POSTAL SAVINGS
BILL WILL PASS
ALL EFFORTS TO AMEND ARE
soUELCHED BY THE
SENATE.
MONEY IN HOME BANKS
INDEMNITY 30 kDS REQUIRED
FROM POSTAL SAVINGS
REPOSITORIES.

MISUNDERSTANDING to vote on
Wednesday on the Carter motion to
concur in the House postal savings
bank bill, the Senate adjourned Tues
day after day devoted largely to an
onslaught upon the House measure.
A number OF amendments were Of
fered, but the old Guard" of the
regulars was on duty, and each as
sault was successfully resisted, the
majority ranging from six to eight
votes.
Word was circulated early in the
session that the President desired the
House bill-and the message undoubt-
edly had an influence in maintaining
the measure intact.
All amendments were directed to
the section OF the House bill relating
20 the deposit and withdrawal OF the
postal bank funds by the government.
The general contention was that the
House bill contemplated the with
drawal OF the funds from the local
banks for transference to the large
eastern banks and to the national
treasury, while it was urged that the
Senate bill would hold the money at
the home banks except in case Of war
or other contingency.
The first of the amendments dis
posed of was offered by Senator Ba
con and provided for the striking out
of the provision authorizing the use
OF postal bank deposits for the pur
chase OF bonds. Supporting his own
amendment Mr.. Bacon declared the
provision OF the House was the enter
4ng wedge in the interest of great
central bank. He said the financiers
OF Wall Street could have written
nothing more to their own liking.
The amendment was voted down by
q majority of six as was the next
Cummins and which required that de-
positories should be selected in ac-
Cordance with a general rule.
The suggestion that received most
attention provides for a requirement
OF indemnity bonds from postal saw
tngs repositories.
Mr. Bristow declared that the
House provision would preclude the
possibility of country banks becoming
depositaries, as it would require them
TO prefer one depositor over others.
which the state laws would not per
init Instead of being a source of
strength in the next campaign It
would be cause of weakness to the
Republican party, he said. The vote
against the amendment stood p to
81.
A similar fate met an amendment
by Mr.. Cummins, restoring the Senate
provision authorizing the withdrawal
of the deposits from the local banks
only in case of war or other exigency

Then. Jim, said l. I'll give up all
thought of going to the country for
July and August this year.
But the dear fellows face changed.
and he said:
