ITO the Senate and House of Represen-

Repeated failures of savings banks in
which wage-workers and other small de-
positors We're the sufferers have again
turned the attention of the country
toward methods which will render such
savings absolutely secure.
I'm almost ali civilized countries this
question has been solved By the insutu-
ton of postal savings banks.
1T has been found wherever these are
established they encourage thrift and
economy. they give 10 the common Deo-
pie who make the government custodian
OF their savings greater interest in that
government
In this manner these institutions tend
to make better citizens of those who have
a direct tangible interest in the govern
ment.
Postal banks have been tried for many
years and have proved satisfactory, and
We represent that the United States
should join those countries who have as
sumed the care and safekeeDing Of the
savings of the people as an important and
proper function of government
For these reasons we petition YOU re-
questing that at the coming session of
congress you enact the proper laws for
establishing postal savings banks in the
United States"
