THE ATLANTA UEORGJAN AND NEWS
BILL IF II

HU WRECK! iil-lERM
"Very few national hank*, and no
State hanks at all, will submit to th:*
provisions of the Owen-Glass curren
cy bill If Congress makes It a law In
its present form,” Robert F. Maddox
asserts.
Mr. Maddox, vice president of the
American National Rank, represented
the Atlanta Clearing House at tho
Chicago conference of the American
Bankers' Association, which agreed to
fight the Administration program as
now drafted. an« to advocate amend
ments which change radically Its fun
damental clauses.
Ho was a member of the committee
of twelve which drafted the resolu
tions embodying the bankers’ views
of what the new currency hill should
be, and he is one of the seven com
posing the committee which will pre
sent the bankers' case before Con-
g! eSS
“The banks present a solid front,”
Said Mr Maddox Monday morning
# *The resolutions were adopted with
out a dissenting vote. I base my be
lief that the bill in Its present form
can not succeed on such reports as
that of the president of the Wiscon
sin Bankers’ Association. He polled
the 300 national hanks in his State.
Only two replied that they would do
business under the Owen-Glass bill.
New Plan Needs Friends.
"The sense of the meeting, boiled
down, is that the new currency bill,
in order to succeed, must be drawn
so as to warrant the hearty co-opera
tion both of the national an/J the
State banks, for the reason that the
entire capital of the regional reserve
banks is required to be subscribed by
the banks, and unless the provisions
of the bill are attractive, the banks
will n »t subscribe voluntarily.
"Keen resentment has been aroused
since the very life of the banker de-
nation. We believe, however, that
Congress and the publb w r ill agree
that the co-operation of the banks
is necessary to the success of any
currency plan. We think no man »n
the House or the Senate worthy to
be there would wish to force a bill
through without giving a hearing to
those most concerned, the bankers,
who necessarily must be more patri
otic in their purposes than at present
they are supposed to he.”
No date has been set for the com
mittee’s trip to Washington. James
B. Forgan, president of the First Na
tional Bank of Chicago, will issue
the call.
The bankers' congress consisted of
the president of each bankers’ State
association, the monetary commis
sion of the national body and one
representative from each of 175 clear
ing house associations.

Money Bill Will Pass
House As It Stands.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 25. Informal
conferences of Democratic members
of the House Currency Committee
emphasize the fact that the active
supportesr of the President’s cur
rency plan expect to put the measure
through the House without substan
tial change.
The amendments proposed by the
bankers. It Is pointed out. were all
considered In detail when the bill was
originally prepared and in the long
debate over its provislosn In the
House Committee on Banking and
(’ur'rency.
The proposal to reduce the quantity
of reserves and give country banks
the privilege of keeping part of their
reserves in the large cities had many
supporters and ultimately may be
worked into the bill in the Senate.
] but the change Is not expected in the
by the prospect of being forced to House.
comply with the new law umler pen- i The bankers will have an opportu-
alty of forfeiture of charter. The
banks think this not only is ill ad
vised. but also illegal.
“These are the most vital changes
recommended by the most represen
tative gathering of bankers I ever
have seen:
“1. That the board of control ho
composed of the Secretary- of the
Treasury hv virtue of his office, three
members named by the President and
three to be selected by the banks
“Instead of four Cabinete members
and three other presidential ap
pointees. We still would allow the
President a majority and would re
move the restriction as to party affil
iations of members.
Fewer Reserve Banks.
“2. That there he five regional re
serve hanks
"Instead of twelve. We believe this
will result in greater mobility of re
serves
’’3, That the currency be issued .by
th** regional banks—
“Instead of by the Governments

bered in the possible contingency of
war or other emergency.

Prejudice a Handicap.
’ We realize that the bankers are
handicapped by a prejudice which has
been stirred up against them, a preju
dice which they believe unfounded,

Congress after the currency bill get.*
into the Senate. Chairman Owen, of
the Senate Currency Committee, said
that while hearings had not yet been
arranged, he expected leading repre
sentatives of the various "factions"
amongst the bankers of the country
would be Invited to give their views
of the bill to the Senate committee.
The fact that leading bankers hold
differing views of the effect of the
new legislation, particularly with re
gard to the possible reduction of
loans and curtailment of credit, ha.-'
led members of the Senate commit
tee to hope that a further discussion
of the bill at open hearings would re
sult in the co-operation iChd support
of a large portion of the hanking fra
ternity of the country.
In the opinion of Democratic lead
ers, the pant week saw greater prog
ress toward united support of Pres
ident Wilson’s legislative policies
than any recent stage of Congress
activity. The entrance of Secretary
Bryan as tin* whole-hearted advocate
of the administration currency bill, in
his letter read in the House caucus;
the united front presented by the
Democratic leaders of the House
against amendments to the currency
measure, and the complete success of
the Senkte Democrats in supporting
tho free sugar and other contested
points of the tariff bill, have ad
vanced the two big reforms a long
way toward completion, it is claimed.
Chairman Simmons, of the Senate
Finance Committee, predicts the Sen
ate could complete the tariff bill and
pass it by September 5. and the
measure could he finished by the con*-
fer-nce committee and signed by
President Wilson by September 16.
Only unforeseen delay in debate will
prevent the tariff bill from becoming
a law by that time, in the opinion of
Senator Simmons.

The exact cause of the wreck on the
Georgia Railroad near Decatur early
Sunday morning in which one negro
was killed, two white women were
.seriously injured and a score or more
passengers were shaken up. was still
a mystery Monday. Officials of the
road say the two trains, northbound
freight No. 19 and passenger train
No. 3 were under orders to run ten
minutes apart.
According to reports at St. Joseph
Hospital Monday morning, Mrs.
George Mathieson. of Peachtree Road,

Charlotte, N. C., who were seriously
injured, are resting well and w'ill re

The dead negro is Max Smith, of
