Hoover declared. In outlining some OF
the tasks confronting the allies.
When newspa pcrmen called upon
Mr. Hoover he had prepared for them
the following statement outlining the
purposes OF his trip abroad:
Il am going to Europe to discuss the

Herds Of Europe Reduced.
Call continental Europe has reduced
herds and Is consequently short of
meats and especially fats. These
countries have their last harvest. md.
under orderly governments, this would
furnish breadstuffs and vegetables for
various periods from two months up

than 200, 100000 people are now in
social disorder. In these cases, with
transportation and financial democrat

to cease marketing even their surplus
and thus instant difficulties are pro-
jected into the cities. even when re-
sources are available in the country.
The peasant and villager of Europe
always provides for himself for the
whole year in any event. The problem
thus narrows itself to the support OF
the cities and large towns. pending

JAP CURRENCY INITIATION.
Contraction Urged as Means Of Lower
ina Price Of Necessities.


ing Price Of Necessities.
Toxic, Oct. 16.-CBy Mail) -Con-
traction of the currency. which has
been inflated in Japan owing to the
war, is recommended in many circles
as one means of lowering prices, the
soaring of which recently led to dis
turbances.
Baron Takahashi. formerly minister
of finance. expresses the opinion
that currency contraction would
undoubtedly lower prices but he fears
such q measure would bring in It's
wake a serious business depression.
He pointed out that the amount OF
convertible notes issued by his bank
of Japan has doubled but as money OF
this nature is in the pockets of work.
ers it will be impossible to reduce It's
amount and any attempt to do so
would prove a blow to the business
prosperity which is founded on an
expansion OF credit.
