TAFT AND 4 CREDIT CURRENCY.
Trades Associations Try to Put Him on
Record as FayorinS 1t.

WASHINGTON June O.-Secretary Taft
listened for an hour to-day to committees
from the Merchants Association of New
York and the Trades League of Philadelphia
in favor Of credit currency. The visitors
told the Secretary that MS the prospective
nominee Of the Republican party he should
use his influence to have the platform
adopted at Chicago declare in favor of
sound financial system and to pledge the
party to thorough revision Of the cur
rency laws.
The Secretary told them that he could
not speak for the platform committee, but
advised them to present the matter to the
committee on resolutions at Chicago
A memorial presented rccites that after
six months Of investigation and after con-
sultation and correspondence with more
than 800 commercial organizations through
out the United States unanimity of opinion
against bond secured currency and in
favor of the principle of credit currency
was found to exist. Resolutions Of the two
associations condemn the Aldrich- -Vreeland
currency law.
The committees thereupon urge rpon the
platform committees of both parties the
following planks:
First--weYpledge ourselves to establish
such financial system as will protect the
United States Treasury against the danger
Of assault and the peril of reputation. the
Government being limited to its constitu-
tional funot ions of the coinage of money
and regulating the value thereof and OF the
collecting and disbursing of its revenues
Second-We pledge ourselves to establish
q true credit currency system which will
enable the farmer, the producer. the manu-
facturer and the merchant TO convert through
the agency OF the banks their commodities
into currency redeemable by the banks in
ood coin
