America. “The new banking law is valuable because it brings our, national bank_ ins regulations up to the minute,” Giannini said, ‘It supersedes egislation that was antiquated—de‘igned for a periof of banking development which is now entirely a hing of the past. : “The deposit guarantee feature 1as always seemed to me unnecessary if banks are operated properly inder adequate supervision, but it ig justifiable on this ground, if on 2o other: It will bring about a uniied national bankine system, an acsom plishment which could never successful had Congress attempted it in the ordinary course of events .confronted with the prejudices of the ’States Rights’ adher“SEE n governmental guarantee of deposits had: to come, this -was the Most propitious time in the history of the country, with everything at bottom and the minimum number of banks in operation. The banks which are open, those which could pass muster during a period of deflated values, surely will be stronger as values advance, and consequently the deposit insurance risk is less at this ime it may ever be again. : “The Glass-Steagall Bill gives gov-ernmental endorsement to branch banking, which the Bank of America has successfully pioneered in California. In my opinion it is the forerunner of legislation which eventually will extend branch banking to a nationwide scale _,as is the case in. _ all other countries. “One significant feature of thethe Bill which should not be overlooked is the provision that minority stockholders of a national bank have: the right to elect representatives on the board of the institution in proportion to the stock they hold, through cumulative voting privileges. “The sections of the Bill dealing with operations of holding companies and security affiliates offer no obStacles to the operation of Transamerican Corporation ‘and com pliance ‘with theterms of the new legislation can be effected without difficulty.
