The district levels are different, as shown in Table 34, yet the years when the ratios are high or low are essentially the same. Is there consistency among the districts in the direction of the changes from year to year? The average change, for all districts combined, was downward each year, as shown in Table 37. All of the separate districts (except Dallas in 1920, as compared with 1919; Chicago in 1922, as compared with 1921; San Francisco in 1923, as compared with 1922; and Atlanta, Chicago, Minneapolis, and Kansas City in 1925 as compared with 1924) register similar year-to-year changes. This marked uniform- ity is in sharp contrast with the TABLE 38 changes from year to year.in the ratios of demand deposits to earning assets. In the latter case, except in 1921 as com- pared with 1920, the direction of change varies among the different districts. Striking asis the fact of down- ward year-to-year changes in all of the districts, as summarized
