TWO SPEECHES MADE
ON CURRENCY BILL
Senators Hitchcock and Shafroth Dis
cuss Features of Glass Measure.
President Is Praised.
NEWLANDS SPEAKS TODAY

Two speeches yesterday were made on
the currency bill in the Senate.
Senator Hitchcock, Of Nebraska, ex-
planned the views of the branch Of the
committee which reported the Hitchcock
bill, and Senator Shafrcth, Of Colorado,
close friend Of William ]. Bryan, and
mainly responsible for keeping the words
| lawful money in the bill for redemption
purposes, presented the views of the ad-
ministration Senators
Just before the Senate adjourned, Sena-
tor Newlands, Of Nevada, introduced a
resolution declaring a definite policy of
currency legislation which he will call
I'D today and make the basis OF a speech
on currency legislation.
Mr. Hitchcock was given the closest
attention. He spoke for more than an
hour. It had been intimated that he
might criticise the Presidents attitude
toward the Senate in the matter of this
legislation, and might also pay his COM
pIiments to the caucus plan OF legislating.
But at the last minute the Senator from
Nebraska decided to confine himself to
the merits Of the measure before the
Senate.
In opening his address, Senator Hitch
cock declared that the currency legisla-
ton would prove to be "the most impor-
tant that has been before Congress for
many years"
Senator Hitchcock praised President
Wilson for bringing the matter before
Congress and making banking and cur
rency reform an administration measure.
Nothing less than Presidential influence
would have made banking and currency
reform possible for some time.
II yield this tribute to the President
the more readily because 1 have frankly
opposed and criticised him when he urged
hasty action, which I deemed danger
ous"
Senator Hitchcock declared that the
Senators who had insisted on careful con-
sideration of the currency bill had been
vindicated, in their judgment. He de-
clared that the bill as it came from the
House contained some very serious de-
fects and some fundamental errors. Had
these been enacted as they came from the
House most serious consequences might
have followed. The best proof that the
House bill needed revision is found in the
fact that every member of the Banking
and Currency Committee who has exam
ined the bill voted for changes which
amount in the aggregate to more than
one-half OF the original measure"
Senator Shafroth devoted much Of his
speech to a defense of using lawful
money" for redemption purposes. He de-
clared that there was not a sufficient
stock of gold to meet the demands of
credit, if redemption in gold were insisted
upon uniformly.
