New Zealand Savings Banks

Consul General w. A. Prickitt, writ
ing from Auckland on the operations of
the government postal savings banks
in New Zealand, calls attention to their
wide use by the people, as follows:
One of the greatest aids TO the finan-
cial power of France, with its annual
investing surplus of $3.50, 600 to
S5O0OOO,0 600, is the facility with which
its people can invest their small saw
ings with absolute security. The gov
eminent system of postal savings
banks enables investors TO deposit
small sums in the postoffice, upon
which they draw interest, with the
right to withdraw them at will
New Zealand is a young country, but
il has adopted this system, with the
most gratifying success. Postal saw
ings banks. were established by the
colonial government in 1867. On Dec.
81, 1906, there were $40 postoffiees open
for the transaction of savings bank
business, with 29S.746 accounts, cover
ing a total deposit of s4S, 1926. an

he may easily discover, are applied to
that perennial theme of ribald song
and revolutionary speech, the iceman.
The iceman has just drawn down
fresh torrents of wrath upon his head

to sell ice at a reasonable figure. And
from small rivals he has nothing TO

But it is darkest before the dawn. A
German has discovered an avenue of
escape from the iceman. Like many
great discoveries, this one is so simple
