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..
