GLASS-0>VE> MEASURE. 24 Republicans and 14 Progressives Yote With Democrats for Passage. N I Washington, September 18?The complete revision of American banking and currency methods proposed ^ in the democratic currency bill was W started on its way to the statute books today. By a vote of 286 to 84, the house passed the bill in almost the same form as it originally was proposed. Twenty-four republicans and 14 progressives voted for the bill. With this overwhelming house majority and the endorsement of Presi. dent Wilson behind it, the measure L was sent over to the senate. There it was referred to the banking and | currency committee, where hearings already are in progress. The committee may not be ready for several i i weeits. "Would End Bank >'ote System. L The measure would eliminate the present American bank note system, Br under which banks issue currency r against government bonds and estabI iish a currency issued by twelve fedg& eral banks, based on sound commer|r cial paper,' which the government as sumes the responsibility of redeeming. It would place virtually every phase of banking under the control of a federal reserve board of seven members, appointed by the president, and a council of bankers, which would have only advisory powers. The sys-1 | tem would be administered through | ~rvenue banks in twelve geographical divisions of the country, each capitalized at about $5,000,000, which capiI tal must be subscribed by banks in l the reserve district.

The committee itself is expected to take weeks in the discussion of the measure, although the sdnrin^tration forces in the senate hope to force an early report to the floor, where further extended debate is "coked for. To Hear More Experts. A number of invited experts were | still to be heard when the senate com- j mittee finished today's hearings. Pub- ! lie discussion of the measure probably ! will continue until early next week. The bill will tnen be taken up for discussion in the senate committee room. Further criticisms were voiced again today. William H. Berry, collec-' tor of customs at Philadelphia, said he believed the bill proposed a system worse than that now in operation. Mr. Berry said he believed banks would be compelled immediately to borrow back the greater part of the reserves they might contribute to regional reserve banks. "Then instead of being reserves to which the whole country could go for money, they really would be elements of weakness in the system?" suggested Senator Reed. "I think that is so," said Mr. Berry.

Schmidt afterwards expressed ideas on the taking of human life that fitted in the theory of Inspector Faurot, in charge of the murder investigation, ! that the renegade priest might nave , been planning a series of homicides. He declared himself a believer in eunthanasia and that he would be doing right in taking the lives of the crippled and of persons undergoing mental or physical suffering, #detectives who talked with him thus reported. "J ViT , 1 ^ Ko ^orrvinc mif 1 UCilC VC X WVJUAU WV/ VM.XAJXi.AO God's will," Schmidt said, "if I put out of tiiis world all such people." To Dispose of Dead. 'Faurot's suspicions of Schmidt's possible homicide plans were strengthened by the discovery among Schmidt's effects of a book of physi cian's death certificates and other blanks necessary in disposing of the dead. Schmidt declared these only were for use in the case of AnnaAumuller. He had stolen the certicates from a reputable physician up town, he told the detectives, because he first had intended to kill the girl i** a Ttroir Viof 'irfAiilrl rr? oVq if o nT\OQ T *11 a VY a J LU(l L *T VUJLU J^iUXVV.

The names of tne Hebrew months, in their order, nearly always overlapping the Gregorian months, are Tishri (beginning with Rosh Hashonah), Heshvan or Marchesvan, Kisey or Chisey, Tebeth, Shebat, Adar, Iyar, Sivan, Tamuz and Ab.
