George W Woods told an Omaha Elks Club dinner that the state banking department will force banks to tighten controls. Measures include revoking licenses of unreliable bankers, closer collateral supervision, and compelling stockholders to cover slow paper losses. He said insolvency drift is ended and urged publishing bank failure records alongside sacrifices by responsible officers to restore confidence. He defended former supervisors and denied widespread market rumors, asserting Nebraska’s banking system is sound.
