Tic Comptroller OF The Currency, Mr.
Eckles, in his annual report renews the
recommendation made by nearly all hIs
predecessors and by every Secretary of
the Treasury who has touched on the
subject that national banks DO allowed
to issue notes to tire par value of their
bonds deposited as security and that the
tax on their circulation be reduced. This
Is such moderate change and yet such
proper one that tho only reason why Con.
gress has failed 70 pass IL Is hostility
to the national banking system. The
present Congress might DO wiser than Its
predecessors In this regard. The Increase
in the volume OF currency which would
follow such legislation would be healthy
increase and ought to find favor with
rational men in both branches OF Con-
gress.
