Albany Banking Reform Passes Legislature with 37 26 Vote
In Albany the Legislature grudgingly approved a banking reform bill to let state banks compete with national institutions. The Senate backed the measure 37 to 26 amid sharp remarks from opponent Samuel L. Greenberg of Brooklyn who called it a nefarious sugar-coated package.
