Central Carolina BankRevises Service Charges

Central Carolina Bank andTrust Company has drastical.ly revised its schedule of ser-vice charges to personal check-ing account customers. CharlesF. Bahnson, Assistant Vice-President, said today. Bahn.son, who is in charge of thebank's operations in theMocksville- Cooleemee area,said that under the new policy,personal accounts which do

' not fall below SIOO duringthe month would receive nocharge.

"Many years ago," Bahnsonsaid, "A checking account wasused only by the well-to-do.The average man paid his billsin cash. But today a check-ing account is almost a ne-cessity. It's the cheapest wayto pay bills, and provides abuilt-in record of payment.And the cost has remained ve-ry low in comparison to thelevel of prices of other basicneeds."

Bahnson said that the newservice charge arrangement,which applies to personal ac-counts only, will be cheaperfor the customer, will simpli-fy his record - keeping, and,will enable him to make fulleruse of his account. He saidthat the new schedule appliesto all offices of the bank,err? will be used for CCB'sMocksville Office, when it op-ens in September.
