Mr. Greenwood served the city as mayor for two ' consecutive terms from 1927 to 193 1. He has . been president of the Lion? club and has taken an active part in other civic organizations of our city. As a church worker, Mr. Greenwood was president of the Young Men's-M I: A. in the First ward for 14 years and is at present president of the Seventy's quorum. He has served f he ''Alpine" stake as chairman of the Old Folks committee for a number of years and is now acting on the trl-stake Old Folks committee. He has been very successful in the operation op-eration of his business affairs. . The .entire, strength of-thejaemo?, cratlc organization of the American Fork precinct is behind Mr. Greenwood Green-wood and his success and standing In the county will give him an un-asual un-asual strength when the convention is called. Commissioner Candidate For Renomination Hot School Lunch Vegetables to Be Canned The canning of fruits and vegetables vege-tables to be used In serving hot school lunches for boys and girls in the grades from one to six, will be done tomorrow, Saturday, at the W. P. A. canning center Just north of Boley's, Inc. The school lunches are being made available through the combined ef forts of the Parent-Teachers Asso elation and a W. P. A. project, it was announced today by Mrs. Leo Meredith, president of the associa tion. The lunch will consist of hot bowl of soup to be eaten with the sandwich brought from home, with a serving of fruit as a special treat once a Week. All children in grades one to six, are entitled to the lunch service, but it is urged that those living close to the school who can get a hot meal at home do so, Peaches, pears, tomatoes, corn, beans or any other produce avail able for canning at this time of the season will be canned tomorrow. The fruits and vegetables should be at the canning center Friday afternoon after-noon or early Saturday morning. Wherever It Is Impossible to take the produce to the center a phone call to Jesse M. Walker, Dr. James Chadwlck, Reed H. Robinson or Mrs. Leo Meredith, will bring a truck to pick it up. o New City Park Advocated Here A number of citizens are discussing discuss-ing the advislblllty of securing a larger city park for American Fork thru the acquiring of the late Wm. Robinson property between the city library and the present park. It is pointed out that this is the opportune oppor-tune time to make the move and en-large en-large our present park. Some have advanced the thought that the park should be named the Robinson park In memory of this pioneer figure, generally known as "Curlcy Bill Robinson" by the older citizens. Some concerted public effort should be made to get this community commu-nity project before the city council. It has been suggested that the task be undertaken by the Daughters of the pioneers, by the ladles clubs of the city, by the city officials, by some church organization or by the Lions club. Who ever assumes the responsibility of the project it should be done at once, Is the general feeling feel-ing of the Interested citizens. , There were three conditions to the i offer made. First, that we secure agreements to sell from seventy-five per cent for our deposit liability. Second, that the buyer have ten days In which to go Into the records and assets of the bank. Third, that a liquidation corporation corpora-tion be formed to take control of the assets of- the bank out of the t hands of the. .State Banking Dept. The first condition has been fully complied with. Depositors represent- ino hetwoan slffhtv miiA Tiinntv rur I "o v ' j r cent ox our aepoeiis . .nave signsa agreements to sell. fn the matter of the second condition, con-dition, the State ' Banking Dept. refused to allow the auditors of the Consolidated Holding Company to examine the books and records of the Bank." The Depositors' Commit tee then went to Salt. Lake and. met with the Bank Ctomrolssloner, Mr. Starley and his attorney, ard received re-ceived an enMg'ifrbm'iae Commissioner that an Inspection might be made by the auditors under un-der the auspices oT the Depositors' Committee, the report' of the auditors audi-tors to cbhie direct "WtlMf comnit'ee and not to the buyers. The Commissioner Com-missioner was opposed, to gain into back history of ths adminlstrnion of the affalrs "at "the" Bank, but stat- ed that he was not opposed to te present status being determined. t3M.ommtttMJ es of the Commissioner and eliminated elimi-nated the requests for an examina tion of items pertaining to past history. his-tory. To our surprise when our auditors au-ditors presented themselves to make the examination, they were ('& refused. W thea appealed to-thai District Court, where; after opposition opposi-tion from the State Banking. Dept. we succeeded In getting an order