UNITED BUILDING CHAIRMAN'S ANNUAL REVIEW LOW WORKING CHARGES The 29th annual meeting of the United Permanent Buiidine and Investment Society of Auckland was held yesterday morning. Mr. A. M. Howden presided. The annual report and accounts, as published in the Heeald oh October 19, were adopted. In reviewing the accounts the chairman pointed out that liquid assets, consisting of Government stocks and local body debentures and deposits at the savings banks, amounted to about 20 per cent of the deposits held bv the society. During the year more money was offered for deposits than could be advantageously accepted, with the result that the amount held on deposit was a little less than that of the previous year. Had suitable outlet been available no difficulty would have been experienced in arranging finance. A very low expense ratio on the society's turnover was revealed by the fact that this amounted to about 13 per cent of the net revenue for the year, a considerable factor in the successful development in the past, and one that would be continued in future policy. The retiring directors, Mr. Samuel Wing and Mr. David L. Nathan, were re-elected. Messrs. W. J. A. Thomson and A. 31. Seaman were re-elected auditors.
