Banking Rules Not Ready Yet
Recovery Administrator Hugh S. Johnson moved to halt a New York bank fee proposal for small accounts and suspended the banking code rule press announcement. He dismissed Deputy Administrator Cary N. Weisiger Jr and extended the filing deadline for fair trade practice rules to February 1 while warning no standard rules have been approved. Johnson said local associations may propose rules but all must be scrutinized and approved by the NRA. He dispatched a telegram to Frank W. Simonds to correct the record and emphasize lack of approval for any standard rules.
