How aver, recent changes In our banking laws, both Federal and State, have brought about a condition which con clusively demonstrates that this pro vision is now obsolete and lis reten tion can no longer be considered Justifiable. Based upon my experience as a banker and liquidator, I have no hes ltation in urging the approval ol this amendment, Signed) MARK SKINNER, Superintendent of Banks. Th a. Oregon Legislature, In 1937, recognl ilng The Injustice now operating against the 28 state-chartered banks affected by this law ordered that a constitutional amendment be submitted to the people ol Oregon to correct this condition by eliminating the Double Liability of Stockholders In Oregon State Banks. FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION WASHINGTON Inasmuch aa more than 98 of the depositors In Insured banks are full? Insured against loss by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, re peal of double liability will not affect their Interests adversely. Double lia bility of stockholders In most national banks has been eliminated. Passage of the proposed amendment to the Constitution of Oregon will put stock holders of stste banks )n Oregon on a par with stockholders of national banks, thus avoiding discrimination. (Signed) LEO T. CROWLEY, Chairman. By voting for this amendment the Double Liability provision of the Oregon State Law will be eliminated thus placing all Stste Banks In Oregon cn an equal basis and, tn so far as liability Is concerned, on the same basil ai all National Banks In the United Slates.
