THOSE DEFENDANTS to en- ter pleas: Leon Merle Crawford, 23, State Bank Notes Record An historic milestone in Oregon financial circles was recorded this week when First National Bank of Oregon became the state's first bank to reach a billion dollars in resources. r.. K. Stephenson, president of the statewide banking system, an nounced that the bank's resources had reached the one billon dollar mark, adding that mounting public funds deposits from property tax payments pushed the figure to the new all-time high. The bank president noted that al though it required 80 years for the institution to reach the half billion dollar mark in assets, the second half billion was posted in the past 14 years. First National, which was char tered on September 8, 1865. reached the half billion dollar mark in resources on August 31, 1045. It is interesting to note, Ste phenson said, that the bank had exactly half its present total of 80 1 offices at the time, and within several thousand of half the pres ent total of 60B.725 commercial and savings accounts. Stephenson expressed gratitude to the people of Oregon for their patronage which he said has made the billion dollar statement pos sible. "A sharp rise in individual savings by Oregonians has been a key factor in the growth of de posits to record peaks during the past year," he declared. "The lively pace of Oregon's present economy is reflected in the bank's billion dollar state ment." he continued. "The record volume of employment, record in come of individuals and the new marks in individual savin; throughout the state indicates our state's 1959 growth and develop ment will exceed the national trends," the banker concluded.
