SECOND REPORT MADE
BY BANK COMMITTEE

The committee appointed at the
meeting of the depositors of the de-
funct First National bank held Monday
night, have made a second report
which is given here:
The committee representing the
depositors of the First National bank
met the late directors of that insti-
tuition this Thursday afternoon. A
lengthy discussion took place and
several plans for reconstruction were
untolded to the committee.
There appears little doubt but
that within the next "a hours such a
specific course viii be adopted.
The committee is firmly PRESSING
that, whatever scheme shall be adopt,
ed. the first consideration will be the
repayment of those depositors most
urgently requiring relief.
In all schemes proposed the re-
payment in full of depositors accounts
occupies the forefront.
Respectfully submitted.

ours because we have remained stead
fast to the idea that our relation to
the public is such that We must give
service and recognize the demands of
the people in a growing state.
Il will refrain from taking your time
in quoting figures that show the exact
growth of our banks, as this audience
is composed almost entirely OF men
who are familiar with the compiled re.
ports OF both National and State banks
OF Florida. Suffice to say that the to-
tai resources of these institutions have
increased during the past year beyond
the most sanguine expectations.
The very large increase in deposits
in the banks of Florida is not only
an indication of material development
OF our varied resources. but also a
glowing tribute by way of confidence
reposed in them, to those who guide
the destinies of our financial institu-
tons
