RELATING TO THE USE OF CHECKS

There has appeared in the news
papers of late the statement that it
will be unlawful to use a check or
b5anh draft for less than one dollar
after January LIST, 1910. The news
paper comment on this law has often
lgiven the information in such a way
that many persons have wondered if
there is really such a law, or if it
should be understood seriously. in
assmuch as this law is rather of an
innovation at this time, and as checks
and drafts and all forms of COM
mercial paper are in such common
use, as to make this important,
Attorney w. III. Warren states the
following for the benefit of our
readers:
The law referred to is Section IT'S,
of the Act of the United States Con-
sress eff March 4.h 1909 1909, which be-
comes effective January LIST, 1910, and
reads as follows:
mo person shall make, issue, cir
cuiate, or pay out any note, check,
memorandum, token, or other obliga-
ton for a less sum than one dollar,
INTENDED to circulate as money or be
received or used in lieu of lawful
money Of the United States: and
every person SO offending shall be
fined not more than FIVE hundred
dollars, or imprisoned not more than
six months, or BOTH.
A law almost identical with the one
quoted above was passed by Congress
on July 18th, 1862, but seems to have
become imperative by repeal or other
wise, and Congress seems 10 have
seen st to recently re.enacted The law.
The practical utility and necessity 81
this law have been questioned, but
there Are probably good reasons fcf
: its enactment; and as Congress has
