HARTFORD. April i.——The banking
bill was made the order of the day at
noon by Speaker Titson in the House
RepresentatiVe Gunn at once asked
perIIIlslion to withdraw two amend
meats he had ordered to this bill for
the purpose of having the original bill
rocommitted to the committee on
,.bankn He asked Representative
Banks the House chairman to with-
draw the amendment. Stir. Guun ex-
plaining that he wanted this action
taken after consultation with mom
hers and banking men. Representa-
tiIe Hooker Ielused to withdraw the
amendments as he said the commit-
,tee did not want the bill again huIIng
giIcII it carci‘al attention. Represen-
tatiIc Hooker said new man on the
committee wanted a mic tight here
'aad now. lie made an explanation of
bill. saving it ditl not come from a
man who was suffering from brain
storm as had been intimated. it came
from the banking commissioners who
said the bill ought to become a law.
The governor had recommended it for
the same reason. The question is. How
does it happen we. have two kinds
of savings banks? For 100 years the
state has been granting ,charters for
mutual banks and no stockholder ever
made a dollar in a mutual savings
bank, for they are operated for the
benefit of the. depositors. officers sim-
ply getting their salaries. The stock
saIings banks. iIoWeIer. ate operated
for stockholders. not for depositors.
They are given charters to do so.
They me not giIeII the tight to do
a banking business but firm haIe
permrted their charters to do so. i‘lte
attorneys for the trust. companies who
. appeared before tlIIII committee all said
that it was only necessary to insert
the. words "may receive deposits" in
their charters. Mutual savings banks
are. the glory of Connecticut and this
law says to a trust company. “as long
as you are here you can livc and do
business and we won't take the name
of savings bank from you. but if you
do II saIing's hank business you must
do it as a mutual savings bank does
it." The savings department of a
company may receive any
amount on deposit hut mutual com-
panics are limited to 31.000. The stock
company can invest anywhere they
see ilt, even if it he a sacred trust.
Three stock companies have u capi-
tal of $50,000 with deposits of a
million and, a half, with deposits
gorwing. The capital remains the
same. in case of failure the 850.0%
does not amount to Inuch. This bill
is intended to safeguard those depos
its.
Representative ,iiooltcr referred to
banking lawn.
saying that any old thing went in
Rhode Island. but the other New ling-
land states had good laws.
Representative Lattimer in reply at-
tacked Representative Hooker‘s argu-
ment. and further debate was indulg-
ed III by Representative (luau and
Representative Burns. of Greenwich.
both of whom favored reconInIitmeIIt.
This action was taken. The attempt
to reopen debate on' the eight hour
bill failed. as it was then tziltl. and
adjournment was taken.

to buying Poultry Feeds and especially for little, chieltsl'you must be .
familiar with the food, stuffs on sale because them is a tendency on the
part of all millers to work off grain that is too poor to sell readily whim

This yeaI l have decided to make a little chick feed. composed of choice
grains anti seeds. carefully selected and perfectly granulated and screen-
