"Wall street has discounted the tariff

currency legislation. What is Congress
going to do about currency?"
This is the message and query which
comes to congressman from financial
circles in the east The statement that
the effect Of the tariff bill has been
anticipated and that adjustment to its
changes is under way Is generally be-
ueved by the recipients of the mes

speculation.
But Wall street Is never really happy
unless II has something to worry about
and. failing to find a bugaboo IN tne
tariff, turns TO the currency bill Tor coiu
chills. The larger banking interests. with
which big business in the east comes
into contact, are said to look with ap-
prehension upon the effect of the pending
currency bill
There Is an oninous silence In big
Ranking circles since the Chicago con-
ference. when the objections OF the bank
ers were put into concrete form and pre-
sented to Congress by the conlmlttee ap-
pointed for the purpose.
Explanations of Silence.
Two explanations are assigned for this
silence. one that the bankers are keeping
still pending consideration Of the bill
In the House, convinced that the Senate
will give them the amendments they de-
sire. The other is that the big banks
are yielding to the inevitable and will
struggle no longer against the proposed
currency law changes. but will adjust
their affairs to meet them.
Views of the Leaders.
Administration leaders In Congress say
IL will be wiser for the public to with
hold Judgment about the effect Of the
currency bill until the law goes into ef-
feet. claiming that 1t will not fulfill the
pessimistic forebodings Of those who have
opposed IL.
The democratic congressman are greatly
pleased with the general business situa-
ton on the eve of the passage Of the
tariff bill and contend that the situation
will be the same when the currency
till becomes operative.
Leader Underwood pointed out in the
House the other day that never In recent
years has n tariff bill, involving sharp
changes In the schedules. caused so little
disturbance Of general business as has
the measure now nearing completion.
