CURRENCY PROGRAM IS
DISCUSSED
LEADERS ARE GOING TO FIND OUT
IF PRESIDENT WILSON WISHES
TO RUSH LEGISLATION At EXTRA
SESSION.

Washington. ID. c., May "Details
of the currency program for the
house and senate will be discussed at
a conference Of congressional leaders
with the president tonight or tomor-
row. Considerable opposition has
developed particularly in the senate,
to the proposal to hurry currency
legislation at the extra session and
the leaders will endeavor to ascer-
tain Just how far the president de-
sires to go and how far his wishes
can be met in the present legislative
situation. Up to this time, Rep. IN
derwood. the house leader, has been
of the opinion that While the curren-
cy question might be taken up at the
present session, no attempt should be
made to push through complete bill
until the new tariff has gone into eff
feet.
A similar opinion obtains in the
senate.
Representatives Underwood, Palmer
and Glass, and Senator Owen are eX-
pected to take up the question with
the president.
If general currency legislation is
attempted, it is probable an effort
will be made in the house to bring
up the so-called "money trust bills
for the regulation of stock exchanges,
clearing houses aud national banks
which resulted from the Pujo inyesti-
cation in the last congress.
Members of the house also expect
after the currency bill has been dis
posed of. revision of the national
banking laws will be taken up.
