Validity of Wel

Bank Says Effort to Release Creditor
From Necessity of Tracing
Funds Ineffective
The constitutionality of the Wel-
overcome a court decision with rela-
tion to tracing of moneys collected
by a bank into its general assets in
order to impress them with a trust
!"i:nd. was argued in a case before
de-jthe supreme court commission Mon
day. Searle & Chnpin Lumber com
'pany of Lincoln drew a eight draft
with a bill of lading attached unon
a St. Louis firm and deposited it with
jthe Bank of Eagle. The laUer de-
j posited it with the Fit Ni.-ional
; bank of Lincoln, with other items.
!an(j later drew out nearly all of its
it was reorganized. The First Na
tional bank, after that at S. gle had
cloned, refused to return the draft
to the company, electing to st:::i(1
by its rights as a subsequent holder
vithcut notice under the 1929 law.
The Bank of Eagle could not com
ply with the demand on it to re
tarn the draft, because it did not
have it.
The question at issue was whether
the Eagle bank accepted the draft
for collection as agent, ov whether
by reason of its having bt-en deposit
ed it became the owner and thus the
situation of debtor and creditor was
created. The company contends that
the relationship of principal and
agent was not changed, either by
reason of the initfil credit granted
to it on its passbook nor by the right
j(,f withdrawal. It had an overdraft
at the time, and this was extinguish-
led by the deporit.
The
company's attorneys argued
,hat the assets of the Bank of Eagle
are impressed with a trist in its
fr.vor for the amount of the proceeds
irrespective of whether the fund rep
resenting such item can be traced
and identified as part of euch assets
or has been intermingled with or
converted into other assists of the
bank, citing th? 1929 law as BUtb-
(ority for this contention. This law
waives the necessltj- of tracing the
that the law failed to meet the test
I of constitutional rcquirenento as to
form. The companj-'s attorney says
that as it never deposited the draft
other than for collection, it is not
bound by the act of reorganization
of the bank.

: States. But any wet ega tell you
