run ON BANK

BALTIMORE, Dec. IA mild
run on the Park Bank developed
here today for no better reason, 1t
seems, than that the bank carried
the majority of Christmas Saw

The bank is in the heart Of the
shopping district. Women chose
it for their Christmas savings be-
cause Of the convenient location.
Then, because a great number
Of women were seen cashing
checks, a rumor spread that de-
poSitors were flocking in to with
draw their money. The original
crowd were just taking their regu.
lar Christmas savings, it was said,
but today about 1000 persons
staged the run.
Webster Bell, president, issued
a statement saying that the in
stitution is perfectly sound, that
there is $4,000, 900 on hand for
any who are frightened, but that
there is no danger whatever Of the
bank closing.
