Banks are recognized as much more

The war did a good deal to bring
the banks into use by the people, The
sale of Government bonds through
them set up a much more wholesome
relationship. Great numbers OF peo-
pie found that secreted money was
not really working after all, and that
money is only useful when it is at
work. That Delta doctor perhaps
never figured out that if he loaned
this money at 6 per cent, or bought
first class security at that rate, ne
would be S1,740 to the good every
year. Or, if he put it in the bank in
a savings account at 3 per cent his
annual return would be $3.50, COM

losing at least $3.50 year whether
he kept the money safely or not, los

House Committee
In Favor Of Postal
Saving Changes
Plans Suggested by Postmaster zen
eral Hays For Amending Law Is
Approved, With Recommen'
dations for Passage of Bill

Officials of Postal Savings are very
much gratified over the action OF tne
Committee on the Post Office and POST
Roads of the House of Representa-
tives reporting out of the committee
on November %, 1921, the olll 20
amend the laws relating to Postai
Savings and recommended tnal Inc
bill be passed. This bill was originally
introduced in the House OF Represeh-
tatives at the request Of Postmaster
!: General Hays, Chairman Of the Board
of Trustees, Postal Savings. 1t makes
provision for changes in some OF the
more important and principal features
of Postal Savings. The desire OF the
Postmaster General and the BOARD OF
Trustees in that deposltors IN Posea,
Savings be afforded every practical
convenience to deposit their money
with the Government for safe-keeping
and that the Government in return
pay those depositors as high rate
of interest as is practicable without
competing with and iniuring legltl-
mate and sound banking institutions.
The bill makes the following
chanres in the existing law:
j. Abolishes the minimum age limit
of 10 years and authorizes joint and
trust accounts. A joint account is
where the deposit is carried in the
name of two persons and in the event
of the disability or death of one the
other person may withdraw the de-
post. Trust account will embody ac-
counts where money is deposited by
one person in trust for another, such
of $500 as in the present law.
2. The bill as reported out OF the
House Committee proposes to limit
the amount allowed as a balance to the
credit Of any person at $4,000 instead
of $4,000 as in the present law.
g. Rate of interest to be paid de-
positors is increased in this bill from
2 to,3 per cent per annum. Provision Is
also embodied in the bill so that inter-
est will be paid on funds on deposit
for periods less than one year.

<<T WANT to go back-see my family
home," Sophie, our Polish maid,
explained in her broken English
her request for two months vacation.
OF course we were astounded. But the
incident is not really unusual this year;
it's all part of a postwar phenomena.
Sophie just wanted to join the large num-
ber of third class tourists"-a new bit of
nomenclature in the argot of the steamship
business.
. So 1 went to see Sophie off She sailed
on the Minnekahda, which is known vari-
ously as the de luxe liner, third class, and
as the ship of democracy" Sophie had
go third class on a first class ship or on
a first class third class ship. But since
Sophie's English is limited to what she has
gathered and appropriated in just two
years of America, / determined the matter
for her-that it would be pleasanter for
her to be, as it were. the head of the
mouse rather than the tail of the lion.
Most of Sophies fellow passengers were,
like her. aliens or naturalized American
citizens taking a trip to Europe; nine
tenths of them will be back within three
or four months. Sophie came down to the
pier with a steamer trunk and taxi. There
were many other trunks and taxis and
limousines. OF bon voyage baskets there
seemed to be no end. and friends were
there in furs and shiny satins and bearing
bouquets.
The trunk disposed of. we went ahead
and were met by a steward, who carried
Sophie's hand luggage and guided us to
the room reserved for her. A room with
but two berths, an open rort, running
water in an individual wash basin, plenty
of room and privacy and the promenade
deck right outsde-oh. Sophie didn't know
whether she was dreaming or not But
two years ago she had sailed from Danzig
and had been herded into an open dormi-
tory with sixteen berths. That was before
the rise of the third class tourist" who,
because he is fastidious, would refuse to
book passage on the now obsolete "immi-
grant ships with "steerage" space. Most
of the ocean liners have been reconditioned
to meet this demand; some have been con-
verted into steamers with third class ac-
commodation only, but the Minnekahda
was built new for this purpose.
Well, Sophie gasped. and then we went
on to explore further. Most of the other
passengers did too. Nor was Sophie alone
in feeling the white cloths on the dining
tables and trying out the individual swivel

thence swiftly south. This is becoming
the popular tourist route to Italy instead
of the long southern voyage by way of the
Mediterranean.
Confessedly many of these take the trip
that they may. legally and with pleasure,
take drink Some of the steamship COM
panies supply free wine for them, and l am
told that 5000 gallons of wine is the usual
amount taken on in Italy for round trip.
But, all told. drink is minor motive in
sending these melting" foreigners abroad.
Recently party of 800 Firms. who had
enjoyed prosperous year in the wheat
and timber districts in Minnesota and
Michigan, went back home to attend the
Finnish midsummer festival. Another
party of about $50 Germans belonging to

and suburbs of the city went to Germany
to visit the singing societies there and to
hear the music festivals and opera as it is
presented in Germany. On a recent trip

they're settled on board ship. It's quite
league of nations and an entirely cordial
one. and if certain groups are clannish
they have. at least, the virtue of minding
their own concerns. 1t might be added
here, as steamship officials noted to me,
that there is practically no French traffic
on the nom French lines, so that there is
small opportunity for Franco-P Prussian
conflicts.
There are, though. plenty of Germans
going back to their homeland. many of
them to get the advantages of their
American dollar money" They are glad
to taste some of that good, real Bavarian
beer which is theirs at the bar, three
miles out And the Poles don't mind the
same pleasure-though 1 am not referring
particularly to Sophie.

because she's so steady her passengers

the 800 passengers don't come down for
meals there's considerable saving effected
Mr.. Hardy showed me the kosher kitchen
for the Jewish passengers and then re-
minded me that I'd better hurry round

an hour because that important individual
was missing. All of the lines caring for

| questioned at random four Italians
and asked their wealth and purpose; their
capital aggregated s2S,000, and, as it hap
pened, they were all going back TO Italy
to buy olive farms to cultivate and live on.
Another, man of German descent living
in st. Louis. told me that he was on his
way with his family to spend the vacation
in his six room villa in the Bavarian Alps
which he had bought as summer home
last year for the number of marks then
exchanged for 5000.
l found an Italian family making itself
comfortable in a large outside room con-
tanning six berths-for papa and mamma
and the four little Italians. At least the
head of the family thought they were that,
but / am afraid that he will go through
being a "greenhorn'' all over again, and
that his American born brood will be little
foreigners in Italy. He would like to live
in Italy. he told me, but he will doubtless
come back, as did the Polish family who
found they didn't fit "at home" any more.
They realized, moreover, that there wasn't
any running water for them there, and
how could they do without sanitaries?
Prosperous Laborers Return.
But most of these third class travellers
are laborers to whom the war brought
prosperity enough to take a vacation
abroad. The third class tourist, in spite
of the money he made during the war as
munitions worker or laborer in a shipyard
is a peasant still. Now that the coveted
trip to the homeland is at hand he wouldn't
think of travelling any other way than
third class. This is especially true of the
Scandinavians. the Germans. the Italians,
the Poles and the Central Europeans gen
orally, in whom there is a strong native
sense of thrift and providence.
Often they make the trip in a tribe.
Only the other day $50 Italians who are
now making more money in the vineyards
of California since grape juice is legally
preferred to wine. came to New York on a
special train from the coast accompanied
by a special agent of the steamship COM
