THOUGHT BANK SAFE,
DECLARES AMBLER
Former State Official Says All
Dealings With North Penn
Were Honorable
DEPL0RES SNYDER'S ATTACK

Charles A. Amber. at Ocean City,
n. j., has made a statement declaring
all of his dealings with the North Penn
Bank had been honorable and business
like.
He broke his long silence. maintained
since the closing Of the doors of thc
wrecked institution more than three
weeks ago, when he learned that Charles
A. Snyder, Of Pottsville, who was the
successful candidate against him in the
contest for the auditor geueralship of
Pennsylvania, had declared he had
openly disapproved of Amblcr's deposit
of $4O2,0 of insurance funds in the
North Penn Bank and of the with
drawal Of the money from financial in
stitutions in Pittsburgh.
Outlining his position and the course
OF action which he purposed following
in view of the allegations made against
him, Mr.. Amber said:
my first act will be to definitely
learn whether Mr.. Snyder really said
that he warned against putting the
money in that bank. cannot under
stand any motive for the auditor gen :
erals attack on me. Certainly il the
matter was discussed at the meeting of
the state revenue board by Mr.. SNYDER
and others it must have been subse-
quent to the time I resigned from the
commissionership. Furthermore. I was
not member of that board. so / could
not have heard the conversation even IL
! had been in Harrisburg at that time. I"
Neither Banking Commissioner In
fe,an. nor any other person. had ever
hinted to me that the North Penn Bank
was not safe place for the money"
Mr.. Amber declared it had always
been his belief that the bank was
thriving institution. And when asked
whether he had been told by Mr.. Lafcan
Of the trouble in the banks affairs when
the directors who were required to nav
up 500, 900 TO cover discrepancies in the
banks funds last fall, he asked For
that matter, did anybody know Of it?'' .
He declared that never during his
term in Office, or for that matter since
his resignation, had he discussed the
bank with Mr.. Snyder. Conversation
between him and Mr.. Snyder. he i'm
piled, was limited to few words, in
deed.

That declaration was made yesterday

evangelist, in sermon on lessons
from the North Penn Bank Failure"

"I'll venture to say that these men
who wrecked this bank in order to give
themselves plenty Of money for au-
tomOhles, women and gay parties,
have shortened their lives by from ten
to twenty years" he said. "A man or

some of them. as we hace read in the

from these cxcesscs. and their years
unon this earth will be shortened.
Hard in Other Ways
"Ths wrc2king of bank will be
hard upon them in other ways. After
what has happened no one will want
to associate with Mr.. Meyer and the
other bank officials who robbed the peo-
