I their money in the bank instead of demanding it immediately as they were doing when the closing order was made. The plan offered depositors in Pendleton is that those having less than $150 be allowed to take all of it when the bank reopens. Those having larger sums would be restricted from withdrawing it all for two years, but any money deposited after the reopening would always be subject to immediate withdrawal Some such an arrangement is proposed for The Dalles bank. There may be those who will hesitate, but had they the exper ience with bank liquidations we of Sherman county have had their hesitation would be short. With the present prices for agricultural commodities their money might be tied up in an institution under liquidation for two or three years without any of it being returned and in the meantime the farmers and producers are hampered by lack of funds and lack of credit facilities. We wish some all wise director had invented ihe moratorium method and reopening plan with limited withdrawals a year or so ago so that we could have taken advantage of it. Instead we have a bank closed for thirteen months and no one, with big or little ac count, has received anything out of it. : ' --------o-------- ’ — Uncertainty is doing its part in keeping the price of commod ities low.
