      RAYMOND G. JUBITZ.  For a quarter of a century Raymond G. Jubitz has 
served as secretary of the Security Savings & Trust Company, of Portland, and 
his record in the banking business has gained for him a high place in the 
esteem of all who know him. Mr. Jubitz was born in Portland, on the 4th of 
May, 1870, and is a son of Albin and Rosa (Ebinger) Jubitz, both of whom were 
natives of Germany, the father born at Weissenfels and the mother at Danzig. 
Ferdinand Jubitz, the paternal grandfather of R. G. Jubitz, was a member of a 
local military organization which took part in the unsuccessful Prussian 
revolution of 1848. He Was imprisoned and his property was confiscated, and on 
regaining his liberty he turned to America. His two sons, Albin and Ferdinand, 
soon followed, the former making his way to San Francisco, California, via the 
Isthmus of Panama, and later coming to Oregon in 1864. Deciding to make 
Portland his home, he entered into a business partnership with Andrew Saling 
which continued for forty-five years. In 1866 he married Rosa Ebinger, 
daughter of William A. Ebinger, and here they spent the remainder of their 
lives. They had five children: Albin, Ferdinand, Raymond G., Marie C. and 
George L., the two first named dying in infancy. William A. Ebinger, the 
maternal grandfather of R. G. Jubitz, came to America on the ship Fidler in 
1847 and settled in Wisconsin. In 1853 he crossed the plains with his family 
and settled in Portland, Oregon. On the journey he joined the camp of Frank 
Hoffman, in whose honor Hoffman Hill, now part of the city of Portland, was 
named.

     Raymond G. Jubitz received his educational training in private, graded 
and high schools of Portland and subsequently matriculated in the law 
department of the University of Oregon, from which he was graduated in 1894. 
In 1888 he entered the service of the First National Bank as a messenger. In 
1895 he was in the employ of the Portland Gas Company and five years later 
became a member of the staff of the Security Savings & Trust Company of 
Portland. He has been with this institution continuously since and on June 10, 
1903, was elected to his present position as secretary, the duties of which 
office he has discharged in a very capable and satisfactory manner. In 1924 he 
was made a member of the board of directors of the Security Savings & Trust 
Company. In 1907 he was elected secretary of the Portland Clearing House 
Association and in 1920 was chosen the first president of the Trust Companies 
of Oregon.

     In 1911 Mr. Jubitz was united in marriage to Miss Anna Rankin, of 
Portland, and they are the parents of three children: Anne, Raymond G., Jr., 
and Monroe A.

     The military record of Mr. Jubitz began in 1887 as a charter member of 
Company I, First Regiment, Oregon National Guard. Subsequently he was elected 
captain of Company H, which office he held until elected major, while later he 
was made lieutenant colonel. He served with the regiment until 1903, when he 
was transferred to the Veteran Corps with the rank of lieutenant colonel. The 
republican party claims his allegiance and he is loyal to the best interests 
of his community. Fraternally he is affiliated with the Masonic order, 
belonging to Washington Lodge, No. 46, A. F. & A. M.; Portland Consistory, A. 
A. S. R.; and Al Kader Temple, A. A. O. N. M. S. His name is likewise on the 
rolls of the Arlington Club, the Chamber of Commerce and Lang Syne Society. He 
is a life member of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club and also of the 
Portland Art Association. He has exemplified the highest type of citizenship 
in his life, has been generous in his support of all worthy causes and has 
maintained mutually pleasant relations with his fellowmen, so that throughout 
the community in which he lives he commands the highest measure of confidence 
and respect.
