C. Burnett, president of the Waukegan National bank. "From former cases," he said, "I am of the opinion that the eurety company will name the place of de posit of all county funds and will de mand that the monthly balance be kept as low as possible to limit their responsibility. That will mean thai there will be no money to be made by. the banks on the county funds, and will mean that the bank becomes merely a collection agency and a con venience to the county treasurer's office. "It is true that we pay 3 percent on state funds, but state funds are sometimes not touched for a year at a time, and anytime there is to be a withdrawal of state funds, the banks are notified the previous month. At other times they have the money there and know it can be used by the bank at any time. "The only solution to the interest question on county funds that I can see, is that the banks agree to pay A& certain interest amount on the minimum balance from. month to month.
