Many Ran Behind Hid observation of the banks of the state showed, Semingson sa ning behind, their income not being sufficient to meet their expenses be- joause they lacked spfficient volume of business to caré for their over- jhead expenses, Every bank must ;have business quarters, light, heat nd stationery and a cashier, Sem- ingson pointed out. Nearly every jone must have an assistant to the cashier. When the profits of the bank fail to meet these expenses it} means that the bank begins to fade and that it will be only a matter of time until it will be forced to close. By spreading their overhead over a! jlarger volume of business larger banks escape much of this difficulty, Semingson sces the new banking laws passgd at the last session of pthe legislature as a further aid in ‘the movement for more substantial banks.~ One law: requires the bui ing up of larger surpluses, safeguard ing depositors and insuring the s' j bility of the institution, in times of | stres: Another law puts ‘the issu- nee of charters for new banks in he hand: of the state banking board. This, Semingson believes, will result prevention of over expunsion,! event of a period of general y when funds are av: ble jaunch new banking enterprises. e general policy in recent years, tid, has been to discourage the ance of new bank charters, Strengthens Banks “The combined resourecs of two or more banks will make stronger in-; stitutions operating at less expense | than the — institutions separately ibly hope to do,” Semingson said. “The citizens | of any banking community ove it to‘ themselves and to the business and | farming interests of the community | generally to get squarely behind any ; movement of this kind and help make |their banking institutions into | stronger and better institutions i ‘ order that van may adequatel:; of the community.’ of the commitice which j has aided in promoting the cunsoli- | dation policy are C.
