That the Farmers Chauta u q 5

Not profiting by the experience of

farmer and trader. refused to answer the
grand jury of Clark when it asked him
il he knew of any money spent in the
election. His reply was ''only what was
told me in confidence Pressed for
source of his information he declined TO
give it and was hustled before the court,
who asked him the question again and
on his refusal to answer, he was adiudged
in contempt, fined $50 and ordered to
Jail. He makes no claim that he would
'incriminate himself. but says he will
not reveal confidential information. As
an ordinary proposition that high sense
OF honor would be comm nable. In such

and trifled with the national banking
act which was passed in 1S63-64, but
they have never offered a large, COM
plete remedy, as we seek here to offer
to the American people.
The Chairman-The time Of the
gentleman has expired.
Mr. Class yield to the gentleman
ten minutes more.
Mr.. Wilson of F1orida-This Is the
first time in the course of half a CEN
fury that the congress has sought to
remodel and remedy a system which is
inadequate to our commercial require
ments.
1t has been the solemn promise of
the Democratic party in many plat
forms that il would revise the present
system. And now. since we are In
power in the house, the senate, and at
the other end Of the avenue, we do
not shirk the promise we have made,
but we bring before the American peo-
pie the measure which we have here
given you for your consideration. It
is obviously necessary that we should
have legislation upon this subject.
Gentlemen have said that the present
system has proven good, and that we
have prospered under 1t. That is true
to some extent, but gentlemen must
also recognize that at regular stated
periods we have had calamities in our
commercial life which call Imperative
~ for some legislation on our money
system.
This bin may not be perfect, may
not be exactly what we want 1T to be,
but It is, in my opinion, a long step
in the right direction. Whether it
brings entire strength, whether it
-
may be said that it is measure which
is in the direction Of curing the ex-
listing evil We have here a system
of cooperative banking. We here have
a system which will keep In the com
munities that want 1t, and here 1t
should be kept, the reserve fund and
the deposit funds Of the banks of the
district. Instead of sending our money
to New York and getting per cent
for It, instead Of relying upon the big
central cities for the money when we
need 1t, under the system which we
propose we will be able to get 1t at
home, or not a long way from home.
The United States is divided into
twelve regions under this bill and
more If necessary in the opinion Of the
federal reserve board, and each region
will take care of the territory adjoin-
Ing 1t. 1t Will not De as II mas been
heretofore in times of crisis and dis
turbance, that we will have to seek aid
from New York or seek add from Chi
cago or from st. Louis or the General
reserve cities, but we will have 1t at
home where we can go to our own re-
gional bank and discount the CONNER
cial paper in the banks Of that re-
gion.
It seems to me one Of the best sys-
TENS devised that a bank becoming a
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1913-09-17

member Of this association will be able
to use It's commercial paper and its
agricultural paper for the purpose of
rediscounts in the regional banks
thereby procuring notes which will
circulate among the people of the re-
gion in which the bank is situated.
That is what we want, Mr.. Chairman.
Under the system which we have de-
vised 1t will readily go out when need
ed, and as readily come back when not
needed, assuring to the people that
there shall be no imitation of the mo-
ney and no contraction of the money.
In conclusion, Mr.. Chairman, I will
say a word in reference to the federal
reserve board. I have heard it from
the other side of the aisle that this
board will be a partisan and political
board. I wish to state to the gentle
men upon the other side Of the aisle
that the same opposition, as our dis
tinguished chairman told us the other
day, was raised to the creation of the
Interstate Commerce Commission. The
Interstate Commerce Commission has
the right to fix rates and the right to
suspend rates over all the great rail-
way systems Of this country and I be-
lieve there is not a gentleman in this
house who will deny that the Inter
state Commission has done a good
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1913-09-17

