| 7 cannot discuss the particular PROPOSE
| ton of the United States sending a rep
resentative to the Genoa conference.
am one OF those who recognize that
! there can be no stability In world finance
and economies until there is a better
balancing of budgets by the European
nations, a reduction Of their wild issues
of paper money and a resumption OF
the normal flow OF gold. The man who
| thinks that the domestic prosperity OF
the United States Is nor affected by
world economic conditions Is wofully ig-
! norant Whether we like II or not, we
are part OF the world and upon the
! stability of world markets depends the
prosperity of large portion of our
prod ucers.
Representative Green tUtaD-Untii
we are more definite in a decision upon
our domestic economic policy, ] doubt
! the wisdom Of the United States oar
| ticipating in the Genoa conference IL
such participation carries subsequent OBJ
| legations on our part II the part the
United States would play would be
merely advisory. that would be another
thing.
Representative Collier (Miss.)--I am
for the United States to help in any
| thing that might bring a return OF
peace and prosperity to the world. we
should have a representative there.
Representative Garner (Tex.)-I think
the United States should send a rep
rcsentative because our economic sys-
! TEN is so interviewer with foreign trade.
and the ability of foreign people to buy
| our products. We must do anything we
can to aid in restoring sound economic
system in Europe.
| Representative HawIey (Ore.)--I
would not be in favor of sending
representative who could make definite
proposals that would be binding on the
| United States unless those proposals
had been approved beforehand by the
United States authorities who would
later be called upon to give effect to
! them.
Representative Stafford CWis)-The
revival of industrial and commercial ac-
tiyity in the United States is largely
dependent on industrial conditions in
Europe. If all the European countries
are to be represented at Genoa we GER
tainly should have a seat at the table
to help work out plan for Industrial
revival.
Representative James s. Byrnes Is.
Co-My opinion is that we should en-
ter the conference. | can see no harm
in it. and we may be benefited.
can see no objection to the United
States participating in the conference
and I think lots of good can come
from it.
Representatiye william ID. Bankhead
(AIa.)--I think by all means we should
send duly accredited representatives
with full powers to act. We can have
No nrosperity until Europe is placed OF
a sound economic basis
Representatiye Edwin T.. Davis
fTeuno-I think we should enter the
Genoa conference. We are interested II
world conditions. Our self interest
makes Il important for us TO take par'
in the sessions.
Represeutative Frank Clague Minu.)
Il am willing to stand by the Admins
tration in its decision, Whatever ina
may be-
Rcpresentative c. =. Biggs Uex.)-
We should get more information before
adopting a policy.
Representative william j. Driver
(Arko-My mind Is still open on the
question, until / get more Information.
Representative Riley y. Wilson ha.)
nv all means this nation should be rep
resented officially at TIE Genoa con-
ference. Rehabilitation in this country
depends to n great extent upon the
trade recovery OF Europe. The prosperity
OF America depends TO great extent
upon industrial conditions In Europe
THAT fact is evident when we consider
, that from IS TO 20 per cent OF our prod
nets are sold In Europe under normal
Conditions. At present our factories arc
ranidiy approaching normal production
but because of the demoralized conoi-
, ,ion of the European countries we have
. | M arlxet for our goods. This accounts
IN a great extent for the depression In
this country. We should do everything
possible TO try to stabilize conditions II
Europe. and we can do much in thai
direction without involving this coun'
try in any ENHANCEMENT
Representative Carl v%nson tGa.)-
We are so closely associated with Bu'
rcpe with trade matters that from self
ish motives We should BY all means nave
n representative there. OF course 1t Is
q matter for the President and the SEN
ate 10 decide. but give you my opinion
for what 1t In worth.
Representative Charles I. Undcrhlll
,Nesso-rf the conference does not
,ecornize the Soviet Government OF Rus
sie and Is TO confine itself solely "a
economic questions IL might be good
pIsn to have this country represented
Eowever. there are so many possible
cr,tanelements that I am disposed tc
keep hands off for the time being at
least.
Representative John w. Summers
twash.)-.I would be in favor OF being
rcpresented at Genoa " the nations
there TO assemble should promise us In
advance that they will cut down their
armed forces and will not call upon us
10, more material assistance in getting
on their feet.
Representative Lucian W. Parrish
tTex.)--If the purpose OF the conference
x solely to stabilize foreign exchange
and 20 work out plans to rehablitate tho
trade Of the world, without making dc.
uands upon this nation, then | am IN
favor OF being represented at Genoa.
Urder no other conditions. however
would I approve Of this nation taking
any part in the conference.
Representative John Il. Rakcr (Cal.)
We should adjust matter. In this coun
try first. I. would he unwiso for us Il
send any ono to Genoa until after th'
funding bill has been disposed OF an,
, other international problems have beer
! settled. Then IL the President secs ~
, TO send some ono TO Genoa IL might bs
, to our advantage.
