Franklin Payments Start.
The Franklin Liquidating Trust
today began disbursement of $100.
000 to about 17.000 depositors of the
former Franklin National Bank, by
paying a 10 per cent dividend on
the face value of participating cer
tificates. This dividend amounts to
3‘/2 per cent of the face value of
deposits in the Franklin Bank when
It closed in 1933.
This dividend, which is the fourth
to be paid on the certificates, is in
reality the fifth dividend to de
positors, as the first dividend of
65 per cent was made available
through the City Bank of Wash
ington. With the new payment to
day depositors will have received a
total of $2,650,000, or 93 per cent of
deposits.
Heads Credit Union.
Robert N. Mattingly, principal of
Cardoza High School, at Ninth street
and Rhode Island avenue, was re
elected president of the Educational
Employes’ Credit Union of the Dis
trict of Columbia at a recent an
nual meeting, where an 8% per
cent dividend was declared.
The treasurer’s report showed
that the union’s net earnings be
fore providing the addition to the
legal reserve approximated 11 per
cent for the year 1939: that of a
cash turnover of $28,679.28. the
amount of $21,320 represented loans
to members, thus bringing the total
loaned since organization to $51,
256.75 without a loss.
With the exception of Mrs. Eu
dora Winters, who declined re
election on account of poor health,
all officers, directors, committeemen
and representatives, in addition to
Mr. Mattingly, were re-elected.
Associates Honor Harrell.
John B. Harrell, president of C6
lumbia Federal Savings & Loan
Association, was guest of honor at
a dinner tendered by his associates
last night celebrating his 75th birth
day anniversary at the Wardman
Park Hotel, with the following
present:
Clarence E. Kefauver, Albert O.
Denham, C. Gay Harrell, George B.
Cowles, W. Owen Hohenstein, How
ard E. Thompson, R. T. Harrell,
William Poulten and their wives.
A native of Suffolk, Va.. Mr. Har
rell moved to Washington in 1896.
Engaging in the real estate business,
he assisted in the development of
the great Northwest section of the
city. In 1907 he organized the Co
lumbia Federal, which today has
resources in excess of $5,200,000.
Last month Mr. Harrell was re
elected president of the association
fr\r cnpppccivo Hmo
Hot Spring Gets Conclave.
Local bankers were gratified to
learn that the 1940 convention of
the Financial Advertisers’ Associa
tion will be held at Hot Springs,
Va., October 28 to 30, according
to announcement just made by
Chester L. Price, chairman of the
Convention City Committee after
unanimous adoption by the directors
of the association.
Washington had been favorably
considered, but the election year
was not deemed the best time for
the gathering here. Popularity of
Hot Springs has been evidenced by
Its frequent selection for conventions
of the D. C. Bankers' Association.
The midwinter conference of the
F. A. A. will be held in New York,
beginning Friday next and continu
ing through Monday. Eliot Thom
son, of the Washington Loan &
Trust Co., who is a member of the
Senior Advisory Council, is expected
to attend.
Heard in Financial District.
Rutherford B. Dooley, vice presi
dent and cashier of the National
Bank of Washington, has returned
from a short trip to New York. He
was among the large delegation of
Washington Bankers who attended
thg American Institute of Banking
banquet Saturday night.
Edwin C. Graham, president of
the Hamilton National Bank, is
among the Washingtonians now en
joying a winter vacation in Florida,
having left here a few days ago
for Miami, his favorite resort.
The very large number of holders
of General Motors common stock in
Washington will receive a dividend
of 75 cents per share on March
12 provided they will own their
stock on February 15. This is the
same as the dividends paid last
March, June and September. In De
cember, $1.25 was paid.

ket traders stepped in with bids for
lately dormant steels today and
