THE eICACO EAGLE,
CHICAGO BANKERS
OBJECT TO PLAN

Chicago bankers oppose the pro-
posed ordinance now before the coun.
Gil for city supervision of private
banks.
The reasons advanced against the
passage of the ordinance are as fol.
lows
1. Unprecedented.
2. Questionable constitutionality.
8. Would provide another excuse
for blocking proposed state legisla.
ton.
4. Would not provide for regulation
of downstate private banks.
5. Very little or no time would be
gained IL legislature does act this ses.
sion.
6. Incorporation under the banking
laws of this state is essential to sue.

capital and liability.
(b)-In order to provide double liza.

(c)-In order to distribute RESPONSE.

(d)-In order to permit satisfactory
auditing.
(e)-1n order to provide for proper

pal.
(g)--In order to separate bank in
vestments from those of principal.
Z. Confusion of public over still an
other class of bank created by ordi
nance.
s. Certainty Of public mistakine
license by the city for Endorsement,
of the city.
9. Necessity of private banks hav
ing to adjust their affairs twice when
state enacts law.
10. Might increase number Of pri
vate bank failures II not given ample
time to convert assets in order that
they might comply.
II. City probably would not de
