We believe more opportunities
come to the man behind the wheel
OF automobile to be truly courteous
in small things than 20 one in any
other position. DiscOurtesy in an auto
mobile driver is merely a sign OF poor
breeding and a low nature in the
man.
Enough has been said about the
road-hog Those who still continue
to indulge in this particular form of
seltishness are not to be cured by any
admonitions We might offer, and it is
a matter which is trifle difficult for
the law to reach.
However, in the matter of glaring
lights used at night some measures
should be taken, for these are
menace to safety and there IS no
excuse for them whatever. While
proper lenses to avoid the glare
should be used, the ordinary plain
Tense may be made safe by the use
OF a sheet OF waNed paper inside of
the glass, until other precautionary
measures can be adopted.
This liz matter which the people
Of Tins community should seriously
consider ltisa an ofIense which should
be made punishable by arrest and a
heavy fine. OF course, it is not al
ways Easy to know just who the Of
Tenders are Tourists might be
difficult to catch, but discourtesy is
rarely found in this class of auto
mobile drivers, for they appreciate
courtesy so when they fluid it them
selves they are eager to be courteous
TO otaers But in community there
are always certain parties who hab-
itually flash their glaring lights in
the eyes of other drivers. Everyone
knows them, and if few OF these
were apprehended and punished. it
would put stop to the dangerous
business.

Richmond, of course, is included in
the list with a surplus in excess of
100 per cent, resulting in the pay
ment Of the large franchise tax last
year. 1t is predicted that the tax
for 1921 will be greatly in excess
of the 100000 paid in 1920.
Gov. George J. Seay of the Rich
mond bank, has not yet issued his
pamphlet report, giving details Of
operations for 1920, but the Federal
Reserve Boards report gives full in
formation about earnings for the
II months ended December 81, 1920.
The gross earnings for the year
were $6.903,000, while current net
earnings were s5,387000. No earn
ing available for dividends, surplus
and franchise tax are given as So
238.0O0. After the payment of 6
per cent dividends there was trans
ferred to surplus account $4,72O.000.
The ratio of surplus to subscribed
capital at the close OF business last
year was 1902 per cent.

RICHMOND BANK PAYS
BIG FRANCHISE TAX
Institution ACCumuIates Sur
plus In Excess OF Capital.

Local financial institutions which
the members Of the Federal Reserve
system will be interested in the an
nouncement that the Federal Re-
serve Bank Of Richmond paid to the
government a franchise tax for 1920
amounting to $205,000. This is the
second and largest tax which the
government has received from Rich
mond. In 1917 the Fifth regional
district banks earnings we're large
enough TO require the payment Of
tax and the amount that went into
the United States Treasury at that
ime was slightly in excess of $780,
600 This payment, too, was made
under the original Federal Reserve
act, which required that all earnings
after payment of dividends and the
addition OF 20 per cent to surplus,
be paid to the government as
franchise tax.
Since then the act has been 50
amended as to provide that after
dividend requirements have been
met the net earnings of each bank
shall be paid to the United States
as franchise tax, except that the
whole OF such net earning shall be
raid into a surplus fund until i
shall amount to 100 per cent Of the
INSCRIBED capital stock Of such
bank, and that thereafter 10 per cen:
of such earnings shall be paid into
the surplus.
Following the passage of this
amendment the net earnings of the
reserve banking institutions avail
able for dividends, surplus and fran.
chise taxes have greatly increased,
and all but three reserve banks have
accumulated surplus in excess of
100 per cent of their subscribed
capital stock, as authorized by the
of March 3, 1919, to Sec
ti0n Z Of the Federal Reserve act.
