who was visiting the missions Of that
section of the country. Going In to
the James Bay section, he travelled over
the new railroad from Cochrane to
Moose Factory.
Asked about religion Of the Indians,
DR.. Cooper said that many of them
still keep much of their old paganism.
Their religious beliefs for the most part
center about hunting. The Indian seeks
guardian spirit He fasts and awaits
an Illuminating dream. In the dream
the spirit appears. prophesying the life
career of the man, especially his do
meStic and hunting fortune.
1.-THE James Bay Indians" he de-
clared. "are very polite to the animals
they trap and kill. For example, the
bones of the beaver must not be thrown
to the dogs. They must be thrown In
the water. Otherwise, the beaver would
be offended.
Bear hunting is great ceremonial
affair. Before bear is killed, a speech
of apology is made. Your people and
our people are friends the speaker
tells the bear, and we are sorry to
have to kill you. But we need the food.
Please do not be displeased with us.
We promise you that all proper honors
will be paid to you The dead bear is

Our system Of civilization is based
on highly developed indiyiduallsm.
The James Bay Indian system Is predl-
Gated on highly developed economic
absorption of the individual in the
family group.
Family life Is the keystone Of the
existence of these people. They are
non-competitive race. They have no
traditions of war or Of fighting, except
in self defense. when long ago their
country used to be raided from time
to time by the Iroquois. They have no
proper understanding of competition.
"Of politics or political organization
they know almost nothing. Some bands
have chiefs, but the title is largely hon.
orary. In the old days, still remem-
bered, there were no chiefs. The head
of the family is the head Of the group.
"A hunting people, they have no un-
derstanding of agriculture. 1t is for
this reason that the conservation of
the game resources OF the territory Is
SO vital"
Goes by Open Boat.
DR.. Cooper went by small open boat
from Moose Factory, at the southern
end of James Bay, up the east coast 800
miles to the northern section of the
bay. On a former expedition to the
region he followed the Albany and
Moose rivers. This year for several
weeks he travelled with Father Saindon,

|. 1.-THE chin Of the bear Is preserved
as trophy and charm. It is deco
rated with heads and strung on a
string. One man whom know has a
collection of % such chins on string.
1.-The bear is considered by the In
dians to be the most intelligent OF ami
mails, almost as intelligent as man,
and the black bear known to the
James Bay people is deserving OF hlgn
regard for its sagacity.
Bear ceremonial rites have been
traced by scientists nearly all around
the Arctic world. They probably were
practiced by our own ancestors IN the
northern parts of Europe"
The Indians of the west shore OF
James Bay are Cree-speaking. Those
of the east shore are Montagnais.
DR.. Cooper says the section Is "one
of the most primitive areas OF the
world and one of the least known" He
brought back with him 400 pages OF
closely written notes.

Share All Possessions.
The history of the James Bay Indians
has been known since the early sew
enteenth century, DR.. Cooper says.
For nearly 800 years they have en-
joyed a reputation for being a peace
ture is cooperative in character, with
the family as its basic social element.
If one man kills caribou he shares
with all in camp. He owns his prize;
it is his, but if he did not share it, he
would be considered "a tightwad, a
miser-a fearful thing to be.
1.-THE Indians share nearly every
thing. especially food. Unequal distri-
button of wealth is almost unknown
among them, and our system of prop
erty would not be understood. For
merly, there was no stealing or tres
passing among them. Recent develop
mentS have come from outside. But
even now there is no thieving in the
sense of the word which We understand.
Murder is exceedingly rare. Suicide is
unknown. There is no gambling, no
drinking. no intoxication. There is no
native intoxicant and there never has
been any.
"Thrift among these people IS not
virtue. 1t would be looked upon al
most as a vice, an intolerable selfish
ness. An Indian trapped some silver
foxes, and sold the pelts for about
$4,000 A white friend persuaded him
to put the money in bank. He did as
he was advised, but with considerable
reluctance. A few weeks later the
money had been drawn out. The friend

