SAVINGS BANKS VS.. LIFE
INSURANCE cos.

In Mr.. Brandel'e address to the Com
mercial Club of Boston occurs the fol-
lowing passage re ating to the manage
ment of savings banks and life compa
MES:
Compare these huge life insurance
companies charges for managing saw
| ings, with the cost of running the Massa-
I chusetts savings banks. There are in
Massachusetts 1873 savings banks under
the management of probably about
5000 different individuals acting ss
trustees without compensation. AT the
close of the financial year, October 81,
| 1904, these banks held assets aggregat-
my 1914 GA 800, more than half the
aggregate held by the three largest life
! insurance companies of the world.
There had been deposited in these 1873
savings banks during the year ending
October 81, 1904, $l05.466, l48, an
amount exceeding half the aggregate
of the year 8 premiums of these three
com panies. S20S, 1872 5l1. The aggregate
expense o. taking care of the business
of these 1873 savings banks for the year
1904 was 81 $40 904 or less than one
thlrtieth OF the aggregate expense OF
these three insurance companies, $49,-
l06 800 for the year.
ITO manage the 1873 Massachusetts
savings banks cost 23 100 of | per cent
of the average assets held during the
year, or but lac per cent of the year 8
deposits. To manage the three large
life insurance companies cost 81 per
cent of their aggregate assets and % 81
per cent of the years premium income
That is, the pro rata cost OF taking care
of savings invested in these three insu
rance companies was seventeen times as
great as the expense of caring for say
mgs invested in our 1888 savings banks. |

by these two classes Of savings institu-
tons. The high salaried insurance man.

 And the Hudson Bay company has twentieth part of all this vast region.
 Already 4.O0O,OOO acres have been al- lotted to the company. which still has 5000, ,0O0 acres to select. During the years 1908 and 1904 the company sold 1SO.0O0 acres at an average price of s7 per acre. Since that time it has become certain that the great railroad from the Atlantic to the Pacific will be built, and the value of the com pany's property has increased accord ingly, until now the stock Is held at roo per cent premium. It is freely held at $500. a premium of 1000 per cent, and the possibilities of the new region make the prediction seem not extraordinary.
