RFC LAYS PLANS
To BUY CLOSED
BANK ASSETS
By EUGENE A. KELLY

by EUOENE A. NELLY
Negotiations are under way for
the outright purchase by the Re
construction Finance Corporation
of assets held by scores of closed
banks throughout the country,
j. F. T. O'Connor. Comptroller Of
the Currency, disclosed today.
No definite action has yet been
taken, Mr.. O'Connor said, but
plans for the RFC-purchase pro-
gram are being discussed by Of
ficials of the RFC and members
Of the Comptroller's office.
Under Steagall Act
The RFC is authorized to pur-
chase the assets of closed banks
under terms of what is generally
referred to as the Steagall amend
ment, which was passed in the
last session of Congress. This
amendment was vigorously fought
for by Representative Clarence j.
Mcleod CR) of Michigan, and
was sponsored by The Washing
ton Times.
The closed banks, the purchase
Of whose assets is being consid-
cred, are only those which have
frozen assets of about 100000
each. Closed banks holding as
sets in excess of this amount are
not being considered, Mr.. O'Con'
nor explained. Treasury officials
did not state how many banks
have assets of only about $4,000,
but there were indications that
the number would be well above
100.
No ID. C. Bank In List
The Steagall amendment au-
thorizes the RFC to purchase the
assets of banks that failed be-
tween December, 1929, and jan
uary /, 1884. Any bank which
failed before or after that period
is not eligible for the purchase
plan.
No Washington closed bank is
involved in the negotiations under
way since the lowest amount of
money tied up in defunct insti-
buttons here is far in excess of
$4,000.
There were rumors that the
RFC was considering purchasing
the assets of the Chevy Chase
Savings Bank, but Mr.. O'Connor
stated that no such plan is being
considered.
In the coming session Of Con-
gress, Mr.. Mcleod will introduce
o bill which, if passed, will make
mandatory the present Steagall
amendment permitting the RFC
to purchase the assets of closed
banks.

rs Of Shakespeare's plays have

real purpose is to make money.
The Shakespearean plays to
which Representative Beck refers
would not draw a corporals S

they are to be performed the
place for them is the Folger
