Regarding the gift by Mr.. Wynkoop,

that this was strictly private matter
between personal friends of long stand
ing and adds:
'In passing judgment upon this incl

State insurance fund pays no commits

FRENCH ARE SAVING
FASTER THAN EVER
Banks Report Unprecedented
Volume of Deposits.

PARIS, Oct. 15 (delayed) Deposits in
French Government savings banks in
creased 100000 900 france last year, ac-
cOrding TO figures Just given out by the
statistical department. the deposit
balances at the end OF the year totalling
3,5s0. 100000 francs This gain has been
largely surpassed this year. the increase
for the first nine months being 76O, 000,-
900 francs, eclipsing all records In the
operation of the Government savings
institutions, in spite of the fact of
heavy Withdrawals made for investment
in Treasury bonds which drew the high
est interest and which are still selling
at the rate of 100000. 900 francs a
month.
These figures appear to refute the
theory advanced lately that the high
cost OF living in France is due largely to
the fact that the people are becoming
reckless spenders under the influence OF
plenitude OF money. All classes no
doubt are spending more for luxuries,
as well as for necessities. The working
men particularly are INDUCING in GER
tain things that they were not accus-
toned to before their wages were
doubled, but the bank figures seem to
show that they also are saving more and
apparently maintaining the same pro-
portion between outlay and income as
before their increase in wages.
