Our 37th Tear I Eleanore • Mwlene jU COME A LONG WAY SINCE 1863 In 1863, penrand-ink record* --today, automation. In 1863, Abraham Lincoln signed into law a bill which has proved indeed meaningful to the Nation ... the National Currency Act It established a national currency; and Federally-chartered banks, to take their place beside the existing state-chartered banks. If Lincoln had been able to look ahead 100 years and see the far* reaching results, this is what he would have seen: The U.S. public receiving more than $450 billion per year in personal income; its communities with over 100,000 schools; its citizens owning more than 70 million automobiles. This flourish* ing state of affairs owes a great deal to the standardization of the currency. | And he would have seen one commercial bank office for every 7,000 persons; 90% of all payments made with bank checks; individual commercial bank savings of about $70 billion; com* mercial banks having some $130 billion in loans outstanding. A vastly different type of bank building and equipment Instead of pen-and-ink records--automation. New concepts ... new and expanded banking services that keep pace with the needs of a for* ward-looking nation--all these developed because the dual banking system of 1863 sparked t (rowing era of competition in the banking field. The evolution of this picture through years of work and study em- . phasizes commercial banking's unremitting drive to better its best ., # ^ to provide the fullest measure of omaptoie banking service.
