TO GUARANTEE BANK DEPOSITS

Senator Walter c. Owen of Maiden
Rock has introduced a bill for the
guaranty of state bank deposits that
is expected to meet favorable con-
sideration
Senator Ovens bill places the per-
centage Of deposits to be placed in a
safety fund at per cent of deposits,
the same as the rate in Oklahoma. This
rule however, is to be in effect only
two years, approximately, or until such
time as the fund of each bank reaches
| 2 per cent of deposits. Thereafter the
banks are supposed to put aside ITO OF
/ per cent each year to add to the
original per cent fund. The Owen
bill provides that each bank shall main
it's own fund, instead of depositing it
with state commission, the assump-
ton being that the state bank depart
ment will be able to keep strict watch
on this fund as it does of the percent
age of capital, surplus, deposits, etc.,
at the present time.
According to the terms Of Mr..
Ovens bill the state bank depart
ment is to draw pro rata amount
| from each state banks safety fund
whenever any one of it's members fails,
the guaranty fund of each bank being
always subject to the states draft.
One clause of Mr.. Owens bill is
Of special interest. 1t provides that
the state shall refuse a certificate to
any bank seeking to organize in COM
munity, when, in the opinion of the
department, the business of the COM
munity does not warrant the estab-
lishment of the bank seeking char
ter. Another phase Of the measure IS
that the safety fund feature shall not
apply to any bank which pays interest
of higher rate than per cent to de-
positors.
