IF I were asked to sum up the whole
Canadian way of living in two words, I’d
say: "Steady Progress”. The people of
this country seem to combine stability with
a go-ahead spirit. This approach shows
up in most things we do. Take Canada’s
first bank — my bank. We have just finished
our 134th year, with assets of oyer
two billion dollars. Our Annual Statement
is typically Canadian in that it tells of
substantial progress in terms of brass tacks rather than brass bands.
Just three highlights will show you exactly what I mean:

co-operate with the Government
in measures which are designed
to combat inflation and help gear up
Canada’s economy for the defence program.
INVESTMENTS: At the year’s end, the
BofM had $976,950,829 of its depositors^
money invested in high-grade
government bonds and other public
securities. Thfcse were listed in the
Bank’s books at a figure not greater 3
than their market value. Our other
b DEPOSITS: Our 1,800,000 cus-
tomers have $2,085,187,091 on
iMLAi deposit at 572 B of M branches
across Canada. Some of this
money belongs to business firms and ihstitu*
tions, but more than half of it is the savings
of everyday people.
LOANS: Now at the highest year-end figure
in the Bank’s history, our loans amount to
$646,368,336. Farmers, fishermen, ranchers
and lumbermen borrowed a grea; deal from us,
but we lent money to people in every walk of
life and to business of every kind.
At that, we had to cut down on
many loans we would ordinarily 0
