States, place Omaha In the. atrip' where
business is riormaL
Omaha banker: believe that. the clear
ings for this .year Jn, .Pmha are lkely
to break all previous records. This opin
ion they base on th,. increoso, already
ehbwtt for the first eight months of .the
year. ..The year 19tl. now stands out Iri
the history ..of . Qrnaha banking,. ..as .the.
highest tecord, reached. ... :
In spite of the currency bill conttn,
gency, which la supposed to affect busi
ness and banking, the Omaha banks ari
morliig right "along .andbustnesa Is good
with them, Bdnliers are .watching 'the
currency blfy wlUi",great Interest, how
over, and ' aYe erJctaus abouV the
provisions It shall tlb$lfy contain.
Sixty or ninety days ago tu'erb was'
considerable talk among the bankers of
the country about money stringency, but
the only local effect Was1 a little brisk
ness on tho part 6f the banks in hustling
the 'collection of old notes. This resulted
In a cleaning up of a lot of old business
that leaves the banks' or Omaha ready
to' scr into the winter In iood shape.
They have been preparing for the" pas.
sage of the currency bllt, which Is ex.
pec'ted 'to take some ot the money away
from the" local banks. They are carrying
large "cash means" In Chicago,' New
York and other- eastern points that can
readliy be converted Into cashIrt twenty
four hours' notice. Th'ose eastern bal
ances aro being held up hlgli 1n order
that 'the banks may' be In thd- best posi
slble shape hero to tako caro of what
business -comes this' winter without any
dijngei' of shortage under1 any circum
stances. Federal Money Cotntnsr.
Thun. tn the 11,300.000 Is coming from
tho federal treasury as o loan with which
ttys Nebraska banks are to handle the
state crops. This money represents only
fraction of the "amount required an
nually from the Nebraska banks to move
thOvcrops of ihla section. It will help In
that It, will, provide a surplus to such an
extent that there will bo an abundance
of money for orop moving activities.
Aa a- matter faot several' banker
Here have said that the Omaha banks do
not really need this moneyr but that theyi
are taking it since It was apportioned
them. They, have asked that It be not
eettt to -NebraskauntlMn- October, a they
hays no- peselble. uee for It earlier than
that ,
