If so inclined, he could have had many to speak for him before the committee. He considered it improper FRANKLIN 8. JEROME™ The First National bank, of which Franklin S.

I cannot figure out this evening why the Thames Loan and Trust company should not be able to pay 100 cents on a dollar. It will probably mean that the deposits will be tied up for a short time, but there is no reason to be uneasy or at all frightened. I cannot see why every- thing should not come out ali right. It was considered the course of pro- tection to close the bank. I have been over all the figures and cannot why every depositor will not get e: cent. Our efforts have been to every depositor paid in full, and to that end we are at work, and from the | developments none of them have rea- son to be uneasy or anxious. I think everything has happened that could have an effect upon the institution, The people should be cool, calm and quiet, allowing us to simply operate the bank as we are for the interest of the people. | Thames Loan Statemént and Officers.
