Since 1907 the history of the Moore

for its expansion as has the postal
savings system Of the United States.
When it was placed under the manage
ment Of commissioners, six years ago,
the amount of the credit Of the 1885,
401 depositors was $45,309, ,401. Three
years later there were 368.306 deposit
tors, who had total balance Of $751;
827 $3.50, while on November 80, 1912,
there were 458,711 depositors with bal
ances of $95, ,057, ,85S
Immediately upon their appointment
the commissioners adopted policy Of
decentralization by the establishment
