Outside Nevada county, in ‘United States...... 2.50 ; We know what master laid théy keel, L My What workmen wrought thy ribs of steel, EXTRAVAGANT USE OF WATER (BY CITY ENGINEER UREN) Nevada City is more extravagant in the use of water than any listed city in the United States. We are using at the present time sixty inches of water. Assuming’ our population to be 2000, this means that for every man, woman and child there is being used over 480 gallons of water daily, or enough to fill an ordinary bath tub eight times. And this is, or should be, the most economical time ‘of the year. There is no garden irrigation; the weather is not cold enough to let the faucets run at-night in order to ‘prevent freezing, and yet we are using more than eight times the water consumed by the pro rata population of either Saint Paul or Minneapolis. ae If we take a list of thirty American cities we will find that the average daily consumption is . 22 gallons per person. We are using four times that. And so we are faced with the fact that through leaky taps broken pipes and the careless use of water we are using fully three times as much as is riecessary for ordinary domestic purposes. This may not seem so improvident at this season of the year when we ordinarily have an abundance of free water on the south side, but as a matter of fact we were buying thirty inches of water last week on the north side at a cost of $4.80 per day, which could just as well have been saved. We were getting thirty five inches of free water from our south side supply last week, or more than enough for the city’s needs if all waste were stopped, CONFIDENCE RETURNING . If a certain maker of a certain popular car had consulted a representative group of, car buyers a good many years ago, he would have been forced to turn out a better car, probably for the same money. The rattles that once marred the joy of riding could have been eliminated. The confidence o: car buyers, who always had an uneasy feeling, after having driven a few, thousand miles that they were dropping parts alone th4 wou not have suffered. The car no longer has this undesirable attribute. The cars are now well screwed and bolted together, but the prejudice of thousands of users still accrues to the detriment of this particuIn the mean time many cars without rattles lar automobile. } attl have come into competition with the car that once rattled. An immense business has been seveley dented. All of which would not have happened had the master mind at the head of the concern deigned to consult the humble owners of some of his cars. Confidence is returning to this car. Gradually the memory of the rattles is abating. The car maker has probably learned his lesson, though it cost him untold millions in the learning. And thus with*the banks. In our modern conception of business we. have overlooked the functional differences that mark one business off from another. The competition among banks for business became gradually a competition between banks and other businesses. In such minor matters as drawing up wills, the banks competed with the legal profession. They entered the business of selling stocks and bonds in competition with brokerage houses. They became executors of estates. And, in prosperous times, in their manifold: functions, they made money. But the fundamental function that banks serve is to keep safely the money that depositors leave in their care. To permit them to make a reasonable profit in performing this service, the laws of the country specially favor them. When, however, competition among banks and between banks and other corporations becomes so keen as to involve a risk of the depositors money, we have the present condition. the banks afford. We have today a government, which, in far as it affects banks, is a dictatorship. The banks are closed though the orThe President is clothed by Congress Hoarders are to be fined unless they return to the banks all the gold or der of the President. with war time powers to deal with this*emergency. gold certificates they have withdrawn.

However, in time of war the government can and does assume complete power over not only property but the lives of citizens, drafting young men to fight, hazarding their lives for the defense of their country. Thus, so far.as constitutional rights are concerned in this emergency, no one can plead them who is ordered to return to the banks gold or gold certificates. This drastic step can only be justified by subsequent action to make the banks safe for depositors. If, for instance, the government should, after forcing gold hoarders to deposit their hoards in the banks, fail to make those banks safe for depositors, it will have made conditions far worse than they were before. Confidence can be restored in banks only.so far as the government clips from the banks all those functions which have no direct connection with the primary service of keeping safely the money of depositors. This process of stripping from banks such adventitious activities as supplying call money for speculative purposes, handling and selling foreign and domestic bond issues, many of them of highly speculative character, has already begun. The public mind on this aspect of banking activity is well reflected in the bills sponsored by Senator Carter Glass and enacted by Congress, ; In time, and perhaps sooner than most of us suspect, the banks will be purged of their non-banking activities, and it may be, made as safe for the depositor, as the banks of Canada, France and England now are. In other words the rattles that presage ultimate dissolution will have been eliminated, and the people may again go about their affairs assured of safety for their savings.
