COUNTY is
PAID $4,000 IN
BOND INTEREST

In 1928 the Nogales National Bank
pledged some bonds, including city
sewage and water works bonds,
Pima county bonds and Salt River
Valley Users Association bonds, to
secure deposit of about $4,000
of county money.
The pledge was made at time
when the bank had no authority to
do such a thing and in 1880 Con-
gress passed an act authorizing such
pledges.
This pledge of securities made the
county secured creditor and the
legality of the pledge was denied by
the receiver under orders from the
Comptroller's office.
The county sued for about $12,-
900 to recover the balance of the
deposit, and interest on it, as a
secured creditor The federal dis
trict court at Tucson allowed them
about $4,000 as a preferred creditor
but the receiver retained the in
terest amounting to about $4,000.
The case went to the Circuit
Court of Appeals at San Francisco
and was affirmed when the supreme
court of the United States decided
on December 18th a somewhat
similar case from Florida.
On Thursday of this week the re-
ceiver paid the county an amount
slightly under $4,000 and received
the bonds that the county had been
holding.
Attorney S. D. Monahan handled
the case for the receiver and At
torney James v. Robins represented
the county.
