MUST HAVE NEW
MONEY SYSTEM
A. Piatt Andrew, Director Mint,
Discusses Work Of Monetary
Commission.
GREATER STABILITY NEEDED
Statistics Gathered BY Commission
After Thorough Investigation Will
Be Ready in Few Months
Plans Are Being Laid.

Aiken, S. c., April 9.-In order to
into line with the drift of the world
greater flexibility and greater mobil-
| ity in the banking reserves of the
/ country is needed, as well as greater
! concentration in note issue privileges
and greater conference and system in
the control of the country's banking
This was the declaration made to-
day by A. Platt Andrew, Director OF
the Mint in an address before the
South Carolina Bankers Association
on the work of the national monetary
commission.
The commission has not yet begun
to discuss even the general outlines
/ of the recommendations which ulti-
/ mately 1t will have to make to Con-
gress, according TO Mr.. Andrew. No
one today, he added, knows what that
plan will be. He expressed his belief,
however, that the material gathered
by the commission, which will be
available within the next few months,
will constitute IAN encyclopedia of
banking without its equal in the lit
erature Of any other country"
After drawing a comparison of the
banking systems of some of the Eur
opean countries with that of America.
Mr.. Andrew declared he entertained
no Illusion" that the same ends could
be accomplished in this country by
exactly the same means as in any
other country.
1T was on account of the striking
contrast between experiences here in
America with conditions abroad" "
said Mr. Andrew, that the national
monetary commission, in undertaking
its investigation of possible means for
improving the credit arrangements OF
this country began by examining the
banking institutions, customs and
regulations of the leading countries
OF Europe. If, among other people, in
most respects not unlike ourselves fin
ancial panics do not occur and the
credit systems maintain them selves
intact in the face of stress and strain.
| N''N iNh'bhS lbI lildl ulHtTence
require examination"
Mr.. Andrew declared that an none
OF the leading countries of Europe
during the past 100 years. except in
periods OF war and revolution, has
there been any such general collapse
Of credit and general suspension of
the banks as occurred here only two
years ago.
u do not mean to imply" he con-
tinued that there has not been in
these countries an unceasing altera-
ton of trade activity and trade relax
alton. Nor do I mean to imply that
there have not been great failures of
banks and business firms of all sorts.
But upon all these occasions there
has been leadership and the situation
has been kept firmly in hand. There
has been no infectious panic and no
general rout in which guilty and in
\ nocent alike were crushed to earth.
the failures in each of these cases
having been confined for the most part
to the persons and firms responsible
| for the previous excesses."

COMMANDER CHAS. A. ORR.
A Fine Portrait Presented by Chaplin

Last year Comrade John NJ Farqu-
har. ex-member of Congress. suggested
to Chaplin Post that in recognition of
the long and faithful service of Com
rade Charles A. Orr as Commander of
the Post some lasting testimonial should
be prepared.
Following out this, the Post directed
that an oil portrait should be painted,
which was done by Comrade ]. Harri-
son Mills, a member of the Post At
the joint installation services of the
Post and w. r. c. the finished portrait
was officially unvailed and received with
enthusiastic praise. 1t is pronounced a
work of art of high class, rejecting
honor on the artist, and the $50 MEM
bers of Chaplin Post are deservedly
proud of it as a reminder of their be-
loved Commander.
1t was directed that the portrait be
sent to the Pension Agency over which
Comrade Orr presides, and then it was
moved and carried that it be present.
