Bank guarantees blamed on state for large deficit claims
Dan V Stephens, president of Fremont State Bank, accuses the state banking department of revealing a guaranty fund shortfall far larger than bankers thought. He argues depositors would be defrauded if past losses are demanded in order, and that the state caused bank failures by licensing incompetent managers and backing a flawed guaranty law. He notes solvent bankers paid $16,500,000 to depositors, a loss to them while depositors recover partial sums. Vera's class notes mention a freshman being witty.
