German Coop. Banks
Immense Resources

One of the most important docu-
ments that has come out of Germany
since the war is the report of the
German cooperative credit unions
or peoples banks. The distress in
flicted by the kaisers war upon Ger
man farmers and workers has great
ly increased the number and re-
sources of these cooperative banks,
since they offer almost the only
means of economic salvation for the
producing classes.
The idea of cooperative credit So
cieties originated in Germany in
1849. By 1910 the Raiffeisen farm
ersO credit unions numbered 1893,
with a membership of one and a
half million; while the industrial
workers cooperative banks, the
Schulze-Delitzsch societies, totaled
1851, with 671 $50 members. The
present report shows that the Raft
feisen societies increased by 1920
to $4,000, supported by $500 local
savings and loan banks, with bus
mess of five and a half billion
marks for the year. These local
banks are merged in three central
loan banks, with a turnover for
1920 of nearly one and one-half bill
lion marks, and a national clearing
house known as the Central Agricul-
tural Loan Bank of Germany. The
immense power of the Raiffeisen CO.
operative banks is indicated by the
increase in business of this central
bank from 1888 100000 marks in
1913 to II ,900,000,000 marks in 1919,
and 22,700,000 marks in 1920, with
deposits exceeding Withdrawals by
349, 100000 marks. The credit bal
ance Of this great workers bank now
totals 1908, 000,0 100000 marks. AL
though this huge figure is in part
due to the deprecated value of the
mark, the main reason is the growth
of the local societies which own the
central bank and supply its resources.
Besides providing credit for their
members, the Raiffeisen peoples
banks help them buy food and cloth
ing and market their crops. These
cooperative banks are the backbone
Of $4,000 cooperative enterprises,

including diaries, distilleries, electri-
cal supply societies, societies for the
sale and purchase of cattle, and con-
sumers purchasing depots. These
purchasing depots supplied cooper
ators with the necessities of life to
the extent Of 813,474,215 marks in
1920, on which a net surplus Of g.
284,914 marks was saved.
The cooperative peoples banks of
Germany are the power-house for all
other forms of cooperative activities.
Realizing the vast possibilities of
cooperative banking for the coop
erative movement in this country, the
All-American Cooperative Commits
sion of Washington, D. c., has pre-
pared a model cooperative banking
bill for submission to the state leg
islatures at their next sessions.

THE UNEMPLOYED

l never saw a sadder thing,
Beneath Gods vaulted blue,
Than that grim line of starving men
Who had no task to do.
They came before the frozen stars
Had faded from the sky,
And all day long the wealthy folks
Rolled curiously by.
They did not ask for lordly things
For temples or for lands,
They only asked the right use
The glory of their hands.
And all day long the waiting line
Stood shaking in the street,
And, oh, their willing, idle hands,
And, oh, their aching feet!
/ never saw a sadder thing
In all the city's strife,
Than that worn host of ragged men
Who waited there for life.
They did not ask for aims of gold,
Nor things of lordly worth;
They only asked the right to share
The labor of the earth.
