RESERVE BOARD
WARNS AGAINST
A MONEY CRISIS

Washington, June 13.-More than
SO, 200. 100000 of new funds must be
provided by private initiative in the
next few months, if the United States
is to continue it's export trade at it's
present high level, 1t was estimated
today by the federal reserve board in
the June issue of federal reserve bull
letin.
With the supply Of capital short of
world requirements, additional long
term credits to Europe would de-
prive this country of needed money,
while failure to extend credit might
result in shortened industry and less
ened demand for labor at home, also
in retarding Europes economic recov-
cry which is regarded as necessary to
the reestablishment of normal condi-
tions everywhere.
One essential in the solution yet to
be worked out is believed to be con-
tiued saving by American people to
increase available capital.

Republican Leaders in Con-

This Summer.
BY GEORGE II. MANNING.

Washington, D. c., June 13.-Legis-
lation by congress to abolish the of
flee of comptroller Of the currency,
now held by John Shelton Williams,
and to turn the duties over to the
federal reserve board is on the pro-
gram of the republican leaders for
passage this summer.
1t has been decided to put the re-
publican party squarely back of the
plan and a bill to carry it out has
already been introduced in the senate
and house, respectively, by Senator
Calder of New York, and Congress
man McFadden, of Pennsylvania.
1t will be extremely difficult and
perhaps impossible. however. for the
republicans to carry out their plans
within the next two years while Pres
ident Wilson is in the white house,
because it is believed impossible to
get a two thirds vote to pass it over
his Veto The democrats, it is be-
lieved, will stand together against
this proposition insuring the impossi-
bility of securing a two thirds vote
for it.
The function of the comptroller of
the currency is to maintain a strict
surveillance over the national banks.

al banking laws, examine them and
call on them occasionally for state

is generally held by bankers that Mr.
Williams has kept a tighter rem on

Ter.
His enemies claim that Williams

Paris, June 13.-Holland notified the
peace conference she won't partici-
pate in blockade against Germany in
the event of refusal of Germany to
sign the peace treaty.
There has been no communication
yet between the peace conference Off
cials and the Turkish delegation which
is at Vaucreson under French sup
ervision.
The Turks, it is understood. stand
firmly for retention of their Ottoman
government in Constantinople. They
are divided about equally as to wheth-
ar France or Great Britain should have
mandate for Turkey. There has been
no mention of the United States in this
connection, it is understood.
When Germany receives the allied
reply to her counter proposals she
will receive it in the form of virtual
Iy a new draft of the peace treaty.
it is indicated in Paris advices to-
day
The treaty will not be altered in
principle, it is explained but the in
corporation of the explanations and
'arifca ations which the allies have
AIMED in replying to the counter
proposals VIII make virtually a new
document of 1t. 1t is expected that its
publication will be authorized the day
it is delivered to the Germans or the
day following.
The work of drafting the allied re-
ply, in the form of the changes de-
cided upon, is going forward in Paris
While there seems to be quite a
general belief that the Germans will
accept the peace terms, news dispatch
es from Paris reflect a certain amount
of doubt whether the German dele
gates or the present German govern
nent will sign the convention. French
official circles are said to expect the
immediate establishment of a radi-
cal socialist administration. which it
lis said may sign the treaty but, even
in that event, it has been suggested
the allies might not accept the sigma
ture of the radicals.
The treaty stipulates that the Sarre
district will hold a plebicite after fif-
teen years it being provided the re-
suit must be approved by the league
OF nations, and 1t is possible a SINH
lar arrangement may be made relative
to Silesia.
