Vanderlip Advises
Senate Committee
On Currency Bill

WASHINGTON, Oct. S.-Condemning
some features of the pending currency
bill and praising others. Frank A.
Vanderlip of the National City bank
of New York today advised the senate
banking and currency committee.
Speaking Of the proposed II regional
reserve banks, he said there should
be only one bank. or as few as pos
sible, and that if there are more than
one they should be so linked together
as to form a central bank.
He declared the note issue plan
would fail to accomplish elasticity.
8fr. Vanderlip said that the bill as
drawn would accomplish the mobiliza-
tion of the reserves. which, he de-
clared. was a very important desid-
eratum. He said the period of transit
tion between the present system and
the proposed would be very trying.

not do anything which is not in
strict conformity with all the de-
tails of the law and the municipal
ordinances.
Now, what we rise to ask is,
can you get VIM. II. Taft or a
Chief Justice Marshall to serve as
policeman for sixty to ninety dol

thoroughly familiar with the Of
