COUNTRY BANKERS
EFFORTS TO FAIL
State Superintendent of
Georgia Banks Reports on
Check Clearance Fight

7. r. Bennett, state superintendent of
banks, on Thursday returned from Wash
| ington convinced that the federal re-
serve board in that city has made up its
| mind to enforce the clearance of checks
| at par throughout the country and that
| it's mind is not going to be changed by
any arguments efforts that may he put
| forth by the Georgia Country Bankers
Association in opposition to par clear
ance.
Mr.. Bennett went to Washington for the
purpose of presenting to Governor Hard
| ing and other members of the board the
viewpoint and arguments of the country
bankers of Georgia. and for the purpose
| of requesting the board to suspend the
enforcement of its par clearance order
for the time being at least.
Il found their minds made up" he said
Thursday Mr.. Harding seemed to be
under the impression that country bank
ers of Georgia and Alabama were asking
him, southern man, whose home is in
Alabama, to do for them a thing he had
previously refused to do for the bankers
of other states. / explained to him that
TINS was not our position at all: that our
position would be the same if we were in
Oregon instead of in Georgia: that we
would have gone to him to present our
views if we had come from Oregon in
stead of Alabama
He and other members of the federal
reserve board made it clear that they had
gone over the whole subject and were
squarely behind the Federal Reserve
Bank of Atlanta in the enforcement of the
rule throughout this (the SIXTH district
Mr.. Bennett believes an exchange charge
for handling checks is legitimate charge
He believes it would be a legitimate
charge for the banks in other states
where the par clearance rule has been
willingly complied with. He does not be-
lieve Section 1916 of the federal reserve
act, under which the federal reserve sys-
tenn is acting, was intended to give the
system power and control over non-mem-
Der banks. But while his views on the
subject are based upon his own expert
ence as banker, he does not believe
the Georgia Country Bankers Associa-
tons efforts to prevent par clearance are
going TO be successful. He acknowledges
the practical and substantial power Of the
federal reserve system to enforce par
clearance by sending agents with checks
and presenting them at the teller's win
dow if necessary, even though he doubts
the intention of Congress in framing
the act to go that far
The injunction proceedings brought in
Fulton superior court by the Georgia :,
Country Bankers Association against the

ton of jurisdiction is decided Judge
