that the period of actual absence under
this resolution shall not be deducted from

rncreased Bank peposIts.

An increase of nearly 5000. 900 IN
the savings banks deposits in this state
during the first six months Of the pres
ent year has naturally been a matter
Of considerable favorable comment
among the newspapers.
This great gain has been attributed
largely to the removal Of the tax limit
on deposits in the banks. SO far a.
this increase in deposits comes through
the return Of money which has been hid
den outside OF the state 70 escape taxa
tion. Vermont is the gamer, because the
banks win pay tax OF seven.tenths Of
one per cent. into the state treasury.
Whatever part Of this increase repre-
sents the savings OF the people is also
a matter Of still greater satisfaction,
because the latter represents the par
ticular functions Of savings insfitu.
tion, and its really great public worth.
Insofar. however, as the removal Of
the tax limit on deposits has induced
the withdrawal Of money, which previ-
ously circulated in local business chan
nels for the purpose Of deposit, It in
banks where four per cent. interest with
out taxation is. better than six per cent.
subject to local taxes, II can hardly be
regarded as advantageous.
There is suspicion, somewhat war.
ranted, that a portion at least Of this
remarkable increase in deposits is due
TO this cause. In quite large number
Of towns where local taxes are high.
there was this year an alarming decrease
in the personal property list subject to
taxation. OF course il Il not now pcs
sible to tell with certainty how much
of this decrease was due to transfer
to savings hank accounts.
1t ia possible that the commission
now investigating the tau question may
be able To throw some light On the sub
jcct. The News respectfully suggests
that IL is o matter which this able board
would do well to enquire into with great
care. The farmer, the manufacturer, the
merchant, the small home owner and
everyone else whose capital II Of neces-
sity In sight, will heartily protest
against any law which is found to still
further shoulder the burden Of local tax
alton upon them.
Ii strikes the News that ii Il very
important to learn where the large in
crease in deposits in savings banks comes
from before the new law. doing away
with the tax limit Is pronounced such
success as to Justify Its continuance,
