HARD YEAR FOR BANKS.
52S Institutions Closed in 1921-163
Reopen or Settle.

Reopen or settle.
WASHINGTON, April S.-During
the calendar year 1921 a total of 52S
state and private banks in the country
were closed, according to statement
issued yesterday by Comptroller of the
Currency Crissinger, summarizing bank
failures for the year. However, he
added. 1853 of these banks were able to
reopen or liquidate their liabilities.
The liability of the other 800 banks,
he reported. aggregated approximately
$96,0O0,0OO, making the average per
bank about 100000.
The southern division, Mr.. Crissenger
declared. was the most seriously affected
in respect to the number of bank fail
ures and the volume of liabilities, to-
falling $27.000,000 in that section.
There were only five bank failures in
the eastern states with liabilities of
$4,000. 900. Mr.. Crissenger said, and
four in the New England states, whose
liabilities were SIT 100000.
The year 1921, Mr.. Crissinger said,
was the third most disastrous year with
respect to the number of failures of ma
tional banks in the history of the ma
tional banking system, there being 81
national bank failures with liabilities of
S23. 677 1867. The most disastrous year
in this respect was 1898, when 90 fail
ures occurred, and the next was 1897,
when there were 80 failures.
There were. he explained, 40 receiv-
erships in 1921, but in three cases the
banks were restored to solvency and au-
thOriZed TO resume business.
