70 POSTAL SAVINGS the other extreme are 11 States in which less than one-tenth of one per cent of the population are postal savings depositors, and all of these States with the exception of the two Dakotas are south of the Mason and Dixon line, and, with the further exceptions of Arkansas and New Mexico, are east of the Mississippi River. Distribution of Deposits by States The distribution of postal savings deposits by States at the end of the fiscal year 1916 is very similar to that of depositors. The table and map (Map II) point to the following conclusions: ( 1 ) The great bulk of the deposits are in com paratively few States. In only eight of the fifty- two States and other geographic districts men tioned did the total deposits exceed $2,500,000; and these eight States (which in their order were New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio, Massa chusetts, California, Michigan and New Jersey) held 70 per cent of the total deposits, the first four holding 54 per cent of the total. (2) Viewed from the standpoint of amount on deposit in proportion to population there is a striking difference in different sections of the country. The amount on deposit per capita va ried from $4.11 for Nevada to less than 2 cents for South Carolina.
