Through the practical Institution ot the postal savings bank system on Tuesday, January 3, the United States government will give the people facilities for saving a part of their earnings. TLo establishment of these banks Is regarded as the most far reaching financial step taken by the government since tho authorization of national banks, and their operation will be watched with interest ' by financiers throughout the world. The system Is to be Inaugurated on s comparatively small scale. One e In each state and territory has been selected as a depository. In those forty-eigh- t offices, n thorough test will be made. It was decided to make the beginning thus small, sot only because no adequate appropriation was available to put It Into general operation, but also because the plan adopted differs entirely from that of any other system in the world. No passbooks will be furnished depositors, but all deposits will be evidenced by engraved postal savings certificates, Issued In fixed denominations of 1, 3., 5, 10, 320 and 350, each bearing the name of the depositor and the date on which Interest begins to teense, By the terms of the law, no account for lean than $1 may be opened and no person may deposit more than 3100 In any calendar month, or have to his credit at any ons time more than 3600, exclusive of accumulated Interest Accounts may be opened by an person over 10 years old, in bis or her own name, and by married women in their own names.
