the hard coal fields. Various esti-
mates have been made OF the supply
of coal above ground. These range
from a tonnage sufficient to supply
all consumers from one to six

Five hundred dollars increased an

to +. G.. Orr, its president. This
would mean an annual increase in

Mr.. Orr suggests that this can be
done by placing fifty ewes with each

by building up the quality of the

GUARANTY fund BOARD PAYS
OUT $500,O00 TO CREDITORS
OF INSOLVENT STATE BANKS
Claims Which Payments Have Been Made to Date Total
1880; All Claims Less Than SIP Are Settled

Payments to creditors of the state
guaranty fund have passed the half
million dollar mark with the issu-
ance Of large number of checks by
the state guaranty fund commission
The guaranty fund. which is re-
plcnished almost wholly from the tax
on solvent banks, is paying the cred
itors of the banks which failed in
North Dakota in recent years.
Claims on which payments have
been made total 1880, that number
of checks having been issued by the
commission. All claims of less than
sl2 have been paid in full in order
to wipe them off the books of the
commission and save accounting The
number of these small claims is in
excess of 1000, F. W. Cathro, exec
utive officer of the fund commission,
said. The actual total of payments
to date is O5,305.72.
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1925-09-24

First payments to creditors of the
fund were made December IL last
and checks have been issued almost
continuously since that time at the
rate of about 40 a day.
Assessments against solvent banks
are made on the basis of one fourth
of one per cent of the total deposits
of each bank which is a member of
the fund
In all cases except those small
claims which were paid in full the
initial checks we're for 10 per cent of
the total claim against the insolvent
bank. AS soon as initial payments
are made on the remaining claims a
second dividend will be issued when
the money is sufficient to warrant it.
Numerous claims which may be made
against the fund still are pending
before the commission, Judge C. j
Fisk, referee of contested claims.
