POSTAL SAYINGS.

 Akin of St. Louis.

Little Rock, Oct. i9. That tn, postal savings bank is to become one of the greatest institutions ever promulgated by the United States government, is the belief expressed by T. J. Akin, postmaster of st. Louis, in an address before the Ar kansas posqnastefS f2Ee4tian, Alr, Akin has made a thorough study of the postal depository system and is probably the best yersed man on that subject in the Mississippi val ley. With a flow of magnetic or atory, MT Akin discussed au phases Of the postal savings bank.
 He said, in part Wherever have spokens I have found tte pep- pie deeply interested fin this new policy of government, known as postal savings depeStoriass ! f haYe found them earnestly seeking more light on this subject. 1 want to emphasize that 1 believe in the sub ject which 1 am about to discuss. l entertain the firm conviction that the postal savings Repositories es- tablisheH sby aliskfgovefaInentb roh-s tains possibilities far beyond the dreams of the most ardent advo- cate.

 In Close Touch With Homes.
 You are no doubt impressed with the fact sthat the postal fssstfml comes closer in touch with the lives and homes off the American. people than any other DraheR aUff pubhc service" continued the speaker. For 40 years there has existed in the minds of the American people well-defined public sentiment in favor of the government establish ing postal. savings deposItories. i. This seffinfefh had becbme,sb pf6-1 nounced in the minds of the Ameri- can people of all political parties that each of our great political par ties in 1908 made the postal sav ings Repositories distinct plank of their party platform.
 T think you will agree with me that it is most difficult to discuss a policy of the government that IS without place or precedent in the history of the American govern ment. But | it is. firmly believed that the postal sayings sdebositofies will prove here, as they have elser where, of in&tihable benefits Aos only to those who directly use them, but to the general business community, including our banking interests.

Among the reasons by which MT. Akin backed his judgment that it S dE g5Sls g5SSl5ts s slsE gE 5 5SdRtGTaS5S RGsS efpS 5y the government, MT. Akin gave the following:
 ssslt tfsts upen thes nsghty pillars of frugality, economy, justice and patriotism. It is supported by the enlightened .jpdgmeni,rof the best in formed minds of the American eon- tiiefit,, who are perfectly familiar with it's rttperatiorfs and" Success in countries where it has been tested by actual experience. They are perfectly aware that in the most enlightened nationsfo fof the world It has prOved-a great strength to the financial institutions of those countries. A 4
 Will Increase Patriotism.
 And again, tho postal sayings bank will increase patriotism where 1t is needed. You will agree vilh. me that history records no instance, where government by law has ever been destroyed by iru- gal people who own their own homes and their business, or who have consistent and renumefatlVe employment. The danger to thls government is not from the patriot ie alass of citizens just mentioned The danger which threatens .hic eA = istence of this government ls' rom the. transient, rowing nomadlc class of, our citizenship, whose condition in life would not. be injured by a revolution or change of govern ment. but whose interests and po- sitions in life might be temporarily benefited during the yicissltudes ol war. +t
 Will Encourage Economy.
 Another reason. l think you will agree with me that any pro- vision of the law which emphasizes the importance of economy among the masses of. the people will result in public good. The benefits re- sulting from such u policy sssi nn he limited to money consideration only. 1t will include important standards of living, character ant morals Nothing so greatly encour' ages economy and thrift as an op- portunity to safely deposit smal amounts of money with the govern ment at a small rate of interest,"
