tended to ba the 6nal step towards an abso.
lutte gold standard in the United States and
to suppress every effort at BIZ metallism.
Tho minority says that to secure the support
of national banks, tho bill allows them
gratuitiously to inorease their present
circulation about $l5.Ooo.OOO, and also
gives them II bonua or present
of $G75 600 per year. by reducing the circu-
lat!on tax. The report attacks the state
ment of facts given by the majority as the
ground for its action and predicts the re.
peal of the policy will produce widespread
ruin. Figures are quoted to disprove the
statemsnt that the country is drifting to a

cidsd to dstach the colonies from the ma

II Ribot should fail to explain to the sat-
