Many years ago his grandfather,
George Mitchell, left Havre de Grace
and went to Illinois, where he amassed
about S1,000000. He died, and the
money was bequeathed to his SON
Arthur, for his use during life. and, il
he should die intestate, the money was
to pass on to the daughter, Lila, and
her children. In the meanwhile, Lila

Protecting Funds of FrafernaI
Societies, Lodges, Charitable
and Educational Institutions

Within recent years the number OF
defalcations by custodians Of the
funds Of fraternal societies. lodges,
charitable and educational institu-
tions. have steadily decreased. Tragic
circumstances often followed the ex-
posure of such betrayal of trust. II
was found that funds of such socie-
ties and institutions, had been used
for speculation and more often had
been wasted through bad investments
or incompetent management, The old
proverb "everybody's business is no
body's business" was illustrated in
lamentable way by the manner in
which fraternal and charitable Or
ganizations have been deprived of
their funds
The fact that the courts record a
] less number of such violations Of
! duty is due almost entirely to the
growing custom of having trust COM
panies assume all the obligations and
burdens in connection with the fin
ances of fraternal educational and
charitable organizations. The logic
of this policy has also been appreci-
ated by church and religious organ
| izations. In a number of cities the
funds of religious organizations are
deposited in trust companies and all
! the duties of receiving moneys and
expending funds for the separate
church, social. hospital, missionary
and educational institutions are dis.
tributed through such agency.
This work is a comparatively new
departure in trust company services
! A large number OF such companie,
have established special Department.

ties The method most frequently
employed is to appoint the trust com

at the same time he may superyis

and assessments to be collected an

bursements. An important feature

case Of educational institutions there
may be endowments to preserve, in
cluding investments. It Is easily TO
be seen that a trust company which
has so largely to do with investments,
is able to select better and more
profitable investments than an indi-
vidual The trust company also at
tends to all financial duties In con-
nection with operating expenses Of
educational and religious buildings,
collecting rents. attending TO repairs
etc.
The successful and safe manner in
which trust companies handle this
kind Of work is inducing Quasi-public
and fraternal organizations to uti-
Ike their services more and more
Not only is there the possibility Of
misappropriation OF funds. by an indi-
vidual treasurer but he may also be
man who having his own important
affairs to look after, therefore, has
not the time or the necessary facili-
ties to perform his work economic
I ally or with accuracy. Where trust
companies have established special
departments under the management
of an expert, the work is done with
{ expedition and with saving to the
society or institution for which such
services are performed
! AT one of the recent national as
+ semblies of the representatives and
ministers of one of the most power
ful reh sious denominations a resolu-
tion was passed TO have all the gen.
eral and separate funds deposited
with trust companies. Special atten-
ton was directed at the business
meeting Of the assembly to the ex-
/ cellent services which trust compan.
les offer in that line This action was
also due In a measure TO a number
of defalcations of church funds b,
trusted" custodians. Several weeks
ago the announcement was made II
the publication devoted to trust com
pany interests that a leading trus
company in ottawa. Ontario. had beef
appointed to take charge of the fund
and financial transactions incident q
the management OF the Anglican Dio
cese of ottawa. This was done, it wa
explained, in the interests of econom.
] and efficiency.
Another recent illustration of tn
! increasing reliance placed In trus
! company management was recorde
in Baltimore, where woman left in
