BARCLAYS NEW APPOINTMENTS.
The foregoing reference to the late Mr. Goodenough reminds me of the interest and satisfaction which has been expressed during the last week with regard to the announcement of the new appointments at Barclays Bank. Mr. William Favill Tuke, the Deputy Chairman of the Bank, has been appointed Chairman in succession to the late Mr. Goodenough, while Mr. Edwin Fisher, one of the Vice-Chairmen, has been elected Deputy Chairman. The choice of both these gentle- men is an eminently fitting one, as- their association with Barclays Bank has been a close one extending over many years. It will be recalled that the-late. Mr.. F. C. Goodenough was also Chairman of Barclays Bank (Dominion, Colonial and Overseas), but very wisely it has been determined that the Chairman of Barclays Bank should. not carry this double strain, and Mr. Herbert .Leslie. Melville Tritton has been elected Chairman of Barclays Bank (D. C. & 0.). A. W. K.
