unscrupuously. The state banks of yir-
sinia, chartered by her and having on
deposit and subject to their control mil
lions of dollars in money. should be
subject to laws combining their opera
tons within safe and conservative
limits and they should be sufficiently
examined by a capable and honest Of
fetal TO ascertain their solvency and
whether their assets are impaired or
not, and see that the laws controlling
them are obeyed. Banks that are prop

migration to Virginia. Wisdom requires
that we should MS nearly ns possible
endeavor to control and guide the cliarac-
ter OF this Immigration SO that 1t may
bring us an elevation, not deteriorn-

Insurance and Banking.
Another matter demanding Legislation
is the creation Jointly or separately, ns
may seem better, of Department of
banking and insurance and the
enactment OF some additional lcgisln-
ton controlling those two businesses in
this state. Banks arc Indispensable to
modern commerce and business. They
facilitate exchange and thus vastly in
crease trade and commerce. They act
as the great arteries of the financial
system, conveying the money from where
there is an excess to the parts where
IT is most needed, thus keeping up a
healthy, vigorous circulation. BY their
system OF credits they have greatly in
creased the Potentially OF money and
thus enabled one dollar to perform the
service that before required many. No
aggressive, energetic, progressive or COM
mercial people can afford to be deficient
in banking facilities or destitute of suf-
fcicnt banking capital. TO prevent
their creation and successful operation
on legitimate and safe lines, or to tamp-
er them by unnecessary restrictions or
inspections would be suicidal. But, as
great as are the advantages to COM
munity of bank run safely and con-
servatively, equally as disastrous are

the Federal government for the control
OF National hunks State banks occupy
many fields of usefulness, perform much
good service, ana extend Accommodations
to b large class of good and solvent Gus
toners dehnrred under the Federal ays-
tom. Virginia should not longer delay
legislation upon this matter. In times OF
depression and panic those people suffer
most and longest who have been inflicted
upon with tho worst and most reckless
banking. Safe and sensible banking can
best be secured by reasonable restrlctions
and thorough Investigations.
AS previously stated. insurance re-
quires consideration at our hands. The
benefits derived from both life and fro
insurance are vast and innumerable. In
surance is 10 promOtive of public good
that 1t should be encouraged and no leBis-
lntion should be enacted that would retard
Its use or proper extension. But, there
