 The new officers of the bank called in the firm of Lyman X Place, arr chitects of Tucson, who had been do- Ing some of the larger and more pre- tentious buildings in the southern part of the state, to design and con- struct for them the banking building which would fit their needs for the future years and which would give the people of the Salt River valley every possible banking convenience. The result is the banking rooms. opened today after about ten months construction work, and the officers and directors of the bank are we'll pleased and feel that in opening this building for the public that they have something to show that is worth sec ing.
 The banking rooms which is prob ably twice as large as any banking room formerly in Phoenix, is finished in Taverneye marble. The low fix ture made of marble, plate glass and bronze is a feature of the room. The oper. teller wickets permit of inti- mate dealings that are different from dealing with man in a cage and add greatly to the general appear ance of the room.
 The endorsing desks are of marble and plate glass. permitting looking through to the floor, and this feat ure, while apparently small and un- important. has been found tn save

much losing of papers and checks. There are a thousand and one of these kind Of conveniences in the new banking rooms which will be explaied by the architect. Mir. Ly- man, and the officers at the for mai opening.
 The vaults are all in the basement, electrically protected by a device that has absolutely baffled robberies. It is protected with the burglar pro- tection system, and there is no case on record where vaults protected by this system have been successfully attacked.
 One of the features of the building which will be much appreciated by the people of the Salt River valley Is the cooling system. This is ar- ranged to turn washed air into the banking rooms at the rate of 30,- 900 cubic feet per minute and entire- ly change the air every three min utes. During a test yesterday the temperature outdoors was 9S de- grees, while in the center of the banking room it was maintained at 7S.
 All the decorations in the newly remodelled quarters were installed by the Kirchefer company. which has decorated all the banks and a great number of the finest hotels and res- idences in the city.

zona was one of the early banks of the valley. In the late 70s" Kale and Lewis ran a branch bank of the Bank of Prescott on Washington street where the Chocolate Shop now stands. In 1881 they ceased to be connected with the Prescott bank and ran under the fir mname of Kale and Lewis, bankers. This was the real start of the National Bank Of Arizona. for in 1886 the bank became nationalized with M. W. kale as president. Sol Lewis as vice presi- dent, and George Hoadley as cash fer. Thus the National Bank of Ari- zona is really 40 years old this year.
 The first few years of the bank s history were not marked by rapid1ty in growth. for after Is years of oper- ation the total deposits ran $90,216, as compared with almost $4.000,0O0, today. but the bank grew consistently with the valley. In 1896 the bank was reorganized as Kales sold his interest to Emil Gang. who is still chairman of the board of directors, was made president. Associated with MT. Gang was Charles Goldman as vice president and Simon Oberfelder as cashier
 It was during the regime of these officers and through the personality and energy of Simon Oberfeider that the bank grew by leaps and bounds, until it practically outgrew the abil- ity of t1ese men to take care of it. This. with the i'll health of MT. Ober- fielder, caused a change when Charles F. Solomon and associates took over the control of the bank in January, 1920. with the following officers and directors: Charles F. Solomon, pres ident: Leo Goldman, vice president; E. W. Clayton. vice president and cashier; J. J. Sweeney. S. c. Gang. l.. H. Rhuart, C. T. Washburn and J. w. Leech, assistant cashiers. The directorate consisted of Emil Gait.

relief economically.
1t consists of Herbert Hoover, chair
man, and Franklin K. Lane, treas
