^ BANK REPORTS
BUENOS AIRES, Aug. 21 (by As
sociated Press).—Increased prosper
ity this year in comparison with
1919 is indicated by banking and
railroad statistics of Argentina which
have just been published. Official
banking reports show that between
May 31, 1919 and the same date this
year deposits increased 21 per cent,
loans and discounts 12 per cent and
balances on hand, 40 per cent.
Of the 22,141 miles of railroad in
the country only one group of 1,188
miles has failed to show increased
aggregate receipts, according to a
table compiled by the Review of the
f River Plate, showing conditions for
the present year. The remaining
lines have all had substantial in
creases. All railroads in Uruguay and
Paraguay and all tram lines in Ar
gentina have also shown increases.
Most folks expect their friends to
do too much for them.
