EXCHANGE BANK OF PEORIA WILL REOPENTODAY Institution Resumes Business Just One Month After Suspension Stronger In Every Way It is Declared The Exchange bank of Peoria which voluntarily closed its doors on March 23 will reopen again this morning for business. Just one month from the day the bank decided to suspend business, it resumes banking stronger in every way than it has been for many months. The reopening of the bank is the cause of general rejoicing among the residents of Peoria who almost to an individual have stood by the institution, confident in their regard for the business ability of the officials and their belief that the bank soon would resume. Practically the same plan employed by the Citizens state bank of Phoenix in reopening that institution was used by the patrons and officials of the Peoria bank. it was onnounced by Charles W. Fairfield, superintendent C1 state banks. Practically 95 per cent of the depositors have signed an agreement to allow their deposits to remain in the bank for one year or more. They have co-operated with the state bank superintendent in every way tending toward the resumption of business which was predicted by Mr. Fairfield shortly after he examined the affairs of the institution following its closing. Steady withdrawal of deposits of the Exchange Bank of Peoria started when the Glendale bank closed its doors. It had a branch in Peoria and there was considerable uneasiness occasioned in that town. The failure of the Central bank in Phoenix to open about a month ago added to the financial difficulties as it was a correspondent of the Peoria institution. are bright now and the But bank the resumes skies business stronger than ever. The reserve, which had been run down, has been made good by Peoria people, and under the plan of reopening, the surplus is to be increased $10,000 within the next 60 days. The deposits of the bank at the time of closing was $142,000. The capital stock is $25,000. The officers of the bank are Charles F. Dalton, president; J. M. Hall, vice president; P. Latham, vice president: and L. A. Bechtol, cashier. The bank was organized in 1917. "Everyone has stuck by us." declared Charles F. Dalton. president of the Exchange Bank of Peoria, over the telephone last night. "There has not been a knocker. We believe we are stronger than when the bank was closed." This is the second bank in the valvey to be reopened within a short time through the combined efforts of the bank officials, the state bank superintendent and the depositors. The Citizens State Bank of Phoenix, which failed to open at the same time a month ago, was reopened a few days ago. Recently the state effected a consolidation of the Security Bank and Trust Company of Tucson and the Tucson National bank.

SAYS REOPENING OF CENTRAL BANK IS UPTODEPOSITORS' "The reopening of the Central bank is up to the depositors." That was the way the Central bank situation was summed up yesterday by the committee of depositors which has been working on plans to reopen the bank. On the willingness of the depositors to co-operate depends the resumption of business by the bank, it was declared. A mass meeting of all depositors of the bank will be held at the Shrine auditorium at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon. At this meeting definite plans for reopening the institution will be presented. "It is imperative that every depositor attend the meeting," said a member of the depositors' committee last hight. "The opening of the bank is up to the depositors now. If the bank opens, every depositor must help. They must start by attending the meeting Saturday. "If the depositors do not act, the bank will be thrown into the hands of a. receiver, which would result most unfavorably for all persons concerned," he continued. In this connection. he said that the receiver for the defunct Glendale bank will soon make his report. This report, he continued, will probably show that the bank will be unable to pay more than a fraction on the dollar. The depositors' committee has been working diligently for the past several days in an effort to get plans into shape for the bank's reopening. Bank officials and attorneys have also cooperated to make the reopening possible, and it is believed that the affairs of the institution are in shape now to throw open the doors if the depositors will extend their co-operation,

O. Bainbridge signed the bond as sureties. The complaint was made by W.L. Abbott, a rancher living near Glendale, who charges that Myers drew a note for $534.92 on Feb. 26, 1919, payable to the Glandale State bank, to which Abbott alteges Myers had forged his name.
