Iianll Account -

TORONTO (CP) - James Muir. chairman and president of the Royal Bank of Canada, today fore- cast a new type of bank account.a personal checking account. to elim- inate frequent issuing of cheques against savings accounts

Mr. Muir. speaking at a meet- ing of the Canadian Club. said no interest would be allowed on the I w accounts but chequ books for uie with them would be sold to customers.

"This arrangement would make

for a better chequing service than is now possible with savings ac- counts and it would have the ad- vantage of making savings ac- counts what they truly should be. a way for the public to accumu- late and hold their savings," he said. Since 1945 the banking public had been drawing an increasing number of cheques on savings ac- counts.
