Bank Adds New
Finance Service
A "Doctor-Patient Finance Ser
vice" to provide money for prompt
payment of doctor and dentist bills,
with convenient monthly payment
over a year's period, is being inaug
urated this week by the Heppner
branch of the First National Bank
of Portland, it is announced by B.
C. Pinckney, manager.
"Physicians and dentists have to
pay their bills like anyone else,"
Mr. Pinckney said, "but too fre
quently they are the first to be
called and the last to be paid.
"We feel that no group of persons
is more worthy of our help and co
operation than these men upon
whom we depend for the health of
our communities. This new plan
that we are announcing offers the
patient the opportunity to pay his
doctor bills in convenient monthly
payments over a year's time. At
the same time he establishes credit
with the First National Bank for
such purposes as buying an auto
mobile, or financing the buying,
building or modernizing of his
home. It, of course, also makes it
possible for the doctor to receive
prompt payment for his servises."
