MR.. BRYAN'SO.K
ON CURRENCY BILL
Thinks AIdrich's Opposition
Assures That Congress
Will Pass Measure.

WATERLOO, Iowa, October 1S.-Wil-
liam j. Bryan. Secretary OF State, last
night spoke In defense of President VIII
sons administration policies. He defend-
ed the pending currency bin, the new
tariff and the income tax and attacked
critics of these measures.
For generations the national banks
have held the governments money in re-
turn for contributions to campaigns and
support of the republican party said
Mr.. Bryan. speaking Of the currency bill.
The currency bill Is the most remarkable
currency measure we have ever had.
Heretofore it has been necessary for
bankers to put up bonds to secure gov
eminent money, but by the provisions OF
the new bill the government loans money
without requiring bonds. 1t lets the re-
gional bank take collateral from banks
within the zone and the zone banks put
their guarantee on the collateral This
enables the government to put into a
community more money than it takes out.
Right to Issue Money.
The government asks in return some
thing that bankers should be willing to
should issue the money itself. Why let
the banks issue the money in times of
peace, when the government must issue it
in time of trouble?
when the tariff bill came to be passed
there were men who had advocated an in
come tax, who were willing to keep 50
per cent on wooden goods and the old
Payne-Aldrich bill, rather than join with
the democrats to give lower tax and
income tax. While western republicans
voted for the eXtortionate rates Of a
row Wilson. right by Wall street and the
manufacturers, cast his lot with the
plain people and gave them a low rate on
the necessities of life.
why did he do It? Because his heart
is on the peoples side. They could not
come down and scare him."
Mr.. Bryan said he believed the present
tariff law would settle agitation on that
subject for a generation at least. He
said Nelson Aldrich's opposition to the
currency bill was necessary to assume
the passage Of the bill.
Why Control by Banksf
I'VE had a meeting in Boston the other
day and the papers said that when the
question was asked as to whether they
should be controlled by board of bank
erS they all shouted: ', e mink the DankS
ought to be controlled by bankers.'
what would You think of a railroad
that said: We must control the interstate
commerce commission that controls us in
the railroad business
Mr.. Aldrich complained the other day
that he did not like this bill. That is the
reason it was written this way, so he
would not like it. If the bill suited him.
1t would not be fit to print. If he were
pleased with it, it would be bad. He pre-
pared bill and after he had taken a
look through the country he resigned
from public life
Mr.. Bryan left for Washington later.
