Wilson to Stand Pat
On Currency Measure

President Wilson Is going to stand pat
on the general principles Of the Admin
| istration banking and currency bill. He
made this plain today In his talks with
newspaper men and other callers.
The bill which has been agreed on is
| to be known as the Administration bill.
This the President made clear. He will
not stick out for its passage without
changes in detail. He Is willing to have
minor changes made and details modi-
fed. But he will not retreat SO far
as the general features Of the measure
are concerned.
One of the features he will insist on
Is Government control. as distinguished
from banking control. The President
does not believe the provisions for the
Federal reserve board should be mocD-
ned in their essential requirements. He
feels that there Is not adequate reason
why the banks should be represented on
the Federal reserve board.
Bankers Dislike Board.
Although not specifically discussed
by the President In his message. the
provision regarding the composition
of the Federal reserve board is the one
arousinc most criticism from the bank-
ing community of the country. in that
it is looked upon as placing into the
hands Of the President of The United
States a power capable of being Sc
riousry disabused for political pur-
poses At the same time the President
is known to favor 'frongly the pro-
visions surrounding this feature Of
the bill. With him they are essential
in representing a choice as between
control by the Federal Government and
control by the banking interests. In
the eyes OF the President there is no
middle ground upon which the fabric
Of the central board could be erected.
Dual reDfesPnt tim the hOa rd for
both the Government and the bankers
would result In board which. In the
eyes of the President would be neither
fish, flesh. nor fowl and would make
possible one Of the very things which
the banking community in general would
have cause to fear, namely, regulation
In the interest of certain banks. Indeed,
the President Is said to believe that the
bankers Will come to indorse the board
as proposed, just as the railroads. de-
spite the complaints which they original
ly made because of not being represent
ed on the Interstate Commerce Com
miss on, have come to indorse the COM
mission because of the fact that no set
Of railroad interests are represented.
Wilson Answers Critics.
Regarding the criticism which has
been made against the power placed in
the hands Of the central board to ix
rates Of discount, the President regards
this as necessary from the fact that the
proposed issue Of Treasury notes is not
intended as a substitute for the ex-
istlng permanent Issue Of $7l2000, 900,
guaranteed by per cent Government
bonds. but would only be issued in an
emergency. Therefore. in order to con-
troll the use Of these emergency funds,

Robert Berberich Sons, shoe merchants,
have laid, great plans for their ami
versary week starting today to celebrate
the fifty-fifth anniversary of their es-
tablishment in Washington. which means
fifty-five years Of success in catering to
the buyers OF the Capital.
During all Of this week the Berberich
stores will be in holiday attire and every
customer at the two stores of the COM
pany at 1ll6 to 1l22 Seventh Street North
west and S13 Pennsylvania Avenue North
west will be welcomed and reminded of
the occasion that is being celebrated by
the gift of an appropriate present
The manufacturers of the well-known
Patrician and la France shoes for
women and the Burrojaps and Steadfast
shoes for men are cooperating in the
anniversary week and with every pur-
chase of these famous shoes there will
be given two One-pound boxes OF old
fashioned chocolate candles and in addi-
ton. a bouquet Of roses to each woman
customer and a box OF twenty-five 10
cent cigars or a pair of fine kid gloves
to every man purchaser.
The start of the Robert Berberich'
Sons Company in the Capital was made
in 1853. In comparison TO the business of
the company OF today. the start was a
small one. BY adhering to the strictest
principals OF business integrity to Gus
toner and fellow-industries, the firm has
so increased its scope that II is now
rated as one OF the largest and most re-
liable retail shoe companies in the South.
1t has won a wide friendship in Wash

Il think that the styles are being car

pear to have lost their sense Of pro-

that there are Il large class OF women

MANS GOLDEN Age"
SAID TO BE ENDED
Socialists, After Sufragist Address,
Are Convinced that Change
Is Imminent.
MISS THOMPSON THE SPEAKER

\ symposium on the passing of the
Golden Age Of Man" was held at
Pythian Temple last night by the local
Socialist organization. Some few re-
grets there were that the male crea-
ture, so long a privileged pet of Dame
Fortune, soon must strive for each one
of life's gifts on equal terms with the
women. few melancholy words were
dedicated to the memory of his vanish
ing absolute power. and then a paeon
Of praise and Thanksgiving was raised
10 the period now imminent of domin-
ion by men and women alike. This
symposium was the result of an equal
suffrage address by Miss Clara Louise
Thompson. leader of the Missouri
movement" in suffrage.
In dispassiOnate argument, Miss
Thompson forced her hearers to sec
with her equal suffrage as an accom-
plished fact in the near future. She
the movement.
When Miss Thompson had concluded
her address. one of her male hearers
tacle of the men OF today with their
backs against the wall making a last
vain fight 10 maintain the privileges of
their Golden Age was a pitiful one.
Throughout all the ages, he continued,
the men have sought to train up a race
of women so contiding. weak and inca
pable OF resistance that rebellion against
mans dominion was out of the question.
These efforts have failed, he said, and
woman has awakened to the conscious
ness that she is a female man." and
the days will be short until she enters
into her empire.
