Loan Reports
A Good Year
A 17 per cent gain in total as
sets was reported today by Robert
C. Knox, executive vice president,
East Cleveland Savings and Loan
Company, setting a record high for
the 34 year history of the company.
Mr. Knox said that the com
pany’s assets increased from
$8,568, 817. 21 on December 31,
1953, to $10, 028, 452.69, on the
same date this year. “This fine
growth,” Knox commented, “re
flects the confidence of the citi
zens of East Cleveland in this
specialized thrift and home owner
ship institution.”
Highlights of the company’s an
nual report were listed as follows:
1. Net savings in 1954 increased
by $1,412,307,91, or 19.3 per cent,
bringing total savings to $8,740,
938.78.
2. Dividends paid out to savers
during the year totaled $203,929.36.
3. Home loans increased both in
into ten groups consisting of ten
girls each. Each girl played at
least five games with other girls
in her group. These games being
finished the girls with the fewest
losses was selected out of each
group to participate in the single
elimination finals. by Nancy
Erickson.
number and amount. Total home
loans outstanding now amount to
$8,859,012.46, an increase of 20.2
per cent.
4. The company added $130,
299.38 to its reserve fund in the
past year, increasing its reserves
to $737, 376.17, or 8.4 per cent
of savings.
Such gains, Mr. Knox said, were
of “great significance” since they
came at a time of moderate busi
ness decline, and some unemploy
ment. This would seem to indicate
that the people of East Cleveland
have realized the importance of
saving a portion of their income
each year for things they wish to
buy in the future, as well as for
financial security.
Mr. Knox described the outlook
for business in the coming year as
“highly favorable.” Home building
in the coming year would most
likely equal this year’s levels. De
mand for new homes continued
strong, with demand greatest for
larger, well-designed, well-equip
ped and well-located houses.
Prices of most new homes should
remain stable, "with some improve
ment in quality” likely. In 1955
the home buyer should be able to
get more house for the same
amount of money than in 1954, he
concluded.
