NEW BANKING CODE

Santa Fe, Nov 2O.- Although the
present state banking law was con-
sidered one of the best on any statute
book, yet there is already strong pres
sure upon legislators for an entirely
new code. The failures Of banks
since the coming Of statehood exceed
ed in few years the number that
occurred during the Otero and sue
ceeding administrations, covering a
period of a decade and a half, are
pointed out as evidence that there
must be a much more strict regula-
ton and supervision of the state
banks. A bank guarantee act is also
to be introduced. The proposed bank
ing act is to take in consideration the
changes that have been wrought in
the banking business by federal legis-
lation

POSTMASTER GENERAL WANTS
FEDERAL OWNERSHIP OF
COMMUNICATION LINES

Washington, Nov. 2O.-A second
move toward government ownership
Of the telephones and telegraphs Of
the country is being launched in con
gress by the postoffict department,
under the jurisdiction of which it is
proposed to operate the wire service
il connection with the mail service.
Postmaster General Burleson is rec
ommending in his forthcoming report
that the federal government operate
the lines as an adjunct Of the postal
system The success Of the parcel
post will be pointed out by the head
Of the postoffice department, to prove
the practicability Of the proposal
When Postmaster General Hitch
cock made similar recommendation
some few years ago, it met the empha-
tic disapproval of President Taft.
Although the president did not censurel
him, Hitchcock was condemned by the
leading politicians of both big parties.
In contrast to that reception, it is said
that President Wilson will endorse the
plans to be suggested by Mr. Burleson-
Ii the matter reaches Congress with
the presidents o. K, a long and birrer
battle is bound to ensue. and it is
doubtful whether an appropriation for
the purpose could be put through by
the administration
Because Of the shortness of he com
ing session, and of the rush to put
through the river and harbor bill and
other urgent measures that have been
held over, it is not probable that any
comprehensive plans to acquire the
wires will be considered before next
March.
Postmaster-General Burleson Is ex-
pected to open his fight for general
telegraph and telephone service for
his department with a recommends
ton to congress to make an immedi-
ate appropriation for government
cable service to Porto Rico and tele-
graph service to Alaska. With sue
,ess along this line he will extend his
10 include the wire serv-
ce throughout the United States, and
"A
his will involve the necessity of gov
srnment purchase Of the telegraph
nd long distance telephone systems
