This big machine was received a

teams to haul the dirt it scoops

until the entire road to the mines
would be ready for the rolling

CURRENCY BILL
NOW BEFORE
CONGRESS
Harmony Expected to Come from
Discussion Of the PreIimin-
ary Draft This Week.
Associated Press.


Washington, June 2O.-Congress
today scrutinized the administration
currency bill. While it will not he
introduced until next week, the ten
tutive draft brought out an informal
discussion by which the president
and the democratic leaders hoped to
develop harmony concerning the bill
when it Is launched for debate and
amendment.
Although it was originally planned
to form twelve regional reserve banks
and giving these banks representa-
tion on the federal reserve board, IL
was argued that they would have
practically entire charge of the re-
serve bahkss and that, BY placing the
board entirely in chargn of the gov
eTnment, a check of the operations of
the reserve banks would be assured.
A provision for the retirement OF
the ? per cent bonds by which the
500, ,OOO, 900 of national bank notes
are now secured, so as to provide
against depreciation, has been one of
the foremost problems.
The provision for a note issue is
said to be the result of careful
canvass Of the bankers and business
men, who thought it practicable and
sound.
Attention was centered today on
the re-discounting feature as one of
the fundamentals upon which the en-
tire plan is based, The power of the
regional reserve banks is specifically
broadened to discount notes and bills
of exchange arising out of CONNER
cial transactions with certain limita-
tions. It is this power that the ad-
ministration officials think will al
lcviate the money stringency in times
OF stress.
