EMPLOYES' GREDIT UNIONS SHOW GAIN More Than 800 Are Now Functioning in U. S.—Aid Small Borrowers. BY JOHN F. SINCLAIR. NEW YORK, June 19.—There are now more than 800 employe ecredit | unions in the United States. They have | been growing rapidly for the last two | years. So far, 27 States have passed legisla- tion governing the formation and oper- | ation of such employe associations. | Credit unions, long an important factor in European life, demonstrate the soundness of the position some of the larger banks in the United States have recently adopted—that is, that finan- cial accommodations to small borrowers unable to give banking collateral for loans are not only an urgent need but a legitimate and feasible banking service. All of this spells the death knell of the loan shark, who has gouged the small-salaried employe, often out of his | last nickel. Recently a study was made of this subject by the National Industrial Con- ference Board. In the report the board has endeavored to classify the many plans in proper groups, ranging from elementary forms providing for deposits | of small sums with banking institutions to comprehensive plans, including adaptation of the investment trust principle and the building and loan as- soclation idea Every effort which goes to expand the | co-operative credit movement should be supported. By the end of 1929 one will be able to travel by air from Montreal to Santiago, Chile, across the Lower Andes to Buenos Aires, and to return by way Montreal. This is another way of saying that air lines are springing up. connecting important cities throughout South America. Many of them are operating on daily schedules. The greatest de- velopment in aerial travel in South America so far is in Colombia and Peru. Both countries are rich As early as eight years ago the “Scadta” was operating a weekly air line service over the Magdalena River as far inland as Girardot, about 800 miles from the Atlantic Coast. Now | this city, virtually unknown to North | America, is connected by train with | Bogota. There are few good roads in | South America, and rallroads are ex- | pensive to build, hence the rapid de- | velopment of airplane travel, | It looks as though the more progres- | sive of the South American republics | might become world leaders in aviation. | Deaths from automobile accidents increased in the 78 large cities of the United States during the four weeks | ending May 18, according to the De- | partment of Commerce figures. The | number of deaths, 582, is an increase | of 45 over the same period a year | ago. Most of the deaths occurred in accidents within city limits. Considering four-week periods dur- ing the last four years, beginning May 1, 1925, the lowest total, 346, was for the four weeks ending March 27, 1926, and the highest, 771, for the four- week period ending December 29, 1928. Among sizable cities having no deaths from automobile aceidents dur- ing the last four-week period reported, with Flint, Memphis and Spokane, while those having only one death were El Paso, Erle, Lowell, Nashville, New Bed- ford, Syracuse, Waterbury, Wilming- ton, Worcester and Kansas City, Ka: For the next three months, au mobile drivers should be particularly careful, for these are usually the high- death-from-accident months. There is some sentiment in certain | banking circles for revamping the Fed- eral Reserve System and modeling it more closely along the lines of the Bank of England. Today the Federal Reserve System is run by 108 directors (9_directors in each of the 12 banks). In addition to these directors must be included the 8 members of the Fed- eral Reserve Board at Washington, making a total of 116. When an important matter of policy is decided upon, there is almost sure to be a wide difference of opinion in the present reserve system. Not o in the Bank of England. | Of course, the Bank of England | stands at the head of a closely-knit banking system, in which the bulk of | the country's resources are in the hands of five banks. None of them, how- ever, has the right to issue banknotes, which is the sole prerogative of the Bank | of_England. Tradition gives the Bank of England power. It has a history of 225 years, it is unified in control and its cohesion | is relatively easy. It is often sald that the American central bank di- | rectors are sometimes subject to politi- | cal influences, yet the Bank of England | has also had much criticism in recent | years, but lately, through Sir Joshua Stamp and Sir Basil Blackett, it has | helped to allay the feeling that it -is | not representative of the cemmercial | interests, | Nevertheless, the Federal Reserve | system, when' organized, had to con- sider the fact that there were 27,000 independent and distinct banking units in the United States at the time. Should the branch bank system come into vogue in the United States, uni- | fication of the central banks naturally would follow. Until then, it is rather doubtful if any great change will be made in the organization. The change toward unification in banking authority is already under way in the United Sfates A successful American exporter was | discussing the qualities which, to him were most needed for success in the growing export field. ‘To study and know the customs, habits | and thought life of other people was He referred to the trade mark of an American firm which had on it the picture of a dog. uld that firm do business he said, am afraid it would have to modify its trade mark, for | the Chinese have a very low regard for dogs.” Dr. Julius Klein tells of a manufac- turer who stamped the image of a| rabbit on his goods. He attempted to sell his goods in China and found he had made a great error, for rabbits, too, are not popular there. Certain exporters of fruit from the | United States have found it necessary | to change the color combinations of their boxes going to the Far East, be- cause the original colors did not appeal to the Chinese people. On the other hand, an American condensed milk concern made an ex- cellent impression with a label on its cans showing a baby, and under this a | caption, “It's a Boy.” Why? Because | the Chinese are primarily interested in 0ys. All these things, which appear rather simple and unimportant in the United | States and Canada, often become of | large importance in forelgn trade. It is Just as necessary to be careful in these small details as it is to see that the goods sent abroad are exactly as rep- resented. Both American and Canadian business interests are learning rapidly all of the fine points in the export game. Their | increasing trade to all parts of the world | proves this. | (Copyright, 1929. by North American News- | paper Alliance.)

