Silver compromise averts party split in inflation bill
Washington April 22 United Press reports a compromise on silver provisions of the administration inflation bill to prevent a Senate split in the Democratic party. The Wheeler King amendment would permit President Roosevelt to order silver coinage postwar and expand beyond Pittman’s limit for silver in wartime payments. Pittman said the Wheeler King plan satisfies him and could be added to the inflation bill, with the silver amendments still under Senate consideration. The Senate banking subcommittee, chaired by Adams, was to review all silver amendments, though prospects of quick maneuver through both subcommittee and full committee remained uncertain.
