Conferees Back Currency Reform Plan With Warier Reserve Rules
A conference committee forged a currency reform bill closely aligned with President Wilson. It tightens reserve requirements, sets eight to twelve regional banks, and raises the gold reserve behind new notes to 40 percent with a depletion tax. The comptroller to sit on the Federal Reserve Board is approved by a shifting vote, and a plan to retire 2 percent bonds through regional bank issuance is written in. The bill omits federal deposit guarantees, to be addressed in a separate measure.