strenuously for the pending measure.
I have heard criticism after criticism
of the majority members of the COM
mittee. I have heard shafts aimed at
our beloved and distinguished chair
man. And let me pause for minute
to say that believe that no man ever
lived who has a more sincere, a purer,
and more patriotic desire to present a
measure for the benefit Of the whole
people of the country than our dis
'tinguished chairman. (Aipplause on
the Democratic side)
I shall not attempt to analyze the
manifold features of this bill. They
have been covered very carefully and
studiously by the gentleman from Vir-
ginia (Mr. GLASS; and by other gentle
men on the committee.
But let me say, Mr.. Chairman, that
it must be readily understood by all
gentlemen who have studied our fnan-
cial system that our present national
banking act is not the act which will
serve the needs Of the country. 1t has
been more than fifty years since any
measure of this kind has been at
tempted to be passed by the congress.
The Republican party have delayed

service for the American people.
Besides that, in the transaction OF
governmental affairs you must let
some power and some discretion rest
with human beings. There Is no law
that you can hedge about that will not
leave to the discretion of fran human
ity the disposal of important ques-
lions.
The president of the United States
possesses more power, probably, than
many Of the monarchs Of Europe. The
judges Of the supreme court OF the
United States possess a power over US
in saying that which we do is with
in the provisions of the constitution.
You will say that they follow prece-
dents, but Mr.. Chairman they often
times blaze the way. just as this fed
eral reserve board will.
will not consume further time, Mr..
Chairman, but l will say that IL was
the promise Of the Democratic party
to revise the tariff downward. It was
the promise Of the Democratic party
to revise our currency system in this
country and it is the purpose OF the
president of the United States and his
party associates here to fulfill those
pledges. (Applause.)

Warn Children Against
Dangers of Crossing Street.

A recent issue OF the Montgomery
journal contains very timely edtto-
dial aneut the dangers that school
children VIII soon face. In crossing
the streets TO and from school, and
suggest that the teachers be instruc-
ted to warn the children against these
dangers. The Journal says:
Il will only be a short time before
the public schools OF this city throw
open their doors to the hundreds OF
pupils who will seek admittance and
q large majority of these will be young
children. The teachers should be In
structed to warn the children Of the
danger Of street cars. automobiles and
other vehicles while crossing the
streets to and from school
This may not seem very Important
at first. but it may be the means of
girl or boy. Montgomery has a large
number of automobiles and auto trucks
and all the chauffeurs are not careful
drivers. Then again, the little tots
have a way OF playing In the streets
which is dangerous and the teachers
should give them warning before 1t is
too late.
AS is well known, these little chill
dren will cross the street in the mid
die of the block or In running TO catch
up with their playmates will dart
in front Of moving street cars and
automobiles. 1T is not always the
fault of the driver that some one is
injured or killed So 1t Is necessary
that these children be warned to keep
q sharp lookout while crossing the
streets and never play In the streets
Those who operate vehicles do not
wish to run over either children OF
grown people. So warn the children
of the danger and 1t may save some
little one from being killed or injured
Not only the eachers, but all par
ents and all guardians of the young
should endeavor to impress upon them
the necessity of care In crossing the
streets, and to instil in them the truth
that foolhardiness is never bravery
and that to avoid danger is far more
courageous than to needlessly run into
It.

editorials as follows:
enc Of the current ideas Of the time,
taken for granted by most people Is
that a man has a right to go into

money by speculative investments. and
then. If political conditions in that
country interfere with his money

for the sake OF looking after his divi-
dends.
This is not President Wilson'S view.
His conduct of the Mexican situation
has been remarkable for patience. and
for a firm but tactful adherence to
those general principles by which his
whole life and thought are guided AS
he has stated publicly, he wishes to
act 'trot IN the interest of any person
or body Of persons who may have per-
sonal or property claim in Mexico"
Those foreign newspap ers which have
been calling his policy in Mexico anna
flourish may imagine that their own
conduct OF Balkan affairs and other
complications in Europe and Asia is
professional; but they viii have hard
work to convince enlightened Ame~i-
cans that professionalism of that sort
is superior to amateurishness OF the
kind that President Wilson is exhibit

Appointment OF Mr.. Perkins.

of Pensacola would be appointed mar

Ida by grace of his cousinship to At

they declare that he is q newcomer

in politics that West Floridians do not
know whether he is a Democrat or a
Republican, and has had no experience
sufficient to fit him for the place.

Mr.. Perkins. who will hereafter be
known as "Cousin JIM" is said to be
