New York, Feb. That the mana gers of the giant corporations would welcome supervision by the federal government. was the opinion express ed today by George W. Perkins of the firm O. J r.

He declared that it had accomplished a great deal of good and is capable of accomplishing more. There is scarce ly a corporation manager today he said. who would not welcome super vision could he but feel that it would come from the national government acting through intelligent. fair minded officials but to be faced with a re- quirement to report to and be super

PENNYPACKER
 PARTICIPANT
In the Pennsylvania Capitol Building Graft
A Whitewashing Letter In Which the Former Gov ernOr COnnived.i

Harrisburg. Pa. Feb. 7.-The trial of Contractor Sandersop and three for mer state officials charged with con- spiracy in furnishing the new capitol, took a sensational turn today when Stanford Lewis, assistant to Architect Huston, declared with dramatic ear nestness that Illusions letter to former Attorney General Carson. explaining his part in the contracts had been prepared at the suggestion of former Governor Pennypacker. former Audit or Snyder one of the defendants, and Carson. He said that it was misiead- ing and intended to be a whitewash Lewis was being subjected to q severe cross examination by Gilbert of the counsel for the defense about the letter and he demanded the right to explain the circumstances under which it was written.
 Rising to his feet. speaking with his right hand raised above his head, Lewis told his story which surprised everyone in the room, except the law yers for the commonwealth. Accord ing to the story. when it caue to Hus- tons turn to write an answer to Car Soiis LtNiS WAS ltitDiloIltu lp GOiut over to Harrisurg by Pennypacker and Snyder. The letter was prepared at conference with those two Officians and the former attorney general. to dOvetail in with the others prepared by the state officers connected with the construction and equipment of the capitol.
 "I have endeavored to explain the conditions under which this letter was written" said Lewis when the judge overruled Gilbert's objection that Lew is had no right to explain the letter He said: Tt was written at a time when l had no knowledge of any in dictments as they had been brought As have already said. we were proud of this building. When I was called on by the telephone by Snyder and the governor to- go over the matter. the only purpose as l understood. was that it was tO hs more or less of white wash to protect the great building which we had been instrumental to q certain extent in getting up. The statements made in the letter are not in accordance with what we did. They were made to fit-1n with letters writ ten by other officials"
 The letter to which Lewis referred was one of series written during November and December. 1906. in re- sponse to the Carson inquiry into the capitol scandal.

He Will Resign His Position In the Post
 Office Department
He is Expected to Make Use of the Experience He Gained Last Summer In the Days of the Third Term Movement.

Washington, Feb. 7.-AnnOuncement was made today of the approaching retirement of Frank H. Hitchcock, first assistant postmaster general Mir. Hitchcock will assume the active management of the campaign of Sec retary Taft. The actual date of his retirement has not been determined definitely. But it will possibly be about February 15. MT. Hitchcock will be succeeded by Dr. Charles P Grandfield, who for more than two years has been chief of the bureau over which MT Hitchcock presided Grandfield has been actively identified with the service for about twenty years.
 Several weeks ago MT Hitchcock was requested by MT. Taft to under take the management of his campaign. The secretary desired to enlist his services. not only because he is wide ly known throughout the country and has valuable experience in campaign work, but because he felt the necessi- ty of having a man in charge of the infinite variety~of details. to whom he could refer questions arising con- stantly. to which he was unable to de- vote the time they seemed to demand.
 It is no secret that Mr Taft, in or der to dispose of the great amount of work incident to the direction of his department, has been obliged for sev- cral weeks practically to exclude him. self from visitors a part of the time.

It Begins With Repeal of the Reserve
 Clauses of National Banking Act
The Automatic Elastic FeaturePrOvisiOn for DepOs- itOrs Guaranty Fund--NO Money te be Loaned for Stock Gambling Purposes.

Washington. Feb. What will be known as the minority currency bill" was introduced today by Representa- tive Williams of Mississippi. the dem ocratic leader, who drew the measure as a result of harmonious conference of the democratic members of the house committee on banking.
 Among its provisions are the follow ing: It repeals all laws permitting national banks to keep three fifths of their reserves in the national banks of reserve cities and similar laws permitz- z ting such deposit of one-half of the reserve amounts; it provides that not less than one-half of the reserves now required to be kept in central reserve cities shall be hereafter held in gold or gold certificates; il does away with the payment of national bank exam iners by the fee system and substitutes salaries of not less than s3000 nor in excess of S5O00 yearly with actual eX- penses; it provides that the total lia bilities of any national bank, exclusive of the liabilities of its members. shall not exceed one tenth of the banks paid in unimpaired capital stock and one-tenth of it's unimpaired surplus funds and that in no event shall the liabilities exceed 90 per cent of the capital stock.
 No national bank shall loan in the aggregate more than seven times the amount of its paid up capital, plus the unimpaired surplus. Any national bank may keep fifty per cent of it's reserve in United States bonds. or bonds Of states or certain municipalities but not more than one-fourth of the total may be kept in state or municipal bonds. The bonds shall be acceptable only of such municipalities as have maintain

The comptroller Of the cur rency immediately after the agreement to accept these provisions shall permit state banks and trust companies to the benefits of the new jaw.
 The elastic currency feature of the bill is contained in the section which provides that these inter- convertible bonds may be deposited in the nearest sub-treasury and the depositing bank shall receive in lieu United States emergency notes subject to taxation redeemable at any time and in legal tender. For the creation of a fund of $l5.000,O 900 for the payment oi depos- itors of failed banks operating under the provisions of this law. there is authorized the imposition of a tax of one-sixteenth of one per cent on the deposits of the banks so operating and whose consent to be so taxed has been obtained. The final section provides that no bank officer shall make a loan for the purpose of stock gambling.
