Joint Account Has Its Pitfalls The joint checking account, used by both husband and wife, can be a boon or a calamity. A large majority ol young cou plcs start married life with a joint account, it is reported by the Amer ican Bankers Association. This plan has a number of advantages, but it should be used with care. When both husband and wife write checks against the same ac count without frequent checkups, the result often is an overdrawn account, say the bankers. They advise that a record of checks be kept in one big check book at home, and that check* written during the day be recorded and checked against the balance cach evening. If this record is accurately kept, it can be used also in making in come tax returns. To make the record complete, many young couples make it a practice to paste cancelled checks baek in the master checkbook when they arc returned from the bank each month. Thus checks can be tallied with stubs, and errors can be quickly spotted. The checkbook then also becomes a detailed record of ex penditures during the year. The husband and wife who carry separate checkbooks and don't both to consult with each other as to expenditures are headed (or trouble, caution the bankers.
