ate cash outlay. Applicants fol
Coop membership may pur,
chase a share of Class A Com
mon Stock membership stock
by submitting a sinplified form
to the credit union in their plant
or they may join the Co-Or
Credit Union by turning in the
form at Coop Headquarters
sos Adams Street, currently be-
ing shared by the Coop Credi'
Union and the Coop itself.
Shops Have Forms
Shop stewards, committeeman
and credit union officers are be-
ing, supplied with the necessary
forms, which combine what
would customarily be four OF
five seperate sheets and cards
necessary for credit union trans
actions. The applicant simply
fills in the APPLICANTS state
ment' and places his signature
and address where indicated
noting whether the form is to be
forwarded to the plant credit
union or to the Coop Credit
Union. There are no restrictions
against anyone belonging to
more than one credit union.
Voted Coop Support
Mrs. Louise Nation, president
of the Toledo Chapter of Credit
Unions told the delegates at the
chapter meeting last Wednesday
evening, Long ago we voted
support of the Coop in a chap
ter meeting. Now we are trans
lating this into terms of concrete
and immediate action which will
enable anyone in this area to
join the Coop whether he has
the $25 or not, at a cost of only
one per cent per month on the
unpaid balance. In many in
stances the person may take up
to six months to complete his
payments. Surely this will bring
thousands of new members into
the Coop, and many new credit
union members as well. 1t is up
to us to help put this proposal
before as many people as we
can"
The Toledo Chapter embraces
approximately seventy-five area
credit unions. Many plants al
ready have a voluntary check
off arrangement for credit union
deposits and payments. All
plants are urged to negotiate di-
rect check-off facilities, desig-
mating payment either to the
local plant credit union, the Co.
Op Credit Union, or directly to
the Toledo Consumers Coopera-
tive, Inc.
