M|DATLANTIC
STATES ADD TO
SAVINGS

All States in the Middle At
lantic section Of the United
States showed gains in savings in
banks and in the number Of de-
positors during the year ending
June 80, Pennsylvania leading
with the largest aggregate in
crease, $l17,O36, 900, and the great
est number Of new depositorS.
These facts are brought out in
annual compilation on savings
deposits and depositors in the
United States, of the Savings Di'
vision, American Bankers ASSo-
citation, prepared by w. ESpey AL
big, deputy manager in charge OF
the division. Mr.. Albig'S analysis
of the Middle Atlantic States,
which comprise New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, District OF
Columbia, Delaware and Mary
land, said in part:
AGRICULTURE GAINS
'Dairy production, agriculture
and industrial development
showed a marked upward trend
in New York, Pennsylvania, and
in some sections Of New Jersey.
PayrOllS have increased and
prices for farm products have
advanced. There has, however,
been a significant decline in the
textile territory in New Jersey,
where the increase In farm pro-
ductiOn was only slight. An ex-
tended drought in the western
part Of New York and in Penn
SylVania curtailed farm and
dairy production, but its effects
were offset to some extent by
the higher prices received. The
continuation Of relief payments
has tended to eQualize any de-
crease in earning power in dis
tricts which have not gained
sufficient momentum in busi-
ness to take up the slack Of un-
employment. The improvement
in industrial and commercial
areas has given greater income
to a group Of people that would
be expected to save q Part OF
their earnings.
'The resulting savings totals
in the Middle Atlantic States
indicates the validity Of these
conclusions. Pennsylvania leads
with the greatest increase in
savings, S117,OS6, 900 and in this
area with the highest relative
rate, 5.3 per cent, and the most
new depOsitOrS, 1891. New
York is second with a gain in
deposits of $7S,S93,0O0, but only
about 1000 increase in depOSi-
tors. Maryland shows COnSid-
.erable rise in the number Of de-
pOSitOrS, with 36,29O gain, and
New Jersey with almost $1,000.
All the States in the district
show gains both in savings in
banks and in the number Of de-
pOSitOrS.
PER CAPITA SAVINGS
''This area shows q net rise
in savings per inhabitant over
the preceding year of 81 for
every person. New York is Sec
Ond only to Massachusetts in
the amount of savings per in
habitant, with an average Of
$544 for every person in the
State. The average for the dis
trict is $372 as compared with
S515 for the New England States,
1898 for the Pacific States, $41O
for Hawaii, Sill for the East
Central States, SAG for the West
Central States, and $39 for the
Southern States. Pennsylvania
and Maryland show an increase
also, while New Jersey, Delaware
and the District Of Columbia un-
derwent losses, that Of the Dis
trict Of Columbia being $29 or
Ia DAP cent"
