Kiwanis Club Hears
Building & Loan Man

Ed Kuykendall, executive vice.
president of the North Carolina
Savings and Loan League, adj
dressed the Kiwanis Club at its
weekly meeting Tuesday evening
at the Carolina Inn. He said the
functions of savings and loan as
sociations were to handle saw
ngs accounts and to make long
term loans, but not to handle
checking accounts.
Mr.. Kuykendall said there
were ITS such associations in
North Carolina and 5000 in the
nation. These 5000, he said,
make 40 per cent of all CT loans
for building houses and one
third of all loans for houses. He
also said that 55 per cent of the
families in the United States
owned their own homes.
Home ownership acts as a
stabilizing influence in our econ
omy and our way of life," the
speaker said.
