The" following communication from Thos.j. Fitzmorris. Sccretnrv of tho Nebraska League of Building nn Loan Associations to T. C. Patterson tolls its own tale: Tho bulldlnc. savings and loan asso ciations ot Nelirnsku Incrcnscd tholr resources to an unexpected extent during tho fiscal year ending with Juno last. Advance copies of official reports called for by tho Stato Bu reau of Banking show an all round business gain of 7 per cent over tho banner year of 1920. Tho gain In that boom year was 18 por cent. Tho two fiscal years marked a com- pleto reversal of business conditions'. Irt tho first tho country's business climbed to tho highest peaks of In flated prosperity. In tho other caso tho collapso of the boom and swift descent to tho bottom. Few lines of business camo out of tho crash with out taking a loss. Still fowor scorort an increase in volume of business at tho lowor lovel of values. In spito ot these retarding conditions, tho associ ations of the State increased their re sources by ?0,OOCK,000, carrying tho total for the Stato to tho new hlgli lovel ot $84,000,000. The figures are based on reports from thirty-seven leading associa tions doing 9,0 per cent ot the business in the state, compiled oy t. J. nu morris. Secretary of tho Nebraska League of Savings and Loan Assocla tlons. Tho assets of the reporting as sociations, JUno 30, 1920, was ?70. 792,534. On June 30 last, their assets totaled $7G,478,C54, a net in crease of $5,G8G,120, equal to 7.3-10 per cent. Increases are fairly oven through out tho State. Should tho percentage of gain hold good among associations whose reports are not at hand, tho not increase will bo $G,207,829, or one half the 1920 gain, lifting tho total re courses form $77,930,337 In 1920 to I$84,147,1GG in 1921. , Not much relief in the housing sit uation Is shown In tho reports. Heavy withdrawals and tight money reduced home loans to, about,, one-half the re cord of 1920.' Thirty-six associations report 1480 loans for the erection of dwellings and 3107 loans on other buildings.
