BANKERS REcoNcILED
 TO CURRENCY DILL. Administration Ready to Remove Ob- jectionabIe Features.

Chicago, Aug 22.-A spirit of con ciliation and compromise toward the Owen Glass currency bill as it is be- fested at a confereHce of leading bank CTS from all parts of the country held here today Before the conference ad- journs tomorrow it is expected that the resolution recommending a num- Der of important changes in the cur rency bill pending in congress will be adopted and the bankers will use their influence to assist President Wilson in obtaining currency legislation.
 The change in the attitude of the bankers developed. after George R. Reynolds. president of the Continental and Commercial National bank, had addressed the meeting and told of an important conference he held in New York yesterday with Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo, at which amend ments to the currency bill desired by the bankers were discussed, and assur- ances given that the administration was willing to remedy every reason able objection to the measure. MT. Reynolds was summoned to New York to confer with Secretary McAdoo last Wednesday to discuss the attitude of the bankers toward the proposed legis- lation. MT. Reynolds outlined the principal objeetiens-of the bankers, to the measure, and when he returned to Chicago today he felt confident the administration would make q mum ber of concessions in the final draft of the bill

dressed to Chairman Carter Glass of the currnecy committee approved the bill as 1t stands, declaring President Wilson had recognized fundamental rights of popular control in it's pro- visions. He asserted that the plank of the democratic platform against inter- locking directorates was aimed chiefly at trusts and he urged democrats to stand by the president" and not to load down the currnecy bill with any amendments that might endanver it's early passage.
 Approval of Glass Bill Forecasted
 Fortified with the backing of one of the makers of the Baltimore platform Representatives Glass and Underwood met the demand for an amendment to prohibit interlocking directorates with a counter proposal that the democrats of the house take u geAeral legislation against interlocking directorates at the next session. A resolution by Rep resentative Underwood, adopted by vote of 130 to 50, referred the entire subject to the democratic members of the judiciary committee of the house. and directed them to bring in bill at the next session of congress that would prevent interlocking dlrectorates of all kinds.
 Administration leaders tonight said the large vote that supported the Un- O6IWOOu anu Lno hearty dp- prOVal that greeted Secretary Bry S endorsement of the bill assured the ap- proval of the complete Glass bill with but little change. There remain Sev- eral important amendments to be con sidered. but it was declared that the only important modification would be i a change to make it clear that agri- cultural paper be given the same cred- it as commercial or industrial paper.
  The amendment over which the fight Waged throughout the day had been offered by Representative Neeley of Kansas, one of the so- called 'insur- gent members of the banking and currency committee. It was not until near the close of the session that Chair man Glass, after declaring that Presi- dent Wilson did not want such an amendment incorporated In the bill, brought forth the Bryan letter,
 Objectlng members who had ques- toned Mir. Glass interpretation of the presidents attitude, gave way before the vigorous assertions of Secretary Bryan. and a vote quickly settled the question,
 Applies More to Trusts Than Banks.
 In his letter Secretary Bryan deeIar- ed that for many years he had adve- cated a law preventing a duplication of directerates.
 While the principle applies to banks as we'll as to tfusts-a1though, I think, in a. less degree" the secretary wrote, "the plan has been considered mainly as a means of dealing with the trust evil.
 T am as much in favor of the rem edy now as I was when I began to advocate it; in fact, more so, because recent disclosures have given further proof of the employment of this means of eliminating competition; but I do not think it wise to make it a part of the pending currency bill"

onlq," and the latter asserting that the woole schedule as prepared by the majority was distinctly against Amer ica and for Europe.
 LaFoIlette's Substitute.
 In the midst of the days discussion Senator LaF'ollette of Wisconsin intro duced the third minority substitute for the woolen schedule, the others having been proposed by Senators Penrose and Smoot. The wide diver gence of minority views on the subject of wool demonstrated in this triumvi- rate of measures was pleasing to dem- ocratic leaders, who confidently assert ed that they did not need to talk be- cause i've have the votes.'
 Though no effort will be made by Chairman Simmons of the finance committee and other majority members to get a vote on the woolen schedule by tomorrow night. the vote may be prolonged until next week, Senators Smoot and LaFollette planning to de- bate the measure at length.
 15 Per Cent. Ad VaIorem on First
 Grade.
 Senator LaFollette-s proposal was distinguished chiefly by it's rate of 15 per cent ad valorem on first grade raw wool, a rate originally suggested by democrats of the house ways and means committee before President Wilson insisted upon free raw wool. The LaFollette measure also proposed that a second grade raw wools be free and would provide ad valorem instead of specific rates throughout, contrary to the recommendation of the tariff board and the views of his republican colleagues, Senators Shoot and Pen rose.
 His own amendment. Senator Pen rose believed to be in accordance with the desire of great majority of the American peopleyzfor protection, while making considerable reductions from the existing law.
 Lippitt criticises Finance Committee.
 Senator Lppitt of Rhode Island crit icised the action of the finance. com mittee majority in reducing the house rate of 1 , per cent. on conbed wool or tops to five per cent The Rhode Is land senator asserted that the domestic cost of converting raw wool into comb ed tops was nearly twice as much as the foreign cost
