County Won't Pay Depository Bank Service Charges -SALEM, April 1 IP) County treasurers have no authority to pay service charges to a bank which acts as a depository for county money, and may collect two per cent of the daily average from the bank for use of such money, Attorney General I, H. Van Winkle held In an opinion handed down here. The opinion regarding depositories was requested by Alta King, district ' attorney of Lane county. King stated the First National bank of Eugene, which carries county de posits, desires to withdraw liberty bonds and other collateral placed with the county treasurer as good faith, and substitute a bond of a surety company, and desires that Lane coun ty pay the premium on the bond. The county has refused to do this where upon, Ills letter states, the bank is going to place a service charge upon the county. The attorney general further held; upon questioning, that, if the bank as depository breaks its contract, the county may place! its deposits In another bank, and if no banks in the county qualify, then it can be placed in a bank outside the county. The county is. not. required to pay the premium, qn a- surety bond and it cannot lawfully do so. Further, Van. Winkle held, the county may not re turn, securities until the account is settled. In another opinion requested by the state board of control, Van Wink le holds that inmates of the Oregon employment institution for blind, un able to work, cannot be charged for board even if the inmate is able to do so. The Inmate may voluntarily pay board and room as a gift, and it may be accepted, but entering into contract for such payment is pro hibited by the statute..
