the South Norwallt Savings Bank has
purchased the property east of the
United Bank building. in Washington

banking house. which will more
adequately supply the lhcreaslng
needs: of that institution.
The rumor was taken to one of the
officials of the bank and was neither
affirmed nor denied. a direct question
as to whether or not the officials were
contemplating the advlslbility of build-

the effect that no definite action had

“The rumor whichoomcs fromsan au-
