CHILDREN KNOWLEDGE GOVERNMENT
School Savings of $29,000 Are In Closed Broad Street Bank, Bank
Red Bank schoolchildren and their parents are indignant over the reply received from the office of the controller of currency regarding the reopening of the closed Broad Street National bank Red Bank in which are deposits of $29,000 saved by the students in small weekly stallments. The reply from Washington came in answer to letter bearing tition with 500 schoolchildren's names addressed to President Roosevelt. The White House referred the communication to the controlloffice. The reply referring the schoolchildren states: "Schoolchildren, particularly of the kindergarten and lower grade age, can hardly be expected to have sufficient knowledge of the affairs of the Broad Street National Bank to enable them to intelligently discuss the reorganization of the bank." It was signed by Gibbs Lyons, deputy controller. Alston Beekman, attorney, who has been endeavoring to reopen the closed bank declared that "school officials were afraid that the reply together with the treatment already received by the children will forshake their confidence in any bank. Many of the children who saved in the Red Bank institution did with the idea of having money with which to continue their schooling. Now their assets are tied up in closed bank and many are deprived of the higher education for which they saved." The Red Bank school officials point to the fact that the children persuaded by the banks in the country save their money in small weekly deposits. Many saved to the extent of $5 weekly, while other less fortunate saved smaller amounts.
Edwin S. Gilland, supervising principal, in Red Bank, more than month ago declared that fect the minds of the children regarding the saving of money will be destroyed unless they receive some recognition or aid from Washthe school funds ington regarding now tied up in the closed bank." The student council, there, has not decided as to what course will take since receiving the reply Washington. The matter from left entirely in the hands of Beekman. ordinance was unreasonable and that the city had no right to prohibit traffic from main artery and one of which the federal government had contributed to build. Counsel for the city contended the ordinance reasonable, that special conditions made it necessary and that since it was passed only one slight accident had occurred on the skyway, whereas in the year ceding its passage there were 40 serious mishaps.
