A—16 sexxnn FINANCIAL. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1936. RECEIVERS FINISH TRANSACTIONS ON THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE WORK IN 21 BANK Six Institutions Pay Off Bet- ter Than 100 Per Cent in August. BY EDWARD C. STONE. Controller of the Currency J. F. T. ©'Connor has just announced liqui- dation of 21 bark receiverships dur- ing August, six of the institutions paying off better than 100 per cent, two others 90 per cent, two from 80 to 90, and seven from 70 to 80 per cent. The First National Bank, New Cumberland, W. Va., is the only one liquidated in the fifth Federal Re- serve district during the month, in this case the final settlement being far from 100 per cent. The total disbursements of the six banks which returned more than 100 per cent to all creditors amounted to $1,361,562. The August record of 21 receiverships liquidated makes a total of 441 receiverships finally closed or restored to solvency since the Nation- wide bank holiday in March, 1933. Total disbursements, including off- sets allowed depositors and other ereditors, exclusive of 42 banks re- stored to solvency, aggregated $122,- 766,970, or an average return of more than 74 per cent of total liabilities, while unsecured depositors received dividends amounting to 58.98 per cent of their claims, the controller's report shows. Vass Starts for Convention. George O. Vass, vice president and eashier of the Riggs National Bank, will leave Washington tonight for the A. B. A. convention at San Fran- cisco, at the same time combining the trip with his annual vacation. He plans to go through the Ca- nadian Rockies, stopping at all points of interest and including a steamer trip down to the coast to 'Fresco. A member of the Executive Coun- cil of A. B. A, Mr, Vass has also George 0. V done much com- mittee work for the association, serv- ice on the code committee and the committee on banking studies being two of the most important. He is the third Washington banker to start for the West Coast meeting. Seaboard Dividend Declared. The board of directors of the Sea- board Finance Corp., headquarters in the Southern Building, today declared the regular quarterly dividend of 50 | cents per share on the preferred stock. This dividend is payable Sep- tember 30 to stock of record Septem- ber 15. The National Stationers Association reported today that business in Wash- ington, Maryland and Virginia in July was 27.38 per cent better than in the same montn last year. This was one of the best records made in any part of the country. Eliot H. Thomson, Washington Yoan & Trust Co., will represent the District Bankers' Association at the convention at the National Adver- tisers Association at Nashville, the sessions opening on September 14. He is chairman of the Advertising Com- mittee of the local association. The eonvention devotes its time largely to financial advertising. PFrank M. Perley, trust investment officer of the American Security & Trust Co. sailed today on the S. 8. Manhattan for a short trip to Eu- yope. He is visiting England, Hol- land, Belgium and France and going | to visit a number of the banks in| London and Paris as well as the stock | exchanges in these two cities. Unemployment Gains Noted. Conditions in employment in the fifth Federal Reserve district appear to have improved further during Au- gust. Opening of tobacco markets, says the Reserve Bank of Richmond, in South Carolina and border markets in North Carolina on August 13 gave work to many tobacco handlers at warehouses, and tobacco manufactur- ing plants in the district set new rec- ords for output in July. Textile mills increased operating time, thereby adding to their em- ployes or to pay rolls of those already at work. Construction work provided for by permits issued in July was double the amount of work provided for in July last year, and contracts actually awarded in July were also very much above those awarded at the same time last year. Coal production in July was in larger amount than in most years at this season. On the whole, practically every activity in the district which employs labor has recently increased operations. Sales and Collections Climb. According to a survey just com- pleted by the National Association of Credit Men and the Commerce De- partment, total net sales of 568 manu- facturers throughout the country reg- istered an increase of about’ 33 per cent in July, 1936, from July, 1935, &nd 9 per cent over June of this year. Total sales increased in July, 1936, over the same month last year for all of 15 industry groups shown in the report. The increases ranged from 9.7 per cent for leather and its prod- ucts to 72 per cent for iron and steel and their products. Increases in July, 1936, sales over July, 1935, for stone, clay and glass products and motor vehicle parts also were high, each ex- ceeding 50 per cent. Percentages of collections on ac- counts receivable submitted by 517 manufacturers were higher for July, 1936, than for July a year ago but slightly under June of this year. Dur- ing July, this year, the manufacturers Feporting collected 81 per cent of their accounts receivable outstanding on the first of that month, as compared with 82 per cent collected during July last year, and 77.8 per cent collected during June of this year. The highest collection percentages twere reported by the meat packing industry, the figures for each of the three months covered exceeding 100 per cent, indicating that customers of the reporting meat packers took less than 30 deys on the average to pay for their purchases.
