SENATE DECIDES
RESUME DEBATE
VOTE CoMESs TODAY ON PRO-
POSAL TO GIVE FARMER
PLACE ON FEDERAL BOARD.
EXPECTED MEASURE WILL
PASS.

Washington, Jan, 1.-THE senate
will probably vote tomorrow to put
farmer on the federal reserve
board, leaders of both parties said
tonight. Such action will be taken on
a bill amending the federal reserve
act so that, in making appoint
ments to the board, the president
must have educ regard for a fair
representation Of the financial, ag-
gricultural, industrial and CONNER
cisl interests and the geographical
subdivision of the country" the
measure of compromise to which
President Harding and most of the
senators have agreed.
! Senator's today . denounced and
defended the many phases Of the
reserve boards activities, there be-
ing several attacks on the general
administrative policy of the board,
while Senator Glass (Democrat) OF
Virginia, former secretary Of the
traasury, known as author Of the
reserve act, stoutly. defended the
boards personnel and program. He
branded criticisms of the board as
for the most part the sdemagoguery
of eruptive politicians" Mr. Glass
denials of charges that the board
was the cause Of the heavy decreases
in prices of agricultural. products
was spirited and he offered figures
in substantiation of his statements
which he said were "cold and indis-
putabfe." ........-.
:. The othet principal speech of the
day was by Senator Norris (Repub-
lican) of Nebraska, who while
saving he was eager to do anything
which would aid the farmers, warn
ed that "the farmers are about to
be fooled again"
'They think" Mr. Norris said
4sthat this legislation will work won
ders; that it will give immediate re-
lief; that a sort of millennium will
be produced. But it won't and the
reason it won't is because by no
legislative act can congress take
away the discretionary power vest
ed in the executive over appointee. "
Mr. Norris said he probably would
vote for some of the amendments,
which, he said, would be offered to
the compromise measure, but that
in most cases his vote would be in
protest against what he described as
nearly maladmfnistration of affairs
by the reserve baord.
Mr.. Glass in the course of his
speech offered official ostatistics
showing, he said, that while prices
of agricultural products tumbled last
year.. the regional reserve banks
actually had Increased the volume
of currency and enlarged the cred
its. He emphasized that the reserve
board had no power by law to In
crease currency or order credits re-
stricted and de6ed anybody to show
that the board has 'even so much as
hinted" such a policy to the re-
serve banks. y

street in front of hislhdme. At 7pssc.
point, when the Cheers became
especially vociferous, Mr. Wilson
made a motion as>though he intend.
ed to walk down the steps and shake

HERMAN EXPORTERS
 SEEKING US. TRADE
Business Is Picking Up in This ]. Country for Their Goods

Berlin, Jan. 24.-German export
 irms which, before the war maintain ed branch offices in the United States now are seeking to establish agencies with reliable houses there, to avoid the cost of opening and maintaining their own establishments. A few Ger
 man firms already have succeeded in
 making satisfactory connections in
 this manner and the Americans are hccepting and forwarding orders for German goods.
 While American imports to Ger many are negligible, the German ex- port trade to America is reported gradually improving, despite the |Huctuating value of the mark which
 prevents the making of long time contracts. The majority of the ex-
 ports are bought by the Americans on cash basis, although verbal con-
 |tracts are common for future deliv- |cries, prices however being quoted in
 foreign exchanges.
 Virtually all German exporters now |Quote prices in the moneys of the
 |COunlrleS to WnlCD they sell. It IS understood this policy has been adopt- led at the suggestion Of the govern |ment, for the checks eventually are deposited in the Reichsbank, which is |the forwarding agency for the gov
 ernment in the payment of war in-
 |demnities, which must be made in
 foreign exchange.
 This poljcy has created q pecuIia F latitude on the part of the German

business man, whose profits often de- pend upon a depreciated currency in his own country. He is therefore loath to sec the mark rise in value, for his reduced.
