RECGARDED UNLIKELY One of Chief Dangers It Would Encourage Bad Banking Practices By RODNEY DUTCHER NEA 3Tervice viriter | WASHINGTON -— As thej new administration and @ancjers wrestle with the complex task of restoring America’s banking sys tem, the demand for a federal guarantee of deposit has hecome intensified and insistent. 3 IF'or years regarded as a, schcme of the wild and wooly radicals de ‘posit guarantee has at last come up for serious consideration at the White House 4&nd in the Treasury building where men who contro!l the countryp imn)iliate destiny have met in 'secret con ference to try to find a way out. Thus the time may come when wvou can put money in the bank with the assurance of getting it back. That would mean the building of a new banking sys tem-—and drastic surgery on the old. But it may not come to pass and if it does the government is sure to impose stringent safe guards, for there are various ob jections to the chief guarantee plans thus far provosed .und hasty, ill-considered action. might only make a bad situation worse. A guarantee covering present deposits seems out of the ques tion. The federal credit could hardly prove adequate because it would be obvious that it couldn’t handle the possible demands for cash and confidence would be lacking. Hence, although there is Some sentiment for a law guaran teeing 50 per cent of present de posits, the more conservative pro ponents would apply the guaran tee only to new deposits. Suca a plan, they sey, would help re store public confidence in banks —even though the public took some loss on its present deposits —and would, in effect, send the banking business off to a new start. i But any such scheme first de mands emergency wprocedure which will carry the country through its present crisis of cash and credit anc then for the pro tection and supervision of the billions of dollars of exitsing de posits now tied up. These are gi gantic tasks, DANGER FORSEEN i One of the chief objections to a deposit guarantee law has been that it would encourage bad bank ing, since all banks coming in un ‘der the provision would be enti tled to equal protection. And now if there is to be a general guar antee it can hardly be effected without -stringent had unprecpd lonted regulation of banking, Pres ident Roosevelt forecast such reg ulation in his inaugural address: “There must be a striet super vision of all banking and credits I;md investments; there must Dbe an end to speculation with other lnooplo's MONeY . wits 2 - With banki® paralyzed in 48 }smtes and government forced to | handle the sijuation, the old ar lf,.rumem that deposit guaranteg would mean complete government control has lost some of its fayrce. That is especially true in the pop lular mind. Chairman Henry B. Steagall of the House Banking and Currency committee says “one hundred million Americans” have been besieging Congress for some such plan as his guarantee meas fure which was passed by the !Ilmx>o but 'buried in the Senate. i INSURANCE FUNDS g JI Many limited forms of deposit | insurance have been proposed and |some senators who object to any ‘geneml guarantee or to the Stea gall bill are willing to consider lsuch a plan for savings deposits. Senator Vandenburg of Michigan ,wauld create an insurance fund in the Federal Reserve System which i would pay any “time depogitor” 75 per cent of his deposit within |3O days of the closing of a bank. The fund would be created by an {annual tax of one-eighth of one per cent on ail time deposits in Federal Reserve meber banks plus desiring to participate. He would would make the savings affected contract deposits rather than de mand deposits.
