Over Seventeen Hundred National
Bank Charters Expire In 1909.

One very important measure which
will be urged upon congress at its COM
ing session Of next December is legisla-
tion extending the charters o! large
number OF national banks. Out OF the
4,064 banks operating under the MA
tional banking law, according to Comp
troller Dawes interview published In
special Washington dispatch TO the
New York Journal OF Commerce, there
are 1913 national banks whose charters
will expire on various dates after July
IL, 1902, and whose corporate existence
cannot be extended without further nc
tion by congress. The dispatch states
that the officials Of those banks, as well
as the comptroller, are much concerned
over Senator Allison's objections.
The original act, passed in 1859, pro-
vided that the charters OF national
banks should extend over period Of
twenty years, and on July IL, 1882, an
amendment was passed authorizing the
comptroller OF the currency to extend
the charters for another period Of
twenty years. Mr.. Dawes holds that
the amendment passed In 1882 does not
give him authority, to re-extend the
charters OF those banks expiring after
1902, and that new legislation Is neces-
sary to reach them.
