BANKER DEFENDS
INTEREST RATE
ON CITY FUNDS
Gives Various Reasons Why
Depositories Can't Pay More
Than Two Per Cent
REALLY COSTS TWICE
THAT TO CARRY ACCOUNT
Fluctuati0n of Balances Chief
Cause Of Business Being I'm
profitable, It's Claimed

Detroit banks cannot afford to pay
more than two per cent interest on
city deposits because a higher rate
would not be SAFE" said the president
of one OF the city depositaries. Con-
troller Engel Is merely doing what
every new man In the controllers
once does. Each new controller be.
lieves that the banks are paying too
low a rate: but sooner or later he
sees that the rate paid 10 equitable.
THE city aims. FIRST OF all at Sc
curity TOR It's deposits. Second. II
must be able to obtain them when
II wants them.
I'VE. therefore, loan the city's
money only In the most secure places.
Since the deposits dwindle to very
small sum In June Of every year. we
cannot loan city money for long
tlme. We place II for short terms
with the strongest business houses
Of America. Can you take . certain
amount for three monthsr we ask.
They reply: We can; but you'll
have to knock on one-half OF one per
cent for the accommodation. Thus
we are unable to get current interest
rates on much of city money.
Though the city deposits large
smounts In August, from the tax col
leotions, II also draws heavily untfl
cold weather stops building operations
and pats . check on expenditures. So
Ne have to keep . large part Of the
city funds ON hand to meet these
drafts. We cannot loan this money;
Il n . drag ON No, IN elephant on
our hands; yet We pay interest on It
AFTER this amount has been drawn.
We sim have to keep on hand 20 per
cent Of the city's deposit. a. . re-
serve. On this amount also We can
earn no money. but We pay interest
on It.
"Thus We are able to use only about
half the city's money for loans: and
because OF the security we demand
for this money. we must accept . low
rate Of interest for It.
Moreover, while we pay the city
two per cent, We also pay one-haf
Of one per cent additional for . So
curity bond.
$50, while the city II receiving two
per cent, II II really costing the banks
about four Per cent to carry the city
deposits-
III the city could guarantee N
perpetual balance Of &250.000, We
would gladly invest Il In four per cent
city bonds; but with the balance
dwindling to almost nothing, every
year, We cannot AFFORD to tie up for
30 years the money Of our other de.
positors In city bonds.
The two per cent rate was fixed
BY the ways and means committee Of
the common council a. the highest
rate the city could get, with the max.
imum of safety. The experience OF
New York and Chicago was taken In
determining the rate"
