maturely from service annually
as the result OF cuts and bruises.
That is, they were until Japan

But now the hospitals" are
curing these ailments. Tires. no

TOMORROW NIGHT the De-
troit chapter Of the American
Institute OF Banking will hold its
fortieth annual banquet in the
Grand Ballroom of the Book
Cadillac Hotel.
Forty years Of Detroit banking
history covers some pretty stormy
episodes. but never in the history
Of the city have the banks been
better managed or rendered bet
ter service.
More important even than the
improvement on this score is the
trend toward more human,
friendly atmosphere in banks.
Gone-we hope forever-are the
old days Of frenzied finance when
a vice president looked YOU over
with jaundiced eye. trying to
figure out Just how much you
were worth to the bank in dollars
and cents.
Take il from me. some Of the
outstanding service jobs in the city
Of Detroit in the last few years
were performed by banks-and
they did them with an eye 10 civic
Ruty rather than to large profit.
a So perhaps it is fitting that the
guest speaker on this fortieth
anniversary should be a keen stu
dent of the human side of banking.
He is David Keith Stewart of
the Central National Bank. of
Cleveland. and his subject is
Human Reserves"
About 40 students in the bank
ing institutes educational courses
will receive diplomas and over 500
are expected to attend. First Vice
President w. c. Lombard will
present the documents and much
credit for the fine job done by the

WHY'S Aids Dealers

A plan 10 keep Americas
automobile dealers in business
during the war by converting
their shops into "depots" for the
sale OF blackout materials and
other civilian defense supplies
has been launched by officials of
Willys-Overland Motors. Details
of the program, which is already
in operation in several states,
were announced by George Har-
old Bell. director of sales for the
company.
He said the plan is based on
results Of the recent WHY'S SUR
vey among 10000 of these firms
which showed that a large per-
centage of The dealers are inter-
ested in using their shops as
sales centers for defense equip
ment. The study showed that
96 per cent Of the Alb dealers
responding 10 the questionnaires
are anxious 10 take on new lines
preferably defense items-and
that these shops have approx
mately $3.50 statesmen available
who can distribute the equip
ment.
AS first step In our program
To help dealers restore revenue
lost by the discontinuance of
new car production. We have
obtained exclusive distribution
rights on blackout shades manu-
featured by one Of the largest
firms In the business" Bell ex-
planned. "and are now busy as
signing territories to retailers

Just Getting Started

Aggregate sales by the end
OF this month promise TO reach
&.S50, 900, 900. This isn't enough.
But the campaign is only now
getting into its stride, especially
in the way of instituting weekly
deductions from wages and
salaries by employers. Corpora
tons. companies, institutions.
small businesses all over the
land are inaugurating this excel
lent method of helping to win
the war and encouraging regular
savings.
Two very worthwhile birds
are thus killed by one stone. In
my lifetime have met many
people who regretted spending
their. money but never one who
regretted having saved money.
Since the future is today alb
normally thick with uncertainty.
saving is extremely advisable.
For every wage Garner and
everybody else there is no better
method than setting aside as
much as possible each week to
accumulate government bonds.
