McCook Proposes State Stock Sale in Banks
Haryford Nov 19 The proposal to sell the state's holdings in six national banks to sidestep double liability was put to Comptroller Salmon by Treasurer Anson T McCook. The six banks total 219 718 in market value with 128 shares of First National Bank of Bridgeport costing 12 800, market value 24 040. Salmon opposed sale citing solid investments and potential to recoup losses via other bank stock. If sold the state would gain about 125 000, with dividends last year 9 937. McCook said securities are sound but the contingent liability plus national bank status warrants consideration of a sale.
