He said that although he could not de- termine the cause of the discoloring in the leaves of the plaintiffs grape | vines he was positive that the ir- jury could not be made by the sul- phuric gas settling on the leaves as it takes at least 40 tons of oil con taining much greater amount of sulphuric acid, burning continuous.

STREET WONDERS
 AT MONEY RATES
Possible Debt Reduction May
 Be Responsible

New York, July IS. P-Wall Street is turning over in it's collec- tive mind the interesting theory that q too rapid reduction of the public debt may be responsible for the troubled credit situation, high money rates and general market nervousness.
 It is estimated that in eight years the Treasury has put more than $1,300, 1000 into the money market in the form of surplus funds or credits, or about S1 900, 900 viding a plethora of funds which the Federal Reserve system and its member banks are said to have been finding it difficult to accom- modate and which commerce and industry have been unable to use.
 The source Of Treasury funds was the conversion of approxl- niately S3.70O.000,00 surplus col lected from taxes into debt reduc- tlon and application to the sink ing fund, about S2,075, 5,00o.o00, to the same purpose. Some $1.1S0,- 600, 900 is estimated to have been received from foreign governments and miscellaneous sources. while redemption of certificates of indebt- edness. Treasury notes and Liberty bonds is said to have made up the balance.
 It is argued that this continued and extensive flow of funds into the market made possible the building of the greatest speculative struc- ture the world ever has seen. and that efforts to control the nation wide wave of speculation produced money market manipulations quite as disturbing and undesirable. Federal Reserve efforts to this end. it is pointed out. have had the most depressing effect upon the market for government securities rather than upon the stock market
 Federal Reserve authorities, how ever. are inclined to view such a theory as untenable, if not enHrely fallacious. They declare that while the Federal Reserve rediscount rate was raised in an effort to check the record bank borrowings

 The Federal Reserve holds that high money rates are due chiefly to gold exports. increased demand for currency. changes in reserve requirements or in Federal Reserve bank deposits and sale of govern ment securities. It is pointed out that nearly $3o0.Oo0,oO0 in gold has been exported from this coun- try during the first half of the year, largely to meet stabilization requirements of European govern ments, while other factors for tighter money" have been equally apparent.
 Exports of gold represent q loss of reserve funds and consequently banks have been forced to increase their borrowings at the Federal Re- serve bank. Moreover. brokers loans. reported by banks al loans flor account of others" have in- creased some $So0.o00,00o during the first half, and have shown no appreciable tendency toward reduc- ticn.

Gales was elected on the slogan: "Effec- tive suffrage; no reelection" Various means of making such succession possible. however, were being discussed in the capitol. These means included the appoint ment by congress of provisional president to assume office on the ex- piration of Gales term in December. It was generally believed that if this plan were followed that Aaron Saenz. former minister of foreign affairs and now governor of Nuevo Leon, would be named provisional president. Saenz was among the i foremost of Obregon's supporters and is brother-in-law of one of Gales daughters.
 General Election
 A general election could then be called and Gales might offer him. self for reelection without violating the clause in the constitution con- corning direct succession.
 Other suggestions were that con- i stitutional amendment allowing Cal les to succeed himself in the pres ent emergency might be asked or that the constitutional amendment that extends the presidential term to six years might be interpreted as ap- plying to President Gales. who was elected for a four year term. This would retain him in office until 1880.
 Mexico City, July 19 UP)-Pres- ident Gales is likely to remain in office for two years more in order to overcome the difficulty of filling the presidency after the assassina- 1 ton of President elect Obregon, it was indicated authoritatively today.
