W oxacxexa Special to The News. Baltimore, Jan. 28.—The Maryland Building Association League was or ganized last night at the Eutaw House. Delegates representing practically every on of the building and loan as sociations throughout the state w'ere present. The meeting was called to order by Alfred J. Carr. Mr. Samuel Wittkowsky. of Charlotte. N. C.. was one of the principal speakers. He is one of the best known advocates of building and loan associations in the South. He urged the organization of a state league in order to better con serve business interests by united ac tion. He traced the origin of building associations from the little group of workmen in Birmingham, England, in 17S1 w'ho banded themselves together for the purpose of buying each a home, down to the present day. “The first building and loan association in the United States” he said, "was organized in P’ranUford, a suburb of Philadelphia, and from that small beginning have grown the 1.500 associations that have m.ade Philadelphia known as the City of Homes. " His speech follows: Gentlemen: Permit me to gratefully acknow'l- edge the honor extended to me of com ing to the grand old state, of Maryland, and of appearing before an audience in this historic city of Baltimore, whose citizenship has been known the w^orld over, since the days when liberty-lov ing men sought refuge on the shores of the western continent. Your city is known far and wide for culture and l)rogress. and for charitable institu tions. Your business thrift and energy were manifest to a high degree when in recent years a great conflagration wrought uncounted losses to your citizens, your city rose Phoetiix like from the ashes of grim destruction, and today stands forth as the “Balti more more beautiful”. Of this great progress you may .iustly feel proud. We all here hr ve cause for felicita tion on this occasion over the presence of those of whom it may be said “They are the brightest lights of the Build ing & Loan cause.” We have with us Mr. Paist. who has been for 32 con secutive years, honored with the presi dency of the State League of Penns.vl- vania; Mr. Brown, who is now^ the secretary of that league and ex-presi dent of the United States League and Mr. Burke, the first vice-president of the United States League. Either of these gentlemen is better qualified to speak on this subject and expound it before you than your humble speaker. I am a plain business man, and the gifts of oratory are not mine. Well might I wish on this occasion to poss ess the gifts of Mr. Edmonds, your distinguished fellow-citizen, whom our citizens had the honor to entertain recently in my own town. From his business-like wisdom I was enabled to drink deep, and to sit *at the feet of a statesman who had the power of a ■ ?eor'’ to forecast the South's future. I mu.Si. therefore, beg your kind in dulgence. and most charitable consid eration of my efforts here this evening. Gentlemen: We have met here to take counsel together upon a subject which is near my heart, and to w’hich 2S years of my life and my best efforts have been devoted without pecuniary rewards; but on the contrary Avith considerable expenditure of my own means, yet my friends, my reward has been great, far greater than my de serts, in the many thankful hearts of my constituency in my ow^n state and city. It is a source of great pride to have aided 3.000 people to the ow'ner- ship of their homes. The friendship and kindness of my associates of the Building & Loan League of North Car olina, and still more of the United States League, including their wives and families appeal to me deeply. Surely my heart has cause for great rejoicing. We are here to consult and counsel together concerning the most rational and practical plan by wiiich this bene ficent philanthropy which does not de grade the recipient but on the contra ry, heightens his self-respect and love for home, can be best extended throughout the great state of Mary land. and ultimately throughout the na tion. Truly this is an undertaking that merits, yea, even calls for our highest efforts and consecration to duty; for whatever, enhances the interests of home, at once becomes our highest ob ligation to our fellow men and society. If I understand the object of this meeting, it is to study together this great subject and decide whether the state of Maryland having 500 Building & Ix)an Associations W'ith a subscribed capital of $40,000,000 shall organize a state league of Building & Loan Asso ciations in order to better conserve the interests of those concerned by united action. It is a tradition that “In union there is strength.” It can be dem onstrated that by a combination of a certain number (if not all of your 500 associations) the great benefits of this highly commendable cause will be readily seen through our proceedings and discussions of the subject. The l)eople of this great city must event ually come to realize that the present .undertaking is wise, and that it cannot help but bring its blessings. The first authentic history we have of the origin of the Building & Loan association, is that in the year 1781, in* the city of Birmingham, England, a number of wage-earners decided to help one another to own a home, by each one’s contributing at stated peri ods a certain part of his wages until one of the number had accured a home. When this was accomplished they would take up the cause of another and so on. From this acorn has grown a vast oak that has taken roots in the hearts of men in a manner akin to the divine attribute love for ones fel- lowmen. A movement for good has been Inaugurated that will defy the storms of human passion, and upheav als of political, or economic affairs as long as time lasts. The first building and loan associa tion in the United States was organ ized at Frankford, then a suburb of Philadelphia, and the result has been that