Big Heart
Bankers Find They're
Just Donating on Small
Check Accounts.
BY ARCH STEINEL

IF the song-writers were unable
l. to find out who paid the rent
for Rip Van Wrinkle while he
snoozed, they might interview
members of the Indiana Bankers
Association today.
For the f1nanciers found out to-
day that they were bunch of
good-hearted boys, handing out
free lunch with every checking
account they accepted from Dear
Old Man Public.
The charitable leanings of the
bankers were discussed in an adj
dress by Fred D. Rose, Muncie,
president of Merchants Trust and
Savings Company, when he
showed them how they were los
ing money on small over-active
checking accounts. He cited
remedy which will be tried for the
first time in the state in his bank
at Muncie.
The remedy is a hike in the
service charge from so cents to 81
for small checking accounts.
TOR instance, a person with
Il a bank balance averaging
500, under Roses plan, would
pay 81 monthly charge for issuing
ten checks on his account and
cents additional on each check
over the ten.
Roses schedule runs up to &C
counts averaging $500 in balance,
and he says his bank will go
farther than that and make any
accou1-5 that is not paying it's
way become an asset instead of
a liability.
There should be absolutely no
exception in making the 81
service charge. Churches. lodges
and Sunday schools should be
made to pay the charge as we'll
as individuals, he declares.
Il =
TX7HEN we first placed the
wv fifty cent service charge on
checking accounts falling below a
certain amount, we found that
some depositors Immediately
placed money to their credit to
avoid payment of the charge. 1t
will work the same under the
dollar charge. We will be imposed
upon just as long as we permit
it." he said.
Bankers must realize that the
volume of business does not pay
its way. The fifty cent charge for
small accounts hardly scratches
The surface in paying the bank for
its bookkeeping COSTS" he added.
He cited statistics showing that
where five checking accounts were
in banks to each $1,000 years ago,
that now thirty-five accounts
would total $1,000.

THIRD BROOKS
WILL SPUR TO
COURT BATTLE
Housekeeper's Alleged Find
Comes as New Trial
Motion Is Filed.
100000 is INVOLVED
Charity Groups LegateeS of
City Man in Document
Held Valid.

Reported finding Of another villa
today by a housekeeper renewed en-
tanglements over the estate Of
Bartholomew D. Brooks, Indianap-
oils business man, as attorneys
filed a motion for a new trial to
test validity of two other wills.
Only partially confirmed by the
housekeeper. Mrs. Linnie Whitcomb,
it was learned that will, signed by
Brooks few days before his death,
June 1880. had been found in a
desk at the Brooks home on Blaine
avenue.
A new trial on the two other wills,
if granted by probate court. will
contest a jury's decision, two weeks
ago, which upheld will, dated
1922. and leaving approximately
100000 to Indianapolis charity or
CARNATIONS.
Employees Were Named
This will in favor of the Indian
apois Home for Aged Women and
the Indianapolis chapter. American
Red Gross, was upheld by the jury
over another will, signed March
1880, naming Robert Hackney, busi-
ness aid of Brooks, and other en-
ployes as benef1ciaries. Brooks
estate was valued at approximately
$3.50 900.
Mrs. Fred Macarthur, who is
supposed to have shared in the will
reported found today. declared the
report was true. It has not been
turned over to an attorney yet, she
believed.
When questions were pressed upon
Mrs. Whitcomb, regarding the dis
covery, she said: Il am not putting
out any information until the right
time and then I will call YOU"
Attorney Claude Anderson, who
f1led motion for new trial upon
request of his client. Robert Hack
ney, said that he had not heard Of
another will"
Denial Is Likely
The motion for trial is expected
to be denied by Probate Judge
Smiley Chambers. Anderson did
not state whether the case would
be appealed.
Basis for the motion is that the
court erred in instructing the iurv
that the 1920 Wills validity definite
~ had been established during the
tour-weeks' court battle. This was
a matter for the jury to decide, the
motion contends.
Jurors declared they were of the
opinion that Brooks was of nm
sound mind when he made the 1880
will and that his signature was OBJ
tanned through fraud and trickefy.
Began After Funeral
Fight over the estate of Brooks
began before his funeral, when a
woman, asserting she was his com
n1on-law wife, asked to be appointed
administrators.
Mrs. Whitconb, who was reported
as finder of the new will, was in
volved in the recent court battle.
Her small daughter, was awarded a
house and $4,000 by terms of the
1880 will, which was declared
fraudulent by the jury.
Other beneficiaries besides the
charity groups under the iury's
verdict are a half sister of Brooks.
Mrs. lone Clark Stubs, who will re-
ceive about $4,000, and seven
cousins.
The ousted 1880 will was found a
few days after Brooks death and
presented in probate court by A F.
zainey, attorney. who declared
Brooks wrote it in his Office on a
typewriter. Matters relating to its
tipping were high points of argu-
nlent IN the recent court battle.
