B—8 CHANGES INDORSED INF. D.. . RATES Senate Committee Reports Amendments_to Adjust Insurance Levies. By the Associated Press. Amendments to the omnibus bank- ing bill making the big city banks pay a larger assessment for deposit insurance and reducing the levy on small banks were approved by the House Banking Committee yesterday. This includes an assessment rate on total deposits instead of on a small fractional part as insured deposits. Leo T. Crowley, chairman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., sug- gested part of these amendments and opposed others. As the law now stands, a bank which has a $100,000 deposit may, under certain conditions, join the F. D. I. C. and get $5,000 of that deposit insured. However, the bank pays only one-half of 1 per cent on the $5,000 for the insurance. The Banking Committee yesterday voted to make the assessment annual and mandatory, to fix it at one-eighth of 1 per cent and to make it cover all deposits. Under this change a bank with a $10,000 deposit would pay one-eighth of 1 per cent of the $10,000; a bank with a $5,000 deposit would likewise pay the same percentage. But small-town and rural banks have deposits of much lower average than some big city institutions. They have had to pay the insurance pre- mium on virtually all their deposits. A big city bank with a $500,000 de- posit paid the assessment only on the first $5,000 of that deposit; it now will pay the assessment on the whole $500,000.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 11.—Award by an arbitration board of increased wages to seamen involved in last ~wide marine strike y still raging today on the month-long tanker strike, Announcement of the award last night was almost coincident with new charges hurled by employers that the attitude of unions involved in the coast-wide tanker strike “echoes the formula of gangsterland. From the strikers’ side came the announcement of the San Francisco council of marine crafts, representing some 15,000 workers, that it had voted support of the striking tanker sailors.
