Credit Union Act Seen As Aid To The Poor Class

A Charleston statistician outlines the Credit Union Act as a beneficial, largely unnoticed measure from the last legislature. The act permits eight residents with a common bond to form unions, issue shares, accept savings, and make loans. It allows real estate mortgages up to 60 percent, sets interest up to 11-2 percent monthly, and mandates a 20 percent reserve from net income. The piece traces origins to Germany and cites Massachusetts as an early adopter with deposits and profits noted.
