from State
Fund of $260,111 for Aid in Bank
Failures Not to Be Distrib
uted Until 1930.
Lincoln. July 12. Though the leg
islature appropriated $260,111.34 for
repayment to depositors of banks op
erated by the guaranty fund com
mission, it will be several months
before any of this amount is forth
coming. Secretary Bliss of the de
partment of trade and commerce an
nounced Friday.
His statement, he said, was prompt
ed by a constantly increasing flow of
mail from anxious depositors who
are seeking repayment.
Delay in payment, Mr. Bliss ex
plained, was due to the inability of
the state treasury to meet the ap
propriation before a levy is made
and the amount taken in tax col
lections some time in December.
The levy. Mr. Bliss said Treas
urer Stebbins had informed him. will
be made within the next 30 days and
payments should be made on these
claims during the first quarter of
1930.
Fred H; Johnson, former secretary
to Governor Weaver, is now in charge
of an audit of the banks concerned
and upon this audit will be deter
mined the amount to be paid to each
claimant.
Records in each case, Mr. Bliss
said, are complete and there will be
no necessity for the filing of any
additional statement by any of the
many claimants. Omaha Bee-News.
TWO JI02E BANKS CLOSED

chants' Bank and Trust company and
the Atlantic Hank and Trust company
here closed Friday. Runs also were
made on the Daytona Beach Bank
and Trust company and the First Na
tional bank, the other two financial
institutions here but they were able
to meet the demands of depositors'
withdrawals.
The two bank failures here
brought to five the number of banks
that have closed in Florida within
the past two days. The Volusia Coun
ty Bank and Trust company and the
Frst National bank in Lelaud and the
Colonial Bank and Trust company
of Miami closed Thursday.
Four banks in central Florida

Fouts of all four has been arrested
