The bank annually sends out more than 9,200,000 dividend checks worth $1 billion for corporations, takes care of investing $6.5 billion in trust funds.

They were members of the Bemba tribe and converts to Roman Catholicism. Their crime: acting on orders of Catholic priests, they had persuaded other Catholic Bembas not to contribute grain to the local Bemba chief. Fined by a native court, they had taken their case to the Bemba court of appeal, which increased their fines. The district commissioner's court upheld the conviction. The two dissatisfied Bembas had finally appealed to the Northern Rhodesia High Court...
