By Edword c. Stone

Aggregate deposits in Washing
tons 20 banks and trust companies
are expected to show decline on
June 80 in comparison with the
total at the end of December, linn
tied survey indicated today.
ANY decrease revealed will be
chiefly due to Treasury withdraw
ais of war loan funds. In the last
six months the Treasury has been
withdrawing these funds until they
are now almost entirely removed.
The Controller of the Currency
customarily issues condition call
at the end of the Governments
fiscal year. This will show how all
the banks in the District stand, as
we'll as all national banks in the

ginning of the war.
Funds paid by customers for war
bonds have been carrier in the
banks as deposits until called for by
the Treasury. Up to this year this
total has been very substantial
figure.
Deposits in Capital banks on De-
cember 81 totaled s1,021 ,408 100, the
Controllers call disclosed. There
was no call at the end of the first
quarter in March. The next call
will be on a ''peacetime basis, y
bankers commented today.
The drop in war bond funds, how
ever, will have tendency to reduce
earnings as the deposits were used
to excellent advantage.
Maryland Bonds Awarded.

Works has accepted a bid from the
Harris Trust 81 Savings Bank Of
Chicago for s9,625 900 general con-
struction bonds. The bank, repre-

IA per cent bonds amount to lis
per cent.
The issue was divided into two
loans. s4,625, 900 and s5,o00.0O0.
