Dr. James Wlthycombe, In telling or his aspirations, said; "I am critl Clued far talking out what J think.

By this merger the commercial and savings accounts of the 'Security- Sav Ings A Trust Co. will be : consolidated ' with those of the First NaUonal, and thereafter the Security.: Savings & Trust CO.. will be continued as a trusr company only, doing a trust business , ,, strictly, p ' '-"'.v " The capitalization of the First Na ttonal bank will be Increased from 1.500,000 to $2,600,000. , t .

Th deposits of the consolidated banks will be over $18,000,000. This amount is greater than the deposits of any other bank in the Pacific northwest. Upon the consolidation, th First National will make the first great change in its method of doing business in that it will maintain a savings department ana pay interest oa its deposits. The- remodelling of the first two floors of the Corbett building to accom modate the businesses of the consoli dated banks, pending the construction or the new building, is near comple tion. The main banking room, now occupied by the Security Savings Trust company, will be accupied by the First National, together with a large part of the second floor, where th bookkeeping department, and interior clearing house will be installed. The offices of the Security Savings & Trust company will be on the first floor of the Goodnough building, just south of the Corbett building, - and accessible directly from Fifth street or through the main - banking room of the First National. ' - The removal, of th ..First .NaUonal from its present quarters at th south- i east corner of .First and Washington ; atreets, where It has been located since 1883. marks tb passing of a landmark. closely associated with th Portland of days gonev the occupancy of the tem porary quarters at Fifth and Morrison Streets is analogous to - the business transition . which the city ia undergo ing today;, the construction of a "costly banking home, in the uptown business district is indicative of " th, futur growth of the city which it anticipates. The capitalisation of the First Na tional, which, by the way, is Portland's oldest national bankv has ever kept apace with the city's development. In 1868 it was $100,000; today it is being increased ' to $2.800,000 this commentary on the growth of the city Is significant.' ' ' In discussing the plans for the new building. Mr. Mills said this morning: The new home of the First National bank will be a bank building exclusive ly. - It will be one story high, contain ing within two or- thre meszanin floors. In addition to the: main, floor. Plans haven't progressed to the" extent that we can announce the material de tails, however, the exterior will un doubtedly b of stone, with great col umns of classic design supporting a broad eaved roof. " In "planning it we will follow the most modern and ap proved designs for banking structures. In -the construction of this buuaing which will cost between $300,000 and $400,000, we feel that the city has ar rived at that point in its development where it Is deserving of an exclusive bank building. Our new building wUl house the commercial and savings-departments of the First Nationsl bank and the Security Savings & Trust com pany ana will e reaay- lor occupancy sometime between Ju'r 15, 1916 and January 1. 1916."

C E. S. Wood had delivered a gruelling verbal rebuke in Judge Cleeton's court on the occasion of a foreclosure suit brought against Mrs. O. E. Plogstra. - ' "I am not a moneylender," said Mr. Schiewe, today. "All I have Is what I earn, and I cannot be called a Shylock and an inhuman shark. I loan out -my savings to help support my family, which is large.-1 do not charge broker age fees, and all I ask Is the legitimate Interest that should be paid on every Investment." ; . ; Mr. Schiewe declares the Plogstras should be able to pay interest and principal on their mortgage, because. he says. Mr. Plogstra earns good money, and has done so for years. He says he delayed ' from January 1 to May ip to file foreclosure proceedings, instructing his attorney, Ben Irwin, not to go into court until he saw there was no chance that the money would be paid. Mr. Schiewe says ha has lived In Portland 24 years, and has worked hard all that time, managing to care for his family of nine children, and lay a little by. His chief objection to the disposition - of the ' suit . is ' Colonel Wood's reference to him In such vigor ous . terras and accusing him - of op pressing the poor with heavy f ees. ! 111,1 ' i .
