Ford's private office.

her while she worked, nor what

Since the searching OF the girls

The new corporation later was taken

immediate revision of the bankinp and

The president expects the currency

resents the administrations views and

be no man bill"

Bill Ready This Week.
At the regular semi-weekly confer
ence with the Washington correspond
ents today the president was asked
for an explanation OF some of the
principles of currency reform, but said
that inasmuch as the bin and his own
message would be made public within
a week he would refrain from COM
ment. The president was undecided as
to whether his message would be pre-
sented to congress in advance of the
currency bill or whether both would
be made public about the same time.
The impression prevailed, however.
that the bill will be introduced in both
houses by Wednesday or Thursday of
this week and that the president will
pronounce his views to congress about
June %.
The president did declare. however,
today that there We're no essential
variations among the leading demo
Gratis with whom he had consulted con-
corning currency reform. As to the
intimation from the capitol that cur
rency legislation was not desired at
this session, the president declared no
such information had been conveyed
to him. His impression was that the
need of currency legislation was recog-
nized but that the only objection
raised against its enactment at the ex-
ira session IA the approaching hot
season.

President Taft, true to his oath to
