Last Tlmei Today "OFFICER 13" Monte Blue-Lila Pins: "GALLOPI.IG GHOST" with Red Grange Cartoon-Comedy ANNOUNCING Rgorganizat iyn Citizens National Bank The officers and directors of the Citizens National Bunk nnutiuiicq tlint lh3 bunk has been reorganized by procuring from the Comptroller of the Currency Washington a charter for new bank which will be known as the Citizens a i a Dank In Abilene. The new hnnk lias been organized by cooperation of local people interested in the hunk with the Banking authorities and with the aid anil up- provnl of the Federal Reserve Bank and the Hecon- stniction Finance Corporation, Mr.

J. M. before his death, took an active part in the reorganization and his son, 0. K. Radford, has taken his place on the board of Directors.

The new bank has a newly paid in wish capital of $200,000, of which $100,000 preferred stock is held by Reconstruction Finance Corporation and $100,000 is common stock fully paid for in casli by directors of the bank and a few other share holders; nnd in addition the same persons have paid in a casli surplus of $10,000, and procured $80.000 to complete reorganization so that a total of new money has been provided, thus placing this bank in strong cash position. The directors feel that the cooperation accorded by the banking authorities and Reconstruction Finance Corporation constitute a very strong endorsement of the action taken, and means that every loan and asset of the new bank lias heen carefully examined and approved by the government organizations before any investment of the Federal in the new stock could be authorized, giving assurance to nil interested persons that the new bank is in a thoroughly sound and satisfactory condition. The reorganization was found desirable in order to eliminate from the bank all real estate owned by the bank except its banking house, and all other non- liquid assets, and slow or loans, and place the bank in a sound and a condition. The new baiik has taken only the sound and desirable assets and good and collectible loans of the old bank and has assumed and guaranteed payment of the deposits of the bonk, and lias no indebtedness: except to depositors. The business, so far as the public is concerned, will continue without a moment's in- tnrruption, in fact, no one would know the difference if they were not told.

SAME OFFICERS The same active officers and substantially the sama directors will be connected with the bank as heretofore, and they bespeak from the public a continuation of the business which the i has accorded the bank for so many years in the past. George L. Paxton, president. W. G.
