currency REFORM BILL
PLANS ARE GONE OVER
Measure VIII Be introduced in
the House Early in
June.

The banking and currency bill which is
now the object of discussion between
members Of the House, the Senate, the
President and Secretary McAdoo of the
treasury Department will be introduced
into the House early in June. Represen-
tative Underwood and Secretary McAdoo
held long conference over the proposed
measure yesterday. President Wilson
held three conferences on currency re-
form. One of them was with Senator
Kern, majority leader. who told the
President that the Senate was SO busiy
engaged with the tariff that currency
matters had not been considered seri-
ously enough in that body to be able to
predict what would be the best course
to follow.
Wilson Confers With Owen.
The President talked with Chairman
owen of the Senate banking and cur
rency committee early in the day and
later saw Representative Glass. chair
man of the House banking committee.
He was merely inquiring into the
progress being made by those work
ing on a currency bill. Indications are
that within another week a bill will
be completed the fundamentals OF
which Will have administration approval.
Secretary McAdoo had short con-
ference late yesterday at the Capitol
with Senators Burton and Weeks.
Senator Burton was member of the
national monetary commission and
Senator Weeks is member of the
banking and currency committee. 1t
was understood that Mr.. McAdoo dis
cussed currency legislation in a gen
eral way.
The Senate currency committee is
scheduled to meet tomorrow and
Chairman Owen and other members
are preparing the list of questions to
be submitted to bankers and financial
experts. Although many senators be-
lieve that currency legislation at the
special session is impossible, the opin-
ion is growing that determined ef-
fort may be expected to put a bill
through both houses.
