Vol. 11 No. 44 Des M oines, Iowa February 21,1983 Dole, Regan Aim Pressure at Banks REM ENDOUS pressure was be ing exerted late last week by Sen. Dole and Treasury Secretary Donald Regan against the commer cial banking industry by threaten ing them with increased taxes on banks if they don’t quit stirring up the public in the industry’s effort to have withholding on interest and dividends repealed. These voiced threats served only to anger par ticipants in the A B A ’s Leadership Banking Conference who were meet ing late last week at the H yatt Regency H otel in Washington, D.C. A t press time, those registrants re mained firm in their resolve to work for repeal of the withholding law. In dications were that their efforts now would be directed more to a con certed shift to trying to get Sen. Dole and Secretary Regan to under stand banking’s position, rather than being adamantly opposed just because the administration feels they should be the tax collectors. 1RS estimates the revenues from 10% withholding on interest and dividends will recoup about $8 billion a year on dividend and in terest income lost for non-reporting. A B A maintains that reporting and matching of 1099s, authorized for 1RS by Congress, and which now in cludes jumbo CDs, would leave only $1.5 billion estimated that is not paid up front. To collect that re maining amount, the withholding T bill has saddled financial institu tions and dividend paying firms with the burden of becoming tax col lectors. The A B A estimates this cost for banking would exceed the $1.5 billion that would be collected and is penalizing banks. A B A says the tradeoff of use of float of these funds would not cover such cost, and recognizes that with in a short time, a “ public outcry” by later Congressional or government personnel would demand that such “ free” money be returned to the government. □ Another “ Open Letter” Sen. Charles Grassley 232 Russell Senate Office Building Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Senator Grassley: Your time is valuable and so is mine, so I ’ll be direct. I have served the reporting of hanking news in Iowa and the nation for more than 37 years and seldom, if ever, have I seen in dustry leaders as concerned as they are about the provisions of withholding of 10% on interest and dividends. In an effort to ex ercise their right to protest through the system the taxation to which they object, they are now being threatened vindictively by Senator Dole and Treasury Secretary Regan with additional bank taxation if they exercise that right. W hat kind of leadership is that? I damn near lost my life 38 years ago this month fighting a war to make sure that kind of system could not be imposed on the free world—and now here you people in Washington are pursuing that course! I can’t believe it. Opposition, yes; but threats and vindictiveness, never! When it all washes out, it appears Trea sury and IR S stand to pick up about $1.5 billion additional that might not be obtained with honest reporting. You people in Con gress have authorized reporting-and-matching but that hasn’t even been tried. Since there is so much debate about who is right, I offer you this suggestion. You and the Iowa delegation to Congress should come back home, spend two days in whichever banks you choose around the state, visit with the executive officers and find out how much it is costing them to comply with this with holding bill, and the unbelievably compli cated steps they’ll have to follow—under con stant threat of additional penalties “ for failure to comply,’’ etc. That’s all I ask. Come back here your selves—or select your own C P A firm and get such a report firsthand. I think you owe that to the constituents here at home. IR S wants bankers to become whistleblowers, but wants the bankers to buy their own whistle and pay for the tickets. More than 400 bankers from all over the nation are meeting now at the Hyatt Regen cy Hotel there in Washington. I f you truly care about what concerned Iowans think about a bill that will cost them thousands of dollars to comply with, perhaps you may wish to take the time to contact them now or invite them to your office to discuss this mat ter. If you want help finding some banks to visit, they will give you the list of the more than 600 Iowa banks from which you can select. I will appreciate a reply regarding this sug gestion and your position. I f it’s a form let ter, please save the postage.

Minnesota News A t 7:10 p.m., February 9, 1983, Commissioner o f Banks John D. Chisholm closed the State Bank of Baraum, Baraum, and appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Cor poration (FD IC) as receiver. Mr. Chisholm’s statement on the closing said: “ The State Bank of Barnum was chartered as a state bank by the State of Minnesota and opened for business on M ay 6,1940. A t the end of December 31,1982, the bank’s de posits totaled $13,056,000. “ The Commissioner indicated the problems in the bank which led to its closing were the result o f gross mis management and were not related to current economic conditions. The bank, rather than relying on local deposits and loans, went into the open market and purchased out-ofstate brokered funds and made sub stantial investments in loans se cured by time-share mortgages. These mortgages were of question able value at the time of purchase and subsequent failure by the seller/servicer to remit payments as agreed has resulted in a substantial loss to the bank contributing to an impairment of its capital and to the determination that it is unsafe and inexpedient for it to continue busi ness.” * * * O M AH A: The executive committee of First National Bank has announced a corporate reorganization and a series of executive and management promotions.
