Clamor for Inflation Noted On Capitol Hill
Washington Jan 15 A rising clamor for currency inflation as a remedy to the nation's finances has opened Congress to discussion though decisive action this session is unlikely. Hearings on inflation plans including silver remonetization are set by the House Banking and Currency committee led by Chairman Steagall likely later this month. In the Senate similar efforts face filibusters against the Glass banking reform bill, while the House judiciary committee aims to report the McKeown LaGuardia bankruptcy revision bill to let creditors and debtors settle in federal courts with simple procedures. Speaker Garner promises early consideration once technicalities are resolved.
