RESPONDENT Of the United Press.l
WASHINGTON, June 23-Stripped
Of all verbiage and technicalities,
there are possible only two alterna-
tiyes in reforming the currency in the
opinion of President Wilson. They are
whether the people themselves shall
hold the power. And because of this
. fact the whole strength of the ad-
ministration has been thrown behind
tile Wilson-Glass measure to be in
tioduced this week. The president
intends that every possible weap-
on at his disposal shall be utiliz-
ed to make the bill practically az it
stands, law. at his conference with
the correspondents, the president to-
day explained that he considers the
currency bill Just as much Of an ad-
ministration measure as the Wilson
Underwood tariff bill. The country
needs currency reform just as arg-
emily as 1t does the reductions in the
cost OF living. The proposed measure
may not be perfect-the president ad-
mits that he does not so consider it,
but he insists that it is o long step
ia the right direction.
The proposal that the president
ahall appoint the central board Of
control with the consent of the sen
ate, will not be changed. If Wilson
can help 1t, no matter how much the
bankers may object. To the charge
that such plan places too much pow,
er in the hands OF the political pres
ident" President Wilson replies that
he does not consider there is pos
sibility in the history OF this country
where a person would be audacious
enough to play politics with the credi
of the nation.''
Because the banking system touches
everybody the president believes con
troll Of the general finances of thu
country should repose here since th'
president and congress are directl,
responsible to the people. He consid
ers that the proposal to have a fec
eral board of control named by tn
executive is in line with the presen
system of railroad control. He re
called to his visitors today that whe
it was proposed to name an interstat
commerce commission which did nc
have to be composed of railroad me
there was general complaint froi
the railroad men and bankers. Ye
he reasons that now they would p
the first to oppose abolishment of tn
commission. Similarly the presider
insisted that he believed that once tn
proposed banking commission is
operation It will prove fully as pop
lar and work as beneficial as the raj
road commission. The criticism
the proposed law that 1t fails to retil
the existing currency which was
sued by the national banks safeguar
ed by bond deposits does not anpe
to the president. Were 1t brought u
der the proposed law the preside
says 1t would become emergency CT
rency, subject to the same regrl
tons which operate over the emel
ency issue of $500,000,000 which t
law authorizes. This emergency iss
