FORGAN DENOUNCES BILL
National Banks Would Have to
Give Up Charters, He Says.

Chicago, June 23.-Jamcs 3. Forgan
chairman of the Chicago Clearing House
Association. president of the First Ma
tional Bank of Chicago. as one of the
fifteen bankers appointed to answer
questions propounded by Congress with
reference to national monetary matters
attacked the administration currency
reform bill in a statement to-day, de-
claring the proposed bill would turn over
the banks affairs to politicians.
81 cannot conceive Of such a chaotic
measure being enacted into law by Con-
Gress," said Mr.. Forgan. III the ma
tional banks should have such a law
forced on them they would have TO give
up their charters and become state in
stitutions in self-defence."
Mr. Forgan's chief objection is to the
federal reserve clause. in which the
banks, he holds have no say in the ap-
pointment Of the reserve board members.

called frequently on Lola Morris ana
Martha Warrington, nineteen and twenty
years old, respectively at their homes TN
Sacramento. Fictitious names were given
by the men. IL is said and when they
had won the confidence and affections OF
the girls, both members Of prominent
families, the men told them they were
married. Later. It Is declared, the men
said their wives had learned Of their
dupicity and had obtained warrants for
the arrest OF the girls.
Miss Morris and Miss Warrington were
bewildered and consented to go TO Reno
with the men, where the latter were to
obtain divorces. The plan was carried
into effect, the couples going first TO a
hotel in Reno and later occupying cot
tage, where Diggs and Caminett we're
arrested on March u last on warrants OBJ
talned at Sacramento. The men were de-
livered to the federal authorities for
prosecution under the Mann white
slave" act Popular sentiment has been
such since their arrest that they have
been afraid 10 leave jail under bonds.

while the other three defendants were
officials as well as directors.

Attorney Pringle for the company,
asked that the indictments Of Bruce
and Smith be dismissed on the ground
of no evidence to connect them with
the alleged frauds. carefully studied
the evidence in the case submitted by
United States Attorney McNab and
reached the conclusion that Bruce and
Smith, who seemed men Of high char
acter, probably were innocent, as ap-
parently they were directors in the
usual sense and were unfamiliar with
the operations Of the company. In or

General McReynolds acquiesced, that

President Wilson freely discussed the
Glass currency bill with the Washington
correspondents to-day at the scmi-weekly
conference and made IT, plain that he
intends to stand as firmly behind It as
he does behind the tariff bill The gem

siders clearly defensibe. but he expects
there will be amendments for detail
The President also made IL clear IN in
formal talks with callers to-day that ne
regarded the Owcn-Glass bill as primarily
an instrument through which an emer-
gency currency OF 100000 would be
obtained. The provision 10 retire the ?
per cent bonds. which now secure SIP 60
90 Of currency had been omitted from
the bill, according to information at the
White House chiefly because no plan had
been perfected 10 substitute this amount
of currency which the volume Of bust

Purposely Scattered Reserve Banks.

'Thc objection that We would create
twelve scattered and independent banks.
instead OF one great central bank with
fifteen branches, as proposed in the Aid
rich plan is straight to the mark. we
have purposely scattered the regional re-
serve banks, and shall be intensely us
appointed II they do not exercise very
large measure Of independence.
AS to the Secretary Of the Treasury
being empowered to apportion the gov
eminent deposits among the banks. he
has possessed that power under the ex-
listing system IN varying measure for
years The exercise Of IL under the bill
which we will presently introduce may
obviate the necessity Of ever compelling
the reserve board TO direct one regional
bank TO go 10 the aid OF another. That
the board should have the right to do so
cannot be consistently contested, as II
seems to me. by anybody who favored a
scheme that placed all the reserves Of
the banking community under the sole
direction Of "A central body.
1T IS objected by Senator Burton that
our bill compels national banks to be-
come members of tho organization,
whereas the Aldrich scheme made mem
bership optional. In a sense this Ia true.
National banks must either come in or
go out Of a proposed national system.
But what Is the difference between our
bill, on one hand. compelling national
banks i'm plain terms 10 come in, and the
Aldrich scheme. on the other hand, MAX
ing II impossible for them 10 stay out? II
is refinement Of casuistry to say that
there is any substantial difference in the
two schemes on this point. One plan
would forfeit the banks charter II Il re-
fuses TO come in. while the other plan
would con1scate it's property. without re-
dress AZ law.
But. as have said 1t is not profitable
to discuss the bill I'm the papers before IL
Is introduced. Perhaps there are pro-
visions which should he altered. and.

under the left side of the bust by Z
line Of gathers covered with q row
Of small pink roses. The sleeves, too.
are outlined with roses, and there 10
a girdle Of silver gauze about the
waist. The skirt part is gathered
slightly at the belt, and extends some
ten or twelve inches below the hips.
1t consists of an under part of white
chiffon and the over part Of Chantilly.
The draping Of the Chantilly is so
arranged that the left side is consider

space Is filed in by the plain chiffon
under part. which hangs evenly with
the right side. Roses trim the edges.
Probably the most natural and effec.

partment. and incidentally they are
the least expensive.

the window catch was shattered by
a blow from a stick in the villains
hand, Helen, with wild scream, ran
from the room. closing and locking
the door behind her. The nearest
house was that of Robert Heulin, a lit.
tie over two miles away. The houses
were connected by telephone through
the central station at Rye. distant
about four miles. Hastily she rang
up Central, giving the call: TIVE

girl at the office make the connection
and, while waiting with wildly beating
heart for an answer, she heard sounds
which indicated that the tramp was
climbing in through the window. At

through the telephone. It was tho
