INDUSTRIAL TRUST CO.
IN FINE NEW QUARTERS
Began Business Today In Its Own
Ten-story Building at Tenth
and ShipIey Streets.

The Industrial Trust Co. began bust
ness today il its new 1o-story build
ing at the southwest corner Of Tenth
and Shipley streets. The new quar-
| ters were thrown open for public in
spection on Saturday night. Many per
sons took advantage of the opportunity
and expressed their admiration.
The new building is of latest con-
struction, fireproof throughout. Archi-
tecturally. il is a modern application OF
Italian Renaissance, embodied in In
diano limestone. tapestry brick and
colored terra-cotta, forming one OF the
most imposing office buildings in the
city. 1t will furnish commodious facili-
ties for the trust company, and 81
private offices in addition. Entrances
are provided on both Shipley and Tenth
streets. Elevators convey passengers
TO upper floors.
For it's own use the Industrial Trust
Co. has reserved the basement, first and
mezzanine floors. The banking quar-
ters consist of general banking depart
ments on the first floor. safe deposit
department and service rooms in the
basement. and executive offices on the
'Inezzanine floor.
The vault provides space for the safe
deposit box department and a separate
section for the security chests for the
collateral of the bank. An electrical
and mechanical protective system has
been installed which sounds an alarm
the instant an attack is made on the
door. walls, floor or ceiling of the vault
by tools. explosives or flame. This pro-
tective system also has been extended
70 the banking quarters to provide
against daylight attack.
Among the prospective tenants of the
offices in the new building are Judge
Daniel o. Hastings. who has taken an
entire floor for his own law offices and
those Of his associates, and J. Ernest
Smith, attorney. Then the II. ID. Watts
Company, which constructed the new
Industrial Trust Building and has con-
tract for erection of the 5000. 600 high
school at laurel, has engaged a suite
of rooms. Numerous other applications
for office space have been made to Car
rol w Griffith, who has the letting ont
OF the building in charge. The Indus
trial Trust Co. has. in six years. ex-
panded from small office at 923 Mar
ket street to the handsome ten-story
100000 office building of its own.
Another evidence of the remarkable
growth of this institution is shown I'm
the total loans. which increased from
$4,000 in 1914 to 1864 900 in 1920.

PROFESSION OF BOND

BY new STATE LAW
HaIIanan Calls Attention To
Force Of Measure.

Professional bond giving was scor
ed by State Tax Commissioner Wal
ter S. Hallanan Saturday in a state
ment in which he called attention
. to the new law prohibiting this
practice. Commissioner Hallanan
said:
"One of the most serious obstac-
les in prohibition enforcement has
been the vicious practice OF profess
sional bond giving, which has made
it possible for any violator of the
law to be released on bond very
promptly after his arrest through
the influence Of some person engag-
ed in professional bond giving. Par
ticularly in Kanawha county has
thise nrae tice' been very extensive
