REELECTED
 SENATOR

FAIRBANKS, Nov. 3O.-Suther- land has been reelected senator from the Fourth division with 1865 votes to his credit as against 1,167 for his opponent, McGowan.
 It was apparent that strong in- fuences worked against Sutherland and for his rival as his vote in the city was small compared to former years.
 The outlying districts, however, where these influences were not felt were strong for him. Tolovana help ed him greatly in the late returns as it also did Wickersham.
 A few more small precincts are to be heard from but they will only add to his majority.

The savings bank movement had
hardly started in England and Scot
land during the early part Of the
nineteenth century when the idea
crossed the Atlantic and quickly took
root in our soil. Sometime during
the year 1916 such schemes we're sim
utlaneously conceived in New York,
Philadelphia and Boston, through cor
respondence with the mother country.
Thomas Eddy, Of New York received
a letter from London magistrate
named Patrick Colquhoun during that
wear. which he outlined the English
savings bank idea. James Savage, OF
Boston and Condy Raguet of Philadel-
mia likewise received the same infor-
nation. but from what source is not
definitely known.
These three gentlemen, unknown TO
each other. began to formulate plans
for the establishment of savings banks
for the alienation of poverty on the
mart of the masses and to encourage
habits of thrift and industry among
the moor. Numerous attempts had
heretofore been made by well-mean-
ing persons to accomplish the same
end. but by different means. II was
attempted to regulate the wages OF
mechanics by law Statutes we're
passed fixing prices; sick and aid So
cieties we're formed and even lotter-
les established by law to afford relief
to the poor. Tammany Hall In New
York was first instituted in 1903 as a
society "to afford relief to the indi-
cent and distressed members OF the
association, their widows and or
phans."
All these endeavors accomplished
hut little permanent good. in that they
we're charities. and the people did not
need charity-they needed then as
now. a chance to help themselves.
The result of this movement was
the establishment of three savings
banks one in Philadelphia. the Phila-
delphia Savings Fund Society, which
opened its doors for business Decem-
Der 2. 1916, being the hrst BANK OF
its kind to receive deposits in this
country. The Provident Institution Tor
Savings i'm the town of Boston, the
first bank of its kind to incorporate
being the first to receive legislative
sanction. and the Bank for Savings in
New York, now located at Twenty-sec'
ond street and Fourth avenue, the last
to incorporate. due to the hostility
on the part of the New York Legisla'
ture towards banks in general, but
which after three years effort sue
ceeded in getting its charter and open
ing for business in March, 1919.
The growth of these three banks
was rapid from the start, and they
have for a century. been the deposi

England's commerce will grow

facturers and the shipowners will,
when the war is over, jump into the
game Of commerce and finance and
trade with an enthusiasm as great as

/ Other European countries will be
