Banks Prepare For Attack
What nort of order could be
made of Oregon' economy if head
officers of leading state banks
were destroyed by a nuclear at
tack on Portland?
"Business as usual' is the an
swer, with little effect upon cus
tomers vho hold checking and sav
ings accounts in a state-wide bank
ing system. According to informa
tion on file with the Federal re
nerve Banking system., Oregon's
major banks are better prepared
for emergency operations t h a 0
many institutions in the country.
Service under disaster conditions
is made possible by safe storing
of banking records, plans for al
ternate head offices and establish
ments of a succession of manage
ment, according to U.S. National
Bank Board Chairman K. C. Sum
mons vho was one of seven na
tional banking executives selected1
to serve on a special bank prepar-
edness committee for the federal
reserve system.
Due primarily to the Berlin cri
sis, the federal reserve system has
requested all commercial banks in
the country to establish adequate
preparedness plans or to reap
praise and up-dal their existing
programs, reported bammons.
Taka Own Precaution
Dunne the early stages of the
Korean conflict, several Oregon
banks with head offices in the
Portland target area went ahead
with their own precaution pro
grams. U.S. national was the first
bank in the country to adopt a
completely detailed disaster plan,
according to available information.
Sammons said a basic measure
to take is the daily duplication of
essential bank records. U.S. Na
tional, for example, can complete
ly reconstruct bank and customer
account records with microfilm
shipped out of Portland each night
and stored at a point considered
safe from nuclear destruction.
Hoseburg as well a any large
Oregon city, could be designated
to assume the duties of adminis
tering a state-wide banking oper
ation. According to plans, the as
signed branch would receive all
photographic records within a few
hours of their need. U.S. National
has instructed and trained officers
of each alternate head office
branch in the takeover process.
An automatic line of succession
to tup management positions is a
very important clement of bank
bomb precaution programs, point
ed out Sammons. Chain of com
mand letters, in sealed form, are
sent to key local and national bank
officials under stipulations of most
precaution programs.
Since 1950, U S. National has re
ceived many inquiries regarding
its program, and a number of in
stitutions have sent representa
tives to the bank to study details
nf the plan, said Sammons. In ISM,
the bank's precaution program was
featured on a national television
series presented by the National
Association of Manufacturers un
der the title of "industry on Par
ade.' A scarcity of office equipment
would be another result of a nu
clear hit on Portland banks. Bath
