of 100000 people and an annual

now has $4,000. The number in Ger
many in 1914 was over $4,000. making
loans to members in one year OF
$1,000, 100000
I'm 1909, when the first credit union
law In the United States was enacted
in Massachusetts,. there we're 10000
unions operating abroad with an an
nual turnover OF s4.0o0.000,000. Japan
alone had nearly 1000 unions In 1909,
and the little country OF Rumania had
$500 unions with a membership OF
350, 900. or 35 per cent. OF the total
population OF the country. but in that
year there was not a single cooperative
credit union i'm the United States"
Thus while we are ahead of other
parts OF the world in a great many
things, we have been very far behind
in the matter OF banking facilities for
working or salaried people. Until few
years ago the private pawnshop. an
institution almost dead and buried In
Europe. was about the only resource
available for people of small means.

Mitchell believes that stricter exami-

requisite to the development OF COM

Before the general public can feel
assurance regarding commercial air
routes the Secretary said there must
be legislation that provides rigid in
spection of air planes and the licensing
of pilots. Federal regulations are
deemed the most appropriate, as these
would eliminate discrepancies In laws
and conduce TO uniformity.
