Dear Editor:
As an Accountant I have read with interest for many years the pub-
lished Balance Sheets or Statements of Condition of our New York Banks
that have appeared in the( local Newspapers from time to time.
Unwittingly, perhaps, they have all been in error.
Pick up any bank statement published'in the last week or two. Note the
first part or left hand side called Assets or Resources. That is absolutely cor-
rect.
The second part or right hand side, called Liabilities is the item that is
in error. Read carefully the items in the column called Liabilities and note
that there is included Capital Stock Issued, Surplus and Undivided Profits.
These three items are not Liabilities. They are the Bank's Capital or
Margin of Safety.
