SAFETY OF CREDIT UNIONS.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

/ want to add a few words about
the credit union. to which the last
two articles In this series have been
devoted. AS has been stated, tho pur-
pose OF the credit union is twofold, to
encourage among its members the reg
ular and systematic saving Of small
sums to accord credit facilities in the
way of small loans. --
The question at once arises as to the
safety OF these loans and as to the
purposes for which they are made. 1t
would be natural to object that an
organization of this kind without ex-
perience in banking practice would
make many mistakes in loaning money
with consequent heavy losses. Expe-
rience shows that nothing Of the kind
happens. The reason is that tho credit
committee that passes upon all appli-
cations is made up Of men personally
familiar with the circumstances of
the borrower as well as his or her
character. The chances are that these
committees are just as well able to
judge the soundness Of a kind Of
loan they make as Is a banker to estt-
mate the risk he Is taking when a Gus
toner applies for accommodation. The
safety of the credit union system lies
In this close personal touch between
close who pass upon the loan and those
to whom the loan Is made.
Now as to the purposes for which
loans are made. They are Of two
classes First comes those applications
arising out of sickness, unemployment
or misfortune of any kind. Second
come those which might be called pro-
ductive loans. They range from the
young man borrowing to pay the ex-
penses Of a course in night school to
the small business just making a start.
Sometimes, too, loans are made to en-
pioyes who wish to purchase stock In
the corporation for which they are
working.
All these credit problems relate to
the urban type OF credit unions. The
rural credit unions make loans of a
different kind. but fully as important
They do a good deal in the line of CO.
operative buying of feeds, fertilizers
and supplies. as well as the actual
financing OF crops. always remember
ing that this is done, as far as the
Individual loan is concerned, on a
small scale and that the business is
confined to a particular group or To-
cality.

Prospects for an "old time" 'oot-

this year are bright. Coach Cornell
told the Kiwanis club Thursday
The squad this year is the largest in
the history OF the school, and has
enough men OF experience to Justify
such an optimistic viewpoint, he said.
This years schedule is confined to
teams in the College OF Idaho class,
Cornell pointed out. Idaho and Utah,
with whom games were scheduled last
year, are not on this year s scneuute.
Both OF these teams found the college
at its loves, athletic ebb in recent
years and Coach Cornell decided to
take no chances this year with games
beyond the capacity of his squad to
play.
