It was found that jhe members, through their , board of directors and committees, operate the Cred- it Union. Q.: What pay do the officers of a Credit Union receive? A.: It is customary to make some form of honorarium to the manager of a Credit Union, after earnings have taken care of or- ganization and other primary ex- penses. As the Credit Union grows, it is possible that help may have to be hired to assist the, treasurer or manager. How- ever, this is the only monetary recompense to Credit Union .of- ficials. All officers give freely of their time and ability in a spirit of co-operation. Q.: Is the treasurer bonded? A.: The Credit Unions Act re- quires that all persons handling money in Credit Unions be bond- ed. These bonds may be secured from the Insurance Research Di- vision of the Credit Union Na- tional Association, Hamilton, Ont. Q.: Would it not be possible for a group in the Credit Union to gain control and operate it to their own advantage? A.: Voting power within the Credit Union is strictly on the prin- ciple of "one man -one vote". No matter how large or how small the shareholdings of members may be, their voting power always 're- mains equal. - Next week we will discuss the operation of the CreditA litho rt..
