BANK C[EAR|NGS AN
UNCERTAIN |NDEXOF
A C|TY'S BUSINESS
President Harding Explains
Difference in the Systems
Employed in Birming-
ham and in Atlanta

That the bank clearings of city
furnish an uncertain index as to the
commercial business of that city is the
opinion of w p. G. Harding, president
of the First National bank OF Br-
mingham.
This opinion was expressed in view
of the fact that Atlanta is claiming
prior rights to a regional bank over
Birmingham because it's bank clearinss
as published have been larger than
those of Birmingham.
II will argue this matter" said Mr..
Harding, before the committee in AT
lanta. and will show by actual figures
that the individual business of the First
National bank of Birming CHAM is from
five to six times as lhrge as the bank
clearings of all the banks of Birming
ham.
THE difference in the amount of
clearings in Atlanta and Birmingham
is due to the different methods adopted
by the banks in Atlanta and Birming
ham regarding their clearings.
Reasons for Difference
For instance, in Birmingham IL a
cneck Is uepOSlteu III a local Dank pay
able at bank in Montgomery, that
check is sent to Montgomery for col
lection. If a check payable in Birming
ham is deposited in Atlanta, it is col
lected through the Atlanta clearin e
house, and the amount of the check is
included in the amount of clearings for
that day.
TT is readily seen that as a result
of the different methods a material diff
ference in the amount of clearings is
shown. But when one sifts the actual
amounts handled in the course of a day
by Birmingham and Atlanta banks. the
difference is not so marked.
"Atlanta's method is one in which
sentiment and city pride play a part
Birminghams method is a cold blooded
business method, and is in techinal
keeping with the purpose of the clear
ing house-which is nothing more or
less than a method of exchange for
local banks.
A Local Illustration
ITO illustrate. here is an example.
Sometime ago, three notes of the city
of Birmingham fell due on the same
day. The notes were held by three in
dividual banks The amount of each
note was s150,000. In each of the banks
the city had on deposit SIS 900 The
city, in payment of the notes gave a
check for s150,000 to each of the three
banks on the sum it had deposited in
that bank. As a result the checks did

are not "big guns" so much as they
are effective speakers on the issues

excellent for the Republicans regain

is much dissatisfaction over lead and
