Guthrie. Okla. Jan. 19--An informal
meeting ofa number Of state bankers was
held here yesterday in the office Of Bank
commissioner Young at which the features
of the Roddie bill for amending the de-
positors' guarantee law were discussed.
The bankers took no formal action, but
expressed approval in the main Of some
of the features Of the Roddie bill They
agree that a limitation should be placed
on the number Of new banks by placing
the minimum capitalization Of new state
banks at from $4,000 to $4,000 and
upward according to the populationof the
towns. They also favor relieving state
be7kers from giving security for state
funds deposited with them while their

The bankers present yesterday would
have the legislature limit the maximum
for the guarantee fund to 2
per cent in any one year.
