BILL IF IT PUSSES IS IT
STUDS, SITS MAODOX
"Very few national banks, and no
State banks at all. will submit to the
provisions of the Owen-Glass curren
cy bill if Congress makes it a law in
Its present form," Robert F. Maddox
ssrerts.
Mr. Maddox, vice president of the
American National Rank, represented
the Atlanta Clearing House at the
Chicago conference of the American
Bankers’ Association, which agreed to
fight the Administration program as
now drafted, and to advocate amend
ments which change radically Its fun
damental clauses.
He was a member of the committee
of twelve which drafted the resolu
tions embodying the bankers' views
of what the new currency bill should
be. and he is one of the seven com
posing the committee which will pre
sent the bankers' case before Con
gress.
“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 banks 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 and 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 not subscribe voluntarily.
“Keen resentment has been aroused
by the prospect of being forced to
comply with the new law under pen
alty of forfeiture of charter. The
banks think this not only is 111 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 be
Composed of the Secretary of the
Treasury by virtue of his office, three
members named by the President and
three to be selected by the banks—
“Instead of four Cabinet* members
and three other presidential ap
pointees. We still wouid allow the
President a majority and would re
move the restriction as to party affil
iations of members.
Fewer Reserve Banks.
"2. That there be five regional re
serve banks—
“Instead of twelve. We believe this
will result In greater mobility of re
serves.
“3. That the currency be Issued by
the regional banks—
“Instead of by the Government,
leaving the Government unincum
bered in the possible contingency of
was or other emergency.
“4. That the gold reserve be 40 per
cent—
“Instead of 33 1-3 per cent.
“6. That farm loans be allowed to
run one year—
“Instead of nine months.
“6. That the dividends paid etock-
holders by regional banks be 6 per
cent—
“Instead of 5 per cent.
“7. That subscriptions to the re
gional bank required from members
be 10 per cent of their capital, 6 in
cash, 5 on call—
"Instead of 20 per cent.
t 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,
sine* the very life of th< banker de
nation. We believe, however, that
Congress and the public will 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 fofee a hl’l
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 be.”
No date has been set for the com
mittee’s trip to Washington. Jam?s
B. Forgan, president of the First Na
tional Bank of Chicago, will issue
the call.
The bankers’ congress consisted of
the president of each hankers’ 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
hankers, it Is pointed out, were all
corisirlered In detail when the hill was
originally prepared and In the long
debate over Its provislosn in the
House Committee on Banking and
Currency.
The proposal trf 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 hill In the Senate,
hut the change is not expected In the
House.
The bankers will have sn opportu
nity to present their views o ; penly to
Congress after the currency bill get!"
Into the Senate. Chairman Owen, of
the Senate Currency Committee, aald
that while hearings had not yet been
arranged, he expected leading repre
sentatives of the various ‘‘factions’’
amongst the hankers of the country
wouid he 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
now legislation, particularly with re
gard to the possible reduction of
loans and curtailment of credit, has
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 and support
of a large portion of the banking fra
ternity of the country.
In the opinion of Democratic lead
ers. the past 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 the 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 Senate Democrats In supporting
the 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 tarlfT bill and
pass it by September 5. and the
measure could be flnisried by the con
ference 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.

verely arraigned the actions of Judge
Speer, for which a contempt case was
ordered by the judge. This brought
a complaint to the Department of
Justice in Washington, and investi
gators from that Department were
sent to each city in which Judge
Speer holds court, and the records
examined and affidavits secured.
The complaint and report of in
vestigators resulted In the action of
the committee to-day.

SHERBROOKE, QUEBF:C, Aug 25.
Investigation was started here to-dav
of an alleged attempt to bribe im
migration officials who are here in
connection with the case of Harry K.
Thaw.
James Nlchol, the crown prosecutor,
who up to this time has taken only |
a passive part In the legal battle be
ing waged between Thaw and those
who would return him to Matteawan.
was responsible for the investigation.
David Reynolds, one of'the three
Immigration Inspectors on the scene,
Indirectly admitted lhat there was
foundation for the report that officials
in the Department of Immigration
had been approached, but would give
no details. The alleged bribers ap
parently desired to Influence the Im
migration officials in Thaw’s favor.
It Ls reported from Ottawa to-day
a second writ of habeas corpus m iv
be applied for in Thaw’s behalf on the
ground that he does not come within
the class of aliens prohibited by Ca
nadian law. Acting Minister of Jus
tice Doherty will be in Albany Fri
day on his way to meet Viscount Hal
dane, and may confer with Governor
Sulzer or Acting Governor Glynn m
the Thaw case.
Thaw told reporters he had in
structed his eight lawyers to hire spe
cial guards for him while he is out
side the jail and court house.
“It has come to my ears that the
New York authorities will try to kid
nap me if I am released on habeas
corpus proceedings, as I fully expect
to be,” said Thaw. “I understand
they will try to seize me by force and
carry me into New T York.”
When Thaw' is released on habeas
corpus on Wednesday, the Canadian
Government will institute deportation
proceedings.
The question of the applicability of
the Canadian Immigration act to
Thaw, that he does not come within
any of the prohlibted classes, will be
come a question for the courts anJ
may ce carried to the Judicial Com
mittee of the Privy Council in Lon
don.
Thaw undoubtedly will b) deported
into the little Vermont village of Nor
ton Mills, which immediately will be
come the scene of a big legal fight.

Vigorous Defense. /
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 25.—De-

orous defense when placed on trial in
the United States District Court
Tuesday morning. F. Drew Caminetti,
companion in their flight to Reno
with Maury Diggs, Marsha Warring
ton and Lola Norris, explained tho
reasons why he refused to plead
guilty.
"These reports that I intended to
plead guilty were occasioned by the
anxiety of my mother following the
conviction of Diggs,” said Caminetti.
“She was of the i mpression that I
would stand no show whatever on
trial and that It would possibly be
better for me to plead guilty and
throw myself on the mercy of the
court.
“Both my counsel and myself have
induced her to look differently on th?
matter since. In the first place, I
could not think of pleading guilty to
the charges placed against me and
admit that I was a white slaver.”
Caminetti said he would not try to
shift the blame for the elopement on
the shoulders of Lola Norris.
