FIGHT BREWS IN SENATE
TONCREASE currency
Owen Bill, Called Up for Considers
ton, Provokes Discussion,
But Goes Over.

What promises to be prolonged
fight over proposed amendments to the
emergency currency and federal re-
serve acts was begun In the Senate
yesterday afternoon, when Senator
Owen. chairman of the banking and
currency committee, called up for con-
sideration a bill amending the emer-
gency currency act SO as to increase
the limit of such currency which may
be issued against commercial paper
from 30 to rs per cent OF the unim-
paired capital and surplus of banking
associations.
Senator Smoot of Utah criticised the
amendment. declaring that 1t was all
of a piece with the tendency mani
tested in Congress to permit huge in
f1ation of the currency OF the country.
Senator Borah Of Idaho insisted that
the banks would avail themselves Of
such a change for the purpose of put
ting this currency out at high rates Of
interest to the people.
Can you show me how we can put
this money into the hands of the peo-
pie at low rate of INTEREST,"" he
asked.
Would Limit Bank Charges.
Senator Hoke Smith Of Georgia PRO-
posed an amendment which would pro-
hibit the banks from charging more
than 5 per cent per annum on the
emergency currency loaned out by
them.
How are you going to know
whether it is emergency currency a
bank is loaning to its customers, Or
other currency" demanded Senator
Shafroth of Colorado, who opposed the
Smith amendment.
Senator Overman of North Carolina
presented an amendment providing
the banks more than l per cent in
terest on the emergency currerry foI
the first three months. The law at
present provides a tax of per cent
for the first three months the curren-
cy is issued. This amendment was
roundly criticised on the ground that
the banks would rush to -. this cheap
currency and initiate the currency.
Owen Bill Goes Over.
After several hours Of discussion the
Owen bill was allowed to go over until
Wednesday,, with the understanding
that the members of the banking and
currency committee would consult with
the federal reserve board regarding the
amendments proposed.
Senator Owen has also a number
of important amendments to the fed
eral reserve act to call up in the SEN
ate, which already have been acted
| upon by the Senate committee after
receiving the approval of the reserve
board. Some Of these amendments are
expected to lead to long debate.

To PRESIDENT WILSON
London Paper Would Have German
Emperor Questioned Regarding
Hague Treaties.

LONDON, September 5.-The Specta-
tor, discussing the German operations
at Louvain, says:
I'VE venture to take this opportunity
of again suggesting that President
Wilson should approach the German
emperor and ask him for a plain dec
laration of what his intentions are
with regard to all the treaties signed
in his behalf at The Hague. Those
agreements have been shamelessly

promises"
The newspaper says that English
men, no matter what Emperor Will
liam's answer might be, would have
no thought of reprisals, adding that
there must be no policy of an eye for
an eye and tooth for a tooth.
Presidents Opportunity.
Here is Mr.. Wilson's opportunity"
the Spectator continues. "The United
States is strictly neutral-as honest
ly neutral toward Germany, we are
sure. as toward ourselves. But she
is the only neutral great power, ex-
cept Italy, left outside the orbit of war.
We earnestly hope that Mr.. Wilson,
finding himself in this position-par-
deeply committed to the principles of
The Hague-will boldly ask the Ger
man emperor to declare his inten-
tTons.
"Mr. Wilson can act where no one
else could. as the spokesman of civil
ization and Of human rights The cues
ton to be put to the German emperor
could be asked in a manner that
would admit of no misunderstanding
or evasion.
Question Propounded.
Does the German emperor repudi-
ate the Geneva convention and
perhaps even more binding-the COM
mon understanding of Europe that
has grown up in the last 200 years ?
Does he repudiate all The Hague con-
ventions? We ought to know. In
our opinion the United States owes it
to civilization to find out for the rest
of the world"

LONDON. September D, 400 a.m.-
The correspondent of the Reuter- Tele-
gram Company at F'errieres, a town
near Paris, sends the following:
Our men. though cheerful, are angry
at the continued retreat. They don't
understand the necessity for it. They
are all amazed at the unending num-
bers of the Germans They say: The

1.-The war is very hard on the horses
and the condition of some of the poor
beasts which I've seen passing south
ward toward Paris would better not be
described. Nevertheless the army is
still fit in every sense of the word, and
its transport is intact and fills the road
with a column of motor vans nearly
six miles long.
Expresses Pity for Fugitives.
Our soldiers are all right, but the
people whom we pity are the thousands
of fugitives who have been swept up
and blown away by the marching
armies like chaff before the wind. The
country through which the armies have
passed is devastated. DynAmited
bridges and tunnels mark the retreat
of the allies and blazing villages mark
the advance of the Germans. The
French would do we'll to destroy the
crops themselves rather than leave it
to the enemy.

forward by night as well as by day.
Many kilometers have been gained on

THAT the Germans are in a great
hurry is evident. They advance re-
gardless of risks and sacrifices, crush
ing down resistance by the weight of
numbers and carried forward by the
hope OF striking a mortal blow at the
western foe before the eastern enemy
is at the gates of Berlin. The speed
at which they advance is the cause of
constant wonder to people who know
the country and the distances.