today Philadelphia has the proud distinction of being known throughout the whole nation as the “City of Homes.” She has shown that her great foresight and thrift are worthy to be emulated in all parts of the world. The great state of Pennsylvania stands today pre-eminent above any other state in this great Union as a Building & Loan state, having no few er than 1,500 such institutions with a capital of $175,000,000 and nearly 500,- 000 share-holders. Ne.xt in point of as sets and membership is Ohio with $155,000,000 and 350,000 members. There are today 6,000 such associa tions in the United States, w^ith as sets nearly $900,000,000 which is about equal to the paid-in capital of all of her National Banks. And yet, my friends, during the panic of 19X)7 when some of the great banks occupying grand structures of marble tottered and fell, and when every, monied insti tution in the country, so to speak, “quaked in its boots” these 6,000 Building & Loan associations managed chiefly by the plain every-day business man, in most cases serving without pay, maintained the even tenor of their w'ay, adding nearly $6,000,000 to their assetsK Is it not an achievement of which w'e all have the right to be just ly proud? Now gentlemen, is it reasonable to expect that all these vast accumula tions of the wage-earner can be hand led in the most advantageous manner without organization. Surely this is ar gument enough to convince the great state of iMaryland of which you are justly proud, that she ought not to proceed further without organization. For further information to those not altogether .acquainted with the work ings, results, possibilities and success es of properly managed Building & Loan associations I vrill take the liber ty (o lay before you facts and figures, not theiries, derived from 28 years of practical experience in this branch of business activity. I can point you to marvelous benefits obtained by those availing themselves of the opportuni ties and advantages these institutions offer. The facts and figures may not. In every case be taken from as large cities as Baltimore, yet the principle involved cannot be other than the same. Let me first take up the case of a day laborer working for one dollar a day, who can buy his home with his rent money. Allow me to state further that the calculation is made on the basis of loans at 6 per cent and of SI00 par value per share and dues 25 cents per share, per w'eek. To make it easier for the day labor er to purchase his own home. I carry his loan through tw'o maturing series. Experience has proven that on the basis above set-forth it takes 332 weeks or 6 1-3 years to mature a series. A Dey Laborer. A day laborer pays rent per week, fay $1. or $52. per year. It takes a se ries 6 years and 20 weeks to mature hence, in 6 years and 20 weeks he pays the landlord in rant $332. Say a house renting for $1. per week w^ould sell for $500. Let him take two shares in a B. & L. association and borrow $200 and pay over that amount on the pur chase money on his h.ome leaving $300. still owing to the former owner of tne home. He will pay to the B. & L. associa tion as follow’s: Dues on two shares at 25 cents per share is per week 50 cents. Interest per week on $200, at 6 per cent 23 cents. Let him pay w’eekly or lay aside interest to the vendor on the $300 bal- .50 ' .23 ance due on the purchase money .35 Total per week $1.08 Hence, only 8 cents more a week than his rent, w^hich in the 332 weeks will amount* to $26.50 more than his rent would have been and with these $26.50 he has paid $200 on his home. Now let him take three shares in the B. & L. association and borrow $300, which he pays over to the vendor in full for purchase money. He will now have to pay to the B. & L. association as follows: Dues on the three shares at 25 cents per share per week 75c. Interest on $300 at 6 pe rcent is per week 35c. Total per Aveek $1.10 and 332 times $1.10 amounts to $365.20. Grand total repaid to the B. & L. association $723.76 From which deduct 664 weeks next at $1 per week, amounts to $664. Thus showing that the $500 house will cost that man more than his rent w ould have been the sum of.. . .$59.76, This brings him nearly 13 years from the time he commenced and It is but natural to suppose that your thriving city will continue to grow and that property values will increase during that time, say, if only 10 per cent, so that his $500 home may then be worth $550 and on that supposition his home will stand his only $9.75. Charlotte, an Example. In estimating the possibilties of these associations to a given commu nity. I cannot do better than to pre sent the situation in my ow’n city of Charlotte, N. C. That city by the last census report has 34,000 people. We have in our city four associations with a total subscription of 50,000 shares and $2,200,000 paid-in. This divided among the inhabitants would give $148 subscribed per capita and nearly $65 paid in per capita. One of these associations, of which I have had the honor to be presi dent for 28 years has in force 27,500 shares and $1,200,000 assets. It has matured 44 series amounting to $3,000,- 000, has handled $12,000,000 without the loss of a cent, and at an expendi ture of but % of 1 per cent of current receipts, and about % of 1 per cent of its assets. In taking Baltimore with her last census of 558,000 people at the same ratio of subscription and amounts paid in, instead of $40,000,000 subscribed in your state, you would have $84,000,000 in your city alone and $36,000,000 paid in. Now gentlemen, in the light of all these facts, should Maryland organ ize a league? That is for her to say of course, but would she not do well to join that Spartan Band of noble, patriotic and philanthropic citizens of 24 of the most populous states of this Union, whose business sagacity and wisdom has led to the formation of the United