ER I R TR ANK GONNISSIONERS REPORT | - What They Say About Thames Loan And Trust, Windham County Savings And Putnam Savings Bank—Deposits | Increased By $9,014,394 Past Year. The bank commissioners, Fred P. Holt and Norris S. Lippitt, have just placed in the hands of the governor their annual report, covering savings banks, trust companies having savings depariments both as of Oct. 1, 1918, together with the annual statements of the state banks and trust companies, | showing their condition at the close of business on Aug. 9, 1913, the date of the last call. 3 1-3 Per Cent. Gain. The total amount on deposit in all the banks under the jurisdiction of this department on Oct. 1, 1912, was| $244,094,310.37, and on Oct, 1, 1913, was, $356,870,789.05, a gain of $11,876,419.65, or 3 1-3 per cent. in total deposits, which shows a healthy condition, th report says. Regarding Banks Closed. Regarding financial institutions | towards which the bank commission- ers have found it necessary to exercise ! their powers in restraining continuance | the of business, port: Thé Windham County Savings bank, which was under a restraining order at the time of our last annual report, continued in this condition until the} time when, acting with the approval of the attorney general, we asked to have a receiver appointed to wind up its affairs. The case was delayed in commissioners re- the court, not coming to trial until | Sept. 1913, During the- trial the | counsel for, the bank offered to bring about -immediate and complete Shasys o thebrigrimernt of the 1 stitution and we were glad to dis- continue the suit and thus save the institution to the commaunity. This change in management has taken place. We are, therefore, gratified to report that the outlook for this bank is very bright. Greenwich Savings Bank. Late in the year we found the de- positors’ ledgers in the Greenwich Sav- ings bank in such a tangled condition that we were unable to arrive at a cor- rect total of its deposits. Under these circumstances we -could not have al- Jowed a dividénd to be declared in Jan- uary. We realized that, if the dividend were passed and heavy Wwithdrawals made, an injustice would be done to such depositors as failed to withdraw, We deemed It best for all concerned, theréfore to close the institutlon and take possession of it until a thorough audit shonld reveal its exact condition, This audit is now being made by com- petent accountants. We hope to be able to report the bank solvent and re- turn it to its diréctors in a few weeks. Thames Loan and Trust The Thames Loan and Trust com- pany of Norwich was closed on our motion on April 16th. [Later a receiver was appointed who is now settling its affairs. Tts condition had given us much concern for a considerable period before it seemed necessary to close it. In accordancé with Chapter 79, Pub- lic Acts 1918, we notified the Columbia Trust company of Middletown on May 28th that an impairment of its capi- tal must be made good by August 1, 1913. On August 2d, the tristees voted to terminate its corporate existence and it is now being liquidated under authority of the superior court. Putnam Savings Bank. On December 29th the assets of the Putnam_Savings bank were found to be insufficient to meet its liabilities so that we, acting in concert with the counsel of the bank, issued an order restraining the bank from receiving de- posits or paying out funds. The bank has an earning power of approximate- Iy $120,000 gross-per annum. We hope, therefore, that it will be able to re- sume before any serious inconvenlence results, Under former conditions the powers of the commissioners were éxceedingly limited, but the legislature of 1912 ex- tended their powers to a degree where it has been found possible to remedy intolerable conditions. It is a source of regret that for the protection of the depositors we have found it necessary to use these powers Pimples Will Not Be Pardoned The Failure to Use Stuart's Calcium | Wafers, a Proved Remedy for | Pimples, Convicts You of Un- pardonable Negligence.

In accordance with the enacted in 1913 this ~ annual statute or the securities owned by savings ‘banks and trust companies, 15,495 More Deposits. The annual report of the bank commissioners points out that de- positors in the savings banks of Con- necticut increased by 15,945 for the year ending Sept. 30, last, as com- pared with the previous fiscal year and this increase was represented by the sum of $9,014,349 added to the sum total of the previous years de- posits. On Oct 1 last the peopte of the state—622,087 depositors out of the { estimated population of 1,176,621—had on deposit $307,526,397. The average due each depositor was $494.35, an in- crease of $1.88 per head over the year before. On the basis of population, as fig- ured out by the state board of health, the savings banks have an equivalent of about $260 on deposit for each per- son in Connecticut, That the working people of the state save money is further shown by the fact that 528,301 persons have deposits of less than $1,000 each, an increase for the vear of 13,020, while their de- posits total $107,803,206, an increase of $2,409,458. In the year 92,837 new ac- counts were opened. Dividends paid to depositors totalled $11,596,577. The expense upon banks of caring for de- posits averaged $2.56 per $1,000. Legislature Favored Recommendations The recommendations we made in our last annual report-as being essen- tial strengthen the department were practically all acted upon favor- ably by the legislature of 1913, with the result that the state of Connecti- cut is generally conceded to have now the best banking laws of any state in the union. One of the most important laws that the legislature passed was that requir- ing_semi-annual trial balances. Once in five yes this semi-annual balance is to be made by certified public ac- countants. A number of banks are having this balance taken by acceunt- ants at the present time. A law was passed creating a bank- ing commission, composed of the bank commissioners and the state treasurer, which commission is empowered to issue certificates of authority to new banks and trust companies where it considers public convenience and ad- vantage would be promoted. AGRICULTURAL INSTRUC—TION IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS Advocated by Resolution Presented Be- fore State Grange Meeting. The second day’s meeting of the twenty-ninth annual session of the Connecticut state grange began Wed- nesday at Footguard hall, at Hartford, at 9 m. It afforded the last oppor- tunity for the introduction of new bus- iness. A resolution advocating that a law be enacted making instruction in agri- culture compulsory in grades 7 and 8 of public schools’ was introduced by Allison P, Smith of Newtown. Charles H. Potter of Woodstock pre- sented a resolution protesting against the rate of $9.90 per year as the min- imum rate for farmers protected by insurance, companies under the com- pensation act. State Lecturer Frank E. Blakeman, after reading his annual report pre- | sented a resolution expressing disap- proval of the compensation act and radical amendment at the next session of the general assem- | bly. These resolution were referred the proper committees. At the afternoon session Rev. F. A. of Milford delivered an ad- dress on The Place of the Church in the Rural Community, and Mrs. George S. Ladd spoke on The Country Home. There was exemplification of the first degree by the degree team of Burritt grange. to GOOD WORDS FOR BALTIC CHURCH ATTENDANCE.

It has been said that this brook has a drainage area of nearly 30 square miles and at Poverty Hollow, while it might be necessary to wipe out the entire village, including many homes, the school house, the changing of many highways, ete, still with the natural conditions, it would be possi- ble to bulld storage reservoirs that would act as distributing reservoirs, that is to store the water until needed or even to use for power purposes, as these reservoirs would contain several billion gallons of water.

Tn a Rhode Island newspaper two of the political opinions of Gilbert L. Hewitt were quoted this week, one stating that the progressives would have a city ticket for the election in June and the other prophe- sying that Charles Comstock would be the next governor of Connecticut. Mr. Hewitt that he did not believe the Norwich progressives’ ticket would be elected, but that the republican split state, which commenced with the 1910 convention row, Goodwin vs, Lake, would elect Comstock, said on Wednesday that his remarks made from what he had heard talked Mr, Comstock was seen at his of- fice in the Shannon building. the radius of the Norwich Bulletin yes- terday.
