Chamber and bankers urge vote for new Illinois Banking Act
The Illinois State Chamber of Commerce and the Illinois Bankers Association push voter approval at the November 6 election. They say the act modernizes banking laws since 1919, clarifies auditor powers, introduces court supervision over reorganizations and liquidations, and does not amend the state constitution. The measure appears on the ballot as a presidential race option or a special voting machine tab.
