A stringent State law il needed to
regulate the establishment Of banks.
There are too many wildcat financial
schemes now In existence in Chicago.

Its police power to regulate the estab

promoters OF these institutions, and
none should be allowed to be licensed
unless such as could show assets ample

sufficient to cover the amount of their
deposits, and sound and substantial

deposltors.
There can be no question as to the
right and the justice Of the city to
exercise such power under a properly

which II exercises unquestioned super.
vising powers, II certainly has a per.
