I wish I had a dollar for every time someone asked what we
bankers do with the money We hold on deposit. Actually, it’s quitea
sunpie question to answer—-there’s no mystery attached to it.
—— The money-that the B of M has on deposit is kept at work, because ,
except for the reserves — no dollar is allowed to lie idle.' •
It is either loaned to individuals and enterprises or is invested
-in Canada’s future.
Without adequate financial resources, expansion and progress of
most Canadian businesses would be impossible* And, it is
the Bank’s job to supply a good part of these resources in the
form of loans and • investments. Quite simply then, it is
your money that turns the wheels of enterprise—- your sayings
that contribute so largely to Canada’s progress.
- Getting down to brass tacks, let’s see the facts behind the figures
‘ in the B of M’s 1954 annual report:
I
/
THE MONEY YOU DEPOSIT:
At the end of the Bank’s year.
U October 31st, 1954, you and
two million other Canadians
had $2/365,669,857 in de-
’• posits with the BofM — the highest on
record. Although much of this money be
longs to institutions and business firms,
well over half of these deposits represent
' the sayings of everyday Canadians —
savings .that, day by«day, are working for
you *. . and for Canada. • .
THE MONEY WE LEND: Your savings are
playing an important role in our expanding
economy in the form of loans
to Canadians of every calling
farmers, miners, fishermen,
oil men, lumbermen, ranchers
— to industrial and business
enterprises and to Provincial
’’ * and Municipal Governments.
As qf October 31st, B of M
— Iban»totalled$903/I48,964—
, the highest figure in the his
tory of the Bank. In a thou
sand ways, these dollars
played thdir part in sustain-
» ing our standard of living.
THE MONEY WE INVEST: At the close of
the year .the B of M had $952/522/945-in-
/ vested in high-grade government bonds
and other public securities Which
... have a ready markets This money A
' projects for the betterment of
the country and the welfare of
CZanadians at large. Other secur-
. ities held by the Bank — which include
many short-term credits' to industry—>
bring total investment's to $1,170,40.6,863.

We have just finished half a
turkey wihich was delicious, The
generally accepted manner > of
stuffing these halves of birds is
to place the dressing in a mound
on the bottom of your roasting
pan, then lay the cut side on top
of it. I tried another method and
ljked it better. I patted the dress
ing into the hollow, heaping it
as much as possible. Then I tied
aluminum foil over itv I baked
it with that side up to begin;
then poured, off the grease and
turned it over. The dressing con
tinued to stuff the turkey, and
didn’t escape into, the pan, ’and
the gravy was much nicer.
With cold weather coming up,
I always feel that certain foods
seem to touch the spot better
than others. Among them is corn.

Revealing the highest Capital
figures in Canadian banking hiSr
tory, the 137th annual financial
report of the Bank of Montreal'
shows record levels for deposits
and loans, with resources at a
new high for the bank at
$2,548,508,239. The report, cover
ing the year ended October 31,
was released this week by Mur
ray Couse, B of M manager at
Lucknow.
The bank’s' paid-up capital,
which for . many years stood at
$36,000,000, is now shown at
$43,927,912, following the recent
offering of new B of M stock,
while the rest accounts stands
sue of stock is completed, the
figures will reach $45,000,000 arid
$90,000,000 respectively — a total
in shareholders’ funds, exclusive
of undivided profits, of $135,000,-
000—the highest figure for any
of the chartered banks.
Beyond this important increase
in the bank’s capital position, the
most notable change in the bal
ance-sheet figures is the very
"substantial enlargement of $139
million ih deposits, which stand
at $2,365 million, compared with
$2,226 million a year ago.
Strong Liquid Position

-liquid position is seen in increas
es which have occurred in the
holdings of . government and
other securities, now totalling

$982 million in 1953.. These hold
ings co7mpriseT~the““large part “of
the bank’s liquid resources to
talling $1,694,056,090 which equal
70.17 percent of the bank’s pub
lic liabilities.

are up from $787 million to $794
million, while call loans at $97
million compare ewith $70 mil
