THRIFT LESSON
SHOWN IN BANK
DEPOSITS HERE
Savings and Checking Ac-
counts Are Increased In
Richmond, Bankers Report

In spite of the fact that an unprece-
denied burden has been placed on the
finances of the county, bank deposits
in Richmond and Wayne county are
larger and more numerous than ever
before. according to a statement made
by Richmond banker today.
THE high cost of living has, in
many cases, been accompanied by a
proportionate increase in wages and
salaries, but even where the salaries
have not increased, the lesson OF
thrift has been driven home to every
one in the county, with the result
that savings and checking deposits
are increasing at a rate that is a
great surprise to all of u.s." one Rich.
mond banker declared.
In addition to the demands for liv-
ing expenses, citizens of the country
have come forward in response to
every financial compaign conducted
during the war, and the quota of the
county has been reached, in every
instance.
Increase 100000
The average quota of the county
in each Liberty loan was approximate
ly one and helf million dollars, and
this quota was exceeded in every cam
paign, and in addition, the people of
the county have found means to in
crease their bank deposits. In few
cases, the fact that many forms of
expensive amusements were either
discontinued or seldom used during
the war, and the money that would
otherwise be spent on these, was
placed in the banks.
Deposits in our bank" one banker
said, have increased approximately
100000 during the last year, as shown
by the banks statement, and believe
the same proportionate increase is
being shown by almost every other
bank in the country"
Investments in treasury certificates
of Indebtedness, amounting to more
than $2.300,000 were also made in
the country, making total of almost
$10,000,000 invested in war securities,
in addition to the large amounts SUBJ
scribed for various war work organi-
"a tons.
The treasury certificates sold in the
country are gradually being paid off,
as they become due, but in most cases,
this money is deposited along with
savings, in the banks
