BANK EXAMINER REPORTS
IMPROVEMENT IN STATES
Conditions, generally speaking, are
improving in the States, according
to H. F. Brewer, federal bank ex
aminer, who arrived on the steamer
Yukon this morning, accompanied by
Mrs. Brewer, enroute to Fairbanks
to look over the affairs of the First
National Bank. The enactment of
the emergency tariff law. Mr. Brewer
says, has resulted in creating a
market for raw material, particularly
wool, cotton and cattle, and about
all that h needed now to bring
conditions back to normal is for
the retailers of the country to make
up their minds to take losses on
their stocks which were purchased
during the high-price era. Many of
the larger concerns have already
done this and their action, it is
believed, will force others to fol
low their example. When the price
lowering becomes general, the public
will begin buying again and the re
sult will be a speedy return to nor
mal conditions.
The price of wool, ' cotton and
other raw materials has reached a
normal level, Mr. Brewer says—not
too high and not too low. Just
about where it should be to permit
a reasonable margin of profit.
Before the adoption of the new
tariff, foreign wool and beef were
sold on the American market at
prices that entirely excluded Ameri
can products from competition. The
object of selling so cheaply, Mr.
Brewer explains, was to drive Ameri
cans out of the market so that
foreign shippers might have a free
hand, with the ultimate aim of
boosting prices.
One of the big handicaps under
which the country is laboring at
present, Mr. Brewer states, is ex
cessive transportation charges for
both passengers and freight. The
freight rates in many instances are
prohibitive, and the fares so high
that traveling has been reduced to
£ minimum. Many people, who
would travel under normal condi
tions. cannot afford to do so now.
and the result is that many of the
cars are almost empty. Mr. Brewer
says he was the only occupant of
a Pullman coach over a long stretch
of road, on his recent trip to the
Pacific coast. And there were not
more than 30 passengers on the en
tire train.
Questioned regarding the present
status^ of the Scandinavian Ameri
can Bank of Seattle, the examiner
I
said the institution is very much
involved, according to reports, and
the outlook is not very encouraging
for depositors.
It is the belief of Mr. Brewer
that Interior Alaska is not getting
the tourist travel that it should.
He says there were a considerable
number of passengers on his boat
who would have made the trip down
the Yukon and up the Tanana had
they known, in advance that such a
trip could be made in comfort and
in reasonable time. When tourists
reach the Alaska coast, they are
ignorant regarding transportation
conditions in the Interior, and there
does not appear to be any one to
enlighten them. Mr. Brewer be
lieves thousands of Outsiders wouid
visit Tanana valley during the sum
mer if they knew more aboute
Interior routes and traveling con
ditions.
Mr. Brewer is accompanied by
his wife and it is probable that they
will return to the coast by the river
route when his business has been
concluded at Fairbanks.
