to be difficult to obtain considera-
ton of the Walter Resolution on the
next calendar call Tentatively, the
Senate plans to take up only those
bills added to the calendar since 1t
was last called, February /.
This means that to obtain action
OH the resolution the Senate will
have to agree unanimously to bring
it up out of the regular order of
business.
Masaoka SAID every effort now is
being made to try and insure that
the Walter Resolution will be
brought up when the calendar is
called. if at all possible. Several SEN

ed, if the Senate will give its unani-
nous consent.

$4,000 INSURED
BANK DEPOSITS
Insurance Increased From
$4,000 by Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation
INCLUDES BANKS HERE

In an interview with Clark M.
Knotts, president of The National
Bank of Smyrna, he stated that
deposits are now insured up to
$4,000 by the Federal Deposit In
surance Corporation. 1t was also
pointed out by Mr.. Knotts that
the word Federal" in the name of
the insurance corporation leads
some to believe mistakenly that
the Federal Government pays for
the deposit insurance. Actually
We and other insured banks pay
the full cost of this insurance.
Each bank pays insurance prem
iums" in the form of assessments
on deposits. Federal Deposit In
surance is thus really another
bank service, supplied at bank ex-
pense, for the protection of the
money you deposit with us. The
maximum amount previously COW
cred by this insurance was 5000.
This increase in coverage is made
possible largely by the excellent
safety record of banks since the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corpor-
alton was formed in 1888. Each
depositor is insured up to this new
maximum of $4,000 for all depos-
its held in the same right and
capacity. Good bank management
is the underlying factor in the pro-
lection of depositors' funds. Our
bank policies are formed with this
basic principle always uppermost
in mind. In addition, we are glad
to provide the extra measure Of
protection which Federal Deposit
Insurance gives our depositors. To
qualify for this insurance, our
bank must meet rigid standards
Adherence to those standards is
checked regularly through bank
examinations. Good bank manage
ment, sound bank supervision, and
the security of deposit insurance
work together to safeguard your
deposits with us.
