FINANCIAL-COMMERCIAL BANK'S RELATION TO CUSTOMERS INFLUENCE OF OFFICIALS ON LOCAL INSTITUTIONS Extract from Recent Address of Stod. dard Jess on "Some Hints on Banking and Obligations of the Banker" In the course of his address at the Stat) Bankers' association meeting, held re cently at Santa Barbara, Studdard Jess, vice president of the S*ir»t National bank oi IjOS Angeies, eaid: "The interests of the community, as well as the necessities o£ the customers of the bank, should be considered in tiio use of tlio lunds of the bank, The banker tnat uses the funds ot his batik in a con servative manner in fostering tho devel opment of home Industries, with a desite to promote tho welfare of the community as Well us in meeting Hie needs of his customers by atturdmt; temporary accom modations, and ever ready to discourage wildcat schemes and lank speculation by refusing to allow the use of the fund 3 intrusted to his care for such purposes, lias a proper regum for the duties of hla office and the responsibilities resting up on him; but the banker who freely al lows the use of the funds of ills bank to carry on tne speculations or llinmce tin pet schemes of !:!rr.se!£ or h!9 friends, has a wrong estimate of tho requirements of his position and is Inviting trouble that sooner or later will be likely to overtake him. "Banks should be officered by men free from entangling alliances; and to war rant the Beiuction of a man as a bank officer, one price demanded of him nhoul'l be that he withdraw from all other acti vities, thus removing many temptations that might come to him to use the bank s lunds in nls own personal interests and in an improper manner. l)y becoming, In a way, the financial agenis of the peo ple, bankers assume Die responsibility of attempting to regulate the use of money, and should always feel called upon to exert their inlluenco to tho utmost to check wrong upeculatlvo tendencies and an undue usu of money in any direction. The true banker Is a pessimist when all others are optimists, and immediately changes to an optimist when others be come pessimistic In their views, thus ful filling the mission of a balanco wheel to prevent any movement from going too far In one direction."

CHICAGO GRAIN MARkET Wheat Prices Decline Two Cents, Owing to Heavy Sales Due to Warm Weather By Associated Press. . , ■.; i. CHICAGO, June I.— Wheat prices on the local exchange declined nearly sic per bushel today becausa of selling brougnt out by. prospects of warmer weather for the United States and Canada. At the close the July delivery showed a net loss olo l l»/ii&l%c. September Wan down Wl'nC. July corn was off 14c. Oats were Vie lower and provisions lw&l2Hp to 30c lower. Weather conditions in America were the dominating inlluence with wheat traders today, the situation in Europe being (temporarily relegated to the back ground. Tne wen..ier bureau reported general rains in Kansas, Nebraska, lowa, Missouri and Illinois, with higher ter n in Minnesota, the'Dakotas and the Canadian northwest. A general bulle tin issued from Washington also pre dicted that beginning next week the coun try in general would experience much warmer weatner. These were the influ ences that Inspired the selling move ment. ' Although commission houses were fairly active buyers early In the day, the demand from that source was light, it v.as claimed that fewer buying orders were in the hands of the leading commis sion houses tnan at any time since wheat touched the magical "dollar" mark. Throughout the day pit traders and small holders hammered tne wheat and prices steadily declined. The market closed weak with prices only a trille above the lowest point of the session. July opened a snade to V«<S"?BC higher at 9<4<&!i9V4c, sold off to 97% c and closed nt 9 7% c. September opened a shade lower to a shade higher .it $1.00%(T.1.00%. sold r.t $1.01 and then declined to 99% c. Final quotations were at D9%c. The corn market was weakened to a slight extent by the breeak In wheat prices. Trading, however, was very quiet. Country offerings over night were reported as being more liberal, but they were still considerably below the normal for this seaso nof the year. Cash corn was again In active demand by eastern shippers and this tended to steady the market for options. The close was easy. July opened $0 %c higher at 54@54>ic, sold off to 6b-Ac and closed nt 63% c. Realizing sales by leading longs caused weakness-Jn the oats market. The Im proved ■v^Bther conditions and the slump in wheat wore the main reasons for the selling pressure. July displayed some firmness early in the day but finally yielded to the general beariohneKs. July opened '.fi(ff%c higher at 49%@49%c, sola eft to 48% c and closed nt 49c. Provisions were affected by the weak ness of grain and ruled weak tho entire session. Local packers were the prin cipal sellers, while the buying was- scat tered. At the close July pork was down SO cents to fit). 2o. I.arr) was oft MX&ISMo at f9.17^.

PRICE OF STOCKS STILL SAGGING PRESIDENT'S SPEECH HAS CONTINUED EFFECT Revision of Opinion on Market Re garding Reeult of Roosevelt's Ad dress — No Decision as to Withdrawal of Gold By Associated Press. NEW YORK, June I.— Prices of stocks continued today the sagging movement which set In during the session yesterday. Tho movement seemed due as much *» anything to the conviction that substan tial demand for securities had resulted from the bear sentiment said to be pro duced by President Moosevelt'a Decoration day speech. In fact the tone of comment in soma of the intluentlal llnancial reviews in duced somo revision ot opinion in stock market circles as to the effects to be ex pected from the address. Some of the early selling also was In anticipation uf the unfavorable character of the bank statement. The lar«;e loan expansion shown by the_.banks was tho chief factor in causing the reduction of the surplus I turn. Preparation for tho month and require ments and the added obligation of pay ment'of a 15 per cent Installment of guo scrlptions for new St. Paul Btock Were the lnlluences responsible, for the loan expansion. Tho gain of nearly a million in the cash item Was In comparison with an expected decrease. Discounts In Lon don declined with the turn of the month, but foreign exchange here held steady ond the question of further gold exports next week Is loft open. The question of a withdrawal of gov ernment deposits from the banks during Jime to provide for the July 1 redemption of. about $40,00U,000 4 per cent bonds wns undecided by any announcement from the treasury department. Borne of tho doubt ful speculative tone was clue to the con tents of the mercantile revlewS pointing out a slow distribution of spring and summer goods and operations for the fall and winter as being more conspicu ous addition to the showing of net earn ings for April were made In reports by the t T r.!or. Pacific and the Louisville & Nashville. There was some covering" by shorts after tne appearance of tho bank statement, but tho resulting rallies were feeble nnd not well held.
