LIKE SON Born In Fort Scott, Kansas, Mr. Taylor attended public school and high school In Kansas City, Missouri. During his third year at the University of Kansas, he went to work In his fathers bank in Lewiston, Montana, and decided to become a banker. With this aim In mind, Mr. Taylor attended New York University for two years and received a business degree a In 1916. His hopes of crashing into e banking world were Inter- rupted by the Kaisers subs crashing into U.S, shipping in 1917. During World War I, Lieutenant Taylor served as a field artillery officer with the 91st Division In France for nine months. After the war, Taylor went back to his fathers bank In Montana, but another type of stike ended his banking duties again. When oil was discovered in,, Montana, Mr. Taylor went Into the oil exploration and drilling business. But after four years and big oil strikes In California, price of black gold drop-e- d ... and out dropped Mr. aylor from the oil racket. Back to banking again, for the next three years he was of deputy superintendent Banks for Montana. This was a tough period to be In the banking business ... 1923 to 1926 ... the time when about half of the banks failed. I was a bank examiner and If the bank didnt measure up I had to close It and remain In charge until a receiver was , a appointed. His next stop was his start up the success ladder at Prudential. He was appointed secretary and manager of the U.S. Building and Loan Association of Montana. In 1938 the association received its federal charter and moved to the largest city In the area .... Salt Lake. Called the First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Butte for a year, It then merged with Prudential and has kept that name until the resent. As chairman of the board consultant, Mr. Taylor still keeps his hand on the pulse of Prudential. I attend the monthly meetings and as problems come up, I discuss aspects of the business with officials. An ardent civil worker, Mr. Taylor has been associated with a great many organizations during the past 25 years. He was president of Blue Cross, Community Chest and YMCA, a member of theboard of governors, Chamber ''oF Commerce, and a member of the Salt Lake City School Board to mention a few. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor have one son, Thomas T., who Is with the U. S. Information Agency In Tripoli. They have four grart3chlldren. Future plans? I'll keep up on affairs of the Association, travel and have a continuing Interest In gard- d ening. o Show Open Evenings , Weekends Homes-Hom- e Therell be no wrinkles on r. Taylors heart.
