BANKERS' BILL FAILS TO PASS Relations between the city of Sa lem and the local banks, which are not neighborly at beBt these days, became further strained last night when the city council failed to pass the depository ordinance bill which has been prepared at the direction of the banks. For many years the banks have been paying 2 pecent Interest on deposits of public funds. Now, on aount of numerous federal loan plans, and the difficulty of finding good Investments for their money. the banks are paying only a frac tion of one per cent. The bill up for consideration last night provided that the city and the banks agree on the interest to be paid. Alderman O'Hara, chairman of the ways and means committee, said the bill was simply to make a lower rate of Interest than 2 per cent le gal. ' This Is a bankers' bill," said O'Hara. "I don't like It, but I guess we have to take It." Some other aldermen, notably Townsend, counselled against ap proval of the bill, while some feared that failure to pass It would mll utate against the banks cashing city warrants. The measure was over. whelmlngly beaten. Bookworms Approve Code In Washington Washington (LP) Bookworms here apparantly have adopted a code. Figures released by the Public Li brary showed a decrease of 7,000 borrowed books In 1933 under 1932. In addition, officials said, fewer persons were seen In reading rooms. However, It was said that reason for the decline possibly may be at tributed to an unemployment de crease assuming people borrow more books when they are out of work. The population of the Union ol South Africa Is estimated at 7,750,- . 000. II A Small Deposit Will Hold Any Coat ' A Lot Of Luxury At A Little Price!
