WASHINGTON'. Oct. 24. Trouble
over the currency bill is ahead,
Senator Bristow knows what he
talking about. A struggle promised
to develop between parties on the re
gional banking system provided for
in the Glass-Owen bill, and support
ers of a central banking plan, propos
ed by the former comptroller of the
currency, Vandcrlip. The president
notified members of the senate cur
rency committee he would not ac
cept under any circumstances a sub
stitution of the central bank for the
rigional plan. It is denied it is mere
ly a slight variation of the Aldrich
scheme.
