MARTINS TESTIMONY
DENIED BY STANLEY
Kentucky Csasressnan Says He Pre-
pared Steel Trust investigating
Resolution Without Aid.

Representative Stanley Of Kentucky,
author Of the Steel Trust investigation.
and chairman of the investigating COM
mittee, in a speech in the House yes
terday. branded as ridiculous the as
sertions of David Lamar and Edward
Lauterbach that they drew up the res
olution for the investigation
Stanley declared it was absurd for
them to claim they were ''the power
behind the throne" in the inquiry. He
said he had offered the resolution. and
had been working for its advancement
long before May. 1911, when II was put
through.
He admitted that Henry B. Martin,
secretary Of the Antitrust League. who
testified before the Senate Lobby Com
mittee that he brought the resolution
to Stanley. had brought him much In
formation. but brought no resolution
Representative Stanley referred to Da-
vid Lamar as "A creature" saying:
Long before 1 knew Martin or ever
heard of this creature. Lamar. was
before the Judiciary Committee Of the
House trying to get out my resolution.
This was In April. 1910. and the reso-
luton was reported. although the Presi-
dent and Attorney General wickershanl
were against II. 1t was not acted on by
the House, and a year later intrO-
iuced 1t before the Rules Committed"
Representative Austin asked II Henry
B. Martins statement was true, and II
he steel Investigation merely, was due
% the Antitrust League.
Absolutely not" said Stanley. .WAen
he resolution was before the Rules Com
nittee. Martin brought me a bale of
documents explaining that members of
congress. including Representative suI-
er and Representative Rucker Of Colo
ado. were members OF his league
ook the document. but Martin MAYER
repaired any resolution which I offered.
md members Of this House know Lvas
m the trail Of the Steel Trust for more

eported and before knew Martin"

should Not Guarantee.

In regard to notes issued by the pro-
posed institution, Mr.. Reynolds contends
that the government should neither
guarantee them nor undertake respon-
sibility for their redemption in gold.
He argues strongly in support of these
views, and banking precedent else
where sustains him. These obligations
would belong to the Federal reserve
hanks. and if an added responsibility be
placed upon the government through
compelling it to maintain gold reserve
against these notes. a burden with en-
barrassing possibilities might result.
Mr. Reynolds does not overlook the
necessity for an adequate gold reserve to
be maintained by the Federal reserve
banks. He recommends that the per-
centage of reserve to liabilities be not
less than so per cent in gold. which is
one-sixth more than the bill now pro-
vides for. By securing the notes of the
banks with their liquid assets, and max
ing them a first lien. in addition to the
double liability of the stockholders the
Chicago banker believes the needed Sc
curity would be furnished. He also
contends that the notes issued by the
proposed institution should be unlimited,
and that only the necessities of business
should regulate the volume. Estimates
would be but guess work.

The baggage men working between

On division passenger runs, such as

The currency measure finds much more

Of long business, and affects the veritable

The strongest point of opposition seems
to center in the determination OF the
government as represented by the admin

The same authority calls attention to
the fact that the measure in its present
form fails TO set a limit to the aggregate
redisCounts of any one bank. Unlimited
right to rediscount would unquestionably
lead to imitation with the chances of the

when -er imitation is pronounced. Mr..
Reynolds suggests that a banks reds-

bankers generally will approve his view.
Liking the Federal reserve board to
the Interstate Commerce Commission is
not consistent, for the reason that an
appeal may be taken by the railroads.
whereas no appeal is provided for in
the measure under consideration.
