POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS SUCCESS.
Full.

Those who opposed postal savings
banks advanced the argument that
they would defect money from tn
usual channels of trade and tend to re-
strict circulation, but in behalf of the
banks it was claimed that they would
attract as depositors persons accus-
toned to boarding their savings and
many foreigners who had learned IN
their native land to trust the govern
ment repositories and who, in the al
sence of such institutions in this coun-
try, had been sending their savings
abroad for safe keeping.
Under the law passed by Congress
the Postoffice Department establishes
forty-eight postal savings banks, all
in the smaller towns and cities These
have just completed their first months
operations and the results are said to
be highly satisfactory So we'll pleas
ed is Postmaster General Hitchcock
that he is quoted as saying that if he
had the necessary funds he would at
once establish five hundred additional
banks throughout the United States.
The total amount deposited in the
forty-eight banks during the past
month was, in round numbers, 100000
or an average of $1,000 each, which is
said to be larger than the average for
any month in Great Britain, where the
system has met with the greatest sue
cess. Just as was predicted a large
majority of the depositors were for
eigners who have been accustomed to
sending their savings abroad, and it Is
estimated that millions of dollars thus
