BANK GUARANTY
LAWEI1J0IIIED
Statute Will Net Be Enforced
OPMSTO BE FILED LATER.
Judges Vandeventer and Munger Grant
Injunction to Restrain New Banking
Board From Putting Act Into Effect
Until Constitutionality of Statute
Passed by Last Session of Legisla
ture Is Decided.
Lincoln, July 1. In the federal court
Judges Vandeventer and Munger
granted an Injunction to restrain the
new state banking board from putting
the guaranty act nto effect. The con
stitutionality ot tho statute will ba
discussed iu opinions to bo filed' later.
The bank deposit guaranty act was
passed by the last session of the legis
lature. It was to become effective
July 2. Governor Shallenberger named
Sam Patterson secretary of the bank
ing board and preparations were made
for carrying out the provisions ot the
law.
Fifty state and two private banks
appealed to the federal court atlegjng
that the act confiscated property with
out due process of law. Attojneys ar
gued the case this week.
The effect of tho order will be to
suspend the operation of the law until
the car.o can finally be disponed of.
When the decision Is finally rendered,
tho losing side, It Is understood, will
carry the case to the supremo court
of the United States, where an effort
may bo mnde to have It combined with
tho suit testing the validity of the
Oklahoma guaranty law.
The state filed a demurrer to tho pe
tition of the plaintiffs asking for the
Injunction. This was done at the re
quest of tho court, when all the law
yers had agreed upon the statement of
facts In the case. The decision was
on tho demurrer.
