OST of the banksjof the country (14,123 ■! -LVX which are members of the Federal I* Deposit Insurance Corporation) are prohib- J« ited by law or government regulation from • j paying interest on “demand deposits." Check- \ 1 ing accounts are, of course, demand deposits, • \ for they may be withdrawn at any time by ! J the depositor. , J» It is now generally recognized that the pay- • | ment of interest on demand deposits is not !| sound banking practice. A bank must be pre- \ ■ pared at all times to pay out these funds on ■ \ demand. Consequently, the bank cannot !| make full use of this money because it does jl not know when the depositor may want to ■; withdraw it. i ■ A checking account is primarily for the j! convenience of customers for keeping their >| money and writing checks. For tnose who ! | wish to receive interest their funds can be placed in interest-bearing time deposits. ■ | @VL ! she I Peoples Bank ■: ■ .j Roxboro, N. C, ■i undressing.
