Notwithstanding some ambiguity. in the wording of the Ordinance the Bank fully recognises its ob ligation which is in accord with the terms of Section 10 (3) that where interest was provided by agreement or statute or otherwise it will pay interest for the obesipe- tion period at the due rate on all credit balances, whether such vate was one percent or more,+

That the Bank would, as sug- gerted, plead that payment of in- ferant, would be against.public policy in entirely erroneous, and completely unwarranted, as the Dank would ever contemplate sttch an attitude.
