State Treasurer Hcorge and Auditor Howard. Secretary Royes believe that the law regarding' fllesa association need amending and in .peaking of thli matter says: I will refer you In particular to one ,, revision of the law. that. In my clnlon. ehould receive attention. A the law now ttand the amount of "took held by any ne person U limited to Par value, inasmuch a. the law provides that a loan .-hall not exceed the par value of the Mock held by the borrower, the max -mum loan that cau be made 1. ...

I will not attempt to recommend a Vasis for enlarged privilege in the mat ter of loans, except to state that care hould be taken in extending the limit to which a Ptockholder may Invest, and to call attention to the fact that in en larging the loan limit it will be exceed ingly dangerous to consider ful paid or matured stock aa any part of the basis lipon which the lmit of loans might be rredlcted. There are many minor amendments that might be made to the law that would enable It to work more smoothly. Vut the amendment referred to above elands out clearly as an important one. To ITet Idle Vmmm. "It Is often suggested to thla depart ment by officers of building associations that provision should be made In the law for the investment of idle fund of the associations In state, county and municipal securities. Such suggestions are worthy of consideration, provided the mutuality of building and loan aasociatlons Is fully protected; and here again, a a basis for Investment, full paid and matured stock should be ex cluded for arparent reasons. Care should be takon In any and all amendments that the offered to the law .that mutuality, the bafts of these- as eoclations. be fully protected, and that ,,o errors be permitted to creep in that would make these Institutions a place of refuge for the Idle funds of the idle rich.
