who had an ankle sprained at Wheel

and against the bill Representative
Kent independent, of California, fell
back on the X-ray drapery of modern
feminine fashion in his disapproval
of the idea that the bill is unconsti-
tutional.
LAS to the constitutional argument
urged by the gentleman from Iowa
Mr.. Prouty." he said, whereby he tried
to show that the bankers would be de-
prived of their property without process
of law, that argument Is finer spun than
modern skirt.
Banks cannot claim the federal good
will and the federal name without COM
plying with federal law. They can take
their little dishes and play in the state
yards IL they see fit Can the Creator
condition the existence Of the creature?
LAS q matter of course. this measure
should be followed by a farm credit sys-
tenn to aid in agricultural development,
by the use of fixed investment funds. for
this Is where such funds are needed and
can be safely applied. Speculative bonds
ought not to be the only outlet for the
peoples savings.
Reasons for Passing Bill.
Concerning the reasons why the bill
should be enacted he said:
"Our present currency system Is q
crazy-Quilt of mutual and reciprocal
.,ro1anities-gold. silver at a false ratio
gold certificates, silver certificates call
ing for SO cents on the dollars worth
of metal, Treasury certificates redeem

acter remind one of the strugs e of the

Control Money and Credit.

Representative Kelly pointed out that
many Of the greatest banking institu-
lions Of the country have degenerated
into instrumentalities for the control Of
money and credit
"All must admit" he argued that
banks are Quasi-public institutions and
that their proper conduct has vital
demands that they shall not be permit

business through the monopolistic con-
troll OF credit; That Is the demand OF

raised upon shaky foundation. 1t is a
weak measure. for, however strong the
building erected upon shifting sand. It
cannot be stable and enduring"
Says Change Is Necessary.
As an offset to the conditions COM
planned Of. Mr.. eKlly said that a change
in the reserve system lis necessary, and
also ''the express prohibition that ma
tional banks shall not loan any money
on securities dealt in at stock exchanges
which refuse to incorporate and submit
to proper supervision and control"
Another change advocated was to pro-
hibit bank officers and directors from
borrowing from their own banks He
said this practice had been a fruitful
cause OF bank failures. Another neces-
s.ty, ne Said would be to require that
banks make public their assets.
Representative Tess Of Chicago said:
What does the Glass bill do? Its
proponents claim ii gives control to
the government without placing the
government In the banking business. /
cannot agree with this position. II
virtually takes the banking business
out Of the hands Of the owners and
places IL In the grasp Of the govern
ment. To be specific, IL makes the
government the operative agent. the
administrative factor. instead of lin
iting IL to the regulatory or controlling
power.
Too Much Federal Power.
las the Aldrich bill gave too much
power to the banks. the Glass bill
gives too much power to the govern
ment.
The advocates of this bill are not
a unit upon Its meaning. In the early
| stages of its interests we could hear
on all sides. as we can here and there
yet. the statement that we propose to
have scheme where the government
would operate the banking business

arguments home into the short ribs OF
republican enemies and progressive
sneerers and democratic insurgents
who protest violently that the bill is
no good. yet who declare they must
vote for 1t because it is party meas
ure. The critics of the bill have been
bitter. but Mr. Glass took the essence
OF their bitterness and flung 1t back at
them
He was particularly angry at the long
continued statements that the bill had
been steam rollered through Set Of
secret meetings, and that the gag had
been tightly applied: and he declared that
the democrats are mere pigmies at the
gag and steam roller trade, as compared
with the time when Speaker Cannon was
in power.
