Passing of Financial Storm
Is Felt in East and Will Be
Euident Here Late This Year

"All financial storms start in the
eastern centers," said Z. c. Dings to-
day, "and these storms spread slowly
but none the less surely to every nook
and corner Of the country. And when
the storm begins to recede, when 1t
loses its power, when the sky begins
to clear, activity again starts at the
point of beginning-the eastern CEN
ters-and slowly the waves of finan'
cial peace reach out over the whole
face of the country.
THAT is just what we are passing
through now" continued Mr.. Dings.

This clearing of the financial sky
which is already under way in the
east should reach US by the latter
part of this year or by the first OF
1928"
Mr.. Dings is president of the Ameri'
can National Bank of this city. ne Is
also treasurer OF the North Ameri.
