REPO RT OF THE

[Pub. Doc.

The 196 savings banks doing business report assets amounting to
over $1,078,000,000 and deposits amounting to over $997,000,000,
represented by 2,457,269 accounts, an average of $406.02 to each
account.
During the year there has been placed to the credit of depositors
more than $36,785,000 in dividends. The guaranty fund amounting
to $47,108,302.92, is 4.72 per cent, of the amount of deposits. The
increase in the deposits has been nearly $69,000,000; this is almost
double the amount of the increase in any previous year. Such a
marked increase is significant.
There are 91 trust companies with combined assets of $660,358,042.88, of which $514,257,082.30 are the assets of their commercial
banking departments, $44,231,327.12 the assets of their savings de­
partments and $101,869,633.46 the assets of their trust departments.
There are now 183 co-operative banks doing business in this Com­
monwealth with total assets of about $113,305,000, belonging to
236,760 shareholders.
There are 53 credit unions doing business, with aggregate assets
of $816,443.08, showing an increase during the past year of $384,843.60 in assets and of 6 in number.
The combined assets of the savings banks, the trust companies and
the co-operative banks, together with the Massachusetts Hospital
Life Insurance Company and the branch of the Bank of Nova Scotia,
all of which are under the supervision of this department, amount to
$1,884,656,197.63. This is an increase of more than $181,465,790
since a year ago. The number of depositors and shareholders who
have availed themselves of these banking facilities is more than
50,000 greater than a year ago.
In addition to these 472 institutions which do a banking business
as ordinarily understood, there are 3 savings and loan associations,
88 steamship agents who receive deposits of money for safekeeping
or transmission abroad, and 53 credit unions whose affairs are super­
vised and whose books and accounts are examined, making a total of
616 institutions and agents under the supervision of this department.
In the report for 1915, reference was made to the enlarged scope
and increasing duties of this department. It is a satisfaction to
state that the 60 savings banks which asked this department to
audit their accounts under the provisions of chapter 629 of the Acts
of 1912 again availed themselves of this privilege, and 9 savings
banks which were formerly audited by certified public accountants

have had that work done by the department. Forty-seven trust
companies have been audited by the department under the provisions
of chapter 409 of the Acts of 1913.
There has been paid over to the Treasurer and Receiver-General
during the year more than $35,000, which has been received by this
department for the fees for the audits, license fees from steamship
agents and registration of public accountants.

During the past year the affairs of this bank have been finally
adjusted, and by the authority of the Supreme Judicial Court the
Bank Commissioner paid a dividend of 87 per cent., amounting to
$8,025.62, to the depositors, whose claims aggregated $9,224.82.

It had been expected that the affairs of this bank, which is in
voluntary liquidation, would have been settled during the past year.
Owing to a delay in settling an estate it has not been accomplished.
Upon the settlement of the estate in question it is probable that
the depositors will receive a further small final dividend. The
depositors in this bank have already received the full amount of their
deposits.

This department, in connection with and in addition to the usual
examination of trust companies, has audited the books and accounts
of 47 companies, which by their stockholders’ examining committees
availed themselves of the provisions of chapter 409 of the Acts of
1913.
Applications have been received by the Board of Bank Incorpora­
tion from the stockholders of the Norwood National Bank and the
Ware National Bank for certificates to be established as trust com­
panies. Hearings have been held, and the Board voted that upon
receipt of an attested copy of a vote of the stockholders to liquidate
the affairs of the above-named banks the Board will issue its certifi­
cate that public convenience and advantage would be promoted by
the establishment of trust companies in place thereof.
Certificates were issued by the same Board to the following trust
companies that public convenience and advantage would be pro­
moted by the establishment of said trust companies, but said com­
panies have not commenced business at the close of this year: —
Bristol County Trust Company.
Citizens Trust Company of Gardner.
Hadley Falls Trust Company.

By an act of Legislature passed in 1915 co-operative banks were
permitted to allow members whose shares have reached the matured
value of $200 each the option of leaving some of these shares as an
investment in the bank.
Shareholders in 60 co-operative banks have availed themselves
of this privilege, and these shareholders own 14,052 shares, valued
at $2,810,400. These matured shares, upon which no periodical
payment of dues is required, are represented by matured share cer­
tificates, and the return to the shareholders owning them is about
one-half per cent, less than the regular dividend credited to those
shareholders who pay monthly dues on unmatured shares.

