MONEY FLOWS
TO BANK HERE
Appreciate Increase Of
Deposits Results From
Insurance

Indications for the past two
days have been that government
tai insurance for deposits in the
State Trust Co., has caused some
flow of money from postal savings
and from other places Of safe
keeping, it was indicated at the
bank today.
Officers of the bank stated that
there seemed to be a considerable
flow of deposits into the bank yes
terday after the announcement
that federal insurance up to S.
500 was effective.
It was stated at the post office
that as yet there had been no APP
preciable withdrawal of money OF
deposit in postal savings, but that
it was anticipated that there would
be some movement of savings due
to deposit insurance.
1t is anticipated that deposit IN
surance will bring out considerable
money which has been in safes
and safety deposit boxes.
