That Which Should Be Protected
TRAINED and equipped fighting force protects the nation
N The Guaranty public against
the loss old thrnunhb anlh III

Military protection and insurance
were born in the long ago.
The Washington Bank Guaranty
Fund is comparatively new form of
protection.
The Washington State Legislature
passed the law which made this fund pos
sible
The fund is provided through assess
nent of banks that subscribe for member
ship.
Assessments are based upon the
amount of deposits held by each bank
that subscribes.
Operation of the fund parallels insur-
ance. 1t is, in reality, a form of insur-
ance.
For a specified amount individuals
can insure against loss of material DOS
sessions. For specified amount-an as
sessment based upon the average amount
or deposits-a bank can protect its pa
irons against loss of deposits through
bank failure. The primary difference be-
tween the operation of the Washington
Bank Depositors Guaranty Fund and in
surance, is that the individuals must paw
for insurance while the subscribing bank
must assume the expense of memberships
in the fund.
Cost of holding membership is a
factor that has restrained some banks
from subscribing. Inability to qualify for
membership has eliminated others.
No bank, regardless of how sterling
Its reputation may be, can procure a
membership without the formality of an
examination.
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1919-04-11

Its affairs must meet the approval of
the State Bank Examiner
Sound principles must govern the con-
duct of its operations.
Its capital and surplus must bear the
correct relation to deposits.
1t must be thoroughly good bank.
Administration of the Washington
Bank Depositors Guaranty Fund is by a
board composed of the Governor and
State Bank Examiner, ex-off1cio, and
three members appointed by the Gov
ernor.
While there is nothing more uncer-
tain than the variation of individual cir
cumstances and nothing more certain than
the average variation of a great number
of circumstances, the law which made
possible the Washington Bank De-
positors Guaranty Fund, has provided
against emergencies.
Should there ever happen to be so
many bank failures at one time as to
make the fund inadequate to reimburse
all depositors at once, warrants on the
fund are issued to depositors by the State
Bank Examiner. These warrants draw
nve per cent interest until the guaranty
fund is again large enough to reimburse
depositors in full.
A large number of bank failures at
one time is practically impossible. Pro-
vision, however, to cope with such a re-
mote possibility is indicative of the COM
pleteness of that law which permits the
Washington Bank Depositors Guaranty
Fund.
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1919-04-11

History of the operation of State
Bank Depositors Funds discloses the ad-
mirable record of not a penny loss for
patrons of banks holding membership in
a fund.
The law permitting the Washington
Bank Depositors Guaranty Fund was
framed to include the best practices of
similar laws of other states.
The general admission is that this law
is the most thorough and most exacting
of all similar laws.
The provision of certain states for
fund to guarantee deposits of bank pa
irons has proved SO practical that con-
gress is considering an act which will
make it possible for certain banks
throughout the whole United States to
guarantee deposits.
This will provide patrons of these
banks the same protection for their de-
posts that State and Government have
long demanded for theirs.
Washington banks which hold mem
bership in the Washington Bank DEPOSIT
tors Guaranty Fund are already enabled
to guarantee all deposits.
They are in advance of the forthcom-
ing national law.
bank holding membership in the
Washington Bank .Dep0sitors Guaranty

raised their allotment in the million
dollar drive that was put on by the
National organization. The local al
lotment was $3.50, but this amount
was exceeded $50. The organization
has also shown a growth, having taken
in several new members recently, and
they are anxious for every Christian
woman to ally themselves with this
great cause. The tendency of some
IS to believe that the work of this
movement ended with the adoption Of

Our Richland county seat neighbors
neved do things by halves hence there
was no surprise when they reached
the climax in their soldier welcome
last Friday, entertaining as they did
Mt least twenty thousand visitors in a
way that deserves the highest praise.
Fifty per cent of the men sent to
training camps from that county were
in line on honor day, or more than
$50 of them. Added were the Civil
war veterans, Spanish-American men,
business and town floats, four bands,
composing one of the most attractive
parades we have ever witnessed. The
street, business places and residence
decorations and electric displays were
wonderfully fine. The entertainment
program and maner of handling the
soldier feeds and refreshments COM
ported with the other high class fea-
lures of the welcome. Their aero
plane flights, numerous times, were
one of the pleasing stunts of the big
day. There seemed to have been
nothing left undone that would con-
tribute to Richards reputation as an
entertainer. And so long as the
county's purse strings We're unloosed
for the occasion there was the most
possible freedom exercised.
Vernon county and Viroqua con-
tributed at least thousand people to
the throng. Our band appeared to
be a drawing card, leading the i'm
posing parade and playing a long and
varied program. Leader Otto Brown
sounded taps for the sacred zero
period. Our ball team, too, did its
part in the days entertaining.
