TO PAY WAGES INTO BANKS
Idea Evolved by Prominent British
Firm Seems to Be Worth Serious
Consideration.

At a recent meeting of the share
holders of Lever Bros, the great Brit
ish soap makers, the chairman de-
scribed new method of paying
wages, which they were planning to
adopt. Each employee would be re-
Quired to have a private bank account,
either in the firms bank or in any
other; the weekly or monthly pay roll
would be sent to the firms bank, and
the sum each man is entitled to would
he placed to his credit. Then he could
draw whatever he needed for house
hold or other expenses and leave the
rest to his credit, where it would draw
interest. The firm would supplement
all balances with additions. This
would do away with pay envelopes
and standing in line and would en-
courage saving.
