OT FIGHT LOOMS
Oil BANK CHARTER
Salem',' May 4- I the state bank
ing board upholds the decision of
Will II. Bennett, state, superinten
dent of banks. In refusing to grant
a charter to the proposed Citizens',
bank at The Dalles, mandamus pro
ceedings will be instituted to com
pel the Issuanceof the; charter, and
the case will be fought to the high
est courtj'if necessary. ;
This was the statement - made by
George Joseph, Portland attorney, rep
resenting the stockholders of the pro
posed new bank at a hearing before the
state banking board, to which tbe appli
cation for a charter has been appealed
after Bennelt had refused to grant one.
APPEAL IS ADVISED
The appeal was taken under advise
ment ,by the state board, 'consisting of
Governor Olcolt and State Treasurer
Hoff. A decision will be rendered before
May 10. it was staled.
" Joseph characterized Bennett's refusal
to--comply with the request for charter
as an arbitrary exercise of legislative
power not contemplated under the state
law, and! which the legislature could not
delegate to an official.
: Bennett,' in . explaining his . position,
characterized the organisation of the
new bask the fourth for The Dalles
as prompted by spite work and Jealousy
. and not justified by business conditions.
SAYS RULISG IS INFLUENCED
Joseph, taking exception to Bennett's
stand, declared that the state superin
tendent ! of banks 'had evidently been
Influenced" in .his decision, and insisted
that his position displayed partiality to
the Portland men who are backing the
, third bank now 'opening fori business in
The Dalles. Tbe demand for the Citi
zens bank, he explained, was simply a
spontaneous uprising on the part of the
people of The Dalles who "would not
stand" for any arbitrary dismissal of
their request for, a -state charter.
Stockholders of the proposed new bank
attending the hearing Tuesday were P. J.
Stadleman, II. L. Kuck, Dr. John A.
Reuter, Thomas Brogan, John A. Helm
rick. R. C. Bradshaw, Garfield Morre
and Dr. !B. C. dinger. I

ferees," reads the message received by
the Oregon State Chamber f Commerce.
"Your! suggestion comes too late to be
considered In connection with that legist
lation. In discussion of amendment, the
Idea obtained that this work would sup
ply experience for the: government agen
cies, and there is much, opposition here
to any -effort to place work of patrol in
