.R. T. c. BACKING
IN DETROIT To
MEET CRISIS
Motor Magnate to Name Of
fiCers and Directors; Bans
Speculation

DETROIT, Feb. ~ UN.S0.
Henry Ford, with the power of
his millions, came today to the
aid Of Michigan's beleagured
banks.
He will become owner and con-
troller Of Detroit's largest two
banks, which will be established
to supplant present institutions,
and he served notice that he in
tends to run the new banks
according to his own "revo-
lutionary" ideas of banking.
The Ford banks will make no
Speculative loans" They will
he places Of safe deposit and
agencies for productive" invest
ment.
The motor magnate broke the
news last night as Michigan was
entering its third week virtually
without banking facilities.
Ford to Name Officers
Gov. William A. Comstock
closed the States financial insti-
tutions February IA, ordering an
eight-day holiday. Drastic restric-
tions in Withdrawals had been in
effect all last week.
Ford will subscribe $8,250, 900 as
the entire capital for creation of
two new banks, to be known as
the Peoples National and the
Manufacturers National.
The Peoples will supplant the
present First National and the
Manufacturers will take the place
of the present Guardian National
Bank Of Commerce. Ford will
choose officers and directors for
both.
Backed by a $78,O00,OOO r. F.
c. loan, the two new banks will
take over the liquid assets of the
old institutions and pay deposi.
tors 80 per cent at once.
May Merge Later
The remainder will be paid
later as frozen assets Of the old
banks are liquidated. Later the
new banks may be merged.
Posting Of the new capital to
be supplied by Ford was the ma
jor condition upon which the R.
F. C. had agreed last week to
grant loans for establishment Of
the banks.
According to a statement issued
from the Ford Motor Company
late last night, Ford was asked
Thursday to allow freezing" Of
some Of his deposits in the two
old banks and to accept stock in
the new institutions in return.
His reply was a definite refusal.
Failing to obtain Ford's aid, Of
ficials Of the First National and
Guardian banks strove desperately
to raise capital elsewhere.
Ford Ideas Prevail
Friday they were ready to ad-
init that without assistance from
Mr.. Ford, or some association of
him with the new banks, their
task was hopeless.
At this juncture, Henry and Ed
sci Ford made their offer to join
in the creation Of two new banks,
matching $l1,000,000 Nth that
part Of the banking experience
and conscience Of Detroit which
should declare itself in harmony
with Ford ideas Of how banks
should be managed.
Saturday the r.. F.. C. reduced
the amount it was willing to loan
from $135, 100000 to S78,000,0 900
and set the necessary capital to
$8,25O,OOO.

retary Of the Treasury Mills said

reserve deposits tied up in Detroit
are released, small banks may be
forced to remain closed indefin-
