Big industries halted by money shortage despite demand
Industrial centers from Riverside to Wheeling froze operations as currency shortages blocked payrolls. Plants including the Riverside Tube Company and Wheeling Steel and Iron Company faced shutdowns with thousands of workers laid off. Advocates of the Aldrich bill argue it would prevent another panic by stabilizing credit, backed by Roy B. Naylor, secretary of the state board of trade, who supports the measure.
