odd money order fpostoffices throughout conceived the idea during his trip to
the United States. The postal savings J Europe last summer. He there saw the
bank bill was passed only last congress, f complicated machinery of other nations,
nd the business was started with $100,- the most of it based on the system de
000. This was to establish 48 banks, vised by Gladstone, whih has been
each state navimr one. wnen, congress
anefc a sain in the spring more banks
were startea. jjoiry-wve auaiLiuuaa
ones were in operation in April, 36 more
were added in June, and from that time
on thev have one ahead at the rate
of 50 per week. At the ' beginning of
the year the 48 which were ftfst started
had taken in only about $75,uu0;rbut
with the new banks the deposits nave
quadrupled, and they will soon amount
to $1,000,000 or more.
Two Billions of Hoarded Treasure.
Indeed, it is" impossible to prophesy
how much money will come into the
postoffices. The amount will run into
the hundreds of millions. It can do
that and still not affect the -banking j
institutions wluch weave today, lhe
officials of the treasury department,
who keep track of the money in circu
lation and in .the banks say that there
is an enormous summot accounted for
which lies idle, either in hiding or in
the -pockets of the people. This amount
is more than two thousand million dol
lars. It is enough to give '$100 to every
family in the United States and enough
to buy the steel trust and leave some
thing over for a few railroads or so. It
is about 2 percent of the aggregate
wealth of the nation, and if it could be
collected together into one pile it would
almost pay the national debt twice over.
Take it out of hiding and turn it into
government bonds and we should not
have to borrow a cent from outsuie na
tions, and at the same time would have
enough surplus capital to complete the
Panama canal and dig a ditch big
enough for the largest ocean steamers
ironi the great lakes to the gulf.
Similar hoards have existed in all
contries, although nowhere to such an
excfcnt as in ours. We are the richest
of the nations, and we have more loose
money than any of the others. Take
for instance the Hindus, where the
standard is so low that you can hire a i
man for 10 cents a da3, and where many
of the people figure on how much they
will eat for supper in order to know
whether they will have enough Isft for
breakfast. That country is known to
"have a hoard in gold or silver or jewels
hid away under its floors, and since the
British government has established pos
tal savings banks there $500,000,000
have beem taken out and deposited, and
the accounts in the postoffices are al
most one million in number.
Uncle Sam's New Banking' System.
But how about taking care of a busi
ness like this?
Think of the work of handling 40,000
different banks, each of which has hun
dreds of deposit accounts!
Think of the deposits and withdraw
als, of calculating the interest and of
keeping the accounts where the loss of
& cent in the balance may set a clerk
crazy, as is common in the banks of
today!
These are some of the troubles that
are agitating the other nations which
have similar banks and are costing them
millions. It is so in Great Britain,
where a big building at London is de
voted to keeping the books. The banks
have been in operation thsre for 25
years, and the separate accounts are
1,000,000 in number, while the total de
posits now equalv $781,000,000. The cost I
ui uie inaciune is sucn xnat unaer
stand the business is run at a loas. Sim
ilar books are kept in France, Germany
and in nearly every civilized counjry
on the face of the globe.
This was one of the difficulties which
faced Uncle Sam when he took hold of
the problem. Our postal savings-bank
business is bound to be twice as large
as thpt of any other nation, and, should
we carry it on in the same way, Theo
dore L. Weed, the chief clerk of the
postoffice department and the secretary
of the board of banking trustees, tells
me, we should have to establish, in time,
a great accounting system here at
Washington, with a great force of clerics
to keep track of the moneys in these
thousands of offices scattered over more
than 3.000.000 square miles.
Nevertheless, we have begun the busi
ness without a cent of additional ex
pense -for clerical hire. And, moreover,
the prospect is that it will bfi carrinil nn
without any material change in our gov-
eminent machinerv when . rf ,

