Banking Bill Is Redrafted For Senate Passage
Washington July 2 The administration banking bill rewritten along more conservative lines heads to the Senate. It creates an independent reserve board of seven members with the secretary of the treasury and comptroller of the currency removed as ex officio members in 90 days. Glass lauds the measure as a dam sight better than the house version and Morgenthau backs the plan though resignations follow in three months. The bill would relax, not remove, prohibitions on banks engaging in both security and deposit business.
