LARGEST Bank Deposits on Record.

.0l SSSl DoliN 6SHSo'NS va
Deposits in the state, private ana
branch banks in South Carolina are
greater than they ever were before at
this season of the year, according to a
summary furnished by Ivy M. Mauldin
of Pickens, the state bank examiner.
Mr.. Mauldin sends consolidated
statement with the following deduc-
tons therefrom:
"The condition of the 317 state
banks and branches in South Carolina
at close of business September u in
dicates decided increase in business
over that Of one year ago. Loans show
an increase Of over 100000, while
the banks have borrowed 'S2,500,000
less than in 1915. Cash reserve also
shows an increase of over S4,000,OOO.
The biggest increase, however, is
in deposits, which show a total in
crease of s11,0OO,000 over last year, or
a gain Of over 80 per cent. Despite
the, fact that the total capital of state
banks in South Carolina has oecreas-
ed in the past few years, due to some
banks nationalizing, total deposits are
higher than they have ever been at
this season of the year.

been adopted by ether state Sunday
