BANKING STANDARDS decide as between loans and investments in the use of banking resources. There is another approach which is of interest in studying the ratios of loans and discounts to earning assets for the banks in the different districts during this series of years. The foregoing discussion was concerned with (1) the amounts themselves, (2) the variations from the district averages, and (3) the percentage changes from year to year. Attention is now directed to the posi- tions which the several district ratios each year hold relative to the yearly average for the country as a whole. The differences by amounts and signs are shown for the country as a whole in Table 10. How are these details to be summarized and interpreted?

But in how many of the separate years do the districts hold a given position? The answer to this question is found in Table 11. From this table, consistency is apparent, the districts tending un- mistakably to hold a given position during the entire period. In none of them does there tend to be a chance—fifty-fifty—be- havior. Moreover, those which are above, as those which are be- low, tend to be contiguous.
