SECTION 16. That before any member of a board of control enters upon

the performance of his duties he shall sever all connection as officer

or stockholder with every bank in his commercial zone, and he shall be

ineligible to any position in any bank in his zone during the time for

which he shall have been elected to serve.

COMMENT:--The Board of Control will be composed of a body of men who

are younger than the Bankers' Council; but of the same high order.

They will be men who have the undoubted confidence of the banking

fraternity; men who are to win the prizes in the banking world. This

position will be a sure stepping stone to the best positions; but it

must not be used for that purpose, at least until each man has served

out his time.
