Banking law changes eyed by Comptroller in forthcoming report
A Woabington dispatch says Comptroller of the Currency Fekela Wi will, in his next report, urge amendments to national banking laws. Key proposals include allowing issuance of certificates up to par value of deposited bonds and possibly repealing the small city bank organization provision requiring $12,005 in bonds. Many recently failed banks were formed under that rule. The National Bank of Kansas City suspended payments, with liabilities between 460,000 and 1,000,000, as deposits dwindled amid nationwide financial strain.
