Adopted by Co-Ops
at Meeting Monday

More than 100 stockholders OF the
Scenic City Cooperative Oil company

of dividends until the financial crisis
has passed and to put the company on
a strictly cash basis and reelected
John Poncin and F. E. Croker direct
ors of the board at the annual meet
ing at the city hall Monday.
The vote on establishing a cash
basis followed the report Of A. M.
Dennistoun, secretary, which showed
greatly increased accounts receivable.
"Pay-as-you-go or don't CO." Mr.. Den
nistoun told the group. The vote fav-
ored his recommendation by large
majority.
Dividends, which will be paid in
merchandise this year instead of cash
will not be issued to stockholders un-
til the board decides to do so, it was
voted. The directors recently decided
upon a merchandise dividend because

non-stockholders will have $1,032 ad-

President to Ask DictatOrial
Power Until System Can
be Recognized
KOLBETS ISSUE DUEBILLS
Proclamation of Governor Fol-
lowed by Roosevelt Order;
May Issue Scrip

Faced with a banking crisis which
Saturday caused the governors of
most states to declare banking holi-
days and was followed Sunday by a
proclamation by the new president
sustaining their action, Franklin D.
Roosevelt is expected to ask for con-
troll of the banking structure until the
bank system can be reorganized in
his message to the new congress
meeting for special session today.
A new proclamation to this effect
is expected today and it may extend
the holiday which was to end tonight,
or prescribe restrictions under which
banks may open.
Plans for issuing scrip backed by
bank deposits but to be used in lieu
of currency were reported abandoned
at Washington Wednesday except in
some states where this action would
be necessary. Governor Floyd B. Oh
son Immediately asked for permission
to use the plan in Minnesota.

shaken the confidence of depositors
and caused bank runs. The situation
is said to have been FASTENED by dis
closures of irregularities in the con-
duct of the affairs of banks in fnan-
cial centers.
Franklin D. Roosevelt made pro-
clamation Sunday night, closing the
few banks which remained open after
Saturdays holiday and called spe-
cial session of congress to take action.
His proclamation was followed in Min
nesota by a joint session of the house
and senate at which Governor Floyd
B. Dion asked that the group men,
orialize congress to take steps to
guarantee bank deposits. The sug-
gestion was heartily applauded.
In Redwood Falls, new form of
scrip money appeared, backed by the
Kolbet Dairy company and used by
them to pay farmers for cream. It
may be used by the store to buy milk
from the company or may be held un-
til the cream being marketed can be
sold, when it will be redeemed for
cash. 1t is in four denominations,
ten cents, Is cents, SO cents and one
dollar and is clearly marked "emer-
gency money"
A surprising amount of currency is
accommodating in some business places,
indicating the great amount that has
been in hiding.
The Citizens State bank here clos
ed soon after the report had been con-
firmed by telephone calls and L. r.
Ewart, vice president, issued the fol-
lowing statement: upon mandatory
orders of the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,
this bank as well as other banks of
the state, will not be open until furth-