An Idea Worth Millions.
For the invention which has done
away with this enormous bookkeeping
Uncle Sam is indebted to Prank Hitch
cock, his postmaster general. It is ai
invention -worth millions, for it is esti-

was the use of the passbook, which in
England meant the posting of the cTe-
j posit books of 15,000 offices, and of
keepmg sets of books for them. It in
volved the employment of 2000 clerks in
London, and of a great bookkeeping es
tablishment there. In our own country
the offices would surely be three times
as many as in Great Britain, and they
will probably be 50,000 or 60,000 or
more. To handle them on the European
system was evidently very expensive,
and 2St. Hitchcock, in working over the
matter, originated a plan whereby the
accounts would to a great extent keep
themselves; and that twithout mistake.
Certificates vs. Bank Books.
This plan was he wiping out of the
-passbook, and the issuance of drafts or
certificates of deposit. This has been
installed, and it is. the present system.
The depositor hands in his money, but
in place of having a credit made on a
bank book he is given a certificate of
deposit for the amount he puts- in.
The certificates are in the denomina-.
tions 'of $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $50 and
$100, and they bear interest at the rate
of 2 percent per annum. Thev are
neither transferable nor negotiable, and
are not worth anything except in the
hands of the person buying them. They
are issued in duplicate, and the original
and duplicate must each bear the signa
ture of the depositor. The duplicate is
retained -by the postmaster, and if the
man would withdraw his deposit he
must bring back the original, and sign
his name in the presence of th nosimns-
ter, who compares it with the signature
on the. duplicate. It is after iusf. th
I tome method that the traveler's cheeks
t sued by banks and express companies
are -casnea au over the world today, and
the same as that used in letters of
credit. One might forge another man's
signature, but it takes great skill to
make such a forgery offhand in the
presence of the man you are trying to
aeiraua.
If a certificate of deposit, should be
lost or destroyed itan be duplicated 4y
applying to the postmaster, the signa
ture, made in this way, being, evidence of
the claim. Thfe ptmaster -keeps a
record of these duplicates', not in a book,
but in a set of manila jackets or en
velopes after the card index system,
each manila jacket bearing the name
of a depositor and having in it that de
positor's duplicate. It is as simple as
rolling off a log.
It Is Foolproof.
Arain the flfipd nf hnnWoaninrr ?o
avoided by the fact that deposits are
and that the money has to be left in one
year to draw interest, the interest be
ginning only on the first day of the
month. The depositor knows that if he
takes out any money in less than a year
he loses his interest. If he leaves it in
for one year he gets 2 percent; and he
must leave it in two years to get 4 per
cent. In other words, there are no -fractions
to be considered. The system seems
to be -foolproof. . The depositor knows
just what is coming to him. He can
drafw ;as much or as little as he pleases,
provided the denominations are right;
and when his money is all drawn "the
tearing up of the manila jacket closes
the account and wipes his name from
the government, rolls. In fact, there is
no other record.
Dot Intended for Millionaires.
These banks are not intended for -mil
lionaires. In fact, the most that any
one can have on deposit at any one time
is $500: and it is not possible to deposit
more than $100 in any one month. When
the first 48 banks were opened many
farmprs came in with sums Tanging from
$1000 to $10,000, and were surprised
when they were told that only $100
could be taken per month. One old wo
man called at the postoffice department
here in Washington. She had a big fat
pocketbook with her which contained the
savings of years. She said that she had
lost her money in private bank failure
25 years ago and that since that time
she had been praying for a government
bank where her funds would be safe.

and said she -would return monthlv un
til her account had reached the iimit;
while at the same office a man -who was
refused the chance to put in $500 at
a lump said he did not care to open
an account wherp the money went in on
such small installments.
A Chance for Women and Children.
These banks will be patronized by the
women and children. The laws provide
that a husband has no control of the
deposits made bv his wife, nor guar
dians any control over those made by
their wards. Even the children can
deposit, and their parents cannot get
the money except hy their consent and
by their signatures in the .presence of
the postmaster. Any boy -who has a
dime may bein an account by bu3ang
a postal savines card, upon which he
can paste nine other 10-cent postal sav
ings stamps, which he mav buy a3 he
gets the money. When the 90 cents'
worth of stamps have been stuck on
the card, it represents a dollar, and may
be exchanged for a dollar deposit draft
at the ppstofifice. His name then goes
into a manila jacket, and he 13 one of "the

