III ASHINGTON.--M than 9,000,-
w 900 depositors in the savings
banks Of the Unitsd States hold over
$4,O0O,000,00O. In the last year the
number of SAVINGS bank depositors
has increased over 100000. The total
amount of their deposits has risen
1857 100000 in twelve months. The
average amount of every depositor's
account is $445, which is nearly SIS
more than the average the year be-
fore.
1t is certain that not less than $6,-
100000 10 bank deposits can fairly
be counted as savings. The national
banks hold about $SQ0,000,000 of such
deposits. The trust companies have
about $7Oo,0O0,O0O in savings accounts.
The state banks hold over $500 900
600 on savings bank conditions. Total
savings deposits of the country can
not fall under $4,000, 100000. There
are more than 100000 separate
accounts in that imIlense sum.
The contrast between these figures
and the statistics which measure the
savings of other countries is proof of
the difference between tho ability to
save aud the wide diffusion of pros
perity in the United States and the
conditions in foreign lands.
In Germany, for instance, there are
more than 100000 savings accounts,
but the total amount represented by
that multitude of deposits is only
about $3,4OO,OO00O0, or little more
than half of the savings deposits in
American banks. The United King

lation as that of the United States.
has about 100000 savings accounts.
including postal savings banks, Of
course, but the deposits amount to
only about $1,000, 100000, or 16 per
cent. of the American total.
Austria and Hungary together have
about $1,600,000,000 in savings de-
posts owned by nearly 100000 de-
positors. Italy stands high in the
number of savings accounts, with T.
100000 of them, in round figures, but
low in the total amount of the de-
posits, which are under 100000, 1000.
Japan is a marvel in respect to the
wide use of savings banks, including
government, but the amount of the
deposits is very small in proportion
to the multitude of accounts.
When comparisons are made with
newer countries, such as Canada and
Australia, which have natural advan-
tages similar to those enjoyed in the
United States, the contrast becomes
less, but the differences are never
theless great. In Canada the total
amount deposited as savings is about
$3.50, 100000, and the accounts are
about 100000.
In Australia there are about 1900
600 savings accounts, which beats the
American record, relatively to the
number of inhabitants, but the aver
age amount on deposit is only about
$170, which is about one-third of the
American average. New Zealand is
almost exactly like Australia in re-
spect to these conditions.
In the light of such facts the earn.
ing power and the saving power OF
the masses in the United States, not,
withstanding the high cost of living,
is clearly greater than ever before,
and also greater than it is in any
other country.

Harem Refugee Goes Back to Turkey

AS Miss Baherion talked her voice

Armenian faith, she had been convert

my father went about among his
people trying to convert them. He
was warned to STOP He refused to
heed the warnings. He must show his
people the light. He was imprisoned
at Alexandria,, near Constantinople.
Soon after my father had been ia,
ken from us my mother learned from
friends that wealthy Turk wanted
me to join his harem. My mother re-
fused to treat with him and he finally
laid a trap to kidnap me. Warned in
time, l remained prisoner in my
own home.
Finally Doctor George advised my
mother to send me to America. Dis

palmy days when she and Henry Irv-

of the Pan-American conference the
great tide of travel both for tourists
and commerce will flow in increasing

unprecedented opportunities; Rio de

wealth and luxury. The most beauti-

of its attractions. Rio is a surprising
ly perfect replica of Paris, with its
great boulevard and theaters surpass-
ing any in the United States. Some
100000 have been spent in beauti-
flying its harbor.

Doctor Wiley has announced himself
as a believer in the doctrine that it
is better to have few boys killed at

Wiley, Is essential to the upbringing

PLAN MERGER OF ALL SPORTS
College Coaches Will Discuss Forma-

ing In New York.

New football, summer baseball for
collegians and the advisability of form.
Ing athletic leagues among the colleges
and universities in certain parts of the
country are among the important sub.
Jects which will come up for discus
sion at the fifth annual convention of
the intercollegiate Athletic association
OF the United States, to be held in
New York December 20. A proposition
to change the name of the body to
the National Collegiate Athletic asso-
citation will also be considered.
Seventy-two universities and col
leges, representing more than 100000
students, are members of the Intercol,
legiate association. 1t is expected that
this number will be greatly Increased
at the December convention.
Capt. Palmer e. Pierce, president of
the association, in his call for the
meeting, speaks Of the new football
rules thus:
The new rules are undergoing a
crucial test on the gridirons OF our col
lege Fairgrounds. 1t Is too early to
say, perhaps, whether they succeed
ed. 1t is urged upon all that the rules
be given fair trial. This can be Sc
cured only by the students being re-
quired to play under them strictly and
the officials to enforce them impartial
ly in contests. The governing bodies
of academic institutions should pre-
vent any evasions."
Another subject mentioned in the cir.
cular include the following:
The summer baseball question is
still with us. Is any practical progress
toward the proper solution Of this
problem being made?

- OUTH AMERICA is being rapid
ly Americanized. Dating from
the Pan-American conference at
~ Buenos AyreS new era is
opening in relation to the two
great continents of the western hemi-
sphere. Definite plans have been
agreed upon to bring both shores of
South America in direct, continuous
communication with the United States.
Through an international agreement it
is purposed to link together the great
ports in regular system of commu-
nication, forming an unbroken chain
for commercial interchange from Port
land, Me-, southwark around Cape Horn
and northward to Seattle. To create
this new trade all governments con-
cerned are to work in harmony, direct
banking and able service will be es-
tablished, and common system of
weights and measures adopted to avoid
all loss of time in handling freight,
mail and passengers.
In this conference the United States
has naturally been a predominating
factor. Lewis Nixon of New York
served as chairman of the committee
on ocean communication. which framed
the most important recommendations
Henry White, former American am
bassador to Italy, also attended, while
Europe was represented by such dis
tinguished international figures as M.
Clemenceau, the former French pre-
mier, and Enrich Ferri of the Italian
chamber of deputies.
1t is not generally realized that one
fifteenth of the railroad mileage of
the world, or 10000 miles, stretch
across South America, which places
it fourth among the worlds continents
in railroad development The dream,
once so fantastic, of continuous rail-
road from New York, for instance, to
Buenos Ayres, is in fair way to be
realized. The longitudinal route from
Panama to the Straits of Magellan has
been half built in Chill and Peru and
three-tenths of the distance to be trav-
ersed in Argentina. The first trans
continental railroad of South America
is already revolutionizing her trade
routes, is SSS miles in length, and by
piercing the Andes connects Buenos
Ayres on the east with VALPARAISO
on the west. The trip around the
Horn" between these two ports takes
10 or II days through the Straits of
Magellan.
