PROSPERITY PLAN
WORKS IN TOLEDO
Set-up Devised to Make Good
All Deposits in Four Big
Banks Which Closed.

BY the Associated Press.
TOLEDO, Ohio, November 2s.~-With-
out waiting for q return of Nation wide
prosperity to give it a helping boost
this city. hard hit by series Of large
bank failures, is pulling itself out Of the
mire "by its bo0t-straps' =
Although approximately 800, 900 600
was tied up in the four big banks
which closed several months ago Toledo
has kept the wheels of commerce run
ming steadily and now at last things
are getting better.
Factories are working faster and
longer, retail trade is picking up, people
on the streets are smiling again, and
best OF all-the closed banks are expect
ing to pay a hundred cents on the
dollar. The initial dividends OF is to
80 per cent are scheduled to be paid
December Is.
Ingenious Scheme Devised.
The four large banks which closed,
and their approximate deposits, were:
Ohio Savings e. Trust Co, $50, 900, 900 /,
Commercial Savings Bank g. Trust Co,
$l7,00000O; Security Home Trust Co,
SIC, 900, 600, and the Commerce Guar
dian Trust g. Savings Bank, $4,000 900.
An ingenious scheme was devised to
cope with the problems of these closed
institutions. Instead of selling their
assets at "distreSs-sal prices. special
financial machinery is being set up to
give the depositors all the ready cash
possible, yet save them from the losses
of hasty liquidation.
Under the salvaging plan, approved
by the State banking department, a
new bank and three holding COM
panies are being organized to take over
the Ohio, the Commercial and the
Security Home December IS.
Fourth TO Be ReOrganized.
All available cash and prime Sc
curities are to be transferred that day
to the new bank and credited pro-rata
to the old despositOrs. The initial
credit from the old banks will average
20 per cent. The rest of the assets
will be deposited separately with the
holding companies.
The new bank is to be capitalized at
not less than $4,000, 900, of which half
is to come voluntarily from the de-
positors themselves. The fourth bank,
the Commerce. Guardian, viii be re-
organized under a new name, indie

DEPUTIES MAKE
new EFFORT TO
LOCATE We'll

Imperial Valleys desert today
holds the secret of another possibly
tragic mystery, the second this year
to engage the attention of the
sheriff's office.
Undersheriff Rodney Clarke and
Fred Elliott returned to Ei Centre
late last night to report they found
no trace of George We'll, 55-year-
old Coyote Wells homesteader miss
ing from a camp near the mouth OF
Painted Gorge since Monday morn
ing.
Clarke left this morning for Wells
homestead shack near Coyote Wells
to inspect the belongings of the old
man. He expressed the opinion be-
fore leaving that We'll had no
chance to reach the highway, and
has disappeared on the desert.
J The spot where We'll and his
friend, w. I. Taylor, were camped
was Is miles from the highway
The undersheriff today gave the
first accurate account of the parts
played by Taylor and We'll prior to
the disappearance. Numerous ru-
mors have been circulated regard
ing the manner of Wells disap-
pearance.
Clarke said We'll was overcome
by the heat while walking with
Taylor about four miles from the
camp. Taylor left We'll in the
shade of a cliff, and started back
to camp for water About mile
from the camp he, too, was over
come by the heat.
1t was only by coincidence two
friends of Taylor had decided TO
visit him at the camp that morn
ing. Arriving there, they did not
find him, and started up Painted
Gorge in search of him. They found
Taylor where he had collapsed.
When Taylor had been revived he
told his friends where he left We'll.
and the three started in search of
him. Not finding We'll. they came
to Ell Centre to seek aid from the
sheriffs office.
Taylor is still suffering from the
effects of his desert experience.
