CURRENCY BILL LIKELY
s.. TO Be LAW NEXT WEEK
Congress Expected to Take
Long Rest Following Its
Passage.
Senator O'Gorman Predicts Senate
Will Reach Decisive Vote
q by Saturday Night.

That the currency bill will be passed
by the Senate early next week. and prob
ably will be sent to the President for his
signature, after a conference between
the representatives of the Senate and
House, by December 20 was the predic-
ton made by leaders in the Senate today.
Senator O'Gorman of New York even
went so far as 10 say that the bill would
be passed by the Senate by Saturday
night.
1t is not anticipated that the bill will
be long in conference, though the Senate
is planning 10 amend the bill in many
particulars 1t is considered likely that
the two houses will take their differences
to the President and that they will be
reconcled at the White House.
May Take Months Rest.
When the currency bin is finally out
of the way Congress will take a recess
for the Christmas holidays. 1t was sug-
gested today that this recess may be
extended to four weeks, in view of the
long continuous period that Congress has
been in session.
The debate on the currency bill began
again in the Senate early today, follow
ing another wrangle betwt en- Senator
owen, chairman of the banking and cur
rency committee. and Senator Gallinger
republican leader of the Senate, as to
just what Senator owen had said about
call for a quorum made by Senator
Gallinger
After a declaration by Senator Cal
linSer that the discussion was a tenn
pest in a teapot. that the country GER
tainly cared nothing about it. and that
il would be much better to get on with
the currency bill. the argument sub
sided.
Advocates Hitchcock Bill.
Senator Nelson of Minnesota resumed
his discussion of the currency measure,
aGVoIst.ins the passage OF the Hitchcock
bill as opposed to the owen bill. Senator
Nelson said that some of the senators
had declared the floor that there was
little practical difference between the
two bills.
"A senator who takes thie I,~e't'o,, :"
said Senator Nelson, shows that he
knows nothing about what is in either
bill He is for anything that the spirit
of democracy and the democratic caucus
may dictate"

Under Federal Control.

THE ideal banking system for our coun.
try, in my opinion, would be one central
bank controlled by the government. the
stock of which should be owned by the
people in small subscriptions. so as to
give the widest possible diversity of own
ership among our population. Such hank
should be the depository of the reserves
of all the banks of the nation. and also
the depository of all government funds
1t should be bank of issue and a bank
of discount. This bank should establish
branches in every commercial center
throughout the country where the bust
ness OF the people required them. and
having one great central reservoir into
which Is deposited the reserves Of the
country, these reserves could be utilized
SO as to render the greatest possible
service TO the banking system.
This financial heart would send through
its branches the currents OF financial aid.
and stimulate everywhere the commercial
and industrial life of the nation. But
our section of the committee realized
that under the present political situa-
ton that confronts us. the executive
having taken the position that he will not
consent to such a bank. a measure OF
that kind, however desirable, cannot be
enacted. Therefore we abandon the idea
of a central bank. and have undertaken
to organize a regional banking system
having as nearly as possible all OF the
advantages of the central banking sys-
TEN and minimizing as far as Is prac-
ticable the weakness Of the regional sys-
tenn.

Four Regional Reserve Banks.

We have recommended four regional
reserve banks. One of these necessarily
would be located at New York. one at
Chicago and one at St. Louis, these being
the central reserve cities which have been
created in response to the normal business
demands of the nation Into these cities
are now massed the reserves OF more
than $50 reserve city banks, as well as OF
thousands of other banks throughout the
country Such locations would conform
the regional system as nearly as possible
to existing conditions and disturb as little
as practicable the normal operation OF
the country's business In transferring the
reserves from one system to another. In
addition we recognize that San Francisco
being the great METROPOLIS of the Pacino
coast there might with some advantage
be established there a regional reserve
bank to serve that section OF the country
I'VE have provided that regional banks
shall establish branches in their terri
tory wherever the business Of the country
demands it, In both bills provision is
made for the establishment OF branches
by the regional banks. So that each
regional bank in either plan is for Its
district central bank.
