Schricker of La Conner over 20 years, During that time I believed him to be one of the most conserv- ative men in the state, In 1909 Mr, Schricker applied to me, as presi dent of the Puget Sound National bank, for a loan of $16,000 to $20, 000, which I readily granted, Sub- sequently additional loans were made from time to time, and, after the consolidation of the Puget Sound National bank with the Be attle National bank, the gecount continued. At the time of the fail ure of the bank at La Conner I was in San Francisco, and had been there a month previous. Neither I nor any of the officials of the Se attle National bank knew of the ex- act status of the bank at La Con ner; and, as I am Informed, the fact that Mr. Sehricker had loaned a large amount of money to one firm was not known until a day or two before that bank closed ite doors, | was not aware of it until 1 returned from California some I belleve that the failure of that bank could only be attributed to excessive loan made to a lumber mill at Anacortes. “If the authorities filing com: plaint had taken the trouble to look into the facts, I doubt very much if the complaint would have been filed.” MARCONI’S EYE WILL BE O.
