RATES TO BE CUT
ON BANK SAVINGS
Reduction From 2!/2 to 2 Per
Cent Announced by
Clearing House.
BT EDWARD C. STONE.
Interest rates on savings accounts
In Washington banks will be cut from
2>/i per cent to 2 per cent on March
1, H. H. McKee, president of the
National Capital Bank and chairman
of the Washington Clearing House
Association, announced today.
The maximum rate allowed by the
Government is 2>2 per cent, but
bankers here cannot find sufficient
high grade investments for savings
and time deposits to permit the con
tinuance of the 2!2 per cent rate.
Chairman McKee said, adding that
similar action has been taken in prac
tically all the other cities in the
United States.
Washington bank officials have
given several months special study to
the situation. Savings deposits, other
wise known as thrift accounts, have
been growing steadily in the Capital
for more than a year. Bankers have
hoped that earnings on the increas
ing amount of loanable funds would
be sufficient to prevent the need of
any reduction in rates.
Special Rule Adopted.
Chairman McKee, in announcing
the reduction in rates, stated that the
Clearing House Association had
adopted the following rule governing
the payment of interest on time and
savings deposits:
Beginning March 1,1937, and there- j
after the maximum rate of interest j
that may be paid by members and 1
associate members on savings accounts1
eh all be as follows:
Two per cent per annum on ac
counts showing a balance of $2,500 or
less.
On accounts that show a balance of
more titan $2,500. 2 per cent on $2,500
and 1 per cent on the remainder.
These rates shall apply to all ac
counts in existence March 1, 1937. i
and to all new accounts opened after
that date.
The rates that are now paid on ■
certificates of deposit having a defl- I
nite maturity are left unchanged, j
They are:
One-half of 1 per cent on certifi
cates having a maturity of not less
than 60 days.
One per cent on certificates having j
a maturity of not less than four
months.
One and one-half per cent on cer
tificates having a maturity of not less
than six months.
Causes of Rate Cut.
The reduction of the maximum rate
from 2’« per cent to 2 per cent has
been caused by the inability of the
banks to use safely and profitably the
large amount of savings and time de
posits held by them which are con
stantly increasing. Deposits must be !
Invested in sound loans and high-grade '
securities of a readily marketable
character. Chairman McKee explained.
The return on United States Gov- !
trnment and municipal bonds and
other eligible securities in which sav
ings deposits should be invested is
lower than ever before in our his
tory. it being impossible to safely |
Invest savings deposits at rates which |
will permit the continuation of the
maximum of 2 Vi per cent allowed by
Government regulations and. at the
same time, meet the overhead ex
penses Incident to operating savings
departments.
This is not a local condition.
Chairman McKee stated, as an ex
amination of the rates paid through
out the country discloses that in only
a few places is a rate higher than 2
per cent being paid on savings or
time deposits.
After careful study by the Clearing
House Association over a period of
several months the conclusion was
reached that the maximum rate of 2
per cent on savings accounts, other- \
wise known as thrift accounts, is fair
and reasonable in view of existing
conditions, the clearing house official
concluded.
Small Estates Protected.
Blaine B. Coles, president of the
trust division of the American Bank
ers’ Association, described the protec
tion of the “little man’s estate” at the
opening of the
Midwinter con
ference in New
York today.
The trend of
business is toward
the administra
tion of small es
tates rather than
large estates, he
said. Protection
and conservation
for small estates
constitutes a so
cial service of the
highest order.
Blaine B. Coles. ™er€iD >>es »
future of the
trust business, he added, reporting
trust business on the upgrade every
where.
A sizable delegation of Washington
bankers Is attending the three-day
sessions.
Reilly Talks to Credit Men.
John A. Reilly, president of the
Second National Bank, addressed the
Columbia Regional Conference of the
Association of Retail Credit Men at
the Mayflower Hotel today on “Retail
Credit Inflation.” He said in part:
"This thing we call inflation is de
signed to stimulate commodity prices.
If historical precedents mean any
thing at all we can safely predict that
wages will not increase to the same
extent as commodity prices in an
Inflationary program.
“Our greatest need today is a thor
ough understanding of how credit fa
cilities may be used as an aid to dis
tribution. Credit as originally under
stood was intended as an aid to pro
duction. In this field it has performed
a magnificent service.
Heard in Financial District.
Business associates and friends paid
a rare tribute to Karl W. Corby, whose
funeral was held yesterday afternoon
from his Maryland home. Delegations
from all the organizations in which he
was moet interested, an attendance
which crowded the residence, and
flowers which spoke more than words
added to the impressiveness of the
ceremonies.
Joshua Evans, jr„ vice president of
the Hamilton National Bank, is taking
a month's leave, following the tragic
death of his son. Messages of sym
pathy are still reaching the bank and
his residence in great numbers.

NEW YORK. February 9— A po
tential “squeeze” of shorts in Warner
Brs. stock helped to Inspire a late rail’,
in today’s markets and many early
losses of fractions to 2 points were re
duced or canceled.
Selected steels, motors, rubbers and
specialties were ahead throughout,
but the rails, coppers and utilities
w-ere under water most of the time.
Prices were still a bit mixed at the
close. Transfers were around 2.650,
000 shares.
The bv-play in the Warner issue
; followed announcement of the com
i pany it had called off its plan to put
! out additional common shares. Trad
| ing in the stock was temporarily^
j halted when a “covering” rush
swamped the specialist’s books. Trans
actions, when eventually resumed,
were marked by a sale of 20,000 shares
at 17, up 2 points.
After a speedy opening, the list
spent the greater part of the day
trudging along indifferently, with
many of the recent leaders inclined
to give ground on comparatively light
i offerings.
United States Steel, down until the
final sprint, came back with vigor.
General Motors tripped over con
tinued troubles in strike negotiations.
Chrysler, however, developed strength.
Offsetting labor handicaps were
many business items encouraging to
buying forces. At the same time the
cashing in of profits, following the
upturn of the past several sessions,
lured many.
Among the better acting stocks were
Ludlum Steel, Youngstown Sheet &
Tube, Graham-Paige, Waukesha Mo
tors, White Motors. Mack Truck,
I Goodyear, United States Rubber,
Goodrich. Lee Rubber, Firestone. J. 1.
Case, International Telephone. Inter