on all their assets In addition, the stock
which the borrowing institution owns
in the regional Home Loan Bank will
revert to the bank in case of failure OF
the borrower to repay. Here, then, Is
major obligation placed upon the first
borrower of the funds. In this connec-
ton, it should be noted that building
and loan associations have borrowed
from commercial banks for many dec
AIDES, giving as their sole security note
against the total assets. No case Is on
record where any bank ever lost money
on such a loan.
THE borrowing association in turn
lends the funds to an individual home
owner. 1t expects him to repay the
mortgage in order to pay back its own
borrowings from the Home Loan Bank.
What are the odds that the home owner
will pay? A look at the records OF
building and loan associations over a
period of 101 years operations is ex-
cellent testimony to the good faith of
the home borrower These associations
have confined their operations to the
financing of homes. During the past
decade, for which we have exact rec
ords, it is found that 99.95 per cent of
the total assets of the building and loan
associations were absolutely safe.
First Obligation.
THE first obligation securing the
bonds is that of the borrowing institu-
tions Before this institution can de-
fault on its obligation its total assets,
plus its capital stock in the bank, would
have to be less than the amount of its
borrowings. Even if such an incon-
ceivable condition should occur, then
the Home Loan Bank still has recourse
to the home owner, because it holds his
mortgage. If the home owner falls
down on the bargain, there Is property
worth nearly to l of the outstanding
debentures on which the regional bank
has a first lien. And there is yet fur
ther bulwark back of these bonds. All
of the assets of the IL Home Loan
Banks are liable for the repayment of
money invested in the securities issued
by the system. In short. all IL of the
banks would have to fail, great ma
jority of the home owners in the coun-
try would have to default and the
building and loan associations would
have to change their 10l-year record of
safety before a bondholder in the Fed
eral Home Loan Bank system would
lose a cent

outstanding. This $4,000 loan is 40
per cent of the $4,000 appraised value
of the home property which is the
original security behind the loan. This
is the maximum loan which the law
permits a member institution to obtain
from the bank.
"The Home Loan Bank having made
this advance of $4,000 to a member
building and loan association. now
holds the mortgage on which the
amount outstanding is 1888. Against
this holding, following the provision
IN the act for Sl90 security behind each
500 in bonds, the Home Loan Bank
System can issue not more than $l,754
worth of debentures. The relation be-
tween the 5000 value OF the home
property and the $1,754 maximum pos
slble debentures is 285 70 100.
Safety of the Bonds.
. This example is taken to show the
safety of the bends unoer the least
favorable conditions permitted by the
law. In majority OF cases the 60
per cent of the amount outstanding on
mortgage which the bank is per-
m1tted to advance to a member as
sociation will be less than 40 per cent
CT the value Of the home, and con-
sequently there will be an even greater
property value back Of the bonds as
rule.
The provision of the law reads as
follows:
ANY such advance shall be subject
to the following limitations as to
amount:
If secured by home mortgage
given in respect Of an amortized home
mortgage loan which was for an orig
1ral term of eight years or more. or in
cases where shares of stock, which are
pledged for security for such loan, ma
ture in period of eight years or more,
the advance may be for an amount not
in excess of 60 per centum of the un-
paid principal of the home mortgage
loan; in no case shall the amount of
the advance exceed 20 per centum of
the value Of the real estate securing the
home mortgage loan.
IF secured by home mortgage
given IN respect of any other hCme
mortgage loan, the advance shall nca
be for an amount in excess cf so per
centum of the unpaid principal of the
home mortgage loan in no case shall
the amount of such advance exceed 80
per centum of the value Of the real es-
tate securing the home mortgage loan.
No home mortgage shall be ac-
cepted as collateral security for al ad-
vance by Federal Loan Bank if, at the
time such advance is made, % the
home mortgage loan secured by it has
more than Is years to run to maturity
