Franklin Savings ends era of free checking after 97 years
Franklin Savings customers face new checking fees after a year with a $1 million loss on free services. Ed Barnes, VP of marketing, says deregulation and expanded paperwork raised costs, leaving the bank to require minimum balances or consolidate accounts to avoid charges. Fees set to begin August 1 after earlier miscommunications.

Kassebaum backs sanctions on South Africa shift in stance
Sen. Nancy Kassebaum, long an advocate of engagement, calls for forceful U.S. sanctions against South Africa. She proposes banning new loans and investments, terminating landing rights for SA aircraft, and enforcing a 1990s ban on gold coin imports and U.S. computer sales to security forces. Her move signals a capitol shift as House disinvestment passes and moderates lose faith in Reagan policy.
