PEACE TREATY DISCUSSED
 IN HOUSE OF COMMONS

London, Feb. 12-Most of today's session Of the house of commons was occupied in a discussion of the motion or William James Thorne, labor mem Der from West Ham, in favor of a re- vision of the peace treaty. which he subjected to severe criticism. The most interesting suggestion emanated from Lord Cecil that the league of na tions should send two international commissions to Russia to ascertain the exact conditions mad to ike the pro- visionsl boundaries of the border states.
 Arthur J. Balfour. lord president of the council who made a general de- fense of the treaty and the govern ments share therein, said he feared Lord Roberts suggestion would not result in a new heaven on earth in Russia He also denied that the gov ernment was encouraging Poland in a policy of adventure.

He cited the operation of the federal reserve system in illustration, saying.
 Members banks absolutely control the distribution of credit which they make to Individuals in the commun- ity and directors of the member banks are usually composed of a group of men who control the great industrial enterprises of that com munity. Sucn enterprises naturally have preferential call upon the credits of the bank within their con- trol. This if not backed by real value, is an imitation of the vol ume of currency an imitation based upon liability.
 q am reliably informed that the banks, of this country have advanced a billion and half on credit on rep resentations made of supposed gov ernment liability to the insurer of the note. These acceptances do not rep resent goods received by the govern 1 ment or services rendered to it, and the treasury has refused to acknow- ledge any government liability at all. Yet hundreds of millions of dollars of federal reserve notes have been is- sued against such bills"
 The recent treasury department rul- Ing that federal reserve banks might carry Liberty bonds as assets at the price paid when purchased was an
 asN1se" on national credit, NIT. Plumb said, as many capitalists sub scribed for bonds at par but never paid for them. Such holders have de- posted the bonds with their notes for re-discount, and federal reserve notes have been issued against these credits, he said.
 Mr. Plumb expressed the belief that the action of the treasury was un- l constitutional and added that the re- tirement of ali reserve notes issued against these obligations would de- fate the national currency by a bil- lion and a half
 Mir. Plumb vigorously attacked pending sedition legislation as the first time the law has undertaken to declare that an injury to property or an act of hate. against property con 1 stitutes sedition against the govern ment."
 The people. have the inalienable unaterable and indefeasibie right to change or alter their form of gov eminent whenever the Happiness. peace and prosperity of the people require A he said "That unalter- able right is now threatened. It must be preserved"
