charred bodies of Antoine Stetka, wife

near the Dominion coal mine, ten miles

1t is not impossible that a measure
to prohibit officers and directors of all
banks over which this state has jur-
isdiction from borrowing money from
the banks with which they have con-
nection may be offered in the legisla-
ture. The debeate on the Lewis bill
to apply the national banking act pro-
vision relating to reports to the state
and for publication to Iowa state and
savings banks brought out the state
ment that they would favor a measure
absolutely prohibiting officers and di-
rectors Of banks borrowing money
therefrom.
Under the law as 1t is the officers OF
a state or savings bank in Iowa can
borrow money from his bank by max
ing formal application which will be
acted on at a meeting of the directors
from which the officers must absent
himself. Directors may borrow in the
usual way. National bank officers may
go to the bank in the morning and
without a word to anybody borrow on
their own notes. OF course an Iowa
law could not apply to the national
bank, but a law which will prohibit
state and savings banks from lending
money to officers and directors would
receive strong support from bankers
in the legislature,
