Central Carolina Bank Revises Service Charges Central Carolina Bank and Trust Company has drastical. ly revised its schedule of ser vice charges to personal check ing account customers. Charles F. Bahnson, Assistant Vice- President, said today. Bahn. son, who is in charge of the bank's operations in the Mocksville- Cooleemee area, said that under the new policy, personal accounts which do ' not fall below SIOO during the month would receive no charge. "Many years ago," Bahnson said, "A checking account was used only by the well-to-do. The average man paid his bills in cash. But today a check ing account is almost a ne cessity.
