Money Bill Goes In No Voice For Banks
Inside the Capitol today the administration currency bill was introduced in both houses with changes. Key points include retirement of national bank notes over twenty years, a 5 percent reserve on certain deposits, and a flexible Federal Reserve note limit up to 500 million plus deficits. The bill strengthens the Federal Reserve Board, limits bank representation, and expands authority to buy and sell transfers. President Wilson rejects bank representation on the board, and bankers pushed for eleven members but were rebuffed.
