HOMESICK GIRL FROM WELLESLEY
 MAY SAIL AWAY
Rosemary Pamela Gliding, IT, Young English Miss, Believed Trying to Ar- range Passage for Home

.n Wellesley, Mass, Nov 17.-(UP) "A homesick London miss, Rose mary Pamela Gliding, IT, was be- lieved to be in New York to-day, trying to arrange passage on an England-bound liner.
 The girl daughter of Herbert c. Gliding, London banker, dis appeared from the home of Pro- lessor Emeritus Hamilton c. Mac Dougall of Wellesley college Sat- urday afternoon after being 8 house guest IA weeks.
 Investigator showed Miss Gild- ing spent Saturday and Sunday nights at the Clinton hotel in Springfield, nearly 100 miles west of here. She checked out at 10:20 a. m. yesterday and went by taxi-cab to Springfield Union station, arriving there about two minutes before a. train left for New York.
 Friends believe she took that train with the idea of sailing from New York to her homeland. A letter received from the girl by the MacDougall family yester- day stated that she was unhappy in this country and wanted to re- turn to London.
 Authorities were somewhat mys- titled over this letetr. It bore the postmark of Boston, Sunday, 12:3O a.m., whereas Miss Gliding had registered at the Springfield hotel Saturday at 6:25 p. m. Whether the letetr was mailed for her by a friend or whether she mailed it just before leaving Bos- ton and 1t was postmarked be- latedly, police were unable to de- termine.
 Professor MacDougall said today he knew of no reason why Miss Gliding should go to Springfield. He was quite sure she had no friends there. He was equally certain that her disappearance in- volved no romance and was due simply to homesickness.
 When the girl reached the Clin- ton hotel Saturday evening she reg istered as Pamela Gliding.
 "She just asked for room and went to it after I assigned her to one," said Room Clerk Daniel Da- ley. "She was alone. She was carrying small overnight bag and was wearing a brown mixture coat and hat to match. She spoke with a distinctly English accent"
 According to hotel attaches, Miss Gliding, appearing lonesome and moody. spent most of Sunday in her room, the lobby or the hotel cafeteria. Yesterday morning, af- ter breakfast, she appeared in the lobby and read newspapers for an hour. Then she checked out and left by taxicab for the station.
 In paying her hotel bill he girl handed the clerk $5 bill and re- ceived some change.
 A report that girl answering Miss Gildings' description was seen at a night club in Hotel Westmin- ister, Boston, last night. was giv- en little credence by police. They were satisfied she had gone to New York with the idea of sailing for home.

NEW MEASURE TO REGULATE BANKS
 IS PRESENTED
N. Y. Legislature May Pass Bill to Let Weak Bank Con sOlidate - Remove Directors Who Break Law

Albany, N Y., Jan 7.-UP)-A recommendation that the legislature pass @ bill to permit @ weak bank to consolidate with a stronger one
 without approval of the stockholders was contained in the annual report
 submitted to-day by Joseph A. Broderiek, state superintendent of banks.
 He suggested the waiving of the clause in the state banking law which requires approval of stock-
 holders for merger and suggested substitution of provision requtr- ing approval of the board of direc- tors, the superintendent of banks and possibly Q supreme court jus- tice.
 Broaderitk said the recent closing of the bank of the United States
 offered an example of how institu-
 tions could benefit by such 2 change.
 The bank was about to merge with
 another one when it was forced to
 close, he declared.
 A recommendation that the bank ing superintendent be vested with
 power to remove any director or
 bank official who consistently violat-
 ed the banking law also was con- tained in the report,
 Private bankers would be re- quired to discontinue accepting de- posits after June l and to liquidate all deposit liabilities by the end of the year if another recommendation in the report Is accepted. Private | banks also would be required to meet with the same restrictions on loans, purchases of securities and total liabilities as now apply to banks and trust companies.
