678,353 INVESTORS
GIVEN INSURANCE
Savings and Loan Insur-
ance Corporation Re-
ports Progress.

Eong-term savings of 678,353 in
vestors in thrift institutions of this
country have been given protection up
to this month by insurance granted
by the Federal Savings and Loan In
surance Corp, according to report
yesterday by the agency.
The investments of these share
holders in institutions of the building
and loan type were calculated to total
1888, 3,269,445
The corporation reported it had ex-
tended insurance to 861 Federal and
State chartered savings and loan as
sociations, safeguarding 678,353 diff
ferent share holders, with an average
investment of some $565.
The insurance corporation had re-
ceived, up to July 20, applications for
insurance from 1897 associations,
with assets of $735,553,458 Of these
institutions, STA are established build
ing and loan associations, 375 of which
were recently converted into Federal
savings and loan associations.
The savings of approximately l.
100000 persons were said to be held in
applicant institutions, including those
already insured. The resources of the
institutions applying for insurance
were estimated to amount to Is per
cent of the entire assets of all institu-
tions of the savings and loan type
throughout the country. This was
taken as an indication of the extent
to which executives of the institutions
are seeking to adopt this additional
protection for their small investors.
by making a larger, more stable
volume of savings available at rela-
lively low dividend rates." the cor
poration said, the insurance feature
likewise permits home financing asso-
Citations to make mortgage loans to
home owners on more liberal terms.
Several associations which formerly
we're obliged to pay dividends of AS
per cent or more in order to attract
savings have been able to reduce their
dividends to 3.5 per cent and even 3
per cent because of the increase in
savings resources resulting from in
surance.
They have thus been able to re-
duce their lending rates as much as
per cent"
The insurance protects each in
Vestor against loss up to $4,000.