Suggestion for the Benevolent.
In all places where the banks have
been established many children are
among the depositors. In some in
stances postmaster have been asked to
address the public school children on .the
system, and school teachers from all
parts of the country are writing the de
partment for information, concerning it.
At one of the Pennsylvania offices a
boy has opened an account in order that
he may have a start in life when he is
through school, and in other places men
are opening accounts for children and
starting them on the way tosave. One
"philanthropic man in Owen&rjoro, Ky.,
) has purchased postal savings cards for
all the public school children ot That
town, 'his idea being to encourage thrift
through the use of this goveramnis sys
tem. This seems to be an excallent i.lea
and I suggest it to such of you as have
a charitable dollar to put where it will
brinsr biff results. Take a village or
town which has 1000 school children. An
investment of $100 in these 10-cent pos -
tai savings caras wouia stare zae cuii-
dren of that whole town to saving, and
would be better charity than the pau
perizing indiscriminate gift-giving which
is so common today. One might take the
children of a single school or class and
do the same. Indeed, this system of
giving is subject to countless variations.
Government Bonds for Savings Bank
Depositors.
Connected with the postal savings
bank act is a provision by which the
certificates of deposit may be used to
buv government bonds. This went into
effect the 1st of July, and many bonds
have already been purchased. The law
provides that postal savings, in the sums
of $20, $40, $"60, $S0 and $100, and mul
tiples of $l00 and $500, may be turned
in for bonds, which shall be in the above
denominations,, and shall bear interest at
the rate of 2 1-2 percent per annum,
payable semi-annually. These oonds
cannot be bought except by postal sav-
ings bank depositors, but they are so

They will be sold to such depositors at
par. They are exempt from taxation,
and they will probably have a market
value somewhat higher than at the rate
they are sold to depositors. This, at is
thought, will add to the stability of
our government. Every man who owns
such a bond will want to support 'the
government and will feel that he has at
part in it. It will probably result fn,.&
great part of our bonds, which are now
held by the rich, here and in other coun
tries, going into the hands of the people.
Patronized by Foreigners.
So far we have thousands of foreicm-
ers who have been taking out deuosit3
in these new postal savings banks. These.
men know the postal savings banks of
their own countries, and they have faith
in ours because thev are backed ov the
government. Postmaster general Hitch
cock tells me that vast sums have an
nually been sent abroad -by the foreign
element oi this country m order that
they may be deposited in the banks of;
direct and some is sent to friends, who
put it in the postal savings banks of
their respective countries.
In the four years ending with 1909,
more than $312,000,000 of such money
orders were issued, and a large part of
them were for savings deposits. Xow
that the postoffice bank has been es
tablished, a great deal of this money
will go into it. This has been the case
ii the banks opened in the mining
camps, where many foreigners are em
ployed. It is so. also, in the milling
centers and in all laboring towns. At
one of the Pennsylvania offices a group
of foreigners, both men and women,
called to see tihe postmaster, and on be
in informed that they could only de
posit $100 each, they went away, say-

number of depositors and amount of de
posits is rapidly growing, and that as
to every branch of the business. The
deposits of the stations first opened
have a larger ratio or increase every
week, and the growth at the new sta
tions is proportionately rapid. At the
(present issue the deposits at the 48
original postoffices at the close of a
year from their date of opening will
amount to over $800,000, and if the sys
tem should be extended to all the money
order offices it will at the same ratio
at the end of the first year thereafter
have something like $200,000,000 on de
posit. In the building of new postoffices' the
government will put in special offices
for the savings banks. This will be
the case in the new postoffice at Wash
ington, D. C, which is soon to be built,
and eventually similar arrangements
will have to be made in all the large
cities.
The most surprising feature of the
work so far is the ease with which it is
handled. The new banks are running
without complications. There, have been
no objections from the local savings in
stitutions and the postoffices promise
to bring a vast amount of new money
into circulation. Indeed the postal sav
ings bank is the greatest financial suc
cess of this administration.
