OF THE WEEK'S NEWS Number 31. 0 HOOPSTERS fACE RIVERTON FARMER COMPETITION IN SUFFERS FIRE LOSS GAIN!NC POSTS : Midvale Bank Nine-Hour Blaze Kept From Spreading To House Plans Delayed By Depositors BrltaJn,s Seeond note to the United States, advancing arguments in support of the contention that the December 15 payment should be passed, was given final approvaJ by the British cabinet. A fire of undetermined origin, but which, according to investigators, may have been sta1·ted by defective wiring in the barn, destroyed buildings and farm equipment valued at approximately $3000 Tuesday night on the farm of James W. Dansie in Riverton. Nineteen firemen from the Salt Lake county fire department, unw der the supervision of Chief Jack Clay, battled the flames for nine hours before the danger was over. The Dansie place is located close to the business district of Riverton, and only the prompt and efficient work on the part of the firemen pre· vented the flames from spreading to the Dansie home or to the property of nearby neighbors. Three years ago the residence on the Dansie farm was razed by fire. According to Chief Clay considerable delay was encountered when the fire fighters reached the scene due to the fact that there is no fire hydrant in th city. The firemen were compelled to string hose for a distance of 2000 feet to the canal and pump water to the fire. Chief Clay said they were fortunate in finding water in the canal, as at times when the sugar factory is not operating the canal is frequently dry. The installation of a fire plug in Riverton, says Chief Clay, would be of untold benefit to the firemen in the event of a conflagration. Among the items listed as destroyed by Tuesday's fire were, In addition to the barn, approximately 75 tons of hay, a threshing machine, a tractor, two horses, two cows, a calf, five sheep, some pigs and miscellaneous farm equipment. There was no insurance carried on the property. For hours while the hay was burning a strong wind threatened to carry sparks or flames to adjoining property, and it was not until every vesw tige of fire had been conquered that firemen and neighbors of Mr. Dansie ceased their efforts to hold the flames in check. Depositors in the closed Midvale State bank holding approximately 15 per cent of the total deposits are delaying the carry· ing out of the plans to reopen the institution, according to Melvin Lind, chairman of the Depositors' committee. It is essential that au deposits be represented in the "yes" column in order to carry out the reopening plans, Mr. Lind said. Under the proposed method of reopening the institution will agree to pay certain portions of deposili; at specified times, and will be conducted under a new name and as a new institution. Inasmuch as 85 per cent of the deposits have been pledged to the new plan the carrying out of the entire program depends on the few remaining depositors' agreeing to the proposal. Until such time as they join with the majorw ity nothing can be done toward liquidating the bank. Everyone holding bank books showing a balance in the institution is urged to cooperate with those already pledged for the early opening of the bank.
