LIBERTY LOAN AND SAVINGS
BANKS.

The effect of the Liberty Loans and
the War Savings Stamps on savings
banks deposits has been watched with
keen interest by economists and finen-
ciers. The experience OF England was
very encouraging; In the year 1915
the English small depositors pur-
chased billions OF dollars of war bonds
and at the same time increased their
deposits in savings banks over $G0-
100000.
The belief is entertained that the
result In America has been very SINH
lar to that in England, and that de-
spite the purchase by the American
people Of some S10,000,000. 900 of Lib
erty Bonds and s5O0,000000 of War
Savings Stamps. very fair proper
ton Of which were purchased by saw
ings banks depositors, savings banks
deposits have increased
Full reports have been received
from the savings banks in New York
State, They show a decrease in de-
posits for the last year of only $S,00O,-
900. but an increase of 21.252 deposit
tors. The loss in deposits is insight
fcant; the increase II the number OF
depositors very significant. With in
creased cost of living and other war
conditions, the decrease in deposits
might well be expected the increase
of depositors shows that the saving
habit is greatly growing in our coun-
try.
