686.390.54. On Oct. 81, 1918. the total
resources were $196.4S1, 1904. The
figures are taken from reports made
by the national banks to the comp
troller of the treasury and by the state
institutions to Commissioner Drach
The state banks show gain during
the year of $706, 279.41. The loss was
in the resources of the national banks
