WASHINGTON April 3O.-The fiscal sys-
TEN of the United States governing de-

an announcement that all government de-
posltarles, whether active or inactive
would be required to pay interest at the
rate of two per cent. per annum begin

Simultaneous with this action the sccre-
tary authorized an immediate increase

national banks. making he total S52,C49,
g6i. from which the federal treasury will
earn, under the new interest order. 81, ,053,-
OoO annually There are indications that
Secretary McAdoo intends to release still
more surplus money from the treasury
vaults and place it in general circulation
through increased deposits with the ma.
tional banks. In statement to-nignt he
said;
with the banks paying interest on
government deposits, the secretary may
be justified in keeping larger balances
in the national banks. thereby increas-
ing the volume of money i'm circulation.
and to that extent reducing the amount
locked up in the treasury
Mr.. McAdoo also announced a radical
change in the character of securities

of requiring that the national banks
secure treasury deposits exclusively with
