While the Postal Banks, as now
operated, are of only very limited use,
they still form a splendid foundation
for a full government banking system,
and ought to have the support OF
every Socialist. All that is needed is
to extend and perfect their operations.

and defects as at present operated.
and also such changes as we Social
ISIS ought to advocate in order TO
make them what they, from our
standpoint, oaeht to be.
To us the all-important advantage
is that they are Socialist institution.
They fulfill one half of the financial
planks of our platform, collective ow-
nership of the banking system. How
much cause you may find for criti-

pared with that, all other COnSldera-

how awkward and announcement their
methods, they ought to be the only

advantage is their absolute safety.
Compared with this, little less in
