on the industrial system, combination
of the old German Genossenschaft Bank
and the modern Building and Loan AS
ISOLATION. and its parti0lar purpose is to
lend money at a legal rate of interest to
persons who have character and industry,
but who have no regular bank credit
Government statistics show that out of
every thousand persons in this country,
SIS have no accounts with the regular
banking institutions. This fact alone will
explain why the loan shark has thrNed

ties, and why people have had to
patronize them.
