Meyer Tackles Bryan Deposit Guarantee Debate
Postmaster General George von L Meyer warns that Bryan’s plan for compulsory national bank deposits resembles a costly insurance scheme that would force conservative banks to cover mismanaged rivals. He argues postal savings banks are safer and cites risks of future losses and market manipulation under a universal guarantee. Meyer also notes Taft's team fears Bryan’s proposal may be a campaign pivotal issue. Gov Magoon of Cuba visits Taft to discuss evacuation plans and public utilities sentiment.

Short interest rose, enabling a sharp decline then partial recovery as traders covered positions. Analysts cite easy money and uncertain business prospects, with rail earnings boosted by grain movement but overall demand weak and dividends potentially cut.
