nanta Totaling; Many Mil.

Officials at Washington announce that
the wa In Europe Is proving; a big boon
to postal savings In this country. From
the very day hostilities opened postal sav
ings receipts began to Increase and with
drawals fell off. a result quite contrary
to the predictions of many well Informed
persons, who in their imagination, saw
lines of feverish depositors at postoffice
pay windows anxious to again return their
savings deposits whence they came before
Intrusted to Uncle Sam.
Two Important results have followed;
thousands or peopto largely of. foreign
birth, accustomed to send their savings
abroad, are now patrons of the postal
savings system, and enormous sums of
actual cash have been released for com
mercial uses among Americans at a time
when the need for every available dollar
Is pressing.
The growth of postal savings In the
United States has been steady and
healthy and the system has filled an im
portant gap between the depository and
the factory paymaster. On July I, when
affa'rs were running smoothly here and
abroad and the transmission of money
across the Atlantic was safe and ex
peditious, there was approximately 143,
000,000 of postal savings standing to the
credit of about 3;8,0OO depositors. Since
then over $10 000,000 of deposits have been
added and the number of depositors has
Increased enormously. This unprecedented
gain is the more striking when It !s con
sidered that the net gain In the last three
months Is larger than the gain for the
entire fiscal year 1D14. Scores of offices
have done more postal savings business
since the war has been going on than
was done by them during the previous
existence of the service. The Inrreaws
are confined to no special localities, but
have been felt In every nook and corner
of the country. New Hork City alono
made a gain in September of more than
a million, while Brooklyn showed a
relatively big Increase, Chicago reported
a larger gain In tho last three months
than for the previous twelve months.
More than 7,000 new accounts were opened
during the period, bringing the number
of depositors In that city up to over
a.000.
The unexpected Increase In postal sav
ings business has not only added greatly
to the general administrative duties of
the system, but has brought up many
new and Interesting problems which
have called for the careful personal con
sideration of Postmaster General Burle
son and Governor Docker?, third as
sistant postmaster general. But their
task has been lightened somewhat by the
promptness of depository banks In fur
nishing additional security to tneet the
abnormal ' deposits. A number of the
very largest banks in the country, which
have heretofore declined to qualify ns
depositories for postal savings funds, are
now among tbs eager applicants for
them.

NEW MODEL MAXWELL .
HAS UNIQUE FEATURE
With Us many new features the 191i
Maxwell touring car has won its way
into the hearts of thousands of Amer
ican autornobillsts, not only because of
its beauty and mechanical perfection
but because of the many uses to which
it can be put.
Several . farmers, 'owners of Maxwell
touring cars, have converted their cars
Into temporary stationary engines and
have cut their ensilage, sawed wood and
even pumped water for their stock by
this means.
Doctors and traveling men, whose over
land routes have almost forced them ol
necessity to buy a car, find that tht I
Maxwell well fulfills every requirement
placed upon it Its hill climbing ability1
makes the Maxwell Invaluable in hilly J
country, while sand and mud literally
"melt away" under the power of the
Maxwell engine.
