Three proposed amendments lo existing taws effecting the Jurisdiction of the banking department are assuming definite form, according to announcement Saturday byr. Seth Pixton. state bank Commta-slrneBills covering the subjecte trill be completed next week and Introduced In the legislature. One would bring under more immediate regulation the small loan companies which have succeeded In evading the taw In the past by taking out pawnbrokers license with the cities and operating aa small loan companies. Mr. Pixton declared. Reports have been made to the department that some companies which have been evading- - the law by this means have been charging as high as It per cent interest per -month even though collateral curity la taken to guarantee repay, ment of the loan. The present taw regulating the making of small loans exempts licensed and bonded regularly pawnbrokers together with banks, savings snd trust associations, building and loan organizations and others. Mr. Pixton would aunend the law to strike out the exemption of pawnbrokers thus bringing them under the act aa well. A second change .which' Is assuming form Is the Industrial loan act. Under tbo present taw aucit companies may exact exorbitant ratee of Interest. The change proposed would limit tha interest charge to 1 per cent per month and would allow the companies to require monthly Installments with or without an a'lowanco of Interest on such Installments. Tha new building and loon act Is being drafted by the banking department and the state building and loan league ta and will be coreelricd within a abort time. The nevUti'l contemplates repeal of the taw enacted two yean ago, but would Incorporate in the proposed new taw practically every regulatory feature contained ta that now tha statute books with some needed additions, Mr. Pixton said. Control measure., .. treated against tha wild horses oa tba range would ho Inaugurated If the legislature eete favorably on bill being prepared by Senator W. D. Candland of Sanpete county which will ho Introduced next week. The bill contemplate an extensive campaign tq seduce the growing competition of wild horses ta domestic stock on tbo open range. Senator Candland proposes to require tho state ftah and pm department to launch the cam- palgas for slaughtering tha wid herds sad would appropriate $10.-0from tho general funds fortho purpose of meeting the expense of tho campaign. The carcasses would be turned over ta the ftah and game department ta be used for fish food. A suitable bill Is now being prepared by Mr. Candland and J. R. Robinson, assistant ta Harvey H. Cluff. attorney general. , D. H. Madsen, state fish and the game commissioner, regard bill as a piece of progressive leg- - , an ta economic talatlon. It entirely proposal in his opinion and could well be followed out. If the bill paaoea It to proposed to employ a number of professional hunters ta slaughter tha wild horses which are said to constitute a menace ta the livestock aod tho sheep industry. Thousands of now wild horses are said to bo state tho will at through ranging consuming valuable forage. la certain sections the local stockmen bavs been handling t some control measures and hava slaughtered a great number of tho animals but ta data there has been no concerted effort. Deputies now employed by tha department would supervise the field operation of th hunter and a considerable part of the horses can be salvaged for fish food as th blit proposes, Mr. Madsen declared. The tilde could probably be disposed of f or- - auff iclent ta pay tho costs of skinning th animals and the department can make good os of the saddle, hind quarters; the heart and liver of ihe horse for feeding the stork of domeetlo trout used for raising trout eggs at the several hatcheries. Mr. Madsen declared that th balance of the carcasses could bo used by tnroing It over ta the department of agriculture for baits In th predatory animal campaigns being waged by tbe federal biological survey and the stats department ef agriculture In VJTKCorihca. cTpieTsvo CHARM.'1 Anti-Smoki- ng Rule of House Is Rigid .House.
