CURRENCY BATTLE To
COME TO END FRIDAY
Debate on Measure to be Linn
tied and Bill Placed on Vote.
Several Points Revised by
Democrats.

WASHINGTON. Dec is. - An
agreement TO vote on the final pass
age of the administration currency
bill "on the legislative day Of Friday,
Dec. 10" was reached in the senate
late Wednesday. The agreement pro-
vides that debate Thursday and Fri
day shall be limited to fifteen minutes
for each senator upon each amend
ment or upon the bill itself
While the legislative dav may run
over into Saturday. il is the eXpecta-
ton of the senate leaders that the
bill will be passed before midnight
Friday night If important amend
tments are pending at that time how
ever, a recess may be taken until Sat
urday morning.
Following the numerous attacks on
tn note issue provision and the re-
serve requirements of the bill by those
who considered the measure would
open the doors to initiation the demo-
cratic committee tonight revised the
reserve section.
The required gold reserve behind
the new circulating notes was increas-
ed from 80 per cent as provided in
the owen bill. to 40 per cent with a
tax of one per cent on depletion of the
reserve down to 80 - per cent. An
the amount of notes to be issued
! failed.
other amendments adopted provid-
ed for the use of a part of the sur
/ plus earnings of the regional banks
for building up the gold reserve. for
an increase in the compensation of
! the members of the federal reserve
board from $4,000 to 1900, as pro-
vided in the Hitchcock amendment
and that all the member banks must
receive the proposed new notes at
par was approved.
The conference also decided to re-
model section eight of the bill pro-
viding for the entrance of ste te banks
and trust companies into the new
system, and voted in favor of a pro-
vision whereby regional banks would
! be required to keep a fund intact
/ in the treasury TO provide for the re-
/ demption of outstanding notes. All
OF these changes, with several other
minor amendments. were referred to
/ me democrats Of the banking commit
ee to be framed in detail. The con-
| ference took no action on the guar
antee of deposit provision of the bill.

OF KNIVES.
Knives are probably the most important
tools of the kitchen. Not single meal
could be prepared-bread cut, potatoes
peeled-without knives, yet in no other
one article do women practise such snort
sighted false economy. a kitchen with
stock of fine knives Is the unusual kitchen.
Ten cents for "A pairing knife and at most
20 cents for a bread or meat knife are
all a woman spends, yet three weeks or
service finds the blade loose from the
handle of the parer and the meat knife so
dull Il won't cut butter. Thereupon the
housewife promptly buys new parer
pays 10 cents to have the meat knife
sharpened and repeats the performance
ad llbItum. All this while she has no
really efficient tool. Why not. in the first
place. purchase knives OF finely tempered
steel. well rlveteG into their handles?
Women too often choose the small.
cheap device which looks attractive and
which has wonderful and novel claims
made for It and pass by some OF the in
expensive articles which are really good.
4 small dipper which lifts cream off OF a
bottle. a npper which hulls Strawberries,
a pancake turned with one-piece wire
handle instead OF wood are, for instance,
inexpensive pieces that deserve wider use.
The good housewife will become moro
and more like the good mechanic. who Is
never guilty Of buying novel tools at
bargain price. but who buys few and inc
very best tools made and takes the very
best care of them.
