A Legislative Service Commission report shows 80 percent of banks examined in 1963, 62 percent in 1964, and 70 percent last year. Examiners oversee about 24 banks each with total assets of 227 million, well above the national median. The joint Senate House committee was formed to study banking laws intact for 30 years and consider changes. The issue of banks holding shares in trust was not discussed at this session.
