STATEMENT OF BANKS
MAKE 4 GOOD SHOWING

Considering the fact that the last
statements of the city banks, APP
pearing this week, We're made at the
close of what is commonly known as
the duh season, their financial con-
dition is shown TO be in fine shape
The total individual deposits was
not so large as shown in the pre-
yious reports, but the decrease was
probably due to farmers withdraw
ing funds to purchase supplies at
the beginning of the cotton picking
season. The last reports show ag-
gregate deposits amounting to
S943.1 SO, compared With ST.
057 ,916.71 in the previous reports.
