Pickett Disputes Facts In Bank Debt and Dividend Case
Pickett says he did not know about outstanding debts or past due accounts until the July 1 1931 meeting when the president allegedly told directors all bad debts were charged off since the January meeting. He denies knowledge of a $60 000 increase in building value enabling a $60 000 dividend without reducing the surplus of $876 000. He believes records show profits in early 1931 could cover the dividend.
