LOCAL FINANCIAL
AND
BUSINESS GOSSIP

a Washington banks today received
h communication from the Federal
Reserve Bank OF Richmond calling at
tention TO a suit brought by the
Georgia State banks against the Fed
ersl Reserve Bank OF Atlanta TO pre-
vent II from collecting, at par. checks
on non-member State banks.
In a written opinion. Judge Beverly
ID. Evans, sitting in the district court
OF the United States for the northern
district OF Georgia, held that the Fed
eral court and not the State court had
the power to decide the questions
raised, and that the Federal Reserve
banks are authorized TO handle
checks upon non-member banks, and
that presentation at the counter of
the drawee bank was proper method
OF collecting.
Deciding this point. the court in its
opinion said:
"The charge OF the complaining
bank Is that the Reserve bank Is with
out power, or. IL IL has the power, It
should be restrained from exercising
II. TO collect checks on banks OF de-
posit received by IL In the course OF
business by presenting them for pay
ment through agents over the counter
OF the drawee banks.
THAT this method OF collecting
checks will deprive the drawee banks
OF the revenue previously enjoyed
where checks on them came through
the mails from correspondent banks
does not make the transaction unlaw-
ful.
at Is the duty of the drawee bank
to pay a check of the drawer. II II
holds sufficient funds OF the drawer
to pay 1t. II Is no less the duty OF
the drawee bank to pay several checks
than II is to pay a single check, when
presented over the counter within
banking hours"

Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually being
advertised for the purpose OF making thin
people neshy, developing arms and neck
and replacing ugly hollows and angles by
the soft curved lines OF health and beauty,
there are evidently thousands of men and
women who keenly feel their excessive
thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often due to
