program Of the Wilson ad-
ministration work out?
This question Of vital sig
nifcance in point of national welfare
and prosperity has yet to be answered.
Important as monetary legislation is,
the subject is one with which, when
we exclude bankers. but comparatively
few folks are familiar. When it comes
to analyzing such a complicated prob
lem on a warm August day most Of us
say, please excuse me-"
True, the best Informed have a gen
eral idea Of the salient points involved
in the currency bill upon which the
final verdict remains unpassed, but it
Is a vague idea. In fact, to be quite
candid and leaving out II %inanciers.
only n u of every ten intelligent
men we meet has any definite personal
opinion. Upon second reflection we
think that estimate is too high. The
rest are as much at sea as a first grade
pupil would be If asked, "How many
degrees in tive-eighths Of a circle:'
The money question calls for expert
study. Even our currency specialists
have much to learn-which they grace
fully acknowledge. Like the tariff, cur
rency legislation is a matter in which
the proof of the pudding is in the eat
ing. AS yet the currency pudding is
untasted,
Quick Action Urged by President.
Or course, currency legislation comes
closer to our bankers than to anybody
else. That is, technically speaking.
But he wrong kind of currency legis-
lat1on would affect everybody. 1t
would be disastrous to the entire coun-
try. Our representatives in Washing
ton realize this, hence the extreme eau
ton which has attended their delibera-
tons and conclusions.
President Wilson carried an ambi-
t1ous program in his pocket when he
entered the White House. He felt that
the lot Of the poor man could be made
easier. Other presidents had felt that
way, too. and. moreover. had endeav.
ored to bring about the boon. When
Mr.. Wilson took hold he believed that
his administration could accomplish
something worth while along this line
through tariff and currency reform.
On June %, addressing the two houses
Of congress, he declared, "Now is the
time for monetary legislation" He
laid emphasis on NOW" and quite as
The Ekalaka eagle. [volume] (Ekalaka, Mont.) 1909-1920, 1913-08-15

much emphasis on his admonition, eve
must act now at whatever sacrifice to
ourselves" Senators and representa-
tives then agreed that the issue of en-
acting a currency measure at once or
postponing it till the regular session Of
congress next winter had been sharply
drawn between the president and
those who maintained that the extra
session should terminate with the pas
sage Of the tariff bill.
important Changes In the Bill.
Three days following the presidents
address the currency bill modified. in
several important particulars and pro-
viding for the reform of banking and
currency laws through the creation of
a new system of federal reserve bank
ing was introduced simultaneously in
both branches of congress. Senator
Robert l.. Owen Of Oklahoma present
ed the measure to the senate and Rep
resentative Carter Glass of Virginia to
the house. The former is chairman Of
the senate banking and currency COM
mittee. and the latter is chairman of
the same committee in the house. The
bill was drafted by Owen and Glass in
conjunction with the president and
Secretary Of the Treasury McAdoo.
OF the changes in the bill presented

While the president and Representa-
tive Glass We're credited with drafting
the currency measure much interest
was evinced in the part played by Sec
rotary of State Bryan. This because
of the fact that Mr.. Bryan in his cam
paigns for the presidency had made
the money issue a dominant note.
Mr.. Bryan Immediately declared him
self as unqualifiedly in favor Of the
measure as presented to congress.
Representative Mann's Objection.
Opposition to the new currency plan
was voiced by Representative James
Il. Mann of Illinois, the Republican
house leader, who issued a statement
immediately after the president had
delivered his speech to congress. The
Republicans. said Mr.. Mann, would
support the bill if it would advance
the Interests Of the country, but would
refuse to tolerate BIPARTISAN political
control of banks or the issuance Of
