REPUBLICANS
OBJECT TO THE
CURRENCY BILL
BY The United Press.

BY The United Press.
WASHINGTON, Sept But three
vital objections to the Glass currency
bill we're found by Republican mem-
bers OF the House Banking and Cur
rency Committee. according to the
minority report filed today. They
were:
The compulsory purchase Of fed
eral reserve bank stock by national
banks.
Issuance Of federal reserve notes
as government obligations.
Unlimited powers bestowed on the
federal reserve board by the provi-
sions of the bill.
1--WE regret that the majority mem
bers Of the committee were so bound
by caucus action that they could not
consider amendments to the bill--
which II adopted would have eliml-
mated the unsound and questionable
provisions" the report declared
"such changes while comparative.
ly few in number, are fundamental
and vital"
The report closed with the state
ment that "other minor imperiec
tions" in the bill will be pointed ou'
on the floor of the House.
