified below last year’s level. Similar trends are being shown in the magazine field. Advertising Age reports ad advertising in 100 leading magazines for December totaled 1,573,000 lines, a gain of 16.6 per cent, compared with the final month of 1932. U. S.

GRAIN MARKET SLIPS DOWN ON WEAKSUPPORT Futures Drop 1 to Over 2 Cents as Sentiment Changes. BY HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Dec 30— Local professionals switched to the selling side yesterday and found support lacking with grain prices on the Board of Trade falling nearly 2 cents from the previous finish at the extreme. At the close wheat futures were 2% to 2% cents lower, corn was I s * to 1% cents lower and oats was off 1 to 1% cents. After the selling movement had run its course trade in the aggregate was light with a fair recovery from the low on a moderate wave of buying toward the close. Country Receipts Light The world's wheat markets will be closed Monday and Liverpool will close both Saturday and Monday. This caused some evening up for the year-end holiday. More of this class of trading is expected tomorrow. On scattered selling and in sympathy with wheat, corn weakened and little attention was paid to the continued light receipts from the country. Cash interests were reported as being moderate buyers of futures early, but. the eastern shipping demand was not inactive. Oats and rye took their cues from other grains. Provisions were somewhat unsettled with lard rallying after an easy start. Scattered selling at the opening forced wheat prices lower and there was little disposition in the way of a rally during the first hour of trading. Local longs were believed to have turned to the selling side. Cash Market Active Predictions by leading brokers were that the market would remain generally dull until after the turn of the year. Liverpool was easy today. Tlie local cash price was 4 to 1 cent lower and receipts were four cars. Corn, followed wheat lower and remained below yesterday’s finish dur ng the early part of the session. About 40,000 bushels were sold in the cash market, but nothing was booked from the country. The cash price was unchanged to 1 cent lower and receipts amounted to 27 cars. Oats were fractionally lower in a very dull market. The cash price was unchanged to % cent lower and receipts were 14 cars. ANNOUNCEMENTS 1 Death Notices ELLIS, MARY A.—Wife of Joseph Ellis, died at St. Francis hospital. Dec. 28.
