McCowan Says Jensen Ruins Tree: The article entitled “A Plea For Saving the Trees," brings to mind the fact that there has been, during the last two years, more trees destroyed in Highland Park under the superin- tendency of Jens Jensen than by all the other people in Highlanu Park put together: If the pure and simple “ig- norance and vandalism" which he characterizes the people who destroy trees can justly he applied to anyone. that one is certainly himself. Until he was ghen charge of rearranging the grounds of Mr. Rosenwald' 5 Highland Park place there was on the northeast corner of Sheridan Road and Roger Williams avenue a grove of Sixth na- tive trees that abound on the North Shore but .iziu‘er his supervision sever» ul acres 41' {nu-so trww‘ Were ripped out to make 11 place for a truck garden and seemingly to further emphasize the “ignorance and vandalism" he <peak< shout and to add insult to an already injured community has a cow and chicken barn erected directly on the corner of Sheridan Road and R03- er. Williams Avenue. and in conse- quence of which the other three corâ€" ners have been ruined for the building of such homes as you expect to see on Sheridan Road corners. I leave it to the people that are acquainted with the work he has done in this commun- ity as to whether the “ignorance and vandalism" of which he speaks does not describe his work better than the work of another.

HIGHLAND PARK BANKS ‘ PROTECT THEMSELVES For the benefit of bank depositors and the public generally, we reprint horry'lh A strong and timely article by Lorene Hector appearing in Tucs- dly’s (hit-go Tribune. 'The Bank- nnd Their Depositor- There are a few plain things which the people who have money in the links, more especially in savings banks. should understand. The banki are uniting 30 and (70 dnys' notice be- fore paying savings deoosits in full as I measure of self-protection and also in the interest of the depmitorn them- selves. It is wrong to think that a Mk (‘In or should ray on domand all the money that it owm dermitors. If it could do that it would he a warehouse and not a bank and would not be able to lend money or to pay interest on iepogits. ()n the contrary. if it were u ware- house the depositor would he required to pay for the privilege of putting his money in a safe place. juxt as he has to pay for the use of a safe deposit 50x. That is the kind of an institu- tion a bank would be if it were in a pOsition to my out at om‘e all the money that it has taken in. Suppose a bank be started and have $1,000,000 deposits. Being a hunk iti undertakes to serve the community by; lending out a hurt of this Sl,000.000.‘> It may lend $750,000 of this sum to; those in need of credit to carry on. business. It accepts the notes of the; borrowers and may also have addi-; tional security. These notes are pre-’ sumed to be as good as the money loaned on them. But when the bank} has loaned $750.0“) of its 31.000.000 deposits to borrowers it has placed the money out of its own rem'h for thirty (luvs. sixty days, ninety days. or pas sibly six months. ' ; That $750.le cannot be returned tn» depositors until it has been paid hark1 m the bank by the borrowers. That ia‘the reason thnt n hank rannnt pay every depositor nu demnnd all the money it owes him. When all the hor- ‘ rowers hm": repaid their loans. then the bunk can pay its di-positnrs in full. The usefulness of u hank lies in its ability to lend to John Jones to help him in his business the money which John Smith does not need in his and h..\' deposited in his hank. The man lay loaned to John Jones luring» in ~lutYicient interest to enable the bank to pay 3 per cent interest on savings‘ deposits. Requiring sixty days' notice before plying om savings deposiu enables a bunk to collect at. least n part of its ouuunding lolmt. But in panicky times the sixty days' notice when I still better purpooe. It in I guarantee that every depotitor will be treated alike.
