When the directors of the Union
National and First National banks
voted to consolidate n few days ago
II gave Tulsa another bank with n
capital OF $1,000, 900 and csts blishcd q
still further proof OF Tulsa's finan-
ciai leadership In this state. Tho
Exchange National OF Tulsa already
was the largest bank In Oklahoma
ana the newly consolidated Firsi
National will rank second, with n
capital and surplus of 81 900. 600,
and resources OF about $50. .O00, 900.
Third place gacs TO oklahoma city,
although the Central National of
Tulsa is crowding It for this posi-
ton.
In addition to ranking first and
second among national banks, the
Producers state bank of Tulsa tops
the list IN the state bank class, with
resources of about 35,000,000.
Outranks .. C.--Wichita.
The consolidation OF the Union
National and First National will
leave Tulsa with but seven banks.
but these seven will outrank Okla e
homa city. with at leasti2 banks.
or Wichita. with moro than 20
banks. From these figures some
idea OF the healthy condition OF
Tulsa banks may be gained.
That there is reason for this
condition is we'll understood among
bankers throughout the country.
More big business Is tranacted In
Tulsa than perhaps any other city
OF It's size In the United States. and
larger financing is necessary. Tho
action of tho Union and First In vot-
inN to consolidate Is In line with the
policy OF banks throughout the
country in the interest OF economy
Of operation and To provide better
facilities and service for patrons.
National banks are allowed to loan
only 10 per cent OF their capital and
surplus, under ordinary conditions
TO one individual or conncern. and
Il IL this ruling that makes II neces-
sary for banks to have more capi'
tol II they expect To properly finance
the business interests of n growing
city ligc Tulsa.
Similar consultations have becn
effected during the past few month
At Wichita! Louis. Kansas Ciiy
and many oth' ci,ics. solely for the
reasons mentioned. In every In
stance there consultations have
proved OF great benefit to the re
by bankers that the two big banks
which Tulsa Will have after Janu

appreciated.

will not remember them if they are not
good. For we all know that Santa

teach the children about the wonderful
