A lengthy financial column promotes a savings scheme promising safe returns from deposits in over 400 towns on the Pacific Coast and Honolulu. It touts a $100,000 reserve fund, lists directors and bold financial credentials, and urges monthly deposits from $6 with a claimed path to liquidity and ownership in a large institution. Also notes a Honolulu attorney general appointment and Panama canal treaty signing with financial terms for a six mile wide Isthmus lease.
