THREE BOSTON BANKS, v
SUBJECT TO RUNS, TOOK
REFUGE IN 9O-DAYLAW

| the latter it was said that the taking
of this action was optional with the
| banks.
This morning the fremont Trust
company ady6tised that it would pay
all depositors on demand and crowd
of hundreds focked to its doors to get
their money. Sidewalks were jammed
the streets were crowded, and an at
tempt to get the people to line up
failed. Milling began in the front OF
the crowd as they were pressed to-
ward the doors and mounted police
rode through the crowd to keep it in
order, while officers on foot were lost
in the mass.
For an hour the lines were kept NOV
ing into the bank and payments were
made but the crush became so great
that the windows were closed and no
tice of suspension of payment was
given.
Vice President Simon Swig, then
made the following announcement:
''To protect the public from injury
by congregating in front of the bank,
we have decided to invoke the law, re-
quiring ninety days notice for with
drawal of savings.
'We have the money and are pre-
pared TO pay anybody and everybody
who comes along, but in order to as
sure that nobody is hurt we are TAX
ing this step.
Just "a soon as calm is restored,
we shall pay depositors as usual"
The small crowd that left business
and homes to be at the Fidelity Trust
company at the opening hour in order
to get their money from its savings
depart ment, ,net with the notice that
the ninety day requirement had been
invoked, and none was paid out this
morning. The Fidelity is one Of
chain of banks with which President
Mcknight has been identified but no
reports of protective action came from
any of the other institutions.
The statement tao Fidelity savings
depositors was:
After consultation with Joseph c,
Allen commissioner of banks, the Fl
delity Trust company has decided to
avail itself of the law which permits
ninety (90l days notice for
of deposits in our savings
"In order to allow the public susii
eient time to recover from the pre-.
vailing unrest and for the protection of
its depostors and borrowers as q
whole, the Fidelity Trust company sc-
cordingly announced that it win per
init Withdrawals in its savings depart
ment in ninety 900 days after such
notice.
I'VE are prepared TO take care of all
business in our commercial depar<lent
as usual"
AT all three of the banks which sus
pended payments in their savings de-
,aTtments, il was announced that bust |
ness in the commercial departments |
would continue as usual. Bond off |
'ials, however, said that they felt that |
he uneasiness over recent develop !
nents in the banking situation here
was largely among persons with small
savings accounts, and that there would |
be no considerable demands for CON
ierting commercial accounts into cash

Surplus Cattle List.

Another issue of the Surplus Cattle
List distributed by the agricultural
extension service of the University of
Vermont. reveals offerings of approx.
mately 500 head on the part Of the
breeders Of registered dairy cattle in
Vermont The fact that some owners
are finding il necessary to cut down
the size Of their herds on going into
winter quarters creates an excellent op-
portunity for purchasers to secure ex.
cellent stock az reasonable prices. A
large number Of cows due to freshen
in the fall and early winter are in
cluded, as well as heifers and bulls Of
good breeding.

r. G. Creviston, director of organiza

men had joined the Legion. He eP-
planned that the disparity between that
figure and the number of national dues
received represented delinquents and
nnacknowledged payments of national
dues.
1t is regarded as certain that pay

cussed in the convention. because in
the opinion of many delegates, the pres

Good health is impossible when the
kidneys are weak, Overworked or dis
eased. When they fail to filter out of
the blood the poisons and impurities
that cause sore, swollen muscles and
joints, backache or rheumatic pains,
prompt steps should be taken to give
the kidneys and bladder the help
these symptoms indicate they need.
