pose Measure to Regulate
Affairs of Institutions

Administration Of closed banks
was discussed in detail by the house
committee on banks and banking,
meeting last night.
Fred Cathro of the Bank of North
Dakota appeared before the commit
tee to offer "A bill drawn up by him
which would cover in detail the pro-
cedurc to be gone through in operat-
ing receiverships, liquidating or re-
organizing closed banks.

resentative H. +. SWEET, Kidder
county, and W. A. Thatcher, Botti-
neau county, which is drawn along
similar lines, was also up for con-
sideration before the committee.

be incorporated with this bill in the
form Of an amendment.
Its Major Items
The major purposes OF Cathro's s
pronosed bill, as he outlined it, are !:

inal jurisdiction Of the insolvency

A list. of all closed state banks
would be certified to the attorney
general by the state bank examiner
and the attorney general would in
stitute proceedings to declare them
insoivent. Fifteen days would be
given the defendant bank to reply to
the action.
A court commissioner would be ap-
pointed by the supreme court to over
see the actions. He would have the
same power as a district court judge
in such cases, subject to review by
the supreme court.
A receiver would be appointed by
the court to take charge Of the closed
banks affairs.
If the supreme court decided its
original jurisdiction did not extend
Ito these banking matters, cases would
be transferred to the Burleigh county
district court.
If Is depositors Of a closed bank
wish to reopen the bank and obtain
signatures of 80 per cent Of the de-
pOsitors approving their proposed
plan, they would be allowed time in
which to follow out their. plan.
II reorganization plan were de-
cided upon the same procedure would

bank they would be required to se-
cure 80 per cent Of the signatures of
those concerned. A liquidating COM
mittee Of three, who might or might

for it's introduction that the hail
