Was Perfected Yesterday and Introduced in
 the Senate by MT. Carter
REFERRED TO PosToFFICE COMMITTEE
What Postofces May be Postal Savings Depositories Deposits will Draw Two Per Cent Interest-Deposits by Married Women in Their Own Names Free from Any Control by Their Husbands

Washington. Jan. 27.-The postal savings bank bill. drafted by Sena- tors.Carters Deliver and Owen, a sub committee of the committee on post off1ces and post roads, was perfected today and by MT Carter was intro duced in the senate It was referred to the postoffice committee and proba- bly will be reported back to the sen ate tomorrow
 The bills originally introduced on this subject were considered with great care and large number of changes were made. Particular at tention was given to a scheme to pre- vent the concentration of postal de- posits in the money centers of the east. This objection to the establishment of postal savings banks has been met by 8 provision allowing banks receiving the postal funds for safe keeping to give indemnity bonds in lieu of collat- eral security, which obviates the ne cessity of banks going to bond centers to purchase the securities required by the government.
 The bill provides that there shall be established a system of postal saw ings Repositories under the supervision and direction of board of trustees, consisting of the secretary of the treas UT the postmaster general and the attorney general acting ex-officio.
 When Deposits May Be Received.
 All postofices of a class authorized to issue money orders and such others as the postmaster general may desig- nate are declared to be postal savings depositories- They are to receive de- posits from the public and are to be kept open for the transaction of bus mess every day, Sunday and legal hol- idays excepted, during the usual post office hours of the town or locality where the Repositories are located.
 It is provided, however, that the postmaster general may limit at first the number of Repositories to money order offices Of the first. second and third classes, and extend the system thereafter as rapidly as practical.
