Federal Banks Lose.

Washington, d. c., May 16.-The
federal reserve banks do not have the
right to insist on par collections on
checks drawn upon member banks, the
supreme court today decided in ef-
feet, in case appealed from the
courts in Georgia.
Authority of the Federal Reserve
Bank of Atlanta, Ga, to insist upon
par collection Of checks drawn upon
non member banks was at issue in the
suit brought by more than 40 state
banks of Georgia in conjunction with
the American Bank & Trust Company.
Of Atlanta. The plaintiffs insisted
throughout the case, however, that be-
hind this issue was an attempt of the
Federal Reserve institution to compel
them to join the reserve system.
Sought Injunction.
An injunction was sought to re-
strain the Atlanta reserve bank from
collecting non-member checks in any
manner except through the usual and
ordinary channels through CORE
spondent banks and clearing houses"
1t was denied and the case brought
on appeal to the supreme court.
Counsel charged that a carefully
planned campaign had been decided
upon by the Atlanta Reserve Bank
and that the very existence Of the
state banks was threatened. Checks
drawn against them were to be held
until a large amount had accumulated,
1t was asserted, and then sudden de-
mand made for the entire amount
'oyer the counter" or such checks in
large amounts were to be sent through
the local postmaster for collection
without notice, all for the one purpose
Of embarrassing the ''hold-outs' from
the reserve system.
The Atlanta Reserve Bank denied
that it intended any illegal act. The
federal reserve act prohibited the pay
ment of any collection charges, it
averred, and left it with with no alter
native except to proceed in the manner
complained of by the nOn-member
banks A further defense was Of
fcred in the fact that universal par
collection of checks would result in
the annual saving Of more than S7O,-
100000 to the public.