For some years past this department, in addition to its prescribed
duties, has, at the request of the Governor and Council, made the
examination required by section 68 of chapter 6 of the Revised Laws.
The report of this examination was submitted for the close of busi­
ness August 19. The expense of making these two examinations, and
each time verifying about $60,000,000 in cash and securities in the
treasury of the Commonwealth, has aggregated nearly $400. These
examinations, but one of which is imposed by law upon this depart­
ment, are now considered regular duties.
Savings B ank L ife I nsurance .

The eighth full financial year of Savings Bank Life Insurance
ended October 31, 1916. This report includes the annual statement
for the year of the four banks which have undertaken the business of
life insurance under chapter 561 of the Acts of 1907.
The four banks are the Whitman Savings Bank of Whitman, the
People’s Savings Bank of Brockton, the Berkshire County Savings
Bank of Pittsfield and the City Savings Bank of Pittsfield.
These banks issued during the year ending October 31, 1916, 4,733
policies, representing $2,178,805 of insurance. The net gain is 3,138
policies for $1,693,836 of insurance. There were in force in all four
banks on October 31, 1916, 14,030 policies for $6,035,041 insurance,
with annuities representing annual payments of $32,150.
These banks are prohibited from employing solicitors or house-tohouse collectors of premiums. The largest single portion of the
expense to the policy holder is thus removed. The savings bank life
insurance plan appeals to the people on the basis of thrift, and
especially to the savings bank depositors. It is recognized that some
inexpensive substitute must be provided for the soliciting agent,
consequently the banks are permitted to establish agencies through­
out the State in mills, shops and factories, and public places, in­
cluding other savings banks and trust companies. The mechanism
whereby these agencies serve as feeders to the insurance banks is
simple: an employer becomes an agency for the insurance banks by
signing agency agreements in which he agrees to collect the premiums
from his employees on their policies and remit them to the banks
once a month. The employer appoints an agency secretary, usually
the paymaster, and the agency is entitled to 2 per cent, of the
collections so made. M ost of the employers waive this collection fee
in order that they may say to their employees that the service is

V ili

REPO RT OF THE

[Pub. Doc.

rendered absolutely without compensation to the employer, while
other employers take the collection fee and give it as additional
compensation to the agency secretary. The employee usually signs
an authorization which is handed to the paymaster and authorizes
him to deduct the amount of the premium from the pay envelope
when the premium comes due. Thus the evil of lapsing policies,
which was ever-present in the private industrial companies, and
formed a large part of the cause of the high cost of insurance, is
mitigated in the banks; and the initiative to lapse the policy is
placed on the employee, because his authorization acts until he
revokes it, whereas in the companies the policy holder must take the
initiative to pay his premium; if he does not, his policy lapses.
Premiums are also paid direct to the banks or to a public agency.
There are to-day throughout the State about 250 agencies in mills,
shops and factories; there are 44 savings bank public agencies, 18 in
trust companies, 1 in a national bank, and 13 other public agencies.
The public agencies in banks and trust companies are: —

Chapter 246 of the Acts of 1914 amended section 15 of chapter
561 of the Acts of 1907 by requiring the mortality experience of all
savings and insurance banks to be averaged and unified, so that it
makes no difference in what bank a death occurs, it is distributed
over all banks. This applies only to the mortality experience and
is in the interest of greater security; in all other respects the in­
surance departments are separate in their operation. The invest­
ments are in the same kind of securities as those of the savings banks.
The system is entirely mutual and dividends are paid to policy
holders every year. For the year November 1, 1915, to October 31,
1916, three of the savings banks with insurance departments are pay­
ing to their policy holders extra dividends in addition to the regular
dividends. These extra dividends are 50 per cent, of the regular
dividends in all cases.
The banks issue two forms of policies, monthly premium and
annual premium policies. The monthly premium policies are de­
signed to take the place of the weekly premium policies issued by
the companies and are issued at a net cost approximately 35 per cent,
less than by the companies. Insurance on the monthly premium
basis is principally for amounts less than $500, and is now issued
from age two next birthday to age sixty-five next birthday.
Annual premium policies are issued for amounts of $500 or $1,000,
and with four banks issuing insurance a maximum of $4,000 in­
surance may be obtained.
Annuities, both immediate and deferred, are issued, each bank
being limited to a maximum yearly payment of $200.
Insurance is also written on the group plan, and already several
firms have availed themselves of this opportunity to obtain insurance
for their employees.

