Amendments to Indiana Constitution Urged by Financial Officials

The Indiana Department of Financial Institutions urged two amendments to the state constitution to Gov. Paul V. McNutt. They aim to remove double liability for state bank shareholders and to allow state banks to operate beyond 20 years. The report cites modern banking practice and FDIC coverage as reducing the need for such restrictions. It also suggests aligning mortgage terms with federal law and notes competitive disparity with national banks due to Social Security and tax exemptions.
