CURRENCY BILL
IS SCORED BK
WASHINGTON. Dec. y. "Tiu- en
actment of the currency bill as it
came from the House would have
been a national calamity,” declared
Senator Bristow to-day in making a
demand on the Senate that a
provision be inserted in the measure
making interlocking directorates un
lawful. The Kansas Senator called
attention to the fact that while the j
Ihijo investigating committee found
interlocking directorates the founda
tion of the •‘money trust." yet the
House bill, although championed by
President Wilson. Chairman Glass
and Samuel Unterinyer, the attorney
for the Pujo committee, contains “not
a single line that will carry out Lite
findings of the Pujo committee.
”1 have been amazed.” continued
Senator Bristow, “to see men who
pretend to be hostile to the control by
these great Wall Street interests of
our banking systeim proposfe a Scheme
which they thenisefves must admit if
controlled by such interests would be
more powerful for evil than any
which Wall Street would organize
under existing law."
Senator Bristow said the Owen
draft provides for a “bankers” bank
ing system owned by the banks, con
trolled by the banks and conducted
almost wholly for the profit of fSie
banks, w hile the Hitchcock draft is a
people’s bat^k, owned by the general
public, controlled by the Government
and used to strengthen and fortify
our great independent banking sys
tem.
