Nil IIMiirnam-o In ltooult Tlinl there will bo no serloug busi ness disturbance In tlio rommnnlty Is certain, for tlio effects of the closing had been llcniinted for sometime. It lin,, been known tlmt tlio bank was having n hard struggle nnd tlili broiiitlit hbmtt many readjustments ro that aside from tlio Inconvenience to tlio who lind money on deposit. tlia closing will inn's almost unnotlc cd. Thn mast reassuring thing about tlio rloslnR U lha appointment of 0 i; Vnllcn nt receiver. Ho was ap pointed thl morning by Superinten dent of Hanks, Hramwcll, when he annnunrcd to that official that he wns unablo to longer keep the Instil ntlwi open. Mr. Wallet never gave up hopa until closing time josterdsy. When ho opened the bank this morn ing It was with tlio expectation that financial nsilslaneo that had been ar ranged for would come In ttmo to keop things going, but he ni disap pointed, althouRh shortly after tlio iti-ura were ckscd the anticipated help rama, but too lato to enable a resumption of business. That tlicro wilt be no effort made to reopen the Institution and that It Will bo liquidated wag tho statement made by Mr. Walk's hit morning. Till, carries with It the assurance that tho liquidation will bo rarrled through In a manner that will not disturb business conditions, which In & literal tenso meant that he does not intend to forro the collection bt note, to a point whera It will distress the borrower. Yet, at-the tarns time, suf flrlont expedition will bo used to In sure tho payment to the depositors of their money within a reasonable time, i Ollii'r JmiuVk arc Strong Another cheering feature of the af fair It the difference existing In the city now, at eomparrd with last year. Then tho closing tamo at tometblnR of a surprise and the banks barely had tlmo to prepare for It. Now they am. ready with the largest reserves In their history. Doth the First National and", tho American National are In position to pay every depositor on demand, since, back' of them atandt tho federal neserve, the strongest In stitution In the world. Atlde from tblt they have cash on hand and In npprot cil depositories three timet larger than over before However, thoro will bo no occasion to call on It, for It la generally understood throughout tho community that both bankt are ready to meet any contin gency. v Tho samo It true of the other bankt In the county. Tho Pint Na tional at Merrill, the Hank of Honan 14 and the Malln State Bank are all In splendid condition, all due to anul tra conservative policy controlling their affair, during tho past year. There It no connection between the Malln State bank and the First State and Savlngi bank, that bond having been kovored when the bank closed tho first time.

A discus slon of the valuations placed by coun ty board of qunllxitlnn occupied thn stale tnx commission this morn ing 1 N Day, chairman, presented fig ures showing that vuluallon of til lable land ranged from $9.42 an acre (n Curry county to $162.67 In Mult nomah county. Six counties listed tillable nnd non tlllablo together, a wide range of val uation In timber lands and livestock also U shown Pierce, of Iji tlrnnde. acted as chairman. Tho state commission bellevct that nil necessary "stato revenue! cannot be derived from Income tax. NKW CHOP (Conlnued from Tage 1) J UUTJ-Lrinnrua --!-- - - -- m mmmnmmmto reported br the department of ag riculture to have been 145.50 per month with board, a comparej with $73.21 with board In "1920. Flour Mill lncTi "The Industrie of the district directly allied with agriculture are In appreciably better condition than they were at tho beginning of 1921. Sixty-one flour nilll are operating at 56 per cent capacity, compared with 2." per cent a year ago. The canned fruit and Tegetible Indus try, which early last year waa terl cutly cmbarass'd with an abnor mally heavy carry-over of goods produced at high costs, hat been able thus far to dispose of thin car-ry-ovtr and most of thr 1921 pack, which It reported to have been 70 per cent of that of 1920. Market demapd at the end of 1921 wat re ported good, and present estimate are that the fruit and vrgetable pack In the district during the com ing year -will be a' large one. "In Industrial activity the most notable contrast with rondlttont pre vailing a year ago appears In the lumber Industry. December, 1921. wat more active than customary. Production of four anoclatlont of thlt district was 3 per cent great er than It wat In December. 1920; orders received were 179 per cent greater and shipment, G5 per cent greater In amount; unfilled order reported by two anoclatlont were 190 per rent greater at the end of 1921 than tbey were at the end of 1920. Kxport of lumber to Japan during the first nine months of 1921 were 174 per cent greater than during tho first nine months of 1920, and recently a alight re vival In Australian' demand hat ap peared. "nulldlng activity throughout the i b It , REDUCTIONS district continue l record figures, llecemhcr return being only second to those of last October. The jenr 19J1 thow nn Increase of .11 5 per rent In number and 17.9 per cent In value of permit compared with 1920. "Ilmlness failures continue to )n heavy, those for December beliiR thn largest reported during thn past threo year. They wero Rrcatcr by 41.5 per cent In number nnd IS per rent In total liability than failures n December, 1920. "Hank clearing of the 20 prin cipal cities during December of $l,fi'J7,9fi$,000 were only 4.1 per cent lest than the clearing of IV cember, 1920. Thl, Is tho mnllct pcrccnttgo at decrease for any month of 192t, when compared with tho corresponding month of 1910, nnd a considerably tmnller percentage; of decrease than occur red to wholesale and retail prices during tho period. It would appear that tho physical volume of busi ness Is novr greater than It wn n jear ago. SnvlnR Improve "Notwithstanding exceptions Jn Seattle and Spokane, saving de posit gennrnlly throughout tho dis trict do not show the decline which might have been anticipated, but, Instead, an Increase of 4.5 per cent In amount during the ear ending December ISth. "December talet of 28 reporting retnll store wero 2.4 per cent less In dollar value than they were In December, 19201 Sale In Sun Francisco and Xos Angeles were largtr In dollar value than In De cember, 1920. It I apparent that tho holiday trade this "year was ap preciably larger in physical volume than It wat last ear. "Figure are now available cov ering tale during thn year 1920 and 1921 of tho reporting firm In ten line of wholesale trade. These flgnrc are based upon a compari son of dollar valuo of net talet and thow a decrease In all reporting lines, varying from 117 per cent for drugs, to 62.6 for agricultural Implements (deluding the latter, the average discount for nil line .would not bo far from 20 per cent. If corrections of dollar values were made to compensate for tho price dncllnrt which have occurred In all lines during the past two years. It It probable that the physical vol ume of merchandise moved at wholesale would thow approximate ly the tame at that moved In 1920. In November three wholesale lne. dry goods, furniture and automo bile tires, reported larger dollar values of talet than In November, 1920. and In December two more line, drugt and shoes, were added to the list."
