16 MARYLAND MANUAL.

It is part of the duty of the Bank Commissioner to supervise the
formation of new banking institutions; to see that all requirements of
the law have been complied with, and to issue his certificate authoriz-
ing them to commence business.
It is the further duty of the Bank Commissioner to pass upon all
amendments to charters, and all consolidations and voluntary liquida-
tions. On the tenth of February in each year the Bank Commissioner
is required to make a report to the Governor, covering the operations
of his office.
The 1918 session of the General Assembly passed what is known as
the Uniform Small Loan Law. This provides that all persons co-
partnerships or corporations engaged in the business of making loans
in the amount of $300 or less and who charge a greater rate of interest
than six per cent., shall obtain a license from the Bank Commissioner.
This act further provides for the regulation and supervision of such
concerns by the Bank Commissioner.
The 1929 session of the General Assembly passed what is known
as the Credit Union Law. This law provides that any seven or more
persons, residents of this State, may apply to the Bank Commissioner
for permission to organize a Credit Union.
The 1929 Session of the General Assembly (Chapter 489) passed
a law creating the Banking Board, appointed by the Governor, the
members of which are subject to the call of the Bank Commissioner
to confer and consult with him in matters concerning the business of
banking or banking institutions in the State of Maryland. See infra,
page 14.
