AS OF 1933 AND 1937 ||
Below we publish two statements, one showing the condition of this bank ? I
October 28,1933, three weeks after organization; the other as of October 28, g I
1937, at which time the Chief Examiner issued a call for statements. It is | I
gratifying to note that our institution is enjoying its share of banking pat- ? I
ronage and we have been able to pay off our entire capital debentures (which ? I
matured nineteen years hence) in less than four years, all for which we are ? I
very grateful to our friends, both old and new. The Board of Directors are 5 I
pleased toquote from a recent letter of the Chief Bank Examinees follows: 8 I
"The examiners have asked me to commend to you the excellent manner g I
in which the operation of the Bank is being handled and to express their ap- 8 I
preciation for the cooperation received during the course of the examination." j I
