Chairman Fordney of the house
ways and means committee, de-
clared today after he had been in
formed officially that the senate
finance committee majority finally
had determined upon foreign vail
uation as the underlying principle
of the tariff bill, which probably
will be reported to the senate to-
morrow.
1--WE win now insist on the origi-
nal American valuation plan as
were in the house BILL" Mr.. Ford
ney continued.
THE senate committee majority
went back on the compromise on
the wholesale selling price of the
imported article to which we agreed
and now that bargain is Off.
Asserting that the senate was
overwhelmingly" for American
valuation, the house committee
chairman said 1t was his judgment
that the senate managers would
agree to that valuation, when
the senate and house.
Mr.. Fordney declared that he
would never agree to congress ad-
journing until after the tariff bill
had been passed.
It's nonsense to talk about such
a thing" he said ANY man who
suggests such thing wants to de-
feat the tariff and therefore, is an
enemy to American industry and
labor"
: Roiterating that the house would
not yield on the valuation question.
Mr.. Fordney said he did not believe
there were more than a dozen men

not stand firm for American val

there is no duty short Of 1000 tt
1000 per cent that would equsllze

would be extreme and the people
would not stand for them. 1t would

with one probably centering around

Sixty miners joined the union to-

ken: See Russo-Cerman
Pact as Stronger Bond
Between Allied Countries

COPYRIGHT 1922. New York Tribune Inc.
PARIS, April 23.it is seeming
paradox that complications envisaged
from the Russo German treaty should
have disturbed the world, while inspir-
ing France to new confidence France
has long been convinced of the ex-
istence of secret arrangement be-
status established at Versailles, and she
is thus reconciled to finding her prog
nostications correct. Internally her
confidence has not been affected, as she
interprets favorably any move to pro
mote stronger union between the
nine powers Of the greater and the
Little Entente. This group controls
the political economic situation in a
manner that Napoleon was never able
to achieve even after the Battle of
Jena, when military opposition was
supposedly eliminated.
New External Loan
Optimism regarding the working out
OF the reparation problem through an
external loan has been increased by
the success Of railroad issues con-
tracted for abroad on more favorable
terms than last year. Taking advan-
tage OF the greater easement in money
it is intended this spring to float a
gold loan FOR devastated regions at Gls
per cent, distributing the issues among
all neutrals IS we'll as in the United
States. The advantage Of this form Of
borrowing is evident when accompanied
by Improvement in the rate of ex-
change. as normal exchange will reduce
the interest burden to less than half.
The reduction of money rates is q
really fundamental development to-
ward the restoration Of financial sta
biity. The perpetual debt now stands
at 145, 900 100000 francs, on which the
cluding prewar liabilities Of 3O,OOO.-
Ooo, 900 francs. There ars in addition
J 10000, 900 900 francs remaining in the
form of bank note and Treasury bill
issues, costing only 81 ner cent for
interest charges. Consolidation of the
latter on reasonable terms will not
improve. the credit position by remoy-
ing uncertainty, but supply funds for
private enterprises.
Paper Money Restriction
Probably the greatest benefit from
the Genoa conference consists in the
plans for stabilization of the exchanges
and for restriction of the continued
printing of paper money without gold
backing. IF it becomes understood that
no country can secure a loan which
disobeys tho rules of the monetary
union. it would in effect be. putting a
wholesome responsibility on the ma
tions forming part of the convention

BERLIN. April %. While the tight
ness Of money arising from the indis-
position Of bankers to grant credits for
stock transactions is doubtless eXer-
cising a restraining influence on the
BOursc, the main cause of stagnation
of business this last week has unques
tionably been the Genoa conference,
which is being followed by the invest
ing public with anxious attention.
Apparently the view is gradually
gaining ground that the conference will
probably result in some sort Of for
eign loan or other arrangement which
will facilitate payment of reparations
by Germany, and thus tend to stabilize
economic conditions here. These hopes
have been the chief factor in keeping
up the mark, despite the rather unset
tling course which events at Genoa
have so far taken.
Shortage Of Money
The shortage Of money. which in
SCme quarters is attributed largely to
current payment of taxes, is vivdly
reflected in the statement Of condition
Of the Reich shank as of April Is, just
published. This shows an increase OF
nearly $500, 900 marks in the hold
ings of Treasury bills and Of $3.50.
100000 marks in note circulation.
Other signs, however, still point to
undiminished briskness of business in
all directions. An official report for
the last month states that at preseH'

Bank and Oil Merger
The chief topic of conversation in
business circles is the fusion just an
nounced of the Deutsche Bank with the
German Petroleum Company, an enter
prise which it fathered. The latter's
chief asset was a maj orty of the shares
of the Steau Romano, which were sold
in October. 1920, to anticipate their OK
preparation by tho Rumanian govern
ment. The proceeds of the sale amount
cd to 100000 Swiss francs. To com
plete The anna lgamation the Dcutsche
Bank proposes to double its share cap
ital to 100000. 900 marks. Four of the
new shares thus created will be given
in exchange for each share of the pc
trOleum company.
BY this transaction the Deutsche
Bank will secure control Of fresh fluid
resources without the necessity Of ap-
pealine to Tic public at .his rather un-
proptlous uncture. As its open re
serves amount to 200, 900 900 marks.
the bank will once more take first place
among the leading German financial
undertakings. The comparatively small
