the Italian spinner and Italian banker
should be enough. R. S. Hecht of the
Hibernia Bank and Trust company of
New Orleans, said what worried the
average American banker was the
political risk. He said the American
banker required as much protection

"The vital Importance of the forth

supreme interest of common school

opportunity to present their views.
Name. Are Collected.
"The sub-committee gathered names
from all sources. Its members devot
ed most of their time to the work
during the few days allowed. They
had no authority to do more and did
not undertake to do more than ascer
tain whether the person to whom
thev applied would be willing to ac
eept the nomination if tendered by
the full committee, and made no def
inite commitments to any person
whomsoever prior to the acceptance
f their report.
"The committee carefully consid
ered the suitability of the women who
had been nominated from other
sources. They found both admirably
fitted to the position, but It was
deemed expedient to nominate only
one and some technical question hav
ing risen as to Mrs. Bulana s rest
dence, the choice fell upon Mrs.

BANKING FEES INCREASE
COST OF EXAMINATION'S tJP 30
PER CENT.
Decrease in Assets to Kcdnce Ag
gregate Revenue, Says
State Examiners. .
SALEM, Or., June 14. (Special.)
Although a new law enacted at the
last session of the legislature in
creases the fees for the examination
of banks operating in Oregon approx
imately 30 per cent, the aggregate
to be collected during the first year
under the new statute will not
greatly exceed that received during
the 12 months . preceding May 25 of
this year, when the new act became
effective, according to the statement
made here today by Frank Bramwell,
state superintendent of banks.
Last year, according to Mr. Bram
well, the state banking department
collected a total of J13.866.97 In ex
amination fees, the charges being
based on the assets of the respective
depositories. Were the assets of
these banks to remain the same dur
ing the present year the collections
would be increased several thousand
dollars. The decrease In deposits and
other assets of these banks, how
ever, will reduce the aggregate fees
considerably, according to Mr. Bram
well. Under the new law all banks hav
ing a capital and surplus of J20.0CO
and under must pay to the state
banking department $30 for each ex
amination. The schedule, as it af
fects banks having greater capital
and surplus, follows: Over $20,000
and not over $50,000. $40; over $30.-
000 and not over $75,000, $50; over
$75,600 and not over $100,000, $60;
over $100,000 and not over $150,000,
$70; over $150,000 and not over 200,
000. $S0; over $200,000 and not over
$250,000, $100; over $250,000 and not
over $300,000, $125; over $300,000 and
not over $500,000. $150; over $500,000
and not over $750,000, $200; over
$750,000 and not over $1,500,000, $275;
over $1,500,000. $350.
In addition to this fee, banks shall
pay, at the same time, an amount
equal to one two-hundredths of 1 per
cent of its total net resources, ex
cepting, however, the deposits of the
state, made by the state treasurer,
in the designated active depository of
the state.
