While the silver bloc in Con-
gress promoted a revolt against
his monetary leadership, Presi
dent Roosevelt today moved for
ward with his tentative plans for
creating a Government bank en-
powered to issue all forms of
currency.
The silver bloc was ready to
stage a drive for reconciliation
Of silver, in spite of the Presi-
dents present opposition. They
hoped to attach an amendment
to the Presidents pending mon
etary bill, carrying out silver
reconciliation.
Avoid 1e-tO-1
The silverites will propose
straight-out reconciliation on
the basis of the present silver
dollar.
They will make no mention of
the 16-to-1 ratio against gold,
which the late William Jennings
Bryan made famous three dec
AIDES ago.
Instead, they will give to the
President the power to fix the
ratio when he fixes the proposed
new content of the gold dollar.
Under this plan, by remonetiz-
ing silver at the present value Of
the silver dollar, they would en-
power the President to fix a
ratio of either 80 to / or % to /.
The exact ratio would oe es-
tablished by the gold content Of
the Presidents new dollar. If the
President reduced the value of
the gold dollar by so per cent,
then silver would be remonetized
at 80 to !.
Morgan Bloc Alleged
The silver bloc, in arguing for
reconciliation, privately charged
the President had abandoned all
present plans for expanding the
use of silver currency, because of
pressure from an international
gold bloc.
They declared this gold bloc
was headed by the firm of J. P.
Morgan g. Co. and the Bank Of
England. These charges will be
aired in Senate debate.

He says:
F"The whole basis of the new

is concerned, consists Of SYM

No Big Stick
In shaping the new Latin Amer

is carrying out President Roose-
velt's plans to keep clear of Euro
pean entanglements and concen
trate on the upbuilding of trade
in the Western hemisphere. Sayre
says:
The day has gone when a
powerful nation can WELD the

inely intended that the United
States should not WELD the big
stick in South America. We
want to genuinely cooperate"

"The United States assured

Economic aggression, insofar
as it involves new loans, is not
a live issue. We have had our
fingers burnt and the impulse
to invest in new foreign bond
issues is dormant"
Sayre made it plain the new
policy of joint action by the
United States and Latin-American
countries to insure peace in the
Western hemisphere involves no
machinery for an American

Certain forms of machinery
for joint action were discussed
