WILSON EXPLAINS.
OFFER OF NJ 'ADOO
Declares Announcement of Bio
Sum in Treasury for Banks
Is for Information.

To further allay any misapprehension
that might be felt because of the
announcement by Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo that the Government
was prepared TO place in circulation
$500 200 in emergency surrency. Presi-
dent Wilson has reiterated the state
ment of the Secretary that public
announcement was made at this time
merely for the information OF bankers
and others to let them know that the
Administration is prepared to act in
case Of emergency under existing cul-
rency laws.
At a meeting of the newspaper cabl-
net the President declared that there
was no Interior significance in the
announcement. 1t was not made. he
said, because Of any expectato on of
unusual disturbance following the oas-
sage Of the tariff bill. 1t was made to
INFORM bankers as to the powers of the
treasurer under existing laws
The President said that he expected
currency legislation might be delayed
Ior q while but that action would be
taKen oefore adjournment of the session.
Senator Penrose is, 1t seems. inclined
70 pessimistic view of the announce
ment; In speaking of it, he said:
when life-preservers and life-boats
are being made ready. the proceeding
the passengers"
Senator Penrose declared that he
could see no reason for such an an
nouncement now, that there were no
crops to move at this time. He COM
pared present conditions with those
prevailing In Cleveland's second Ad-
rn;nistration. The fact remains, he
said, that the proposed tariff legis-
lation threatens so many manufac-
turers. particularly small manufactur-
erS. and continual outcropping of
radical suggestions regarding cur
rency and railroads has brought ap-
prehension which is reflected in the
extraordinary drop in securities on
the exchanges.
Washington bankers, on the other
hand, are convinced that there is no
prevailing condition here. or else
where, that would make issuance of
emergency currency necessary. No
emergency currency is needed in
