Br the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. April 9.—The bond
market moved over divers paths today
and revealed an undercurrent of nerv
ousness over weakness in the share list
and foreign currencies.
Support became firmer in parts of
the list following a denial by President
Roosevelt the Treasury had any inten
tion of altering the gold price In con
nection with the Government's plan
for dealing with the rise in commodity
prices.
Unevenness prevailed in both the
United States Government and cor
porate divisions. The Federals made
some early gains, ranging from 2-32ds
to 6-32ds of a point, and registered an
equal number of losses of about the
same scope
Federal Reserve purchases of $28,
819.000 in Governments in the first
three days of the week, as disclosed
by the weekly Federal Reserve state
ment, was a subject of comment
among dealers. To observers the fig
ures meant the Reserve Board lost
little time In putting support in the
market following its announcement a
week ago it was prepared to act in
that direction.
Losses ranged from 1 to around 2
points in Youngstown Sheet & Tube
SUs, Walworth 4s, Pure Oil Pa
cific Gas 334s, Chesapeake Corp. 5s,
Great Northern 4s, Illinois Central
434s and International Hydroelectric
6s. Many more were down fractions.

EXCHANGE TO REOPEN
AT CALCUTTA APRIL 12
Be th« Associated Press.
CALCUTTA, India, April 9—The
stock exchange decided today to re
open April 12 after being cloeed yes
terday because of a runaway bull mar
ket in iron and grains Induced by a
world rise In commodity prices.
Outstanding accounts were ordered
settled by the end of business today
so the four-day holiday, including the
usual Saturday and Sunday holidays,
would give brokers time to adjust, their
books.
The local crisis produced but little

([QUESTIONS that are asked about bankingj
MOST of the bankslof the country (14,123
which are members of the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation) are prohib
ited by law or government regulation from
paying interest on “demand deposits.” Check
ing accounts are, of course, demand deposits,
for they may be withdrawn at any time by
the depositor.
It is now generally recognized that the pay
ment of interest on demand deposits is not
sound banking practice. A bank must be pre
pared at all times to pay out these funds on
demand. Consequently, the bank cannot
make full use of this money because it does
not know when the depositor may want to
withdraw it.
A checking account is primarily for the
convenience of customers for keeping their
money and writing checks. For those who
wish to receive interest their funds can be
placed in interest-bearing time deposits.
