RINGLING STATE BANK SOUND FINANCIALLY
Judge Ford has signed the application for discharge of the receivership of the Ringling State Bank. All depositors have been paid in full. and all other obligations pending at the time the bank suspended have been discharged. This includes a payment for government bonds removed from the bank, and a debt of more than $10,000 owing to the War Finance Corporation. Everything has been fully paid except a part of the county money on deposit at the time the old bank closed its doors. This obligation has been assumed by the Commercial Bank and will be discharged by them. The bank has been in the hands of George Fowlie, receiver, since 1923. It is now in a sound and prosperous condition, and commands the confidence and support of the community. Perhaps no bank in the state was in more deplorable shape than the Ringling bank at the time of its failure, and no region harder hit by the business depression following 1921 than that section of the country.
