Bank of Hayti Defends Solvency Amid Gossip Campaign
Bank officers and directors of the Bank of Hayti issue a public defense against rumors harming its financial standing. The notice proclaims the bank solvent with a $20,000 capital, $5,000 surplus, and undisclosed profits for 1920, warning that spreading false statements violates Missouri law and can incur fines and imprisonment. The bank pledges to prosecute those originating or circulating defamatory gossip and offers a $25 reward for information leading to convictions. It cites Section 3366 of Missouri Banking Laws and thanks patrons for continued support.
