REPOET OF THE

IV

The People’s Savings Bank of Attleborough, chartered by
the last Legislature, had not commenced business at the date
of this report.
Part II. will be submitted later in the session, giving state­
ments of condition of
130 co-operative banks,
3 collateral loan associations,

together with statements of the condition of the affairs of one
co-operative bank, two savings and loan associations and two
mortgage loan companies, either in the hands of receivers or
being voluntarily liquidated.

Gratifying progress has been made during the past year in
the elimination of the doubtful assets of this institution, the
officers of which are now exercising their utmost endeavors to
bring to a final settlement the comparatively few matters which
remain to be adjusted before any serious consideration can be
given to the question of resumption of business.
With the present status of affairs, it would obviously be a
matter of conjecture to attempt to predicate the time when the
bank will re-open, but the Board is hopeful that the result may
be accomplished in the near future.

which is the largest increase of any year in the history of our
banks.
The total amount of deposits, $662,808,312.87, is divided
among 1,829,487 open accounts, being an average to each of
$362.29, or $4.93 more than at the corresponding date last
year.
The guaranty fund now amounts to $30,100,477.44, and is
4.54 per cent, of the total amount due depositors, which is the
same as shown by report of last year.

sse ts.

Reference has been made in preceding reports to the fact
that the holdings of national bank stock by the savings banks
have been quite largely reduced, owing to the liquidation or
consolidation of many national banks ; principally through the
same causes, the amount held by the various institutions has
been reduced during the year $1,058,296, as compared with
$1,282,717.44 the year previous.
In connection with the table of assets, we are glad to note
the fact that the amount invested in real estate by foreclosure
shows a decrease of $103,939.70 during the year.

f Averaging $3,285.44.

During the year there were 1,880,854 deposits, amounting
to $116,026,890.90, an average of $61.69 each, as compared
with $60.06 the preceding year.
There were during the year 1,414,479 withdrawals, amount­
ing to $107,361,106.89, being an average of $75.90 to each
withdrawal, as against $73.58 last year.
The above shows a slight increase in the average deposits
and quite a large increase in the average withdrawals.
T r u s t C o m p a n ie s .

In the preceding pages reference is made to trust companies
which have commenced business during the year, making the
number now in operation forty-four, in addition to the Massa­
chusetts Hospital Life Insurance Company, which also comes
under the supervision of this Board. Twenty of these maintain
trust departments.
After a suspension of about fourteen months, the affairs of
the Hampden Trust Company of Springfield were surrendered
by the court into the hands of its stockholders, and it is again
in successful operation.

both the banking and trust departments of the forty-four com­

REPOET OF THE

[Pub. Doc.

Suffolk Trust Company.
The affairs of this company remain practically the same as
last year. The master, to whom was referred the adjudication
of the stockholders’ liability, has not as yet made his report,
and a final settlement of the affairs of the company await his
findings.
R e c o m m e n d a t io n s

fo r

L

e g is l a t io n .

The Board would again direct the attention of the General
Court to the fact that under existing laws there is no legal
barrier which will effectually prevent any person, association
or corporation, whether foreign or domestic, from soliciting or
receiving deposits from the public, provided, in the opinion
of the Attorney-General, that they abstain from using the
words ‘‘ savings bank ” in advertising for, soliciting or receiv­
ing such deposits.
During the past year the attention of the Board has been
called to the operation in our midst of a number of institutions
chartered under the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law
o f 1903, and which, without being subject to any supervision
whatever, are soliciting and receiving deposits through the
medium of the so-called toy banks and otherwise.
The affairs of these concerns, as fast as they came to the
knowledge of the Board, were laid before the Attorney-Gen­
eral’s department, and the Board is advised by that office that
there is at present no statute under which they can be reached.
In view of the many safeguards thrown around the invest­
ment of the deposits in our regularly incorporated savings
institutions, it seems rather an anomalous condition of affairs
that other associations or corporations, without any limitations
or restrictions whatever as to the investment of funds entrusted
to their care, should be allowed to encroach in any way upon
a system of which the Commonwealth is so justly proud.
The Board again respectfully urges the passage of legislation
which shall amply protect the citizens of this Commonwealth
from the conditions alluded to.
