SENSIBLE GIFTS FOR MEN AND WOMEN ON EASY CREDIT WASHINGTON. Dec. 22 Tbs Ad ministration's currency bill probably will be enar^ted into law before nigh*. The last, obstacles In its path were swept away at a long night session if ihe House and Senate confers#*, which ended at 3 o’clock this morn ing The only action nerp*»ary to maka the measure a law is acceptance by the two houses of the conference re port and President Wilson's signa ture Important action was taken by the conferecu in the closing hours of their long session, In which they were aided by the advice of Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo. The House con ferees triumphed on two big points of difference when an agreement was reached to drop the provision provid ing for the guarantee of national banK deposits and to eliminate the clause permitting the use of reserve notes ns reserves of member banks A compromise was reached on a matter that has caused bitter fighting when it was agreed that the t'omp- troller of the Currency shall be a member of the Federal Reserve Roard. but that tiie Secretary of Agricult iTT^ shall not serve on the board. The House had fought to have both officials made ox-officio members of the board, and succeeded in securing an agreement to have them made members of the organization commit tee. The question of retiring 2 per cent bonds caused sharp discussion, and It was finally decided to retire them two vears after the inauguration of the new system, $25,000,000 worth to lie retired annually. They shall be taken over from national banks by reserve banks. For one-h^lf of the bonds so tak.»n reserve bunks will issue notes similar to those of national banks. The conferees were worn out bv their Arduous work, but stuck to the task until it was finished, having re solved to complete the work so that Congress might adjourn over the hol idays. As fast as an agreement was reached on the various provisions and a page of the bill disponed of it was rushed to the Government printery fc*r preparation.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.—Presi dent Wilson paid hi» compliments to "calamity howlers” to-day when he indicated to callers at the White House that the nation understands it is the duty of “hard-times prophets” to kee^) busy always. The President expressed himself as deeply pleased over the evident incli nation of the business Interests of the natu n to conform to the provisions of the Sherman anti-trust act, but de clined to make a specific statement on the business conditions of the coun try at the present time. He waa asked if he knew of any other corporations that were making ready to follow the voluntary disso lution move of tiie American Tele phone and Telegraph Company. He had none specifically in mind, he said, and reiterated his belief that interests generally would adjust themselves to legal requirements That the Government naturally is willing to co-operate with all busi ness men who desire to obey the law is self-evident, according to Presi dent Wilson’s views. He has gained an impression from members of his Cabinet and many members of Con gress that business men in general are more than willing to reorganize in accordance with the provisions of the law, and said the agreement as to the dissolution of the American Tele phone and Telegraph Company, em phasizes this impression.
