CHEGKMASTER

TO BE
USED BY BANK
Starting next Monday, Decern

Klnmuth Fall who wlahea tha
conventonco of a chocking ac
count limy open ona lit tha Klnm
uth Fall" brunch of tha Flrnt Nu
tlonul Dunk of Portland under
tho CheckMiiater Plan with an
Initial dopoalt of o little as one
dollar, It li announced by Mit
chell TllloUon, branch manager.
No minimum balance will be
required at any time, and, there
will bo no monthly currying
charge regardless of how amall
tha depositor'! biilnnco. Check
book) are frao, with no advunce
paymentn of any kind. Only flvo
cent In charged for each check
drawn and each Item deponltcd,
he said In telling of tho Chock
Maatar department on an addi
tion to tho bank'a exlating check
ing account facilities.
"Tho CheckMustcr plan," Mr.
Tlllotaon pointed out, "la nation
ally faniaua aa 'tha checking ac
count plan for alt tha peoplo,'
and li now balng uaed by hund
red! of thouaanda of depoaltora
In other sections of tho country.
It li known aa tho original sya-
tem that mada checking facili
ties avalluble without requiring
minimum balance. The bank'a
only requirement la that the do
poaltor'a balance be aufficlent to
cover the checka he drawa.
Checkbooks aro Issued free to
depoaltora without any rcstrlc
Hons aa to the number of checka
that may be Issued, und ore ex
actly the aame aa those uaed in
tha commercial department of
the bank.
"Wo ore pleased," Mr. Tlllot
son aald, "to bring this Check
Muster plan to Klamath falls.
Thil new service will bo In addi
tion to our present checking ac
count facilities which will con
tinue aa in the past. One of
CheckMaater'a chief purpoaea la
to aerve those who hove not
previously hod the convenience
of a checking account.
"CheckMustcr hoa been out
standingly successful In hundreds
of towna and cities of every type
and alio In other part of the
country.
"An account In the Check
Master plan makes it poaaible for
the depositor to pay bllla coni
venltntly by check at home or
wherever ho flnda himself. It al
lows him to (hop or travel with
out the risk of carrying large
aum of money.
"We know that the plan will
find an Immediate and continu
ing reception In Oregon because
It meets a vital need. The bank'a
charge of five centa Is consider
ably lesa than the cost of an aver
age money order, which many
peoplo without checking ac
count! use aa a substitute for a
check. Besides, writing a check
eliminates the time and trouble
of purchasing money order
every tlmo payments are to bo
mailed.
. "This service Is so amazing
and so revolutionary that occa
sionally somoono gets tho Im
pression that tho dollar Is In tho
nature ot a too. Wo wish to
emphasize thot there is no Initial
fee for the opening of a Check
Master account. Remember, too,
that the chocking account can
be opened quickly and easily by
moll. A card or lotter to tho bank
will bring application forma."
The Firat National Bank of
Portland, which Is 65th In tho Hat
of the nation's largest banks, has
resources of approximately
$170,620,000. It was established
In 1869, the first national bank
on the Pacific coast. The bank la

system and Federal Deposit In
surance corporation with each
account Insured to $fl000.

Courtesy Asked of
Air Raid Wardens
During Blackouts
Reports that air raid wardens
did a little "rough talking" to
citizens on Sunday evening have
been received by the authorities,
and civilian defense officials
said Wednesday that they are
instructing tha wardens to fol
low a policy of courtesy In giv
ing warnings.
It Is believed the harsh talk
was confined to a few excep
tional CUSPS.
One atory, related at an "after
session" of tho city council, waa
that an old couple, who had been
silting in front of a radio and
had not heard tho blackout
whistles, were told that air
planes were overhead and they
had better get their lights out.
They were badly frightened by
this Ingenious and inaccurate
warning, "
