CALLS GLASS BILL
MONEY TRUST" FOE
Untermeyer Tells Senators
Currency Measure will
Serve Great Good.

Pronouncing the Owen-Glass bill the
logical remedy 70 rthe Money trust evil.
Samuel Untermeyer. arch-enemy of the
Morgan banking group. told the Senate
Currency Committee today that ten
banks in the Morgan-Baker group in
New York control the reserve deposits
rof i5,4S3 banks. or 50 per cent Of the
total throughout the United States
The banks Of this country" he said,
should welcome this measure as a pro-
lection to which they may fly from the
domination exercised by this New York
group"
Senator Weeks Of Massachusetts,
sharply questioned Untermeyer's state
ments during the day, declaring that the
Money trust Investigators had "tried to
dig up numbe rof things" without ac-
curate knowledge. He particularly
challenged the claim that Lee Higgin-
son & Co.. Of Boston, were in the Nor
gan-Baker combination
The connection may not come through
1T may rest upon common holding
OF Industrial securities. Do You think
that the Boston bank would make a loan
for promoting competition to the
United States Steel Corporation?'
Weeks replied that that would depend
on whether the loan were a desirable
one.
Untermeyer insisted upon the findings
of the Pujo committee, that the Money
trust exercises a "malign influence"
any great project that may compete
with its own Industrial interests.
II am an unqualified champion Of the
fundamental principles Of this bill"
said Untermeyer 81 approve the is
suance curreny subject to Federal con-
troll. I believe the measure is over
generous to bank in that it raises up
no competitor to Them.

GOVERNMENT T0PAY
PRINTERS HELPERS
Will Adopt Direct Method of
Per Diem Wages, Instead of
Piece Work System.

Piece work rates paid to plate print
ers in the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing will be reduced to permit the
Government to assume, without extra
expense. the direct payment of per
diem wages to plate printers helpers,
according to a statement made today
by Director Ralph, of the bureau.
A meeting of plate printers helpers
in Typographical Temple yesterday
afternoon expressed a decided prefer
ence for the per diem plan of payment
as opposed to the piece work system.
Director Ralph says it is immaterial
to himself and to the Treasury Depart
ment which method of payment is pre-
ierred. but that since the helpers want
a continuation of the per diem system
of pay, the Government will hereafter
pay the entire amount, rather than so
cents of the s1.75 a day the helper
earns.
No Changes In Salaries.
Director Ralph was unable to say at
what time the Treasury officials and
the plate printers would meet to eff
feet revised wage scale for the print
ers. The plan, as outlined. releases the
plate printer from the burden OF 81 %
a day he pays to his helper, and this
salary hereafter will be paid by the
Government. To balance this expense
the Government will then reduce the
rate on piece work.
Although the plate printers, Director
Ralph says. will receive the same net
salary and the girls will suffer no
change, the Treasury Department pre-
ferS to pay the helpers direct rather
than collect $l.2j from the plate printer
each day and then add 80 cents to make
up the helpers salary. The whole sys-
TEN is said to be indirect and faulty.
Sought Girls Preference.
The meeting at Typographical Tenn
pie was not a protest, the director said
No protest was necessary. he stated,
as the Treasury officials had no idea of
installing a piece-work system unless
the girls expressed a preference for the
method. According TO the director, the
Secretary of the Treasury was anxious
to learn what method was popular in
the bureau before any move was made
toward changing the system of salary
payments.
The 10 per cent increase in pay asked
by the girls will not be Immediately
granted If at all. Director Ralph said
he would not recommend the appropria-
ton at this time, and that even were
an immediate recommendation made,
the appropriation would be long time
coming.
The girls base their demand for a 10
per cent increase on the fact that the
Government has effected a great saving
in the cost of printing its money by the
installation of labor-saving presses at
the bureau, and the girls wish to
share part OF the saving aCcruing to
the Treasury Department.

TREASURY TO RETAIN
ITS MONEY LAUNDRY
Congressional Opposition to the
Machines Believed to Have
Been Won Over.

