FOUR BANKS CLOSE

"Not Shut as Failures Says
Bank Examiner, "May Be

BISMARCK, n. D.. November CO.
Directors OF the Beach State Bank of
Beach late yesterday informed o. E.
Lofthus. state bank examiner, that they
had closed the bank This is the fourth
bank to be closed in North Dakota
this week. A fifth bank late yester-
day sent word to Mr. Lofthus that il
had decided to close.
Directors of the Farmers State Rank
OF Greene. N. D., notified Lofthus that
they would close their institution and
ask for the appointment of a receiver
Expected withdrawal Of public funds
deposited was given as the reason BY
the board of directors of the Farmers
State Bank. Greene is near Tolley. in
Renville county, where a bank was
closed several days ago.
Failure of farmers to meet notes
heid by the banks is one of the prin.
clpal reasons for Suspending opera
tions. Mr.. Lofthus said. Holding OF
wheat for higher prices and poor
crops in some sections also are re.
sponsible, it is said.
John Hagan. state commissioner o,
agri riculture and labor, declared tha,
In his opinion the federal reserv,
| bank could adjust conditions by ex.
tending more credit. Mr.. Hagan SAID
farmers are holding for higher prices
The closed banks. according to Mr.
lsofthus. are not closed as failures
and may be reopened later"
