Asbury Park Wins

The Asbnry Park high school girls
basketball team won its first start of
the week Wednesday at the Armory
when they defeated Freehold high
33-4. 1t was late in the first period
before the Asbury forwards got the
range of the loop but they dropped
them with fair degree of regularity
for the remainder of the contest; Free
hold was also regular in their scoring,
which consisted of single foul shot
in each of four periods.
For the Asbury aggregation, the
work of Markus at forward was per-
haps the best. In there for short
period the score four field goals get
ting couple of nice shots and play
ting the bali well from the centers,
Capt. Gutteridge, working with Leh-
ritter, White and Brown gave her us
ual fine exhibition of defensive work
the Asbury guards holding their oppo-
nents scoreless from the floor for the en-
tire period, and committing but two of
the eight fouls called against the shore
entrants, Lehritter, in there for first
half, played the best game she has
ever evidenced getting in to block or
ward Of several of the passes from the
far end OF the court, and making her
return passes accurately to the center
or forward section.
In center court Asbury ST one to
advantage. Loewy outranging her
Opponent but little, placed the tap
consistently and Mara recovered the
ball to start an offensive.
The best game for Freehold was
shown in the center section also, with
Miller and Benton contesting every
inch Of the ground. Both played
whirlwind floor game. snd their pass
ing was failure.

successful banking experience, and
that bank examiners be selected from
those having the requisite QualtAca-
tons
A careful study and survey OF stzte
bank supervision has been made with.
the cooperation of State Bank Com
uissioners and state bankers to bring
out the high lights of successful su-
pervision, and at the same time tnf1-
cate remediable weaknesses, as the
basis for formulating a model code'
Of law dealing with bank supervisory
and also for developing pubic opinions
In favor OF its general adoption.
This survey shows that In forty-one

ally hold Office during their pleas

long Terms Make Rureauerafs
The term of Office was found %
range from two years to six Tm
majority Of recommendation favor g.
five-year term, reasoning that a long
term Of life tenure tended toward,
bureaucracy in Office, while short
term was condemned ON the grounds,
that the Bank Commissioner would
scarcely have time to become thor
oughly conversant with his field OF;
work before the expiration Of his
term of service and the public would
lose the fruits OF his experience. A
five year term is long enough to per-
INIT his rendering useful service
through capitalizing his experience
and then If he is found capable the
chances Of his reappointment would
be strong.
1t was found that duties other than
bank supervision are frequently i'm
posed on the banking department,
ranging from insurance matters TO
irrigation projects and even state
hail insurance. The almost unam-
nous expression of opinion is that the
position of bank commissioner Is q
task Of such outstanding Importance
as to demand that he devote all his
time and attention strictly to prob

Only twenty states require actual
banking experience varying from one
to Eve years.
Powers of Bank Commissioners
In the majority Of states, the Bank
Commissioner Is given more or less
p0wer to approve or deny applica-
tons for charters Of state banks.
Clearly this authority should be e1.
erctsed chiefly with view to supply
ing each community with safe, ade-
Quate banking facilities. Hence the
Importance Of carefully weighing all
factors involved such as the character
and responsibility Of the organizers
and the community's needs for bank
ing facilities. In the very nature of
things no one Is so well qualified to
pass ON charter questions as the Bank
Commissioners. Comments from all
states favor granting the banking de-
partment large If not absolute juriE-
diction in granting bank charters.
A number OF states now confer
more or less complete authority on
the state banking department to act
as receiver IN Hqnidattng failed banks,
usually providing that the Bank Com
missioner mnst file report with the
court for approval. In other states
the court names a receiver and the
Bank Commissioner thereafter has no
Jurisdiction or authority. The almost
unanimous opinion Of bankers and
the Bank Commissioners is that
authority should be placed in the
banking department as It permits the
employment of experienced bank adj
ninistratOrs In winding up the affairs
-o1 a hank, Is more expedient, eco
nomicaI and altogether more satisfac-
eory.
Changes Needed
The consensus as to changes need
ed 10 strengthen the work Of the state
banking departments is summarized
IN the following recommendations:
1. Provide adequate salaries.
q Give Bank Commissioner large dis
.cret1onaxy power In granting charters
and enforcing bank regulations.
q Remove the. Office. from partisan
ssu1ufnatAOn Of the Commissioners by the
I. Provide for a SUFFICIENT number Of
examiners. with adequate pay, and free
their appointment from politics.
s Give the Banking Department full
authority to act as receiver In the case

G Make Bank Commissioners terms
Eve years.
!. Make requirements for Bank Com
missioner eligibility not less tlsan five
years Of successful banking experience
and well recognized executive ability.
Bank supervision, when wisely and
impartiaIly administered. is capable
Of rendering one OF the highest types
Of service q state can give its people.
