CONGRESS GETS
INITIATION BILL
Measure Will Shoot
Prices Upward

WASHINGTON, D. C.-In a des-
perate attempt to get out of the
deepening financial crisis with the
resultant failure Of thousands of
banks, Senator Glass has introduced
a bill to improve the facilities of
the Federal Reserve System In
reality this bill will allow the govern
ment to issue money without the sec
urity that has been necessary I'D to
the present.
The sponsors Of the bill admit that
the purpose is initiation, the lower
ing Of the value of the dollar and
the raising of prices. The bankers
hope through this drastic measure to
stop bank failures and SO release the
billions Of dollars that have been
withdrawn from industry and are be-
ing boarded.
The bankers realize that they are
playing with fire and Senator Glass
tries to allay the fears Of the timid
ones by saying that excessive in
flation of the currency" will not be
allowed. But the spectre of Ger
many and the other capitalist ma
tons Of Europe with their worthless
paper money after the war hovers
in the background.
In Europe 1t Is expected that with
this new bill the United States will
be forced before long to drop the
gold standard completely.
For the workers imitation will mean
higher prices and consequently more
starvation.
