I A “Roll of Honor Bank” j
REPORT OF THE CONDITION OF
The O’Neill National Bank I
AS MADE TO THE COMPTROLLER OF THE Cl RRENCY JUNE 30, 1930.
RESOURCES
LOANS AND DISCOUNTS $194,547.70
This consists of notes given by our
customers, mostly farmers—a very
large percent of which is secured by
chattel mortgage or other collateral.
OVERDRAFTS 109.88
This represents money due us from
depositors who have checked out
more than they have on deposit.
This item, while small, reflects no
credit on us as it is illegal for bank
officials to permit ANVONE to
overdraw their uccount, but such
items inadvertently creep in occa
sionally.
UNITED STATES BONDS 112,250.00
These are gold obligations of the U.
S. Valued by National Bank Exam
iner on June 12, 1930 (last exam
ination) at $2,660.69 more than we
are carrying them on our book.
OTHER BONDS and SECURITIES 84,877.15
This consists of municipal and in
dustrial bonds; county, township
and school warrants. Valued by Na
tional Bank Examiner on June 12,
1930, at $979.93 less than we are
carrying them on our books.
BANKING HOUSE and FIXTURES 6,068.00
Consisting of bank building, vaults,
safes and fixtures of all kinds worth
about double the above amount.
OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED 6,000.00
This consists of a clear 320 acre im
proved farm in Hpit county and a
dwelling house in Neligh, Nebr.
CASH AND SIGHT EXCHANGE 269,775.86
This consists of cash in vault, and
due from other banks; note that this
is over 65% of our total deposits. -
TOTAL .. $672,628.59
LIABILITIES
CAPITAL STOCK $ 50,000.00
This represents the cash paid in
on the original investment by the
stock holders.
SURPLUS AND UNDIVIDED
PROFITS 82,858.82
This is a part of the earnings of
the bank that have been set aside
from time to time to cover possible
losses and for the further protec
tion of our depositors. This fund is
4.'t per cent of all our loans and dis- i+fi
counts and 166 per cent of our : S
capital. • j
CIRCULATION 50,000.00 J|
This represents the "currency” or j B
“national bank notes” we have in Jr
circulation for which we have de- gjj
posited with the Treasurer of the 5
United States $50,000.00 U. S. Gold f J
bonds to guarantee the redemption tj
of these notes. £3
DEPOSITS 480,769.77
Represents money deposited in this J J
bank by firms or individuals, a part v+g
of which is subject to check on de- 5
mand and a part on time certificates B
of deposit running six or twelve ;2
months, on which we pay 4 per cent 3
interest.

PAYABLE NONE gf
TOTAL_ $672,628.59 ||
>■ Since we adopted the system of analyzing the various items that make up the bank statement c3
E: to make it more comprehensive to the general public we have had many favorable comments, not f £
J; only from our patrons but also from the public press, judges of courts, lawyers and others that ££
If have extensive dealings with banks. tS
E: Good banking practice requires that doubtful paper be charged off as soon as it may develope J £
from time to time. Our large undivided profit account makes this possible and it is the practice of jS
4 this bank. Our last examination on June 12, 1930, Mr. C. W. Lyon, National Bank Examiner, re- jp
r; ported no “doubtful” paper and but four “slow” notes, aggregating $$2,733.00 out of a total of r|
r; 463 notes. (The reported four “slow” notes, all are secured by real estate mortgages save one.)
Our cash on hand is $244,907.00 more than the law requires, which, coupled with our U. S. 4
t: bonds and other bonds (which can be converted into cash on the market any day) make what may 4|
be properly termed as total Cash Reserve of $416,902.00, or more than 85 per cent of our total de- ^
P; With this condition of liquidity we could of course, if necessary, pay off every depositor with- |‘|
Y '■ in a week’s time without calling a single local loan.
We are always in the market for desirable well secured loans.
