are particularly oppressive to the
foreign born. No such harsh
rules exist in the postal banks of
their native countries and they
can not understand their pur-
pose here. Certain racial hab-
its of theirs must be recognized
and respected if the service is
to accomplish its full measure of
good, and one of these habits is
to accumulate several hundred
dollars before rendering it for
deposit and because all their
savings can not be accepted at
one time thousands have left our
post Offices in resentment with
out depositing a penny.
Nearly 10000 have reached the
5000 limit and can deposit no
more, despite their appeals to
do so, and of these inactive ac-
counts, which aggregate more
than one-ifth of all postal saw
ings deposits, $4,000 are owned
by the foreign born.
Postmaster General Burleson
will ask the next Congress to re-
lax the oppressive restrictions
on postal savings deposits and
substitute others that will ac-
commodate a large majority of
the public without abandoning or
impairing the original design of
the service. 1t is hoped and be-
lieved that Congress will recog-
nize the urgent need of such ac-
ton and respond promptly to the
appeals of thousands of our peo-
pie who are seeking a better and
happied citizenship in the coun-
try of their adoption.

Postal Savings.
BY HOn. Alexander MonrOe Do

cry.
The Postal Savings System has
IN important future in the So
cial and financial affairs of our
country 1t has already accom-
plished much in the four and a
half years of its existence, as is
shown by an enrolment today
of more than $4,000 ~depositors
who have been encouraged to
save against the day of possible
reverses and of certain infrmity
and age. Standing to the credit
of this provident army are more
than $68, O0O,0 900, every dollar of
which is available on demand to
meet the opportunities and ex-
igencies of its owners. Nor is
this all. Approximately $685.
100000 of this enormous amount
of actual cash has been placed in
5000 banks located in the cities,
towns and communities where it
originated, and thus made avail
able for numberless commercial
enterprises. Postal savings has
brought these millions from hid
ing to light, from disuse into
activity.
The history of the service in
this country has established be-
yOnd the possibility of successful
denial that postal savings depos-
its come almost entirely from
persons who will patronize no
other savings agency, no matter
how sound and conservatively
managed it may be. Postal saw
ings represent hidden and
boarded savings. Too much
stress can not be laid upon this
fact, for in it is disclosed one of
the browning virtues of the SER
vice.
A poll of depositors just made
by the Post Office Department
throws a deal of light on the
practical results of postal saw
ings. It also points the way ia
a much larger usefulness of the
service. Depositors born out.

The reason for the remarkably
large foreign-born patronage is
easily understood when we con.
slider that almost every nation
represented by our depositors
maintains a postal savings bank
which, like ours, has the guar

age amount of a foreign-born de-
p~ositor's account is nearly twice
that of an American born. The
Greeks and Italians are close
competitors in largest average
accounts, with a slight advan-
tage in favor of the former. Then
follow the Hungarians and Aus
trians.
The growth of postal savings
since the European wal began
has surpassed all previous rec
ords. During the fiscal year
ended June 80 the deposits
jumped from S43, 44O 900 to
$50, 100000, a gain of $22,24O,-
900 or 81 per cent, as against a
gain of $9,60O,0OO, or % per
cents, the previous fiscal year.
There was a gain of 100000 in
the number of ~depositors during
1915, while in 1914, the gain was
only $4,000. Seven cities-New
York, Brooklyn, Chicago, Bos-
ton, Detroit, San Francisco, and
Portland, Oregon - have more
than $1,OOO,OOO on deposit.
Every conceivable occupation
represented among postal saw
ings depositors, but those who
work for a daily wage are far in
the lead. The service, there
fore, thrives most in manufac-
turing and mining centers. Post
offices in Greater New York hold
over a fourth of all postal saw
ings deposits in the United
States. Butte, Mont, with 49,
600 population, according to the
last census, has over a half mil
lion on deposit, ten times as
much as many other cities of five
times its population. Among
cities that showed unprecedent-
ed gains during the last fiscal
year were New York City, 200
per cent; Bridgeport, Conn,
1873 per cent Brooklyn, N. Y,
1877 per cent; Paterson, N. j.,
, 1872 per cent; Jersey City, N. ].
122 per cent Detroit, Mich, 112
per cent Newark, N. j., 100 per
!, cent; Akron, Ohio, n per cent
/, Gary, Ind, &c per cent; Pueblo,
, Colo, % per cent.
The ten leading States in pos
, tai savings deposits are: New
York, S19.6OO,O 900; Illinois, $4,-
9OO,O 900; Ohio, $4,42O,OOO Penn
sylvania, $4,000, 900; California,

The Postal Savings System has
encountered from the outset a
/, serious drawback, which has not
only deprived the business pub
lie of millions, but, at the same
time, has embarrassed and dis
heartened thousands of would
be de~positors. This drawback is
the unreasonable and impracti-
cable restrictions in the postal
savings act which limit the
amount that may be accepted
from a depositorto 500 a month
| and $500 in all. The files of the
Post Office Department are
! crowded with thousands of re-
ported instances where intend
ing depositors, offering tarnish-
: ed coin and fusty currency in
: amounts above what could be &C
cepted, have, in their disap-
%pointment, brought foreign
money orders or returned their
rejected savings to insecure hid
ing places. The pressure on the
: department to accept more than
the law permits has been very
severe during the past year and
: shows practically no abatement
now.
