DIFFER ON CURRENCY REFORM
House and Senate Committees build
., Each Present Bill.

WASHINGTON. Jan. >6.--With the
approach Of the reconvening of con-
gress, there is renewed talk of financial
legislation. The house and senate
committees will both, resume sittings
on the subject and it now looks as if
there might be something of. a rivalry
between the two pmmittees as to
which will present bill.
While the house committee is ap-
parently inclined to what is known as
an asset currency, the senate commit
tee is proceeding on the theory that
only very limited list of securities
should be accepted for the Increased
issue to be provided for in the bill
So far. there has been no agree
in volume of the currency, but the in
clinatiOn of senators seems to be to
permit as large an augmentation as
the conditions of the banks justify
Senator Bailey expressed the opinion
that if the bill suggested by republican
members reasonably approaches the de-
mands of the democrats it will be per-
mitted to pass without extended OPP
position. Senator~.Bailey declined to
give his view of What it's character
should be. ,. -: -.
