Vanderlip Before Committee.

President Frank A. Vanderlip Of the
National City Bank of New York con-
tnued his discussion of the bill before
the Senate banking committee, explaining
amendments he thought necessary to per-
feet it. Vanderlip defended interlocking
directorates among New York banks, de-
claring they had given strength and never
had resulted In unfairness to borrowers.
He denied there was any combinat ton
for monopoly of credit in New York that
would prevent the financing of any sound
enterprise, and cited recent instances
where, he said, New York banks had
furnished money for enterprises designed
to compete with large and influential
concerns.
The committee went over the bill in
detail with Mr.. Vanderlip, and he pointed
out a number of amendments which he
believed necessary to perfect the measure.

Later in the discussion Senator Suther-

by a democratic caucus of the Senate
for the purpose of jamming it through

II have not consulted with the other

has been my disposition TO consult with
the republican members of the commit
tee at all times regarding this bill.
frankly say, however, that if it becomes
apparent that caucus action is needed to
put this bill through the Senate 1 shall
favor caucus action. | am one of those
that believe in the responsibility of the
majority for legislation.
In making his demand to learn when
the committee expected to report the
bill to the Senate, Senator Overman
said 1T does seem as though some per-
sons are trying to prevent any action
at all upon the currency bill" He de-
clared he had received a telegram from
friend attending the bankers meet
ing in Boston stating it was the object
of the big bankers to prevent this
legislation, and that the country bank
ers were being hoodwinked.

Aroused by Attacks.

Aroused by attacks which have been
made upon Individual members of the
Senate banking and currency commit
tee within the last few days, the COM
mittee went into executive session last
night TO discuss these attacks. Senators
O'Gorman and Hitchcock, singled out
for such attacks, demanded that the
comittee take up the matter. Chairman
owen of the committee, who has led
the support of the administration bill
in committee, was not present, how
ever. during the discussion. He left
shortly after the committee went into
executive session.
senator Hitchcock, after the meeting
said that the members of the commit
tee had unanimously expressed the
opinion that any organized effort to
coerce the committee or TO circulate
unfounded criticisms of the members
of the comittee were TO be condemned
He said. too. that the members of the
committee had condemned the criticism
of himself by Representative Carter
Glass
Senator O'Gorman said that the meet
ing resulted in a general expression of
good feeling among the members of the
committee. and an understanding that no
further efforts to force the committee TO

Misrepresentation, He Says.

Senator Owen declared numerous mis-
representations were appearing in the
public press.
i cannot but believe these are in
spired by a desire TO create hostility be-
tween members of the committee. to stir
up i'll feeling between the President and
members of the committee said Senator
Owen.
The discussion was brought temporarily
~ a close when Senator La Toilette de-
manded the regular order
Il have been in favor OF continuing the
present session for currency legislation -
said Senator La Toilette. II do not think
that anything should be done which
would tend to coerce the banking and cur
rency committee from getting all the
light IT possibly can on the matter in

Testimony Reaches 1000 Pages.

Senator Owen, in support of his state
ment that he was ready to report the
bill next week. pointed to the fact that
1000 pages of testimony have been taken
before the Senate committee, and tina,
practically the same persons appearing
before the Senate committee were heard
by the House committee.

In reply TO a question as TO when the
bill would come from committee after
the hearings have been concluded, Sena-
tor Owen said:
II have no idea"
Can the bill be reported by Novem-
Der 1?' Senator Overman asked
Il cannot say" replied Senator Owen.
Senator Cummins then interrupted to
ask whether the President had stated

for the bill.

False He Would Not Have Aid

IF NECESSARY, HE SAYS
Tells Senator Sutherland He Believes
Responsibility Should Be
on the Majority.

Absolute denial that President Wilson
had ever stated that he neither expected
nor wanted republican support for the
currency bill was made in the Senate
today by Senator Thomas of Colorado.
The senator said that he had had this
"from the Presidents own lips
The denial came during a discussion of
the possibility of getting an early report
on the currency bill from the Senate COM
mittee. Senator Cummins of Iowa, re-
publican, asked Chairman Owen whether
the statement published in The Star of
yesterday to the effect that the President
does not seek or expect republican sup
port for the BILL, was correct Senator
Owens reply was that the statement was
"preposterous. Senator Thomas then
entered his denial of the statement.
Senator Overman of North Carolina
precipitated the debate regarding the cur
rency bill by demanding from the chair
man of the banking and currency COM
mittee when the Senate could expect a
report on the measure.
Chairman Owen replied that he could
not make definite statement regarding
a report of the bill
This rests with the committee" said
the chairman; If he had his own way
ne would report the bill next week. But
the chairman has not had his own way"
