MOST DEPOSITORS IN ONLY
 FLOATING BANK ARE SAILORS

Detroit. Aug. 25.-The worlds only navigabIe bank, carried aboard the mail boat C. F. Bielman, Jr., operat- ing in the Detroit river, now has 100 depositors The cashiers statement submitted to William J. Nagel, Post master, reveals that the bank is rap idly becoming a popular institution with sailors despite the fact that it has been established only since May. The majority of the present depos- itors are passenger line sailors, but by next season administrative officials of the Detroit Postoffice hope to reach freight sailors who are on vessels passing Detroit.
 For years Duluth and Cleveland banks had monopolized the banking business transacted by lake sailors. When sailors wished to deposit money they usually gave it to the captain of their vessel to bank for them on reaching port In time this became a regular duty imposed on ship officials and in many instances the officials have tried to escape the responsibility of handling money for their employees Recognizing that the government could give banking fla cilities fully as secure and efficient as private banking corporations, Post master Nagel decided at the opening of navigation to experiment with a bank aboard the mail boat, which serves every passing freighter.
 The mail bank is a branch in stitution of the regular Detroit Pos tai Savings Bank. Literature descrip- tive of the banking methods in vogue under government banking reguIa- tions were delivered to every vessel that has passed Detroit this season. Masters were requested to post bank placards conspicuously for the bene- fit of seamen who wished to become depositors. The cooperation of the vessel officers and men has resulted in Postmaster NageTs decision to con- t:nue the innovation.
