To reimburse itself for the expense
of handling cheeking account:;,
against which the number of checks
drawn is out of proportion to the
size of the average balance, the First
National bank of Lincoln, beginning
March 1 will make an activity charge
for checks on accounts averaging
$300 or less, after allowing one free
check for each $10 on deposit.
Notice to that effect, says the State
Journal, has been sent to the bank's
customers. The Continental Nation
al of that city is working on a simi
lar plan, but formal announcement
of it will not be made until a later
date. The National Bank of Com
merce is studying the plan and ana
lysing its accounts but has not yet
decidtd whether or not it will inau
gurate the charge, M. Weil, presi
dent, said.
The First National's announce
ment says that analysis by many
banks has shown that n bank can
handle one check for each $10 aver
age balance in a customer's account
and that the cost on each check paid
in excess of that number is approx
imately three cents. Accordingly,
the bank will charge three cents for
each check nr.id against a customer's
account, after allowing one free
cluck for each $10 of average bal
ance in the accounts. This applies
in accounts averaging less than $300.
Thus, if a customer's average bal
ance is $50 he is allowed five free
checks. In addition, fifty cents a
month will bo charged as an ac
count charge if the average balance
is less than $100. Activity charges
may be avoided, the First National
explains, if customers will give at
tention to their avenge balances and
issue checks accordingly.
Banks over the state aro general
iv adopting this form of service
charge in a greater or less degree and
Plattsmouth banks make a service
charge of 50c a month on accounts
under $50. The cliarge for handling
checks is expected will also be taken
up by the smaller banks In a more
modified form. how rer. is a great
many small accounts are to be found
in the smaller banks of the state.

Plattsmouth

Moscow, Feb. 4. Increased con
centration of Communist and Labor
organizations all over the world upon
the problem of organizing the unem
ployed is advocated in an article
which A. Lozovsky, head of the "Red '
Trade Union International, publi
in today's issue of Trud, the organ
of the Soviet trade unions. He also
urges preparation for the celebration
of an International day of strouggie
against unemployment on Feb. 25.
Mr. Lozovsky defines the objective
of the Communist and Red Trade Trn
ion International regarding unem
ployment as "not patience but stormy
protest; not waiting, but passing into
offensive; not charity, but insurance
at the expense of the state and em
ployers: not entreaties with out
stretched hands, but organized class
hatred against those guilty of mass
iiunger and poverty." He urges
strcnw hi'iing of Communist organ
izatioiis for unemployed.
He st.ites there is a great gap be
tween the amount and severity of
unemployment in America and Eng
land and a comparatively sr.iail num-
