Outlook Good For Payments In Reasonable Time SOME MATTERS TO BE IRONED OUT Necessary That Equalization Be Reached Under Moratorium Recently L. V. Wright, receiver of the Citizens State Bank, Noblesville, filed a long list of liabilities of the bank in the office of the clerk of the local court, and the court ordered notice published in the newspapers, fixing April 15th, 1935, as the last day for filing preferred claims, and for objections to allowances and disallowances of the claims as recommended by the receiver. It is the opinion of those connected with the liquidation of the bank that a dividend can be declared at sometime during the April term of the court if all questions can be ironed out, which have been raised by several petitions now on file, asking for equalization and growing out of the administration of the bank under moratoriums. It is well known that many people received the per cent authorized by the moratoriums, but that some received only a part and some received nothing, and the question as to what shall be done as to equalizing depositors will be taken up by the court at an early date, so that if possible a dividend may be declared as planned by the Department of Financial Institutions in charge of the bank. That portion of the deposits in the Citizens State Bank which was taken over from the Wainwright Trust Company when it ceased to do a general banking business, and remaining unpaid, were secured by a large number of mortgages which are in the hands of Trustees appointed by the court to collect the mortgage securities, under a separate trust known as the Special Assets of the Wainwright Trust Company. These trustees were appointed by Judge Hines, representing both institutions, and are making progress in collecting such special assets, and it is expected that dividends in that fund will be made at the same time. This plan of taking care of those deposits was approved by the court and by the State Banking Department.
