the criticisms of the new currency
bill made by the conference of bank
ers at Chicago will be a Tightening
I'D of the lines and a more vigorous
Endorsement of the bill as II no"
stands. Informal conferences OF the
Democratic members of the house
currency committee emphasized the
fact that the active supporters OF the
presidents currency plan expect TO
put the measure through the house
without substantial change.
The amendments proposed by the
bankers, it was pointed out by the
house leaders, were all considered in
detail when the bill originally was
prepared and in the long debate over
its provisions in the house commit
tee on banking and currency. The
proposal to reduce the quantity of re-
serves and give country banks the
privilege of keeping part of their re-
serves in the large cities had MANY
supporters and ultimately may be
worked into the bill in the senate, but
the change is not expected In the
house.
The bankers will have an opportuni-
ty to present their views openly to
congress after the currency bill gets
into the senate. Chairman Owen OF
the senate currency committee said
that while hearings had not yet been
arranged, he expected leading repre-
sentatives of the various factions
amongst the bankers of the country
would be invited to give their views
of the bill to the senate committee

proposal to reduce somewhat the
quantity of the reserves" said Sena
tor Owen. 1--WE have not discussed
the new legislation sufficiently in com
mittee, however, to know what chang
es may be made in the bill"
