BUILDING AND LOAN SOCIETIES.

The San Francisco Examiner is
making an expose Of the Building and
Loan Societies. There are several
doing business in this State and they
pay no taxes, fees or license.
Here is what the Examiner has to
say:
The Continental Building and Loan
Association has standing reply to
the complaints that have been made OF
the corporations methods and the
rascalities of the management. '"The
association is solvent" is the reply,
and it is expected to cover multitude
Of sins.
The solvency of the Continental has
has not been in question. The point
at issue has been whether the associa-
ton is under the management Of q
man who has embezzled $2O7, 900 or
of the associations assets. and may
thus be credited with the disposition
The claim Of solvency may DO per-
to repeat the operation. 4. AZ
fectly correct. But II correct, It 10
pertinent to inquire how that solvency
is attained. "The Examiner has been
furnishing few facts bearing on that
which will bear recalling.
F. X. Weeks of Whitaker. paid to
the Continental in fifty-three months
at SIS per month, The sum total OF
$795. When he withdrew he received
$73S.05. II he had put his money In a
stocking he would have been bette.
OF by $685..
Miss Mary D. Mcclure Of Orange
paid in fffty-three months the sum Of
$63S, and was paid on withdrawal but
$3.50.
Mr.. Lupton, the Santa Fe agent 81
Bakersfield, paid in $3.50 and had but
$125 coming to him on withdrawal.
C. v. Rowe, accountant, investigat
ed the complaint of client that h
had borrowed $1,000 form the associa
ton on the agents representation tina
the payment of $54 a month for sever
years would wipe out the loan. A
the end. of seven years the borrowel
found that he still owed the associa
tion$1 $40, although he had paid -,
872. On the figures of the association
the accountant found that the rate o
interest netted by the association OF
this loan was 16 per cent year.
T. H. Tappendorff Of Scotia, Cal
paid 1920 into the association, wal
induced to transfer his interest to thu
Ensured stock" under the syseten
adopted by the association, and wher
he wished to withdraw was informed
that he was indebted to the corpora
ton to the extent of 81.
These Instances can be multiplied
in to the hundreds by any one who ha'
time to listen to the complaints of thu
shareholders of the Continental, or the
other so-called Nationals" They ar
but typical of what is going on ever.

information. In every Mediterran-
can port, and even in the leading
capitals Of the Christian world, Ell
Senussi has his spies and ministers.
In this worldwide brotherhood Of
slaughter all men are equal, yet i'm
plicit obedience is demanded toward
superiors. There is a strange code
of secret words and signs, and the
hhuan or brethren arrend local con-
ferences, make pilgrimages to the
Senussi converts and pay into the
grand treasury 21a per cent of their
worldly wealth if this exceeds s21,
which is the amount of exemption.
The poorer classes are permitted To
contribute in kind or give their ser
vices as labor4rs in desert cases or

purpose of proclaiming the Jehad In
1881 by the insurrection in Upper
Egypt. His plan was to assail Great
Britain and France in Africa from a
hundred points, using the great
deserts of the north, the vast jungles
OF the west, and the unknown coun-
try about Lake Tchad as so many
ip' sgnable fortresses against which
a ne armies of Europe would hurl
themselves in vain.

his followers. At Jerebub, the late
capital of El Senussi, 1000 students

convent with d view to their becom-

and factories for arms and ammuni-

The mysterious one, while in resi-

in case instant flight should be
necessary. For after all the Holy
City was only $50 miles from the
Mediterranean, and the hated Eng
lish in Egypt and the French in
Tunis menaced the heart of the
brotherhood. Therefore, five or six
years ago FL Senussi betook himself
TO the oasis OF Kufra, where In the
town of Joffo he may educate and
arm his disciples and accumulate
vast stores of small arms. artillery
and ammunition without interference

Sidi Mohammed Ben Ali Ell Senus-

taganem, in Algeria, in 1910. He be-
came a lawyer, but his fearless
speech brought him into conflict
with the Turkish authorities, and
they banished him to Morocco for
seven years. Here he studied re-
ligion, and on returning to Algeria
began TO spread the new faith. both
there and in Egypt. Orthodox Mo-
hammedan leaders, however, founc
him so Objectionable that they con-
spired together and tried TO poison
him He fed to Mecca, and there
so impressed the Shadli teachers
with his zeal and ability that on the
high priests death Sidi Senussi was
appointed his successor.
He next went on missionary tour
throughout Arabia and Yemen and
secured a powerful following among
the fanatical Wahabis, who have for
generations been a thorn in the side
of Turkish Sultans. Trying TO set

by the wisdom md craftsmanship
