AMERICAN name
GIVEN TO BANK

The German Trust and Savings
bank directors and stockholders
today at a special session voted
unanimously to change the name
of the bank to the American Trust
and Savings bank, by which title
the corporation will henceforth be
known.
On April 9 the directors in a
special meeting formally decided
to change the name eliminating
The word German" This action
was taken, it is said, in order that
the public might know that the in
stitution is purely American.
Although several of the stock
holders of the institution are of
German descent and German born,
not one vote against the proposed
change was cast.
