1t was Commissioner Lawrence's
contention that the right of banks
to loan an collateral should be limit
ed so that only small percentage
of such loans could be made on COL

not purchase.

passed statutes giving them legal

Commissioner Lawrence then pre-
sented eleven investment recommen-

bonds of the Dominion of Canada; :
of railroad equipment obligations
when there is a margin of at least
twenty per cent between the amount
outstanding and the cost of standard
equipment by which it is secured !;
and admission of receivers certifi-
Gates under proper safeguards.
A negative recommendation of
broad scope was that to remove
from the list of eligible securities,
all stocks or to limit the amount
held to very small proportion of
the deposits.
The commissioner submitted with
out recommendation the problem as
to the best method by which banks
can know the legal status Of a par

ability of some statuatory regulation

keeping securities of customers.

8. Defining the legal duties and re-

committee on Banks and Banking.
and a number of others interested
in the subject.

Hon. Fred 0. Easton Of Rumford.
and Hon. Harold Murchie of Calais
Commissioner Lawrence advocated
increasing the minimum number of
savings banks trustees. now fixed at
five. to seven or nine. He favored
a change in the statue establishing
the method of imposing taxes on
savings deposits by eliminating the
deductions and substituting for rate
Of one-half OF one per cent rate of
one fourth of one per cent. which
would yield practically the same
revenue.
He recommended that whenever
the court orders the liquidation of
an insolvent institution, the liquid
alton OF it's affairs should be in
trusted to the department, as is now