from Judge Turner al!fn a member mem-ber of the DepositoWttommlttfe and one agent or attorney to examine ex-amine the books and records of ixs Bank of American Fork, and Mr. Baxter, of the audlng firm of Scholefleld, Wells and Baxter, was named as the agent to make the examination. It is just too bad that we were not permitted by the court to make a complete audit of the books and records of the bank, as the Judge himself should .have been concerned in knowing that the accounts ac-counts were O. K. inasmuch as he had accepted and approved the reports re-ports f the State Banking Dept In the matter of the third condition, condi-tion, a petition has been filed in the I District Court at Provo, seeking the transfer of the assets of theBank from the State Banking Dept. to a Liquidating ' Corporation, and the hearing on the petition is scheduled for September 12th. Now for a comment or two on the situation. It is the apparent aim of the State Banking Department to block our every move to dispose of our deposits for cash to the Consolidated Consol-idated Holding Company, and the unfortunate thing is that this block, lng and all the expenses connected with it, will doubtless be charged to the Bank of American Fork. The Banking Dept. have ah agreement with their attorneys to pay them $50,00 per day for every day they appear in Court and $23.00 per" day for office work. Just think of It- paying their attorney $23.00 per day to sit to his office and plan to keep the depositors from doing what they want to do. The Banking Department say they expect to get a big loan from the Government so tha the depositors may realize from thirty-five to forty per cent on their deixslts, and then have an equity in the Bank's assets. We have heard that. story before without realization. If a loan were secured of sufflck-nt size to help our depositors materially, the Banking Department would have to expend hundreds of dollars in clearing up titles, etc. which would all have to be deducted from the amount received re-ceived from the Government. It la my personal opinion that the underlying un-derlying object of this loan is that the State Banking Department might remain in clarge of the Bank and continue to draw their salaries and fees, which, to we common people peo-ple who earn their bread by the sweat of the brow, appear excessive. By a recent decision of the Supreme Court of Utah, no matter how large j a loan the Government may make, the State Banking Department would remain In charge of the liquidating liqui-dating of the Bank. The Banking Dept does not want to kill the goose that lays the golden egg. We do not want a Government loan at this time. If a big loan were obtained. so far as further recovery by ths depositors, the chances would be so slim that we may as well forget It i if New Poultry Dressing Plant To Be Located In Am.

Fourth Ward New Organiza tion Named The heads. of the auxiliary or ganizations of the Fourth ward were reorganized at the evening meeting In the ward chapel last Sunday. A complete change was made In the Mutlinpwvement--Assocj and Primary, one new counselor be lng added to the personnel of the Sunday School. The Mutual presidency now stands as follows: Young Men- Bert Christensen, president; Leon ard Pett and Harold Hall, counse lors, with LaMar Clements, secre tary; Young Women Mrs. L. B. Adamson, president; Miss Velma Shelley - and Mrs. Been Ferguson, counselors; the secretary Is not yet selected. Mrs. Fern Edwards was sustained president of the Primary Association Associa-tion with Mrs. Vern Chipman and Mrs. Warren Anderson as counselors counse-lors and Miss Donna Wootton as secretary. Morley Steele was sustained as second counselor to Leo Hansen in the Sunday School. Jesse Spafford Is the first counselor. D. W. Thome will continue his work as ward clerk. Interest on the Government loan would have to be paid and expenses both Governmental and State would have to be met, and the loan would have to be all paid back. True, It would give the State Banking men a Job at remuerative wages. In the matter of the disposing of our deposits for cash, the Depositors' Committee acted In good faith, feeling feel-ing that it was an opportunity that we could not afford to lose, knowing know-ing conditions as we did, and we feel yet that the proposition Is a good one, and we hope our deposi tors will stand back of us. As a committee we have tried to faithful ly serve our depositors, realizing that the life savings of many of our old people, who are rapidly passing away, and also the savings of our widows and orphans were Involved. We feel that the stand of the Utah State Banking Dept.. is entirely unjustified, un-justified, and actuated by selfish motives. Are you willing to stand by us? , Respectfully submitted, - . Geo. F.