School Savings B anks .

The law relative to the collection of savings from school children
has now been in force for five years. On October 31, 1916, there
were 61 savings banks receiving deposits of this nature.
The reports of these banks show that deposits are being received
from 491 schools located in 66 cities or towns, the system being
operated in 3,629 schoolrooms.
The total number of enrolled scholars in the 491 schools on
October 31, 1916, was 149,779, and 70,968 of these were depositors
in the school savings banks. The amount of deposits received from

C ertified P ublic A ccountants.

The eighth examination of applicants for certificates as public
accountants was held on October 13, 14, 16 and 17, 1916, when 79
persons presented themselves for examination. These examinations
are conducted by a Board of Examiners, appointed by and acting
in conjunction with the Bank Commissioner, but as the Board has
not yet rendered its report, the result of the last examination cannot
be given at this time. On December 31, 1916, there were 133 ac­
countants holding certificates of registration under the laws of this
Commonwealth.

This Board, consisting of the Bank Commissioner, Treasurer and
Receiver-General and the Commissioner of Corporations, is consti­
tuted by chapter 590, Acts of 1908, to pass upon all applications for
the establishment of domestic banking corporations. During the
year 1916 the Board has held 47 meetings and heard 66 applica­
tions, and has visited 14 localities in which it was desired to estab­
lish such corporations or branch offices. Forty applications were
granted, 23 were refused and 3 held in abeyance. These hearings
have been upon 1 application for a new savings bank, 27 applications
for new trust companies, 11 applications for new co-operative banks
and 8 applications for new credit unions, beside additional hearings
held for the purpose of determining changes of name, operating trust
departments and establishing branch offices. The Board also granted
two petitions that were heard in 1915 and held in abeyance at the
time of the last report.
C redit U nions .

Credit unions making report to this department as at close of
business October 31, 1916, numbered 53, an increase of 6 since
October 30, 1915. The reports of the 53 unions show gross assets
of 8816,443.08, an increase of 8384,843.60. The total membership
shown is 11,418, an increase of 3,572. The total receipts during
the year were 81,267,092.84, an increase of 8540,525.31, and the
total loans made were 8831,543.65, an increase of 8330,194.90. The
total disbursements as dividends to shareholders were 813,241.51 and
the total sum paid as interest on savings accounts was 85,986.70.

A certificate was granted to the Lowell Credit Union of Lowell,
but the union had not commenced business on October 31, 1916.
Since the previous report the American Express Employees’ Credit
Union has dissolved and distributed its assets, this being accom­
plished without loss to its shareholders. The Commissioner still
retains possession of the property and business of the Immaculate
Conception Credit Union of Fitchburg, the St. Francis Credit Union
of Fitchburg, the Peabody Hebrew Credit Union of Peabody, the
Salem Investment and Credit Union of Salem, the Lynn United
Hebrew Credit Union of Lynn and the People’s Credit Union of
Lynn. In the case of the Immaculate Conception Credit Union there
is in the Commissioner’s hands $20.33 to pay liabilities to sharehold­
ers of $4.10; in the case of the St. Francis Credit Union, $2.25 to pay
liabilities of $1.48. The affairs of the other unions heretofore men­
tioned as in his possession remain in the same condition as at the
time of the previous report, with but little hope that further collec­
tion of the assets can be made.
Of the 47 credit unions whose statements figured in the general
statement of the report of 1915, 1 has ceased to do business.
Credit unions to the number of 7 commencing business since the
last annual report make the number 53 which are now doing business
and whose statements enter into the figures given in this report.
There has been a marked improvement in these credit unions, due,
undoubtedly, to the better understanding by their management of the
fundamental principles and the statutes. The seven years’ experience
in operation has developed the judgment of the boards of directors,
and the advice of the Conference Committee of the Credit Unions of
Massachusetts, a voluntary association, which has co-operated with

this department in endeavoring to attain a competent standard of
management, has been followed, so that the foresight in establishing
credit unions has become more apparent. It is proper to state,
however, that as the savings of the members are loaned to borrowers
without financial standing and primarily for provident purposes, it
cannot be determined to what extent all the borrowings will be repaid
in full. The fact should not be lost sight of that the duty of their
managers to the nonborrowing shareholders is that money should
be lent only to members who beyond reasonable doubt will be able
to repay their obligations to the credit unions; and, further, as de­
positors would become creditors it does not seem wise at the present
time that credit unions should create a class of creditors, either by
borrowing money or encouraging deposits, which in the event of a
dissolution would have the preference over their shareholders.
The initial statute authorizing credit unions, which was enacted
in 1909, was repealed by the present statute, which has now been in
operation less than twenty months, and it would seem that further
legislation tending to enlarge the scope of operation of the credit
unions could well be postponed until the existing statute has had a
fair trial.

