WILL TRY TO CARRY
CURRENCY BILL OVER
TO REGULAR SESSION
Resolution Would Have Sen
ate Committee Withhold
RepOrt-HOuse Commit
tee Completes Work

Washington September 4.--The SEN
ate was put upon notice today of an
effort to carry the currency revision
question over until the regular session,
when Senator Works, republican mem
ber of the committee now conducting
currency hearings, presented a resolu-
tion to direct the committee to with
hold its report until December 2. The
resolution will be brought up tomor-
row The democratic leaders were con
fident the movement would receive sup
port only from the republicans.
Senator Hitchcock, democrat, said he
did not believe the Senate should enact
currency legislation until 1T had full
information and an opportunity TO
reach sound conclusions. He probably
will advocate continuation of the eX-
ira session until it can be determined
whether there is a chance of appro-
pirate legislation in the near future.
House Completes Work
The House currency committee COM
pleted work on the administration bill
today and Chairman Glass will report
the measure to the House. Representa-
tive Ragsdale, democrat one of the
House committee insurgents" made a
final effort to have the time limit on
rediseount8ble agricultural notes ex-
tended from 80 days to 120 days, but
was beaten by a vote of 8 to 7. He
left the committee meeting after this
defeat.
Representatives of the American
Bankers association at the hearings
before the Senate committee today
again attacked what they called the
force" provisions of the administrd :
tion bill and predicted failure for the
proposed new government banking sys-
tenn unless important amendments are
made.
Robert F. Maddox, vice president OF
the American National bank of Atlanta
said country banks would vigorously OPP
pose the new plan unless the provision
making all checks payable at par" in
the regional reserve banks was stricken
out of the bill George NJ Reynolds and
j. b. F'orean of Chicago also supported
this idea.
The small banks often derive from
5000 to $4,000 of their yearly income from
the exchange collected on out of town
checks" said Mr.. Maddox. 'If the new
law should make all checks payable at par
in the reserve bnaks, it would force all
hanks to stop charging exchange
The bankers recommended that only
checks drawn by member banks upon
one of the regional reserve banks be ac-
cepted at par by other banks They said
the large banks of the country We're now
trying to work out general system of
par collection of checks, but that the
small institutions persistently refused to
give up their right to charge for collec-
tions.
Joseph Chapman, iJr,, vice president of
the Northwestern National bank Of Min
neapolis, presented the objections of the
Chicago bankers conference to the fea-
ture of the dill which would give tho fed

regional reserve bank to discount pape.

ALABAMA FARMERS
WILL Be INVITED TO
THE LAND CONGRESS
Addresses Will Be Such That
as Many as Possible Will
Be Urged to Attend
Sessions

The farmers of Alabama are going to
be invited to come to Birmingham They
wiH be asked to participate in the pro-
ceedings of the Alabama Land Congress,
which meets in this city the first week in
November, next.
AS the subjects that will be discussed
before the land congress are all pertinent
to the work of the farmers, or relate di-
rectly or indirectly to agricultural mat
ters. 1t has been determined by the man
agement of the land congress, with the
aid of the Birmingham Chamber of Com
merce. to bring as many farmers to this
meeting as possible.
it was said of one address at the Mo-
bile meeting that it should have been
heard by every farmer in Alabama, and as
that same man will address the approach
ing congress on the same subject it is
regarded as most important that as many
of the farming classes as possible should
hear him at this meeting.
This matter was discussed yesterday
between Col n. F. Thompson, president
of the land congress, and w. p G. Hard
ing, president of the Chamber of Conn
merce, and the latter was very enthusi-
astic over the matter, although the dele
gates already appointed embrace the
leading farmers in their respective coun-
ties. But Mr.. Harding thought that the
farmers Immediately adjacent to Birming-
ham should have special efforts made to
get them here at that time.
It is likely that it will be placed in the
hands of the farm movement committee,
or possibly the Immigration committee,
which is going actively in the work of en-
deavorng to make the land congress a
success, as one of the distinct objects of
the congress is to induce more farmers to
come to Alabama.
w. p. G. Harding is chairman of the
finance committee of the land congress.
and he will discuss a matter that is of
vital interest to the farmers of Alabama,
viz: Rural Credits"
Governor O'Neal has also been invited
to discuss this same subject, as he has
for some time.
An invitation has also been extended to
Lee Cowart the commissioner of immi-
grafton for Alabama, to be one of the
speakers on the subject of immigration,
the chief address on that subject to be
delivered by John l.. Burnett, chairman of
the committee on immigration and nat
uralizaton of the House of Representa-
tives at Washington.
The various farmers organizations
throughout Alabama, especially the Farm
efs unions, will be urged to cooperate in
the matter of getting as many farmers
to attend the land congress as possible,
and as the crops will be nearly all gath
cred by that time, it is thought that this
meeting will be the largest of it's kind ever
held in Alabama
The programme of the land congress is
now about filled and this will be printed
in the near future and distributed
throughout the state. The matter of a
place for holding the Hand congress has
not yet been selected, and the much talked
of auditorium would now come in to great
advantage.
