The Springfield Republican has a
telling way for putting things The
banking and currency bill has been
much denounced especially in those
quarters where high finance has long
held undisputed sway. The deter
mination of President Wilson to see
that a real, honest banking bill is
honest people of this country. Per-
haps the highest compliment yet paid
the measure is found in the bitter op-
position to it expressed by AIdrich
of Payne-Aldrich fame. Our es-,
teened Springfield Republican CON
temporary is not far amiss when it
says:
ut is astonishing what an expert
can see in the banking and currency
bill with the naked eye. Victor Mo-
rawetz of New York sees a. currency
contraction sufficient to make a pan
fc, while Prof Piatt Andrew, secre-
tary of the national monetary COM
mission, was never. 5surer in his life
Of anything than that the bill as writ
ten involves imitation to the extent of
a billion dollars. What are plain law
makers to do wheAR folks who know it
all cannot agree ?''