This was an increase of 82,872 cars above the preceding week this year, | when loadings were reduced owing to | the observance of the Decoration day holiday.

BALTIMORE, June 19.—Creation of a $6,500.000 ice cream merger here is !'seen in the filing of certificates of in- corporation for four concerns. The charters were filed with the State Tax Commission by local attorneys, for New York interests. The four new corporations will be similar or identical in name with four existing Baltimore concerns. These lat- ter, it is stated, will be dissolved. The new concerns have a group of incor- | porators and directors, all resident in New York or New Jersey The new conc Creamery Co., Inc., succeeding Hendler Creamery Co.. Inc.; Supreme Ice Cream Co., Inc.. succeeding the Supreme Ice Cream Co.; Horn Ice Cream Co., Inc., succeeding the Horn Ice Cream Co..and Clover Ice Cream Co., Inc., succeeding the Clover Ice Cream Co. Capitalization of the four new com- panies is as follows: Hendler, 25.900 shares; Supreme, 10,000 shares; Horn 30.000 sheres; Clover, 50 shares. the par value in cach instance being $100. The belief here is that the New York interests have acquired the four existing Baltimore concerns, that new com- panies have been formed to supersede them and that these new companics may, in turn, become subsidiaries in a vast combine 'of ice cream manufactur- ing concerns. are: Hendler Pan-American Petroleum & ‘Trans- port may make a new offer of exchange to minority stockholders of Lago Pe- troleum.

Kolynos Dry-Brush Technique Removes the ““Yellow” Without Injury to the Enamel. Here’s the new way to clean teeth. It whitens them in a new and amazing way. It makes even the dullest and yellowest teeth radiantly white, and without the slightest injury to the enamel! It is called the Kolynos Dry-Brush Technique and consists of the use of a half inch of Kolynos Dental Cream on a dry tooth brush. The use of a dry brush means that you use Kolynos, a_highly concen- trated dental cream, full strength; also that the brush bristles then remain stiff enough to scrub the tooth surfaces roperly and penetrate the crevices gnvefl\ the teeth, and the pits and fissures in the grinding surfaces. %2Inchon a Dry Brush You can use Kolynos on a dry brush because it foams profusely in the mouth. The secret formula contains one ingredient that causes it to whip instantly into a surging foam. This foam is active and antiseptic. It “works” on the mucin coating on teeth like millions of tiny fingers, breaking it up and washing it com- pletely off the teeth. Teeth are cleaned down to the naked white enamel without injury. The foam pushes its way into all the tiny crevices in the mouth. It penctrates where no “inert” tooth paste can go. It cleans out and disin- fects all those places where food par- ticles lodge and cause decay. Get a tube of Kolynos today. Put it to the test and see the difference in your teeth in 3 days!
