DORMANT BANK BALANCES.
DORMANT BANK BALANCES. Dreams of Forgotten Hoards Shattered. I LessThan £ 3,000,000 I The fascinating stories of the vast wealth of dead and forgotten Crocuses hoarded in the musty cobwebbed cellars of the London banks were rudely shat- tered on Monday when the Select Com- mittee on Dormant Bank Balances and Unclaimed beourities presented its report to the House of Commons. Visions of millions to be handed over to the State or restored to the starving descendants of wealthy but secretive nobles and commoners faded away before the light of fact. I ONLY ABOUT 13,000,000. The amount of unclaimed money lying dormant, in the banks is roundly £ 8,000,000. Of this 6um lees than £ 3,000,000 is the property of persons who are untraceable. The Committee add prosaically:— "Accordingly it follows that donnant bank balances arc, from the point of view of the State, of no great concern." The Committee proceed to make a series of recommendations concerning the future disposal of unclaimed bank bal- ances. With regard to boxes and parcels, the Committee say that there is a consider- able quantity lying in the strong rooms of banks, and that there is a proportion of which the owners have lost sight, and which in all probability will never he opened unless Parliament gives directions for their inspection. Many of these boxes are doubtless empty, the owners having withdrawn thd contents and left the boxes. Others contain legal and financial documents which have long ceased to I have any value. PICTURES IN THE BANK. I But when all these largo deductions I have been made there is probably a small residium of boxes and parcels of which the owners have lost sight, and which contain articles of some value or papers i of some interest. j We are told, for instance, that in 'th e j Bank of England there is a box of pic- tures of which the owner cannot be j found."
