TRAYLOR CHECKS RUN ON HIS BANKS Plea for Faith Wins at Two Institutions.- Plot by "Enemies" Charged. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, June 25.-Melvin A. Traylor, considered by many Democratic presidential timber, stemmed an incipient run on his $25,000,000 First National Bank and $10,000,000 First Union Trust & Savings Bank today by appearing on the banking floor and pleading for faith.

Able to Pay Off, He Says. Both banking floors were crowded with customers, a large number of whom aparently intended withdrawing accounts because of fear engendered by recent closings. Four closings today, one in the Loop, brought to 39 the number of banks here that have shut down this month. "The bank will be open during the usual business hours and will be open Monday morning," Traylor told patrons. "It will be willing and able to pay off any depositor who wishes to withdraw his funds." Referring to the alleged plot, Traylor said: "This was promoted by those who are not your friends or our friends. Fortunately, we are in the best position in our history. Please tell your neighbors that we will be open Monday morning and every morning at 9 o'clock." Crowds Disperse Quickly. The crowds quickly thinned after he had spoken and within an hour, bank attaches said, normalcy had been restored. The Loop bank to close was the Chicago Bank of Commerce with $5,200,000 deposits. It had absorbed the Union Bank of Chicago last September. Its assets are understood to cover deposits. Three other banks in outlying sections closed. two of them in North Shore suburbs-the First National Bank of Wilmette and the Northbrook State Bank The fourth was the South Ashland National Bank. These three together had about $1,000,000 deposits.

NATION-WIDE 'PLOT' TO RUIN BANKS PROBED Traylor Says Campaign to Destroy Confidence Known for Months. RED LINK IS CHARGED Detroit Police Hunt for Alleged Communist Head of Drive. By United Press CHICAGO, July 27.-Melvin A. Traylor, president of the First National bank of Chicago, charged today that a nation-wide plot to destroy public confidence in banks has been in operation for many weeks. Meantime, George Rowland, alias George Salzman, wanted by Michigan police in connection with a reported communistic plot to blast the banks of the middle west through destruction of public confidence, was reported either in Chicago or en route here. "There is not the slightest doubt that persons seeking the overthrow of the American banking system have carried on their attacks in all parts of the country," Traylor said. "They have worked through anonymous letters, anonymous telephone calls, false rumors and in other ways. "I believe the recent runs on the First National and other Chicago banks were caused, at least in part, by this destructive and subversive campaign."

SOCIAL REVOLUTION IN COUNTRY OBJECT OF RUMOR CAMPAIGN Ramifications of Conspiracy Are Revealed by Police at Pontiac, Mich. SEEK REGIONAL DIRECTOR System Followed Was for Agents to Undermine Depositors' Faith in Banks Pontiac, Mich., July 27.-(P)-State police sent out orders Wednesday for the arrest of George Rowland on a charge he acted as Detroit agent of a radical group which planned a social revolution by circulation of rumors attacking a number of large banks in the country. The officers said that a raid on Rowland's hotel room here Tuesday revealed ramifications of the plot. Capt. Ira H. Marmon of the state police, who directed an investigation of Rowland's activities here and led the raid on his room, said letters and telegrams seized established that Rowland had directed circulation of rumors against banks in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Michigan and that he had been instrumental in attacks against the First National bank here. Marmon believes Rowland was warned by a confederate and fled. Marmon said the letters showed that Rowland was one of several regional directors of attacks against banks and that a number of subordinates were working under his direction in the middle west. particularly in Chicago and Cleveland. Called Big Depositors Telephone conversations from Rowland's hotel room, which were tapped by detectives, Marmon said, showed the method of operation of the ring. Agents going into a new city, secured the names of prominent business men from the city directory, called them by telephone and warned them that banks in which they had money were unsound. Letters written by Rowland but not yet mailed also were taken. These, Marmon said, asked for reports on the progress of campaigns and suggested means of procedure. Advertisements assuring depositors of the soundness of the First National bank here recently were placed in a Pontiac newspaper after oficials of the institution said they felt that pressure had been brought to bear against depositors. One letter, which had been written to Rowland by "Comrade HG" at Cleveland read: Tells of Campaign "Following your instructions to me, I am writing to give you as clear a picture as possible of our campaign against the banks in this district. "You know it is a slow proposition to get people steamed up for a run. However, your telephone program seems to be working out fine. There is considerable unrest here and we are informed by clerks in both the Union Trust and the Cleveland Trust that the depositors are very nervous. We have tried to keep up the good work. "We note here with great satisfaction that you are making considerable progress in Pontiac and that you are taking a good crack at the one jug (bank) which is there, the First National, and it seems to us if you can that over a good dent will be put made in the bank at Detroit and it won't be long before our combined efforts will make a lot of trouble there as well as here, Chicago and elsewhere. Object to Strip Faith "I did not have much trouble in convincing the agitation propaganda bureau that this was important work and the sooner we strip the petty bourgeois and the white collar stiff we of his faith in banks the sooner will bring about the unrest that will lead to the revolution. "All of the other activities: campaign, unemployed councils, workers' ex-service men's league, etc., are going forward satisfactorily. "We will all hope to see you in the hear future as we know you are in a not spot. Yours for the revolution." A letter written to "Dear Comrade GH" read in part: "I am very encouraged because we have had plenty of runs against the banks, particularly the big five in Chicago, big meaning the First National, Continental Illinois, etc., and the Union Trust and Cleveland Trust in Cleveland and others. My work here n breaking down the outpost of the banking structure in Detroit by breakfruit." ng the First National is bearing

FOSTER DENIES 'RED PLOT' TO DESTROY BANKS 'Whispering Drive' Charges Attempt to Find Excuses for Crashes, He Says. By United Press CHICAGO, July 28. Federal agents and police today hunted a mysterious individual, described as George Rowland, whom they charge with being an agent in a widespread campaign by persons of Communistic beliefs to wreck banks by starting runs among panicky depositors. The sensational charges were met with direct denial by William Z. Foster, Communist party candidate for President, that such an individual as Rowland exists. Foster denounced the accusations of a plot as "deliberate fabrications." Regardless of Rowland's existence, reports were in the hands of government investigators showing banks in many cities victims of runs apparently started by telephone "whispering" campaigns. Bankers were inclined to agree with federal agents that a concerted drive had been made. Traylor Charges "Plot" Melvin A. Traylor, president of the large First National Bank of Chicago, was positive an organized campaign had caused recent runs on his and other large Chicago institutions. "I have information," he said, "from virtually every large bank in the nation indicating a plot to wreck banks by unfounded rumors. Anonymous telephone calls were used in attempts to cause panic." At Salt Lake City, Utah, banks reported their belief such a plot was being attempted at the present moment. At Washington, D. C., federal authorities said the department of justice had investigated a virulent campaign against banks in a Pacific coast city. "Whispering" Campaign Traced The same investigators said, however, that study of runs showed many inspired by personal malice or misinformation. Authorities of the twin cities reported a recent whispering campaign against large banks there. Reports of similar activity came from Cleveland, O. Police of Pontiac, Mich., continued to reveal details of the plot which they said was aimed at the destruction of the First National bank there.
