SEEKS REVISION
OF BANK LAWS
Topeka. Kas. July 31 MV-A sur
vey looking toward "simplification
and improvement" of federal bank
ing laws was projected by Rep. Jonn
B. Hollister. republican of Ohio, to
oay as a possibility if Governor Alt
M. Landon wins the presidency.
Hollister, the ranking member of
the house banking committee, con
ferred twice with Landon yesterday
as the republican candidate put fin
ishing touches on the 3500-word ad
dress in which he will accept the
nomination Thursday night. At the
conclusion of the talks on banking
and currency, Hollister said in a
statement:
I was particularly Interested to
talk over with him the matter of a
non-partisan commission 'of experts
on banking to begin as soon as pos
sible a basic study of all our federal
banking laws with a view to their
simplification and Improvement.
The operation of our national
banks, of the federal reserve sys
tem and of the federal deposit In
surance corporation are closely inter-related,
but frequently laws go
verning one of these establishments
are passed without proper consider
ation of their effect on others, lead
ing to conflicts and ambiguities. In
addition, experience has shown us
that there are many waya in which
banking may be improved by addi
tional legislation.
"I found Governor Landon to be
very well Informed on all these (fi
nancial) subjects." Hollister said,
"not only with respect to their leg
islative history but in their bearing
on our present national problem."
CHINESE FINANCES
TO BE REFORMED
Shanghai, July 21 T A reforma
tion of South China's fiscal structure
was the immediate concern today of

cials. The national government confirm
ed the appointment ot T. L. Soong,
brother of famed T. V. Soong, presi
dent of the Bank of China, as fi
nance commissioner of Kwangtung
province, of which Canton is capital.
He was charged with the task of
lightening Kwangtung taxes and
bringing . the provincial- - linanciai
program within the national frame
work. -
Finance spokesmen said successful
control over Kwangtung would not
only benefit -provincials but also
would increase national revenues
since the outgoing Chan Chal-Tong
regime condoned evasion of customs
duties, especially on foreign oils SM
automobiles.
