Secretary Charges Concert
ed Action on Part of the
Banks to Defeat New
Currency Measure

Washington, July 22.-Secretary Me-
~ charging TINT the decline of gOv-
ernment = per cent bonds to 051s--a
new low record---was due "nlmost
wholly to what appears to be "A cam
pafgn waeed with every Indication of
concerted action ON the part of num-
her of influential New York city banks
nbOut these bonds in order TO help
them in their efforts to defeat the eur
rency bill.
Banks throughout tn ecountry own al
most entirely $3.50, So 1870 of the per cents.
Their market value today was approxi-
mately sSOOoO,oeO less than when the
banks bought them. Almost all the en-
tire issue is used as security for national
bank notes. At the present price, how
ever, the discrepancy between the market
value and the issues of notes against
the bonds is covered by what is known
as the per cent redemption fund, de-
posted by the banks with the treasury
to care for retirements Of national bank
notes.
Put in Bonds at Par
Secretary McAdoo announced it was not
his intention to require the banks TO
charge off the present depreciation below
par, but that the banks might continue
TO put in the bonds at par in their state
ments to the comptroller of the currency,
at least until some material change in
conditions should compel the adoption of
another course" In his statement Secre-
tarl McAdoo declared per cents were
worth par Notwithstanding their decline
in the New York market, and continued:
'.rhe idea seems to be that the coun-
try banks which hold about two-thirds
of the per cent bonds. and use them
as the basis for their circulating notes,
may be induced to united with the New
York city banks in opposition to the bill
If they can be made to believe that the
proposed currency measure Is going to
iniure these bonds and cause losses to
the banks This is, of course, unfounded.
Meantime it is folly for any bank to
sell government 2's at a sacrifice because
OF any aapprehended legislation adverse to
government bonds. as no such legislation
will result In the 124 years of its ex-
1isten.c the government has Kept faith

not going to change its honorable char
acter now II the necessities of any bank

that, of course, is another matter-a mat
ter solely for the bank to determine.
Value Not Impaired
''The secretary said that not only had
nothing occurred to impair the value of
the per cent bonds. but that the amend
ment already adopted by the banking
and currency committee of the House
en hances their intrinsic worth:
Il. Because the banks and all other
holders of per cent bonds are given

of their holdings, present or hereafter

REPUBLICAN, RANKS
ARE DIVIDED OVER
TARIFF BILL FIGHT
Begin Conferences to Per-
feet Substitute Schedules
Which Will Be Affected.
Attacks Yesterday

Washington. July 2S.-A division in
the ranks of republican senators over
the tariff revision fight became ap-
parent today when nearly dozen pro-
gressive republicans began a series of
conferences to perfect substitute sched-
ules that will be offered to the tariff
bill under the leadership of Senators
LaFollette and Cummins
The progressive republican move
has grown out of the belief of lead
ing senators identified with that fac
tion that they would be unable to sup
port Senator Shoots substitute for the
woolen tariff. This substitute was pre-
pared some days ago and introduced
at the time the democratic tariff bill
came back from the finance commit
tee The progressive republicans have
practically agreed to center their fight
about the LaFollette substitute in the
hope that they can carry the balance
of the republican party with them and
possibly win some democrats away
from President Wilson's free wool plan
Progress Slow
Progress on the tariff bill was slow
in the Senate today.
Prepared speeches We're made by
Senators Townsend and Warren re-
publicans, and short assaults occurred
throughout the afternoon upon specific
items which the republicans held to
be too radical reductions from exist
ing law.
TbSa. Si for
far have shown no disposition on the
floor Of the Senate to break with their
republican associates except in a few
votes, where they joined the democrats
In support OF lower duties. The con-
ferences which began today, however.
are expected to solidify the progress
sive element and to bring about "A
new alignment of the republican forces.
Senator LaFollette's cotton and wool
substitutes and Senator Cummins' metal
substitute were under consideration at
the conference today and probably will
be supported by the progressives IL Is
expected that a substitute sugar tar
iff, similar to that which Senator Bris-
tow succeeded in getting through the
Senate in tn last sssion of Congress.
will have the progressive strength be-
hind ii.
Rate Consideration
The Senate mad completed the con-
sideration of rates on chemical drugs
oils and like products today and had
gotten started in the earthenware and
glassware schedule when adjournment
came tonight. Set speeches are to be
made during the week by Senators
Gronna. Thornton and others but IL is
expected that the detailed consideration
of the bill Will be had in the Senate
almost continuously from now on
a
made several days ago by Senator VIII
liams that the last election gave him
authority for the statement that the
people favored a tariff for revenue only.
Senator Warren maintained that there
was no such majority expression of
opinion. because the presidential cam
paign was three-corpered and the DEM
ocrats won by a minority vote
"Atrocious betrayal of pre-election
promises" was his characferizatfon Of
