A continuing source of interest among many observers is just how far into the fields of insurance and investment brokerage banks will venture venture in coming years. Prior to 1950 Canadian banks printed their own money, known as notes. Mr. Cutway explained that inconsistencies inconsistencies between various various bank notes moved the Bank of Canada to order all such money recalled in the early 1950s and to issue standard government backed currency. The field of consumer loans opened up in the 1950s as well. Previously, Previously, banks had. offered business loans exclusively. In 1982 Canada's large banks offered over 100 services services to customers in what was becoming a much more competitive environment. Today the number is closer to 250 and competition is heating up everyday. In addition addition to the five largest and best known Canadian banks, several smaller institutions institutions have waded ashore from various countries and today operate in very specific specific fields. - The most visible difference difference in banking from 10 years ago is the massive growth in the number of computerized banking machines machines from coast to coast in grocery stores, shopping malls, convenience stores, and even banks. "The only aspect of banking which will stay the same in the future will be the fact that people will still work in the branches," branches," Mr. Cutway predicted, adding that there will always always be' a number of services services which people must offer directly to the public. The popularity of banking banking machines has been demonstrated demonstrated locally by the rise in the number of users of the machine at Mr. Cut- way's bank. Since its installation installation in January of this year, the monthly tally of transactions has risen from 2,000 to over 8,000. In the 1970s, Canadian banks, like many Western banks, loaned vast sums of money to underdeveloped countries, particularly in Central and South America. Ironically, the inflation of the 1980s has helped to reduce reduce the debt load proportionately, proportionately, thus easing the crisis somewhat. "The debt has been devalued," Mr. Cutway reported. The Montreal native noted noted that American and Canadian Canadian philosophies on banking banking are rather different. "We decided to go with a retail type of banking system; the U.S. went with regional banks." As a result, close to 200 small regional banks go bankrupt each year south of the border in reaction to regional regional economic slowdowns and difficulties. by Andrea Adair A half million dollar expansion expansion for the Clarke Museum Museum and Archives is inching inching closer to reality. The expansion, which was a dead issue a few years ago, has been resurrected during the past , three years thanks to the work of curator curator Mark Jackman. Helen MacDonald, chairperson chairperson of the Clark Museum Board, said Mr. Jackman was "able to direct the board to proceed with the expansion." expansion." The matter has been dis- cused by the board and the Town of Newcastle and both have given their approval for the plan to proceed. Funding for the 4,000 square foot expansion is expected expected to come from three areas: the province, the town, and the museum. ' Mr. Jackman said the provincial Ministry of Culture Culture has approved the terms of reference for the project and is prepared to contribute contribute 33 per cent towards the. cost. The Town of Newcastle has also agreed to provide some financial support. The third portion of the fund will come from the museum's museum's own efforts such as fundraising events and donations donations from corporations and foundations. "We're trying to use as little of the community's money as possible," he said, adding "we want to do it on our own." For both of these reasons, the structure may be in place by the end of 1990 but it will probably take five years to completely finish the building.

There will be a new storage storage facility in the building (currently the museum's artifacts artifacts are stored in the armouries armouries in Orono) and there will be enough space in the museum to have rotating displays. The new building will also contain a "proper conservation conservation laboratoiy" that will possess safety features and will be sectioned off from the museum area. Mr. Jackman said he isn't anticipating problems which may block the expansion. "It isn't financially beyond beyond us or beyond the town," he stated, adding "I can't see anything to block this. After five years of studies studies and waiting, I can't see why we would have to wait any longer." Mrs. MacDonald said Mr. Jackman has great publicity . and fundraising ideas for the project. "There is a lot of work involved involved with the expansion but the signal is clear that we can go ahead." She mentioned that, in 1990 the museum will be celebrating its 20th anniver- sary. The chairperson said it would be significant to celebrate celebrate the past 20 years by looking forward to the next 20 through this expansion.
