Canada‘s chartered banks deâ€" fend and protect the safety of the funds of depositorsâ€"the millions of thrifty souls we have described, whose lifeâ€"savings they entrust to their banks. No Canadian depositor, through the worldâ€"shaking events of recent years, has had to fear for the safety of a single dollar lodged with Canada‘s chartered banks. Loans to agriculture and for marketing agricultural products totalled in 1937, $88,294,000â€" 9.0 per cent. of all ordinary bank loans shown on the return to the Minister of Finance, October 1937. The funds of depositors are their own â€" not a pool from which everybody may draw at will for any and every new finâ€" ancial experiment. We have mentioned the conâ€" tractor and the manufacturer. The same process stimulates employment throughout the whole fabric of production, inâ€" dustry and commerce.

They even cure their own beef and pork, and put up sholves and shelves of preserves and jellies. Vegetables there are in proâ€" fusion, to say nothing of fruits and berrics.

Pharmacy Endows Its Own Researchers Many contributions to public health have been made by modern manufacâ€" turers of pharmaceuticals. These have revolutioniz»d the practise of medicine during the last twenty years. Greatâ€" est stimulus to the industry came durâ€" ing the war years when the Allies were faced with serious drug shortages, espeâ€" clally of those drugs which up to that time had been manufactured only in Germany. In the field of public health nowaâ€" days, you hear a great deal about mediâ€" cal research, especially research carâ€" ried on by well known mdical founâ€" dations and the better known hospitals. Their activities are usually endowed by capitalists outside the medical proâ€" fession whereas, in ressarch carried on by manufacturing chemists, the cost is carried by the business.
