REVIEWS THE PANIC OF ItOT IN ABLE MANNER, Measure Provides for Relief In Time 'of Flnnnelal Hire by , Allowing National Bank to Issue Emergea oy Cuimney on Certain Approved BTeonrltlea, Guaranteed by too Oov enunrn t A uracla Interest Becawe of LikeUliood of Passage Over Large Number of Similar Measure. Washington, Feb. 1. The reply of Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island to critic of hi banking and currency bill, introduced by hire as a measure to provide relief In Urn of financial st res by allowing th national bank to lasue emergency currency on cer tain approved securities and guaran teed by the government, was made to day. It excited widespread interest be cause th bill is supposed to bar th best opportunity of passing, of th number of bill offered this session. Many financial critics declare that the bill affords no substantial relief. Al drich reviews the situation in an able atyl. Ben tor -Aldrich spoke In th sen ate today In defense and explanation of hi banking bill. H reviewed the panto of 10. It waa not a currency panic, in the true sense of the word. for the United State currency. In character, Is beyond question. Th amount of money in circulation at that time In th hand of the peo ple outside of the bank and treasury was $11.16 per capita, much larger per capita than was held by the peo ple of any other commercial country in the world, except France, where condition are entirely different Under ordinary condition the volume of currency could be fairly criticised as excessive and certainly adequate to meet the normal de mands. But no provision for an emergency which occurs more or less frequently In every country and which we now see must be provided for. It 1 Impossible to estimate the lone Inflicted by the suspension of payment by the banks in the recent disturbance. There waa financial m barraasment on every hand, thousands were thrown out of employment and the wage of employe were reduced. "Of tha five expedients adopted to meet the emergency the use of clear ing house certificates was unqustlon ably th most effective. "This wa tha eighth time their use has been beneficial, at times pre venting serious disaster, but they re sulted this time In such disarrange' ment of the exchange a to make It doubtful whether the disadvantages were not greater than the' benefits. The great losses the people of the country suffered through the partial breakdown of our credit system and which the abnormal Increase in vol ume of money legal and Illegal, fall ed to avert ahould lead congress se riously to consider whether It Is pos sible that legislation will prevent a recurrence. If 'the panic ahould be repeated the methods of relief used In 1207 should not be available, the treasury would not be In condition to come to the relief. It would be impossible to Increase the national bank notes on states bonds and may not be able to command the large important ones, the gold suspension of bank payment with the resultant strain on the credit of the country would not be tolerated again. - No one can predict what the finan cial conditions will be by autumn. Some urge th entire revision of our monetary system, some the establish ment of a central bank or issue. personally, I think the states in time will adopt the latter system, but in the Immediate future it is out of the question. Therefore, the entire finance committee agreed upon a de mand for the Issue of emergency note. - The minority favored the United State note. The majority felt this would establish a dangerous prece dent and "the approval of their Issue even for temporary purposes would lead ultimately to a demand for th continual enlargement whenever reasonable pretext would be found. "It was believed, since . national bank notes with their convertablllty guaranteed by the government, have the confidence of the American peo ple, it would be prudence to use this form of currency. "Germany, England and Austro- Hungary follow this plan in a gen era! way. The oommittee felt that Germany' precedent waa th safest to follow. "There the Imperial bank la directly under the control of the government and has the authority to issue $112,' 000,000 in notes not covered by specie. Further, the issue of an authorised eaual to the amount of specie held and still a further amount subject to a 6 per cent tax per year. "Against this ' last named specie must be held to . one-third of th amount, gold bills of exchanging hold' Inm against . the remaining two- thirds. - The bill reported by the oommittee provides for the possible issue .In emergencies of $500,000,000 in notes to be Identical in character to 10 or other national bank notes, secured by state bonds. Th bank will b required to de posit with th tats', treasury, mu nicipal, state or first class railroad bonds. On th state and municipal bond they will be entltrel to 20 per cent in notes; on railroad to It per cent At any time within 42 hour th ntir i;o0,vuo,go can b yt rota tn channel of trade to allay publla excitement," Th bill (Imply give the bank th right to accomplish by legal methods that which they felt necessary in th recent crisis to accomplish by Illegal methods. Aldrich grew sarcastic In referring to the objection of the bill on bank earnings. He said he must confess that th committee did not try to de vise a plan to increase them. "In the recent panle there wa a general suspension of cash payment by bank," he Mid. "This is a vio lation of every banking law. But th bank manager ahould realize that th extraordinary forbearance of the people would not be repeated. "Our recollection for th past three month ar too definite to lis ten with patience to or discussion by officer of th bank In large cities as to whether th remedies proposed by congress should result in targe ad dition to their dividend. I do not Intend to place a premi um on that kind of bank manage ment which propose to make a fnan. ctal disturbance and disaster a source of profit. "The securities named find univer sal acceptance In th settlement of obligations. . No securities except United Ststes bonds have better credit and standing in financial circle a to asserting that th government should not exact from the banks a pledge of definite 100011116." That It la safe to accept general credit and assets a security, Aldrich said, 1 sufficient answer thst the banks don't follow this rule dealing with each other. The clearing house require carefully selected securities on which they advance 71 per cent of the value.
