Washington, ID. c., Nov. 6.-Tht
currency system will be owned by Tho
people and regional banks will be con
trolled by the government. The sen
ate banking committee today incor
porated that feature in the admins
tration currency bill by vote Of
seven to five.
Senators Reed and Hitchcock, Dem
ocrats, voting for the resolution ovel
the protests OF Senators Owen, Penn
creme, Shafroth, Hollis and O'Gorman
the remaining Democrats. Jointly
framed by Senators Reed Hitchcock
and Weeks, the resolution was regard
ed by some as the basis of a com
promise between the White House
and the senators in control on the
committee.
The provision in the house bill to
compel national banks to subscribe 10
per cent of their capital to the new
system, under penalty of losing their
charters, would be eliminated If after
60 days the public had not subscribed
all the capital the banks entering the
system would be required to take up
the remaining stock. That was one
of the proposals of the Vanderlip
plan.
Control of the regional banks was
settled by a compromise resolution
offered by Senator Weeks, providing
that each regional bank have nine
directors, five to be selected by the
government federal reserve board and
four by the banks. Under the house
bill, six of the nine would be chosen
by the banks,
The action today is about to have
cleared the way for an agreement in
the committee and may hasten prog
ress of the bill
President Wilson has been conduct
ing informal conferences with Demo
cratic senators over the currency sit
uation and many are urging party
conference, not necessarily in the
sense of caucus but as a movement
to make the Democratic party sponsor
for the bill in the form the admins
tration wants ii shaped.
Talk of caucus to take the bill out
of the hands of the committee was re.
vived after the administration forces
were outvoted today. Senate leaders
sent out notices to all Democratic alb
sentees urging them to return at once.
New York, Nov. 6.--Jacob Fl. Schiff,
The banker, told members of the cham
ber Of commerce today that the fnan.
cial measures of this country must be
adjusted within short time or seri-
)us situation would result.
''lf the currency measure is not
amended and we get away

le said, I'VE will confront very diff
cult conditions. Partisanship at this
line time is out of place. What we
leed is good citizenship. think
great mistake is being made, especial
y in the east. That is, maintaining
he attitude that if we can't get what
We want in currency legislation, we
would rather have no change. The
bill has so much good in it
hat to say it is all bad is not states
but partisanship.
Mr.. Schiffs speech was an impromp-
u one made after A. Barton Hep.
ourn, president of the Chase national

committee of the chamber of COM
nerce be appointed to go to Washing
on to bring it's influence to bear on

"And there went before them by
night a pillar of fire to give them
light."-Ex. XIII, 81.
For the first time in history, since
that marvellous light brought the peo-
pie Of Israel out of bondage, another
pillar Of fire will be used to call the
people of the world from labor to re-
freshment at Tulsa.
The largest gas we'll in the world
is located within few miles of
Tulsa. 1t is being piped into the
middle Of the exposition grounds used
by the international Dry-Farming
Congress. 1t flows thirty million
cubic feet Of natural gas daily and
when it is turned loose and lighted
on the night of October 90 the Wis
itors and delegates to the Congress
will witness sight that for awe
inspiring magnificence has never
been equalled.
Six hundred feet straight into the
air the gas is shot by natures
force below. Its noise is like that
of an avalanche; its power that Of
the cyclone. It will be controlled
and ignited by electricity from dis
