Ogden Debits Up In Ogden, bank debits were up 12 per cent, from $284,955,000 for the first four months of 1956, compared with $319,200,000 for Utah Foundation analysts re-port that the actual cost of the compensation pro gram for the past three years in Utah has been considerably less than the assumptions made in a 1954 actuarial forecast by ex- perts of the Department of Em ployment Security. For example, the actual employment conditions in Utah during the period 1954 through 1956 were 11 better than the best probable economic conditions assumed by the 1954 official study. They were 23 better than were assumed for the most probable economic conditions, and 45 better than those assumed for the worst probable conditions.

Total bank deposits of all Utah reporting member banks were $665 million at the end of the first four months of 1957, compared with 659 million in 1956. Mr. Eccles said there are now seven national banks and 42 state banks operating 115 offices or facilities in the state. Total assets of Utahs commercial banks now exceed $850 million. The robust gains in activity by Utahs commercial banks is an index to the remarkable growth in our Utah economy in recent years, Mr. Eccles said. Retail Sales Gain For example, retail sales in the intermountain area increased 356.3 per cent since 1940. Our population in Utah is gaining at a rate more thafl three times as great as 20 years ago. Utahs population rose 8.3 per cent from 1930 to 1940; 26.17 per cent from 1940 to 1950, and has already gained 20.45 per cent in the past seven years. New industry continues to move into our midst, accentuated by new discoveries of oil, gas, chemicals, uranium and other basics. Colorado River developments will add much more in strength and growth to" our economy. Utahs future is a bright one, and the states bankers are prepared to continue to play an increasingly important role in the great development ahead. ; Pastor Returns From Trip East Monticello Plumbing & Heating Monticello, Utah Utah Monticello, Rules Permits Phone 121R1 compensation tax rates and reserve fund adequacy have , been b ht Int0 focus b lhe Provisions of a proclamation 1957 rise in unemployment tax issued by State Forester J.
