BY STAFF CORRESPONDENT. (Special to The Argus.) Springfield, 111., May 18. The house committee on banks and banking yesterday killed the Teel-Searle banking bill which pro vided a state banking board to have supervision of the organization and regulation of state banks. This was accomplished by adopU ing a sub-committee report which recommended certain changes in the present banking laws but did not recognize the banking board feature of the Teel-Searle bill. The report also provides for" a commission to study hanking laws and report back In' 1935.

The vote on adoption of the com mittee report was 23 to 9, as compared to a tie vote of 12 to 12 the previous day. After- considerable discussion, it was decided the tie vote did not dispose, of the sub committee report and a new vote was taken. Representative Clinton Searle, Rock Island, moved to send out for passage the Teel-Searle bill and this was forestalled by calling for a vote on the commltte report which did not recognize the bill in its entirety. The sub-committee report recom mended passage of the Auth bill which requires that any newly or ganized bank must purchase 10 per cent of its capital and surplus in general obligations of the state of Illinois or the United States and deposit them with the state auditor, who shall hold these securities as a liquidation fund. Thereafter, the amount of these securities shall be 10 per cent of the deposits.

Failure to maintain this ratio shall be grounds for the auditor to assume control and liquidate the bank if necessary. The bill provides that the auditor shall be ex-officio receiver and liquidate banks instead of appointing receivers to do so. Toted Out for Passage. Tn lifie with this recommendation, the committee voted jthis measure out for passage. On the motion of Representative Sol Roderick, a sub-committee was provided, to draft into one bill the other recommendations made to the entire committee by the report of the previous smaller body.

The report endorses the provisions of a bill- offered by Representative Searle to provide for organization of mutual savings banks. The drawback of such a course from the standpoint of Mr, Searle is that with the session drawing late, it may not be possible to gain action on a measure that would be introduced as late as next week. Representative Searle has a separate bill pending in committee on the subject of mutual savings banks, but the committee did not act to send it out on the floor. Committee Is Upheld. Today the house declined to support a move by Representative Searle to take the Teel-Searle bill from committee and place it on the house calendar.

The vote was 43 to 65 on the Searle motion. Floor Leader Thomas P. Sinnett defended State Auditor Edward J. Barrett In a speech against the Searle motion Mr. Scarlo assailed the auditor, and Representative Harry M.

McCaskrin of Rock Island also spoke against the motion and voted against it. The debate was heated. SENSATIONAL NEWS THEME OF PICTURE Story on Fort Screen About Tabloid Paper Is Interesting. BY RICHARD E. JEASES.
