The bank is able to coordinate the individual issues so that they can be sold at more Named Bond Bank favorable interest rates when offered collectively.

"I think that the Bond Bank could play an increasingly important role in the financial stability of many Vermont towns," Cummings said. The board will meet in Montpelier "as often as needed" to determine policy and to review the applications by towns to the board to have their issues sold through the New York agency that handles Vermont bonds.

Albans, Frank W. Black, vice chairman, who is the chief executive officer and vice president of the Peoples National Bank in Barre, Dr. John T. Fuy, president of the National Life Insurance Co. in Montpelier, and Frank H.