States League? Surely, there IS but one answer to it, and I feel sure that yours will be this evening a rous ing unanimous “Yes.” My friends, we see organized ef forts for the bettering of all callin-gs and avocations of this life, we find above all system, order and organiza tion by the great Creator of the Uni verse. Look at the firmament above >ou. Are not the stars grouped, and are not the planets moving by pre-or- damed laws of the Creator? In the •language of the poet, “A mighty maze but not without a plan.” In the vege table world you find the plants obe- aient to natural law and bound to gether in groupfs or families as it were. The sea with its finny tribes and vast monsters teaches the same lesson. Again glancing Into the air, you find the birds massed together by thousands when migrating according .to the season, bringing to mind the old adage that “Birds of a feather will flock together.” Following the law of nature, man finds the need of cencentration of mind and energies and interests. Do you need a league? Turn to your municipal and to your state govern ment. is there any need of'them? Take up the several callings of the people: The lawyer has his bar as sociation, the doctor in his medical society, while the bankers have their bank associations. Your merchants, their board of trade and so on down to the very boot blacks. Then if this be so ought not you gentlemen who are entrusted with $40,000,000 of the peo ples’ savinss, most of which has been baptized by the sweat of honest toll, or saved amid the sighs and longings of a mother who must deprive her familj’’, not only of luxuries, often of the very necessities of life? Surely, there is need for such an organization. My friends, I need not tell you once more that in “Union there is strength.” Organize this league so that if you find it necessary to go before your mimicipal authorities for any favorable measure to your cause as for instance, to be relieved of city tax, you can come with authority and you have weight in w'hat you demand. Should your state legislature endeavor to pass measures th^t would affect you adversely, then as a league j’ou could go before them in a way that would compel their respect and attention. hereas, without such an organiza tion, who among you would willingly take up the cause ahd run the gaunt let for the fray to combat unfavora ble and to obtain favorable legislation? State League's. Let me cite a few of the benefits derived through the state leagues in various states of the Union. The Ohio Building Association League was organized about twenty-two j'ears ago, and in 1891 succeeded in securing the passage of the Corcoran Act under which the Building Associations of Ohio have had their prosperous ca- leer. The Russell Act, passed in re cent years gave the associations in creased power and effectiveness. The Indiana Building Associations League prepared a code w'hich w'as passed^ by the legislature of that state, and which has greatly increased the usefulness of the associations. The Illinois Building Association League is considered the best fight ing machine in the United States. It is because they have had many hard battles to fight in the legislature, and along judicial lines, that the power of the association has become concen trated and unified. They have met terrific opposition on all progressive measures, and by their aggressive ness deserve much praise for secur ing such liberal and helpful legisla tion. The B. & L. interests in the states of New York and Pennsylvania ow’e their very existence to their leagues. Now let me state w’hat w’e have ac complished in ';orth Carolina in the seven years of our league’s existence. W'hen we formed our league in 1903 there were in North Carolina, but 27 regular co-operative building and loan associations with but $1,750,000 sub scribed or one dollar per capital, and we were confronted with a number of swindling concerns styling themselves. National. Inter-State or State Associa tions. ^Ve have today, thanks to the effort of our league, driven all these swindling and bogus concerns from our state and now have in operation 120 regular co-operative associations with $20,000,000 subscribed or $10 per cap ita. I will not tire you with further data in the necessity of forming a state league. Follow the foot-steps of the 24 states now having state leagues and you will have tonight made his tory for your state, and coming gen erations deriving the benefits of your beneficent action, will call you bless ed, and the young gentlemen who have taken the initiative in this movement will in after years, point with pride to the fact of being instrumental in this great work. National League. So much for the propriety of form ing a state league. Let me now turn to the advisability aye, the verv ne cessity of the U. S. league. Ask your self the question, w'as there any vital necessitty for the various states to unite themselves into w^hat has be come the greatest, w^ealthiest, strong est government on the face of the globe? The great United States! There, gentlemen, you have the an- sw'er. A state league is w'hat a state legislature is to a state, and the Unit ed States league is to the various state leagues w'hat the national con gress is to the various states. Let us see what the United States league has accomplished in the past. First. During th Cleveland admin istration when the income tax was passed by congress, through the ef forts of the United States league, building and loan associations w^ere exempt the burden thereof. In 1891 during the Spanish-Ameri- can war, building associations w^ere exempt through the same powerful agency from t]?e burdens of the Stamp Act. In 1909 w’hen the corporation tax Only One **BROMO aUININE,” that Is L/pStnve Bromo Qiunine Cures a Cold in One Day, 2 Days Wants Exposition At New Orleans New Orleans, La., Jan. 26, 1911. News Pub.
