MONEY BILL EASY
ON BANKS, HE SAYS
But Mr.. Untermyer Endorses
Principle Upon Which
Measure Is Based.

Samuel Cntermyer. counsel for the
House money trust investigation of the
asst Congress, gave his ideas on currency
reform today to the Senate banking COM
nittee. Mr.. Cntermyer Endorsed general
II the principles OF the administration
currency bill passed by the House last
week. but suggested n number of amend
ments.
Il wish ii understood" said Mr.. Inter
myer, that I am an unqualified cham
pion of the principles on which this bill
is based-that is, an asset currency.
ment obligation. and under the control
is overgenerous to the bankers in free
ing them from complications"
Calls It Discrimination.
Mr.. Untermyer criticised adversely the
provisions allowing bankers to deal in
acceptanccs given for the expectation
or Importation Of goods"
This is Il discrimination" he said
against domestic business, and would
make money cheaper to men in foreign
trade than to domestic merchants"
Mr.. Untermyer said the bill guaran-
a monopoly Of the banking business OF
the country.
I'm that respect the bill is more
generous than any banking system in
the world" said he. Mr.. Untermyer
added that by using his vivid oriental
imagination" he could conceive of a
situation in which the federal reserve
board, by fixing the discount rate.
could bring about a period of easy
money for political purposes. He said
he believed the minimum limit of one
half per cent discount rate was too
low.
Benefit to Country Banks.
Senator Bristow declared the small
country bankers would be unfairly treat
ed under the bill. Mr.. Untermyer and
Chairman owen endeavored to show
that the country banks would be able to
hold and use their resources to much
better advantage than they now do. Mr..
Untermyer declared that by making COM
mercial paper liquid asset the bill
would keep away from New York mil

the only collateral at present easily con-
verted.
Senators Reed and Weeks led Mr.. I'm
termyer through n discussion of much
of the material embraced in the PuJo
money trust report relating to the con
centration OF credits" Senator Weeks
objected to Untermyer's reference to Lee
Higginson IL Co. of Boston as an
instance of "a concern exerting Nor
gan influence over banks. The witness
insisted that he believed the hill would
operate to dissipate the concentration of
control of the financial system.

pie of Mexico. assuring them that tn.

In a legal manner. should show it's will
In the designation of the authorities who
are to direct its destinies. He denied that
the government had candidate for the
coming elections. and said:
1T would be an anomalous proceeding
for the government to have an official
candidate, or even TO have any predi-
lection for favorltism In supporting
any candidate. The role it should play
always, and especially under the existing
conditions. is to avoid disturbing the pub
lie tranquility. and to repress every dis
order at the polls with the police, who
alone have the task of dealing with such
disorders or. should they become dan
gerous, of suppreSsing them with force
of arms. In this case the army would
play the role. not of political imposition.
but of maintaining public order, We're 1t
seriously menaced, and of sustaining the
democratic institutions which are the
basis of our social institution.
To Garry Out Obligations Assumed
Il must declare. once and for all. and
in the face of the whole nation, that |
shall duly carry out the obligations which
i have assumed. These have for their
basis the establishment of peace and the
security of the republic at the same time
leaving the various political parties free
so that without any support whatever
from the government. they may place
candidates in the field. carry on their
campaigns and take their ideals and as
pra atoms to n happy termination. The
government will limit itself to the pre-
vention Of disorder or attractions OF the
law and will give guarantees to every

Huerta said that while he personally
had no candidate. he had personal pre-
objection for some man and would go to
the polls and cast h3 vote for this man.
AS president of the republic. however, he
had no prediction and would treat all
candidates alike so long as they COM
piled with the legal requisites.
Party Will Name Candidate.
The labor party is preparing to put a
candidate in the field, and the agricul-
tural league probably will nominate ma
tional ticket.
The declaration of the rebel leaders, re
pudiating treaty rights with the United
States for falling to recognize their bel
ligerency has caused some uneasiness in
official circles here The officials state
that such action on the part of Huerta
probably would result in a declaration of
war with the United States, and they are
watching carefully what action will be
taken i'm Washington. Huerta is showing
the strain of the last few days, due to his
conflict with the chamber of deputies and
also 10 an accident TO his son. which has
greatly affected him. His conversation
indicated that while he considered the
situation serious and possibly critical, 1t
is by no means desperate.

TARIFF BILLS FINISH
FIXED FOR NEXT WEEK
Measure Expected to Be
Ready Then for the Presi-
dents Signature.

That the Clarke amendment TO the tar
iff bill relating to a tax on cotton future
sales will remain in the bill. or that it
will be stricken entirely from the meas
ure without such compromise has
been suggested and expected. was the
prediction made today by a member of
the conference committee. The conferees
have not yet reached the section relat-
ing to cotton futures. but there has been
considerable informal discussion of the
matter among them.
This morning the subcommittee which
has been working on the income tax
section of the bill since Saturday was
in session again, and the whole confer
ence committee did not assemble until
afternoon to proceed witr its considera-
ton of the income tax amendments made
by the Senate.
Conference With President.
Senator Simmons. chairman of the con-
ference. and Senator Smith of Georgia
called upon the President at the White
House today and discussed the tariff
situation generally with him. 1t is the
hope of. the democratic leaders that this
week will see the Wind-up of tariff legis-
Iation, and that the bill will go to the
President FOR his signature not iateF than
the first part of next week.
The entire conference committee met at
noon and took up consideration of the in
come tax section. The mates of rates
and other Senate amendments over
which there is bound to be controversy
We're temporarily passed over and the
conferees made good progress in getting
rid of other amendments, relating prin-
cipally to phraseology.
when the Senate adjourned today it
was to meet next Thursday. This means
there is no chance of the tariff confer
ence report being submitted to that body
unit! Thursday afternoon. However, the
conference report will be laid before the
House first in any event.

I'VE know the feeling in the west, "
said Mr.. Okazaki. "and know that the
attitude of the western people is
against us. We do not ask for citi-

United States supreme court bars the
Japanese on account of race. Our
