MDRICH'S PLAN TO
= UNITY THE BANKS
Proposes Huge Organization to
Control Money.

The Aldrich plan for revision OF
national banking legislation" az he
~ II, has been made public. 1t
does not contemplate the establish.
ment OF a central bank. In this II
proved surprise.
The plan gas submitted 20 tho ma
donal monetary commission. Sena-
tor Aldrich was hundreds OF miles
away searching for health.
while we have found much that
Is admirable in the operation OF the
various government banks OF Europe,
bone of them is applicable 10 our
DEEDS here" says the Aldrich report.
The good results which they obtain
ban, believe, be reached without the
creation OF such a central bank"
Mr.. Aldrich proposes the estab.
ishment and chartering OF the Re
serve Association OF American" with
300, 100000 capital representing
What might be called a federation OF
ocal associations formed by national
banks. In his letter he says he be-
eves the association could not be
NJ 1ntrolled by ambitious monetary in
"a rests or dominated by political in.
inuence."
These seem TO the the essentials OF
his plan:
At bottom, local organizations OF
representatives Of banks, formed by
not less than ten banks each, each
bank holding stock in the association
In proportion TO it's capital.
Directors elected by these 10 the
board OF branch" associations, one
oranch for each OF fifteen financial
districts into which the United States
would be divided Each branch"
Iboard would include certain proper.
tion Of men not bankers but repre-
sentiug Industrial agricultural, com
mercial or other interests.
The branches" would In turn elect
70 the reserve association proper for
ty-hve directors In all, among whom
must also be a proportion OF men
representing interests other than
banls There would be also six eX-
officio members OF this board, name
ly. the secretary of the treasury the
secretary OF commerce and labor, the
comptroller OF currency. and the
governor and two deputy governors
OF the association.
The governor and deputy governor
Iof the association would be appointed
/ BY the president OF the United States,
I and be removable by him for cause.
Abe association would be the prin.
o. fiscal agent and depository OF
u ygovernment. would fix from time
90 time the rate OF exchange, or dis
count, and eventually its notes would
replace those OF the national banks.
Prime commercial paper, passing up
from the banks through the local as.
sociations and branches. as well as
bonds OF government, could be used as
a basis for currency issue.
The plan contemplates also two
. new classes OF national banks. or de.
partments of banks 20 receive saw
ings and make loans on real estate,
and also TO be In effect national trust
companies National banks would be
>permitted to form branches only in
Ytheir own immediate communities and
} they could also be organized for bust.
