New Ruling To

materially profited by the decis.
ion Of the state bank commison
and public examiner that here.
after state banks must deposit
50 per cent of their reserve with
other state banks in this state,
is the announcement made in
financial circles.
Heretofore it has been the
custom of state banks in South
Dakota to send from Is to 25
per cent of their reserve to
banks in Sioux City and Mime.
arolis. These banks would in
turn send a large per cent of
their reserve to Chicago and
from Chicago the trend of money
was towards the clearing house
/ of America. Wall street.
This departure of S11, 800, 600
annually from South Dakota,
made it difficult for South Dako-
tans to draw money on loans,
but under the new order of
things this money which has
been going out of the state. will
now be deposited with banks in
the larger cities of South Da-
kota Sioux Falls, Aberdeen,
Mitchell, Huron. Lead and other
cities of like size.
This. it is stated, will make
money easier to secure, and will
tend to better financial condi-
tons throughout the state.
When this action of the state
examiner and commission was
first announced, it was stated
that it was retaliation on the
recent action of the comptrollt :
of Currency at Washington This
is not true, but is the working
out of the new guaranty law
passed bv the last legislature.
By keeping the money of the
state where it is under the sup
ervision of the state banking
department, losses to South Da-
kota depositors will be reduced
to the minimum,
1t is said that IS, 500, 600 will
remain in this state.
