The Dollar i'm Foreign Exchange

Most o. the international exchanges
continue to suffer in comparison vii n
tne AiAerlcan dollar, which stands at
a hlgn premium Almost everywneie
Japan is about the only country which
has favorable exchange position as
regards the United States Japan is
taking advantage OF its position by
drawing gold steadily from the Amer
can market, shipments this month ae-
gregating $l3,500,000. Since June 80
exports of gold to Japan have approx
mated $A0000,OOO.
The United States Is drawing cold
from other parts of the world. Ship
ments OF metal bought in the open mar
ket in London for American account
continue to be made on fairly active
scale. Last week bankers here arranged
Tor the shipment of $5000,0OO in gold
from Australia as the result of an
eAchAnge operation.
The situation between this country
and South America continues to c;ve
concern. The dollar is at a premium
OF - per cent and more in most Of
the south American countries 1t is
SO high that imports of American
eooas are failing off To remedy The
SITUATION several of The Latin American
countries are seeking loans here In-
c.oded IN the list are Argentina, Brazil.
Chlle. Peru and Bolivia Cuba is Also
trying to raise money here, the amount
sought beng SIS 100000 to $500 900 900
BANKERS think the loan will 60 through
at any early date.
IN the European exchanges there bas
been highly irregular movement oS
late. Sterling has rallied somewhat on
the news Of the termination of the min.
eTs strike. Francs have continued to dis
play weakness. German mafks a,sn
have dec .ined. This is normally the
season OF the year when the exchanges
move against Europe by reason of the
herVy export OF American goods.
The First Federal Foreign Bankins
= AsSoc alton, discussing the exchange
situation, says:
Inc cause of the Worldwide dear
ness OF the dollar in exchange is. with
out doubt, linked up closely with the
hnanciai condition of the creditor na-
t!ons of Europe. Their situation of
heavy Indebtedness because Of the war
and the imitation of their currencies
both react upon each other to make If
increasingly difficult for them to buv
dollars
Nearly everywhere, there is a direct
relationship between the cost of dollar
exchange and the cost of gold bullion.
In London, 1t costs almost exactv the
to buy the amount of gold con

tanned -in a dollar as it does to buy a
dollar in exchange. In other words,
the dollar has come to be almost the
equivalent Of gold in foreign countries
here the dollar and the weight of
-old in our dollar is almost exactly the
same, the depression Of local paper
iurrencles is in general way meas
ire of local imitation. SO long as we
restrict our circulation strictly and
emphasize the parity Of our paper and
sold, we will see the dollar above the
pre-war par in the inflated currencies.
"Probably this kind OF unbalancng
OF exchange would hurt our trade, but
temporarily if the inflated currencies
would only reach level Of their actual
gold value and stay there Trade
would recognize this as a new parity,
Just as international trade, after sew
eral years of depression of the Braz-
i!lan mil reis gave it new par of
ABOUT 20 Y cents. International COM
merce would adjust itself, and prices
here and abroad, in the different
moneys, would become adjusted. But
The fluctuations of Europe's moneys in
terms OF the dollar will not cease till
production and trade come back to
me fairy even balancing of things so
that Europe won't be buying so much
more than she sells, or having so much
more to pay out than is coming in

u. s. Leather Weak

Acute weakness developed In United
States Rubber yesterday. and the stock
under heavy selling orders declined to
71H, three. points under the previous
low of the year. The decline was at
tributed to the downward price revision
in tires. which the company has an
nounced will be effective as of Novem-
Der /, and to talk of new financing.
The company stands to take loss on
part of its inventory, representing ma
terials bought at prices higher than
those now prevailing, but interests
close to the management insist that
no new financing will take pace this
year. 1t is expected that the company
will soon begin to liqudate on its foot
wear sales, which will represent about
one-third Of this years business. and
it is believed that by the end Of the
year bank loans will have been sub
stantially reduced

IARKSPUR CAMPAIGN IS
STARTED BY CATTLEMEN

An article in last weeks Times
told of rarkspur eradication being
done in the Hawley Gulch district of
the Targhee forest by few farmers
who have cattle ranging on on the
government reserve. The work that
these few farmers accomplished has
aroused an interest in other mem
bers of the West Palisade Stock as
ISOLATION and another date has been
set for volunteers to come out and
dig up this poisonous plant which is
doing so much to damage their cat
tie interests. President Byrne of the
association called a meeting at Rex
burg last Saturday. The meeting was
largely attended and after listening
to talks on what had been done by
eleven men in two days time, the
meeting voted unanimously to join
in another voluntary raid on the
larkspur. The date set was for
Wednesday of this week and it is ex-
pected that fully forty men will be
out to assist in the work of eradi-
cation. This will be the last at
tempt of the season, but the associa-
ton anticipates taking hold of the
matter early next spring with the
view of cleaning out the entire Haw-
ley gulch district of this poisonous
plant. The association employs
few herders to ride the range con-
tinually and keep their stock within
certain prescribed limits and it is
figured that once the larkspur is
eliminated then it will be an easy
matter for the herders to keep it
down.-Idaho Falls Times.
