He felt, however, that\nit was not; intended as a compliment to .\nhimself, but rather as a compliment to\nthe great Conservative leader, Hon.

The newspapers are\nso filled with accounts of purchases and\namalgamations, and the size of our\nmajor banks'is so fully dwelt upon that\nthe importance and magnitude of similar concerns in other parts of the\nEnglish-speaking world are but scantily\nrealized. A recent compilation by the\nCalifornia Bank of Los Angeles of one\nhundred and fifty of the largest American, British,' colonial and dominion\nbanks is striking evidence of the banking power of these countries.\nNinety American.banks have somewhat more than nineteen billion dollars\non deposit, whereas only sixty banks in\nthe British Commonwealth of Nations\nhave more than eighteen and a half\nbillions. The five largest banks are all\nlocated in London. Of the five which\n-come next, one is the Royal Bank of\nCanada and another is the Federal\nReserve Bank of New York; In other\nwords, if this semigovernment institution be left out, we have only three in\nthe first ten.\n; Eleventh in rank is the Bank of\nMontreal, and twelfth is the Bank of\nEngland.