Opposition in Congress to the money
washing machines of the Treasury
that renew old bills. has been consid-
erably Modified by Treasurer John
Burke. Congressional opposition, 1t Is
believed will be withdrawn, as re-
suit Of a little diplomacy by the Treas
urer.
Senator MARITIME, leader of the oppo-
sition. who sponsored a resolution to
abolish the machines. and wipe the
washing system from the map, is no
longer an opponent. Senator MARITIME
called at the Treasury a few days ago.
He was taken down and given formal
Introduction to the washing machines.
He saw them in operation. examined
the product. looked thoughtful and
then departed In leaving he declared
tTiat he was satisfied with the ma
chimes and that no further opposition
need be expected from him. He is re-
ported to have said. you will have
no further trouble from me-"
Members Won Over.
Other Senators and Congressman,
calling upon the Treasurer are induced
to visit the money laundy. There they
are shown all the processes and are
offered newly washed bills in exchange.
Many of them, not familiar with the
machines, but accepting the charges
aginst them to face value, have been
won over.
Treasurer Burke said today that he
was of an open mind on the machines,
and that if the people did not want
washed currency, or If Congress did
not want the machine. he was perfect
ly willing to send them out we will
give the people what they want in
currency" he said, 'and are willing to
abide the wishes of Congress. but /
would like to see careful consideration
and a knowledge of the machines and
their work. before action against them
is finally taken"
As result of this attitude and the
familiariZnE Of Congressman with the
machines 1t seems that they have
come to stay. as Senator MARITIME, was
the forefront of the opposition.
Cannot Wash All Bills.
The machines wash only the silver
certificates, or about 10 per cent of the
currency. The gold certificates can
not be washed because the yellow tint,
suggestive Of gold. will fade in the
process The far-famed Sreenbacks
are also immune from the cleansing
process because the red seal on them
shows through to the back after wash
ing.
Each of the machines installed by the
Government will save $500 in day s
operation. according to the Treasurers S
Office They will wash a package of
81, 90 for ~ cents, whereas It costs Sl.3O
to print this much in new bills.

The police arrangements in the i'm

empty streets were in striking contrast
to those blocks beyond, where the

DUTY-FREE BANANAS
NOT TO CUT COST
Tariff So Slight That the Con-
sumer Will Derive Little or
No Benefit.

Colonel High. Of the Cost-O- Living
Brigade, Is not doomed to total sur
render. even IL the Democratic tariff has
bananas on the free list. The colonel
will continue right along on his pedestal.
and the placing Of the luscious southern
fruit in the class without duty will make
only an infinitesimal difference, II any,
to the consumer.
Washington dealers in bananas re-
ceive on an average OF fifteen carloads
the new tariff law, at only q slight re-
duction in the present cost. On one
bunch Of fruit, the .tarin 10 less than
2 cents, and where the consumer who
buys an occasional dozen Is going to
reap any magnificent reductions in price
Is hard to see.

eater thereof.
Following a conference at the White
House today President Wilson, Chairman
Simmons of the Senate Finance Com
mittee. Senator Hoke Smith Of Georgia
and Chairman Underwood OF the Houao
Ways and Means Committee. ii became
known that the President is expecting
to sign the Underwood tariff bill with
in the next two or three days
The President was informed that the
differences between the House and Sem
ate are being rapidly adjusted in The
conference committee. From time to
time the President himself has advised
with Senator Simmons and Mr.. Under
wood regarding differences between the
two branches. 1t Is understood that
Senator Smith this morning took up
with the President the Clark amend
ment placing a tax of one-tenth Of I
per cent on cotton futures, which are
not delivered.
The President told Mr.. Underwood
that he was anxious that the con-
ference committee should reach a
satisfactory agreement, so that when
it reports the bill hack to the House
there might be no appearance of dis
agreement to block the immediate ac-
ceptance Of the committees report.
Mr.. Underwood advised the Presi-
dent that there was every indication
that the conferees would get to-
gether, and that the way was paved
for an early adjustment of the dif-
hcrlties regarding the cotton, lead.

which the Senate made changes.
