Says Opposition of Bankers to

Lobs.
III THE LONG RUN
. WOULD BENEFIT ALL
Declares Fight Is to Break
.Opposition to Connection
: Between Banking' and '
" Speculation. ,
' 'By Associated Pros. . ' ' '
New Tork, Oct It. Chairman Car
ter Glae of the house committee on
banking and currency, replying today
to opponents of the administration i
currency measure, charged their op'
position to the fact that the passage
of the bill meant art immediate Ions
of profits to many bankers, although
In the Ion run the change would
benefit the bankers a well as the
publle, .'-.-..--'' ':
The real opposition to -this bin,"
he said, in a speech before the Na
tional Currency conference of the New
York Academy of Political Science, ?"ib
not a to government control, upon
whlclrwe hall never yield. It 1 not
a to compulsory membership,: which
Is provided In another way In the Aid
rich scheme scheme that wa
unanimously endorsed by the Ameri
can Bankers' association. It Is not
in the -required capital .subscription
nor the rive per cent dividend. It js
none of these. ."';"".'.
- .fit i li that ost vital jjsqulremBatl
of the bill' that in the future funds- on
deposit in other national banks can
not be counted as legal reserve. This
means an immediate loss of profits to
many bankers I say immediate, for in
the long run the change will benefit
bankers as well as the public and it
Is the-prospect of that loss 'that- ex-1
plains .most 6f the organized opposl-
tlpn to the bill
"The flght is to drive us from. oOi
firm resolution to break down the a'
aV-
tlflclal connection between the bank'
lnb business of this country and the
stock' speculative operations at ' the
m6ney center.: The monetary com-
i mission, with more discretion, than
courage, absolutely evaded the prob
lem! but the banking and vourrency
committee of the house has gone to
the very root of this gigantic evil, and
In this bill proposes to cut the cancer
out This we propose to do eautlou-
y, graduating the operation to preva
lent conditions and extending It over
a period of 88 month. . .
Out. of abundant precaution w
have actually allowed longer time than
the best practical ' banker of the '
country said was needed. But the
plaint of these critic Is not a to the
tlm but aa to the foot. They do not
want existing arrangements disturbed;
they are willing to perpetuate a defec
tive, unaaientiflc system sanctioned by
law but condemned by experience and
bitterly offensive to the -American
people a system which, everybody
knows encourage and promotes the
worst description of stock gambling."
To those who hoped for delay, Mr.
Glass woujd say they pursued a false
hope: the most vigorous opposition to
the bill had come from those who
wanted a more radical measure. ' And
If legislation were postponed till the
American people were goaded by an
other panto the currency legislation
which would then be enacted would
be far more radical than the measure
now pending before congress. .
As to the charges that tne bill con
ferred autocratic power upon the fed'
eral reserve board, an alleged political
board, and that compulsory member
ship waa nnjust, Mr. Olass said, in
part: . ' i. . ' .. . . .
1 "The federal reserve board I essen
tially a aupervlsory board, and clearly
should not represent any section, fac
tion op type of business interest. ; Jt
should represent . the publle' aa a
whole. There Is only on way of se
curing a board of this kind, namely,
to have It appointed py the president
of the United States, who alone 1 the
elected representative of the entire
nation-. ' That 1 the way we select
the secretary of the currency, In whom
has been vested tor half a century by
the National Banking act nearly every
power conferred by this bllV.upon the
federal reserve board. ' ,
"Although the member of the fed.
eral reserve board will all be appoint.
ed by the president of the United
States, the board will not be a political
board In an7 narrow sene of tht
term. It la my earnest conviction,
based upon hing and rnrlous rafWtl.m,
that no man can cowrv as nono hn
yet pointed out Aow'kny part of thin
syntam can be perverted to political
xw. In my Judgment lnRfnlous
