BILL GOES
Continued from First paye.)

Continued from First page,)
In tins bill proposes to cut the cancer
out. This we propose to do cautious
iy, graduating the operation TO pre-
valent conditions and extending II
over a period OF thirty-six months
AS to the charges that the bill con-
ferred autocratic powers upon the
federal reserve board, an alleged np-
titical hoard. and that compulsory
membership was unjust, Mr.. Glass
said, in part:
The federal reserve board Is es-
sentialiy supervisory board, and
clearly should not represent any Sec
ton, faction or type of business In
terest. 1t should represent the pub
lie as a whole. There is only one
way Of securing a board OF this kind,
namely, to have it appointed by the
president OF the United States. who
alone is the elected represe NATIVE OF
the entire nation. That Is the way
we select the secretary OF the treas
ury and the controller OF the cur
rency. in whom has been vested for
half century by the national bank
ing act nearly every power conferred
by this BIN upon the federal reserve
board.
Board VIII Not Be Political
Although the members OF the fed
eral reserve board will all be APP
pointed by the president Of the
United States, the board will not be
political board In any narrow sense
Of that term. 1t is my earnest con-
viction. based upon long and serious
reflection, that no man can conceive
AS none has yet pointed outflow
any part of this system can be per-
verified to political uses, In my
Judgment If the United States has
ever had president ingenious enough
to do this evil thing, 1t has never h4d
one desperate enough and never VIII
have one shameless enough to thus
betray the confidence OF the nation.
"T happened to be present when an
eminent banker suggested such pos
sibility to the present occupant OF the
executive chair and heard this bank
err promptly challenged to show how
1t might be done. / shall not soon
forget the emphasis with which the
president Of United States declared
that no man would ever be found who
would be willing to imperil his repu-
tation or tarnish his fame by 80 nag
rant a prostitution OF his high ONCE.
Must Play National Rnles.
Critics allege that it Is unjust ana
confiscatory to compel national banks
to invest part of their capital In
federal reserve bank. on penalty OF
forfeiture of their national characters
il they fall to do so.
II ask you in all fairness, Is 1t un-
reasonable for the government to say
70 the national banks: Gentlemen, II
you wish to retain the name national.
and to enjoy the privileges which are
conferred upon banks chartered by
the national government. you must
assume the obligations which the ma
tonal government believes the die
tates of sound banking require In the
public interest. IL you do not wish
to do so, you are perfectly free to give
UP your federal charter and to accept
the privileges and assume the obllga-
tions which state charters involve. You
may have year to decide, but II You
are to rcSain permanently In the ma
tional syDem. you must expect to play
the game according to the natic011
rules.

OUR TARIFF STEP
ON RIGHT ROAD

PARIS, Oct. I4.--Yves Guyot. the
publicist, concludes an article on the
new American tariff law by saying:
European proteetionists will be
able to repeat their old saying that 1t
is not free trade that has been grant
ed. II is not. but II is step in the
right direction. If French protection
lists were willing to do the same thing
the free traders here would be con-
tented for several years"

then the matter would have To be
submitted TO the legislature, and that
that body would have to find some
way to pay the debt IL 1t accepted
the findings of the commission.
This summary shows the position
of West Virginia in the matter. and
as seen here, it appears TO be an
other plea for time Nothing is ad-
mitted. no promise is made to pay
there is no definite statement as to
what the legislature will do The
only thing that is plain Is that time
