bank, mutually owned by those
who deposit money in it. and
these receive the benefit of all
the net earnings Of the bank.
Savings banks-which are in
operation in II states - may
offer other services, but the
primary emphasis is on savings.
A savings and loan association
is not a bank. 1t is usually a
mutual organization - meaning
it is owned by those who place
money in it-and it exists for
the basic purpose Of providing a
place where funds may be saved
and invested in the financing Of
homes.
Position Explained
Question: What position do I
hold when I put money in any
of these institutions?
Answer: When you put money
in a commercial bank, you are
lending your money to the bank
and you become a creditor.
When you put money in mu-
tual savings bank, you become
both a creditor and owner. The
bank owes you the money you
have deposited. You also are a
Ico-owner with the other deposit
tors and the net profits of the
bank go to you in the form Of
interest dividends or are placed
in reserve to give you added pro-
lection.
when you put money in saw
ings and loan association, you
become a shareholder and you
participate in the earnings of
that association just as you par
ticipate in the earnings of any
other corporation in which you
are a shareholder. You are never
creditor of a savings associa-
ton.
Funds Are Protected
Question: How are my funds
protected?
Answer: Each deposit in a
Federally chartered commercial
bank and each share account in
a Federally chartered savings
and loan association is auto
matically insured up to $4,000
by instrumentalities Of the
United States Government. The
banks are insured blythe Federal
Deposit Insurance Corp.-tht
FDIC. The savings and loan as.
sociations are insured by the
Federal Savings and Loan In
Surance Corp.-the FSL1C.
Mutual savings banks are
chartered by the states and they
have the option of being insured
either by the FDIC or in some
states by their own state deposit
insurance funds. Practically all
of course, are insured by one OF
the other.
State-chartered savings anc
loan associations also have thu
option of insuring funds place.
with them through the FSLIC
About half Of the state-chartereC
associations are insured. but il
terms of resources, this covers
around 81 per cent Of the funds

The era Of fiercest competition
for your saving dollar In over a
quarter-century is roaring to-
ward a climax.
Commercial banks, savings
banks, savings and loan asso-
ciations-all of them are now
openly wooing you, the saver.
with every weapon at their COM
Imand.
Advertising budgets are being
increased to all-time peaks.
From coast to coast, financial
institutions are raising the in
'terest and dividend rates they
pay on savings. Usually staid
banks are going in for the most
aggressive merchandising of their
services in history.
And for an understandable
reason: the demand for loans
ito finance industrial expansion,
build new homes, carry on ordi-
mary husinesS-has swelled to
massive proportions. The amount
of funds we're placing in finan-
lcial institutions is not keeping
up with the demand. Thus, the

self as it can so it viii have more

Confusion Likely
AS the competition skyrockets
you well may become a bit con-
fused by the claims of the vari-
GUS institutions.
If you're typical of the people
writing to me, you particularly
may be wondering:
Whats the difference be-

and what it means to you
