SMALL CHECKS ARE FEWER.
Odd Eject of War Tax on the Banking
Business

Odd Eject of War Tax on the Banking
Business.
The war tax has its drawbacks, re-
marked the cashier in Il large Broad
way house 10 Mail and Express re-
porter, but it is II blessing to Il man
in my position. l never knew to what
extent the habit of making small bank
checks had spread until l saw con-
tractor pay off his lnborers one Satur-
day night in checks. | made inquiry
and found that it was common prnc-
tice not only with him but many 9th
ers who hired great bodies of men. A
contractor who made IL practice of is
suing small checks told me frankly
that in the old days. when it was nee
essary to face each check with 2-cent
internal revenue stamp. he made us
few checks as possible The war tax
having included bank checks, the habit
of issuing small checks has practically
been discontinued. That's why | say
the tax is ii blessing in disguise. 1t is
not profitable to issue checks for small
sums.
There Is still another reason why
we now see fewer checks for small
amounts. Expert bank men declare
that the simplest check to raise is the
one calling for an amount below $40
The percentage of raised checks is six
ty-1ive on sums below so. Another
reason for the opposition to small
checks is that they bother the bank au
thorities. Some banking Institutions
will cast out Il patrons account should
he persist in making small checks. The
cheapening of the registry of letters is
another reason for the suppression of
small checks"

TELEoRAPAs TO ALASKA.

telegraph work is being pushed ac-
lively in Alaska. which will soon have
communication with the world at large

way early next spring. 1t is proposed
to use the Edison phonoplex system
laying a cable from Juneau to Skag-
way distance of 100 miles, over
which the phonoplex will work salts
factorily. An appropriation of S4O0,-
COO has also been made by the Cana

W hen they meet apd join wires which
nay be in the fall, SkagWay. Juneau
and Dawson will cease to be isolated
and be practically as close to New
York and London as Tacoma and San

of the new installation is that it likely
will use several hundreds of miles of
the old telegraph trail and survey.
