3 MORE BANKS IN STATE CLOSE PHOENIX, March 23.-Suspension of business by three Arizona banking institutions today overwhelmed the state banking department. in the of. fice of State Auditor Charles W. Fairfield, with work. The department was without enough examiners to take charge of the closed institutions so Mr. Fairfield appointed two temporary examiners. The banks closed and the men placed in charge of each were: The Citizens State Bank of Phoenix, with H. M. Moritz, deputy bank examiner in charge: the Exchange Bank of Peoria, with K. G. Freeland/ formerly assistant cashier of the Central Bank of Phoenix. in charge: and the Central Bank of Wickenburg, with E. L. Riggle in charge. The general appropriation bill passed at the last session of the legislature provides funds for two more deputy bank examiners but this. money will not be available until July first.

THREE BANKS IN THE COUNTYFAIL TOOPEN DOORS YESTERDAY Three banks, one in Phoenix, the Citizens of Five Points, the Central Bank of Wickenburg and the Exchange Bank of Peoria, suspended operations yesterday morning from different causes, all of them more or less related to the closing of the Central Bank of Phoenix last Monday. The closing of the Wickenburg bank was precipitated by a story telegraphed to the Journal-Miner of Prescott on Monday in which it was stated that the Wickenburg bank had suspended, though it had not done so, and there was no probability that it would. It was well within the legal reserve, but the run was inevitable and yesterday morning after a conference with the state bank examiner it was decided not to reopen the bank for business. The Citizens bank of Five Points had also been subjected to a disastrous run on Tuesday. It too was well within the legal reserve and was in a prosperous condition, but without means to withstand the steady and heavy drain of a day upon it. The state banking department found itself overwhelmed with business and without provision for the employment of enough examiners for the closed institutions. Accordingly, K. G. Freeland, former assistant cashier of the Central bank, was sent by State Auditor Fairfield to take charge of the Peoria bank: E. L. Riggle is temporarily est charge of the Wickenburg bank, and H. M. Moritz, deputy bank examiner, of the Citizens bank. The general appropriation bill passed in the late legislative session provides for two more deputy bank examiners, but the funds appropriated will not be available before July 1. The state has funds in all of these institutions, all amply secured by bonds. There were wild rumors throughout the day of the suspension of other small banks in this county and of two outside the county, but there was no confirmation of them at the office of the state auditor. o

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.

FAIRFIELD HAS ONE BANK OPEN Deposit Slips With Deferred Installment Payments Arranged to Save Peoria Bank; Central Bank Outlook Brighter (Journal-Miner Capital Bureau) PHOENIX, April 20.-Under a plan of reorganization which has been approved by Chas. W. Fairfield, state bank superintendent and auditor, the Exchange bank of Peoria is to open its doors today. An increase has been made in the bank's surplus, though not in its capital. The depositors have signed an agreement to accept certificates of deposit, payable 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16 months after April 1, each payment representing a fifth part of the original deposit. The plan for the reopening of the Central bank of Phoenix is still meeting with favorable consideration, and it is stated on good authority that the bank will reopen shortly, without the necessity of going thru an expensive receivership.
