Bankers Urge Care in
Framing Currency Bill

THE need for currency legislation has
not sprung up this year. nor last, but
has existed for the last ten years." said
Charles ]. Bell. president Of the Ameri-
can Security and Trust Company, In
discussing the proposed currency legis-
lation.
Il think that we need currency leg
islation," he said. 1T is matter. how
ever, which should be taken up and
looked into carefully, and only passed
after thorough consideration has been
given to 1t. II Is better that we should
have good BILL even though We have
to wait, than that We have bad one
quickly enacted"
Another Washington banker who
counsels care in the enactment of cur
rency legislation is George W. White,
president Of the National Metropolitan
Bank
1T would SEEM said Mr.. White,
that we must have some sort OF cur
rency legislation to satisfy the people
There is no need, however, to push
such legislation through this summer.
The need for revision Of this branch
of our laws Is no more pressing row
than Il has been for some time. There
Is on the statute books an emergency
currency law, which, II need be, might
be prolonged by Congress for another
three or six years. Meantime the en-
tire currency system might be carefully
considered and a broad and efficient
measure evolved"

PERKINS ADVOCATES
SHARING OF PROFITS
Says This, Not Wage Increases,
viii Settle Labor-Ca
Conflict.

sAGAMORE BEACH, Mass, July a.
Profit sharing. not wage increases IL
the only answer to the labor versus
capital conflict according to George w.
Perkins, former partner Of ]. p. Nor
gan, who spoke before the Sociological
conference today on the subject THE
Workers Fair Share
. .'eome very wealthy men who today
complain that labor is demanding more
and more, are themselves to blame for
It." he said. They made great for
tunes and then endowed many institu-
tions of learning. The laboring men
studied and where they formerly struck
for wage increases they are today de-
manding a share - The profits Of the
large corporations they work for. 1t is
. higher rate of intelligence at work.
and, this being so, no arbitrary dollar
and cent increase will ever prove salts
factory. We must adopt profit-shar-
20 give the worker his fair share.
7 Il do not mean bonuses or anything
that smacks of philanthropies when I
say profit-shartng. / mean genuine
profit sharing by which employees be-
come part-owners; by which a concern
makes a statement of its transactions
annually showing its profits or losses
success Of failure OF its business. The
firm should say to the employe: 1T
costs 80 much 70 run the business You
earn your wages for helping to earn
that sum. II there is a surplus over
that sum, at the end Of the year IL goes
to you
wherever possible this surplus should
be distributed In the form Of securities
Of some kind. connected with the busi-
ness In question"