Since the date of the last annual report the statutes which apply
to the persons, etc., subject to the provisions of the above acts have
been added to by the enactment of chapter 175, General Acts of
1916, whereby certain restrictions were prescribed as to the manner
in which the money received for safekeeping by these bankers should
be invested.
During the last fiscal year there was collected in license fees and
paid into the treasury of the Commonwealth the sum of $3,550.
On October 31, 1916, there were 88 persons, etc., subject to the
supervision of this department, the same number as on October 30,
1915; of this number, 44 received deposits for safekeeping, the total
deposits on October 31, 1916, amounting to $1,796,208, an increase
during the year of $708,084; the number of depositors being 14,687,
an increase of 3,388. The total amount of money sent for deposit
in the Italian Postal Savings Bank during the year was $822,420,
an increase of $228,849. There was also sent for deposit in the
Russian Government Savings Bank the sum of $15,476. The total

amount of money received for transmission abroad for the same
period was $7,381,119, an increase of $1,894,226.
The following table is compiled from the last five annual reports
made to this department, and shows the amount of money forwarded

I hereby make the following recommendations for consideration
and action by the General Court for the ensuing year: —
1. That money which has been on deposit for more than one
month in a savings bank may participate in the earnings of that bank.
2. In m y opinion the provisions of chapter 610 of the Acts of 1914,
limiting the use of the words “ bank” or “ banking” to savings
banks, trust companies, co-operative banks and certain other organ­
izations, would make the transaction of business by a State bank
under chapter 115 of the Revised Laws illegal. Said chapter 115
is a substantial continuance of the old State bank law. N o banks
have operated under that statute for over sixty years. The statutes
relating to trust companies have taken the place of the old State
bank law, and have been developed to meet modern conditions and
customs. I therefore recommend the special repeal of chapter 115
of the Revised Laws.
3. Co-operative banks cannot loan more than $5,000 upon any
one parcel of real estate. This seems to restrict the loans to single
dwellings or inexpensive apartment houses. I believe that many
such houses costing six to eight thousand dollars would make de-

sirable security for loans, and advise that the statutes be amended
to permit an increase in the limit of the amount of a single loan,
and a corresponding increase in the number of shares which a
member may own.
4. Chapters 470 and 610 of the Acts of 1914 prohibit other than
incorporated banks and licensed bankers from soliciting or receiving
deposits or transacting business in the way or manner of a savings
bank. They do not prevent others than incorporated banks and
licensed bankers from receiving deposits of money. It would seem
that all persons, partnerships, associations and corporations receiving
small amounts of money as above, and who are not under State
supervision, should be required to so inform those who entrust money
to their care.
5. Credit unions are especially exempted from taxation, yet among
the purposes for which they are organized is the payment of divi­
dends to shareholders. As the Commonwealth is put to the expense
of supervision and the examination of their books and accounts, I
would recommend the repeal of section 8 of chapter 268' of the
General Acts of 1915, which exempts credit unions from the payment
of taxes.
Respectfully submitted,

S T A T E M E N T N o . 27.
L is t

of

L egal In vestm ents.

The following is a list of bonds and notes which, in the opinion
of this department, are now legal investments under the provisions
of clauses second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth of section 68 of chapter
590, Acts of 1908. Clause second, relating to investments in public
funds, has been applied only to those counties, cities, towns and
districts which appear to have bonds or notes outstanding, and
from which debt statements could be obtained. Clause third is the
general law relating to railroad bonds. Clause fourth provides that
issues which complied with the old law shall continue, under certain
conditions, to be legal investments. The banks may not only con­
tinue to hold such bonds, but may invest further in them. In this
list the bonds which do not comply with clauses second and third,
but continue legal through clause fourth, are printed in italics and
the reason in each case is explained in the footnotes. Clause fifth
relates to investments in street railway bonds, and clause sixth to
investments in telephone company bonds.
Investment in bonds or notes of cities, towns and districts men­
tioned in the list should not be made without further inquiry, as both
their indebtedness and their valuations for the assessment of taxes
are constantly changing.
