Of three members, are also named. Al

with or without amendments. Neces-
sary books and business forms are al
SO provided for at this time.
Two copies Of the bylaws and an Or

The board Of directors appoints q
bank committee to select some local
banking institution through which the
union does its business. The credit
union IL accorded treatment similar to
that which one bank gives another. AZ
a rule 1t receives per cent interest
upon time deposits and per cent on
monthly balances. while 1t borrows
from the bank at per cent interest.
The business Of the organization IL
formally begun at a fourth meeting at
which time each member buys one or
more shares Of stock at $40 share.
and deposits with the union any idle
cash that can be spared. The union
also. accepts deposits from nonmem-

small-scale bank. but 1t il able to oper-
ate at a minimum Of expense since
most Of the overhead expenses Of a
regular bank are eliminated. The on
GERS, with the exception Of the treas
urer. receive no compensation. The
treasurer. who Ia required to devote
three or four hours a week to the bus
mess Of the organization. usually re-
ceives q salary Of about $50 year.
The credit union thus becomes primar-

depositors operating under state law.
