both hull and protection and indem-

States in any vessel.
Compensation for Mails
Under II. R. 172021 it is contem-
plated that any vessel in respect of
winch coisract for compensation
under that act was executed would
lofego any compensation for mail
other than parcel post and that COM
pensatlon which would otherwise have
accrued for such transportation would
pc turned over to the merchant marina
!und. This procedure met with oh
gections on the part of the Postofice
department, which contended that
without receiving compensation direct.

would cease to take an interest in the
carriage of mails and the efficiency Of
the service would suffer therefYon

1891, no longer practically effective

usually carry the mails, and the com
mittee feels that the slight additional
compensation which would thereb,
accrue to passenger vessels is highII
desirable In view OF the difficulty iT
maintaining under our laws American
passenger services in competition wifi
foreign services on which those laws
are not applicable.
Interstate Water Carriers
The act Of 1915 provided that com
mon carriers by water in Interstate
commerce should file with the board
thelr maximum rates, and that if ar
unfair or unreasonable rate were
charged the board could prescribe .
just and reasonable maximum rate.
Section 704 amends section 18 Of the
shipping act of 1916 so that such car.
rlers shall file with the board thei,
actual rates, fares and charges. These
rates and charges can not be altered
except with the approval of the board
and after fifteen days notice in the
case of an increase and five davs
notice in the case of reduction. Ir
case the board disapproves any rate
or charge on the ground that; ii i
unjust or unreasonable it may pre-,
scribe reasonable rate or .. maxi.

this the procedure of the interstate
commerce act is followed, and the

"But, OF course, this does not preve nj
one from making certain rules about
what the premises Of the Judgment
may reasonably contain, and think
that on this point it may be briefly
answered that the premises ought to
explain the connection of the facts in

that the premises, apparently, do not

REDUCE AMERICAN QUARTERS
UNLESS BANK IS REOPENED
and Fixtures Must Be Disposed of by
Last of October Unless Bank Resumes
Operations, Judge Leslie Rules.

the premises now held by him and
take steps to dispose of the furniture
and fixtures and secure less expensive
quarters for the purpose Of conducting
the affairs of the said bank"
GRAY issued this statement follow
ing receipt of the court order:
'.As | have heretofore stated. the
stockholders practically have aban-
doned all efforts to reorganize. If
the unsigned depositors, however, will
voluntarily sign up Immediately, the
stockholders will put in the cash of
their full assessment of 100 per cent
and recapitalize the bank, otherwise
at the end of this month all further
effort necessarily must be abandoned.
This is made necessary by a no
tice from the court stating that on ac-
count of some ~depositOrs failing to
sign, the court does not deem it wise
to hold the bank rooms and furniture
intact longer. In this the court is en-
tirely correct. If the bank does not
reopen, then the expense of the rent
for the banking rooms should be cut
out and the furniture sold. When
this is done, however, all hope and eff
fort to reopen will be entirely and
forever gone.
Court Has Been Patient
Judge Leslie has been very patient
in this matter. He has expressed
himself as hopeful that the bank might
reopen in order that the depositors
might be saved from unnecessary and
further loss, and has been willing to
give US all the time necessary so long
as there was reasonable hope of re-
opening. lie now says, however, that
unless there is reasonable assurance
before the end of this month hat the
bank can reopen, the bank rooms will
be vacated and the furniture ordered
sold.
The stockholders have practically
abandoned their efforts to r~eorganize,
but Hugh NJ. Jones and his deposit
ors' committee still are working. If
they turn in the reorganization agree
ments of the unsigned depOsitors with
in the next 10 days or two weeks, the
bank will reopen, otherwise at the end
of the month the court will order the
bank furniture sold
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1921-current, 1922-10-08

BY issuing an order saying that he
will require the receiver of the Amer
lean Bank Il Trust company to dispose
of the banks furniture and fixtures
and to occupy less expensive quarters
on November l unless the bank is re-
opened by that date, District Judge
J.. b. Leslie virtually designated the
remaining days of October as the final
period during which plans to re-es-
tablish the concern can be carried on,
in the opinion of A. II. Gray, chair
man of the stockholders reorganiza-
ton committee. Once the banking
rooms are vacated and the furniture
sold, any effort to reopen the bank
will be hopeless, Gray declared Sat
urday following issuance of Judge
Leslie's order.
In the order, the court relates that
the receiver has been permitted to Oc-
cupy the former banking quarters be-
cause of the ACCESSIBILITY of having the
equipment and location available in the
event of reopening, but that the ex-
pense of retaining this banking room
will be eliminated on November / if
the reorganization is not effected by
that date. Judge Leslie's order, ad-
dressed to Gray, reads:
Kent costs Si9U monthly
The receiver in charge of the
premises occupied by the American
Bank Il Trust company at its closing
has held the same and the furniture
and fixtures belonging to the bank in
tact. at a monthly rental of $3.50, up
to this time. This has been permit
ted with the view that, in the event
a reorganization should be effected,
the bank might have a place and the
necessary accessories to begin opera
tons with the least expense. This
course has been pursued at the earnest
request of your committee and many
others concerned.
But it seems that the requisite
number of ~depositors of the bank are
not inclined to acquiesce in the plan
of the reorganization proposed, and l
desire hereby to advise you that I'M
less there is manifested n reasonable
assurance of reorganization before the
expiration of this month (October), /
shall direct the receiver to surrender
