| changes that might be made in the cur
action upon currency legislation at tn,
present session of Congress. Other sen
ators said that if law was passed il
probably would be of a temporary char
acter.
When / introduced the present bill
in the Senate / did not foreclose my
self against amendments or changes in
it's FORM" Senator Owen said. There
have been many changes made in the
bill by the House committee, and / be-
lieve more will be made in the House

cratic caucus of House democrats yes
terday afternoon Speaker Clark told
his colleagues there would be no dan
ger of any President appointing the
wrong kind of men on the federal

Misconstrued.

Chairman owen of the Senate commit

today. and at it's conclusion stated that
the administration currency bill had his
full approval, and that he believed i,
would be reported by the committee with
out material change.
In taking up the bill in the commit

express their opinion freely without being
bound by what 1 had said. ! wanted to
draw them out to frank and free con-
ference.

IF the committee can improve on the

such changes, but l don't think there

Senator Owen said that he was in ia
vor of changes in the reserve features

II is believed the administration will
not submit to amendments to the bill
without a fight, and If the matter goes
to the democratic caucus the supporters

inclined to the opinion that the Senate
ultimately might be asked to consider
some measure of temporary character.
