PUBLIC OPINION

EDITOR EVENING NEWS:
Another good boost for Perth AM
boy, comes with the establishing or
opening Of the Postal Savings Bank
here. The editorial in today's
EVENING NEWS about the above
subject are to some extent refleC-
ing on our local banks, even though
you say while we have excellent
financial institutions it isn't enough
in this case. The local banks adver-
tise always in your widely circulated
paper, but, the large foreign" pop
u~lation. seemingly don't patronize
them TO such an extent as they might
or ought to for their own benefit.
You know it is so that a city, is to
a big extent, measured commercially
by her financial institutions and |
believe and think you will agree with
me that our banks rank in their class
second to nom in the state Or any
where else. A we'll written article
or editorial (now and them on bank
ing would not only be of interest TO
many, but educational value also to
Foreigners maybe some of the ma
tions could benefit by 1t too. Our
local banks pay interest on deposits
and anyone may deposit 500, 500,
81, 600. $4,000 or $1,000 600 at
one time and draw it out 100 cents
to the dollar with interest after 3,
6 or u months.
AS for the Postal Bank here is
where | will ask of you to enlighten
the readers of the EVENING NEWS
l.. Don't misunderstood me-, for be
it far from me to say anything
against Postal Savings Banks, but
when you say: "At the postottice
the foreigners" will learn the prin-
ciple of banking, etc | for n
don't see how hat is done, and
further, l believe a good many for
eigners" will think it is strange, yes
funny as commonly expressed,
that they cant get rid of nor deposit
more than one hundred dollars at
one time, also that our government,
greatest on earth, don't pay any in
terest before after one year? And
then two two per cent? and further,
the foreigner" If anything. hap
pens to draw out the money before a
| specified time, he simply cannot, ana
if he tmust) have money-have to
sell his 500 certificate for $50 or
500, and why, because as a matter OF
business 1t don't draw interest,
Here is where some of the for
| etgners" who have been taught
to put their dependence in the gov
eminent, may loose faith In Uncle
Sam" AS for the term foreign
ers," it is to commonly used, l Won
der if the census man could tell us
how many real natives there are
in our progressive city.
