ittec at Work
New York, Aug. 30. The members of
the senate sub-committee, which has
beeneonsiderlug a currency measure,
haw given up the idea of reaching an
agreement upon any asset currency
plan, says a World dispatch from Prov
idence, R. I. v
Senator Aldrlch, the chairman, is au
thority for the statement that while the
committee had not departed from Its
determination to devise some conser
vative measure for the betterment of
financial conditions. It has decided to
exclude from the bill any reference to
asset curency of any other detail upon
which a disagreement of the senate and
house would be likely.-
"It is the belief of that committee
that in a short time before congress Is
convened that It would be practically
impossible to frame, with any hope of
its adoption, a comprehensive currency
measure that would embrace all the
larger Questions which will yet have to
be dealt with. The energies of the com
mittee, thir.fore,are being devoted to
(mvIik -.he "voy for the passage of n
simple bill to meet present needs." (
When the formal conference of the
committee is resumed In the near fu
ture at Senator Aldttch's home, the new
measure will tie drafted.
