 House of Representatives this even- ing passed the bill making it lawful for National banks to contribute to American Red Cross during the con tinuance of the war out of any net profits otherwise available under the law for the declaration of dividends. such sums the directors shall deem expedient. The bill was passed by the Senate several weeks ago. The action of the House today WEI permit nation- al banks to contribute during the present war funds drive. The laws of several states give banks and trust companies operating under state char ters the privileges enjoyed by national banking associations the enactment of this federal law, therefore, will extend the right of contributing to the Red Cross to state institutions which also might have been barred under existing statues. It is urged that all possible publicity be given to this action of Con- gress and specially urged that bank ing institutions immediately be circu- larized So that there may be no delay in action by boards of directors.
