ON POSTAL SAVINGS
FREMONT BANKER BEFORE THE
HOUSE COMMITTEE.
SAYS THEY ARE NOT NEEDED
Asserts the Banks, Under Present
Conditions, Can Seldom Charge
More than Legal Interest.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. to postal
savings banks was voiced Wednesday
before the house committee on post
Offices and post roads by representa-
tives of the American Bankers as
ISOLATION. Not only did the speakers
oppose the postal savings bank bill
which recently PASSED the senate, but
they said they opposed the principle
of the government going into the
banking business.

First National bank of Fremont. Neb..
and a member of the executive coun-
Gil of the Bankers association. said
that the establishment of postal saw

Withdrawals of large amounts Of
money from the banks of that state.
seriously upsetting business. There
was no general demand, he thought,
for postals savings banks in his state.
The national and state banks were
able. he said. to take care of all the
banking business there.
The matter Of the security and safe
ty Of the deposits greatly outweighed
the consideration of the interest paid.
said Mr.. Quincy. and il the govern
ment established the postal savings
banks. Offering 2 per cent interest. the
deposits would come to them, even
though the state banks might be Offer
ing or per cent interest. Security
was what the people demanded. he
said.
THE banks are only relatively
SAFE" said Mr.. Quincy. but the gov.
eminent is absolutely safe. because it
has the power of taxation to hack it
up. For that reason the banks can
never compete with the postal saw.
ings banks.
Regardless of the fact. also. that
the pOstOfIice might redeposit the
postal savings with the local bank
the latter is injured because it is de-
prived Of the bushes of many indi-
vidual depositors.
Further. the postal savings bank
deposits would. in a great measure.
come from the banks. The with
drawal Of these deposits would cause
the banks to call some of their loans.

Mr.. Quincy was closely questioned
about the banking business in his
state. He said the legal rate of in
