SNOOK Twfs,..rAamowordar IL 2973 .1 • Mr. Da. Valentine Manager The Royal, Bank of Gmnarla Sudbury, Ontario hear Mr, Valenti At the outset, there were no large businesses in Canada and this country has achieved its present atatua and life style because of the success of independent businessmen. Nowhere is this more true than in the Province. of Ontario. The Royal Bank owes a great deal of its success to eupporting independent businessmen and, growirg with them. It would appear advisable at this time tO re-emphasize the importance of supporting those who have the courage and. initiative to go into business for themselves, And there ars good. reasons. Firstly, there is a real need for vigorous growth in this section of the economy and financing is ono of the necessary ingredients. Secondly, bank financing is one of the few avenues open to the independent operator in his desire to develop his business. Therefore, I would like to stress that The Royal Bank policy is to give special consideration to applications for loans from smaller, independent businessmen. To make this happen I am asking you to brimg your maximum energy and imagination to bear in encouraging such applications. If we are able to help independent businessmen, then in the long ran we will be helping ourselves and Canada. Sincerely youre, Here's an important letter we've sent to all our branch managers.
