POSTAL SAVINGS

uCpoito III a kOodl savings uHHk
shall be exempt from demand, gar
nishment. execution, sellers or
detention under any legal process
against the depositor thereof.
Such funds shall not be subject to
taxation by the United States, or
any state, and no person connected
with the postoffice department
shall disclose to any person other
than the deposltor the amount of
his or her deposit, unless directed
to do 30 by the postmaster general
There is some objection to this
provision by the creditor class.
They say This Is not the kind of
protection the merchants of the
country are looking for"
This is short-sighted view to
take of the matter. AS a general
proposition large per cent of
bank deposits now escape taxation
and the taxes fall more heavily on
the poor than on the rich
Again, the object of the postal
savings bank is to encourage the
wage Garner to save some of his
earnings. In New England, few
years ago, a poor debtor could be
arrested and thrown into prison
for a debt of so or $50. This law
encouraged merchants to trust
men who could not otherwise oh.
tain credit. In some states in the
South there are practically no laws
to enforce collections on an &C
count. There man is credited
solely upon his honor and debts
are more promptly paid than I'M
der duress.
Whenever a young man begins
to save something from his earn
ings the habit of saving is stimu-
lated much to his success in life.
We say by all means encourage
the wage Garner and the poor man
to save his money and thus get
start in the world. Not only
should his small savings be made
secure, but the little cottage in
which he lives should be exempt
from taxation To a reasonable
amount.
