Using calculators, many credit unions now pay interest to depositors on. a daily basis, and at a higher rate than the banks to boot. They say it's easy. This buck should stop with Rowland Frazee, president of the Canadian Bankers' Association. He should per- suade the banks to play fair with their depositors. If they don't, the federal government will probably force their hand. It plans to reintroduce a bill, the Bor- rowers' and Depositors' Pro- tection Act, which reached the committee stage at the last session of Parliament. It would require banks to pay interest for the time they have your money, not on minimum balances. How about it, - Rowland Frazee?" Note: The powerful bank- ing lobby in Ottawa are fight- ing the Protection Act legis- lation and lobbying to main- tain their high interest on TROJAN HYBRID CORN SEED Not alwa ys better, but better overall. This Fall, more Canadian {armers will see the figures that show Trojan does a better job for them With corn that" yields, stands, dries down --1s in some way better Trojan won't come out on top every time, of course But Trojan will win overall Simply because Trojan has a better chance of developing the best hybrids + One reason: all-those Phzer- research farms In Ontario. In the US corn belt. In Florida. They even have some in Hawa where they get 3%, generations of corn a year! company Ask us if Trojan has a hybrid that will do better on your farm We'll tell you if we don't We're that kind of ART PUCKRIN RR.3 - LITTLE BRITAIN Chargex and bank credit ' cards. And who is Rowland Frazee? He's President of the Montreal-based Royal Bank of Canada...part of a consortium of Canadian (&. U.S.) banks to loan racist South Africa $800 million. Recently the majority of Canadian churches con- demned such action and ap: pealed to the Canadian government for economic sanctions against "South Africa. Canada has a trade deficit of over $100 million with the racist Vorster regime. The church group is spon- sored by the Anglican, Bap- tist, Catholic, Lutheran, Presbyterian and United churches of Canada. Task force chairman Rev. John Zimmerman who is execu- tive secretary of the Luther- an Church in Canada said '"The banks are helping to support a Nazi police state that will bring bloodshed". Another headline says "South Africa may defy UN by exploding nuclear bomb", (they have vast uranium - deposits). As of May this year the banks had an all-time loan record of $67.8 billion...a 340 per cent jump over 1967. Their profit in 1976 (they call it balance of revenue) was $1.2 billion. The banks can no longer justify ripping off fick histomers by not pay- ing-depositors their rightful interest on a daily basis...in the same manner they charge borrowers. Dean J. Kelly.
