BANK LAW REPEAL PROBABLE.
Institutions Will Havs 10 Carry

Institutions Will Havs 70 Carry
Their Part Of Taxation.
Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Aug. 3.--It Is now re-
garded us a foregone conclusion
among state officials who have to
do with the collection OF state taxes
that the law passed by the Thirty
eighth general assembly, permitting
banks to deduct their holdings Of
liberty bonds from their capital
stock In giving in their property for
assessment. will be repealed this
coming winter. It was one OF the
issues which figured In the selection
of the republican nominees for gov
ernor and lieutenant governor and
was responsible for arousinE farm
bureau men and farmers in opposi-
ton to any candidate whom they
thought was In any way connected
with Its passage.
There IRE banks over the state
which have refused to take advan-
tage OF tllia law, taking the position
that they would prefer to pay their
full share OF meeting tho cost of run
ming the state and county govern
ments az represented In the taxes
rather than take the advantage
which this law afforded them.
It Is also regarded as practically
assured that there will be no effort
to re-enact the law which gives to
the state banking superintendent au-
thority to say whether or not = new
bank shall be started In COM
minity and withhold the granting of
a charter to q bank II he 20 desires.
This law was passed on the argu-
naent that unfrtendly Germans and
other foreigners who were sore be-
cause Of having had to buy liberty
bonds had been Withdrawing their
money from banks and starting what
was termed spite banks. It pro-
vided that 1t would cease to operate
after this year. Hence 1t will go off
the statute books automatically un-
less re-cnacted. which now seems
improbable.
AS a matter OF fact. code revision,
which the next legislature Is facing,
Is such big task that there Is lit
tie likelihood that any big construc-
tive legislation other than that con-
nected with revision, will be planned.
