Banks Force i. S.
Suspend Sale Of
Saving Features s

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.--Wcst-
eEn banks forced the treasury de
partmcnt to halt the sale of its
treasury saving certificates through
postofficcs in II western states, it
was learned here today.
The banks appealed to Mellon to
end the sale of the certificates to
remove from depositors the temp
tation to withdraw funds from their
vaults for transfer into the ccr-
tificates.
They argued that if the diver
sion of savings and other deposits
to the government securities could
be stopped, more money would be
av;ilable to ease thc acute credit
situation in the west.
Though Mellon was not convinc-
ed that the certificates were any
material factor in the situation, he
asked New to order their sale stop
ped.
Among the states affected are
North Dakota, South Dakota, Min
nesota, Wisconsin,, Iowa, Missouri,
Nebraska, Texas, Arkansas, Colora.
do, Wyoming, Utah, New Mexico,
Idaho, Arizona and Montana.
