Washington Ticker
BY CLINTON COFFIN,


Associated tTeSS FlnanClaI writer.
French monetary and economic policy
is deemed by American governmental
observers to be one decisive factor in
influencing the present outflow of
monetary gold from the United States
Last weeks gold shipments from this
country apparently exceeded $40, 000,-
900, and tentative agreements of the
Federal Reserve Bank indicate that
heavy gold exports will continue for
some indefinite period into the future
Though American gold stocks are in
all quarters considered adequate to
meet a drain heavier than the worIo
is likely TO impose, the somewhat novel
part that France Is playing in the
movement has caused considerable al
tention to be focused on that country's
fiscal system. In former years gold eX-
port from the United States has been
mainly directed to London, and brought
about automatically by the existence of
higher interest rates abroad than those
prevailing in New York.
In the present gold movement the
element of higher interest levels abroad
than those offered in the United States
is present. but there also is. banking
authorities believe. another very evident
factor. That is the policy of the
French banking authorities to build up
that country's gold reserves to new
high points France now has a none
tary gold reserve of about 81 400 100000
and it is estimated that credits its
banks have in centers like New YORK,
London and Amsterdam would enable
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-12-16

France to draw perhaps $1,000, 000, 00U
additional in gold from the world
Washington information is that some
large portion of this outstading credit
is now in process of being turned into
gold brought home to France, though
it is not likely that all will be So
called in.
Purposes behind the policy are also
fairly clear. French banking specialists
believe their country to be in readiness
to reassume it's traditional role as an
investor in foreign securities on large
scale, which function has been little in
evidence since 1914. A great gold re-
serve would facilitate foreign financing,
and the existing situation in world
money markets facilitates the French
endeavor 1t seems likely that most OF
the new stocks will be drawn from the
United States.
In spite of the fact that American
manufacturers of goods going to export
are and have been for many years entitled
to important drawback of customs and
other taxes, it is official opinion that
good many concerns fail to avail them
selves of the privileges. Treasury de-
ciSiOnS coming out for the first week OF
December dealing with new and old ap-
plications for tax return under the draw
back provisions indicate, however, that
increasing attention is being paid to its
advantages by business houses.
It is the theory of the drawback
system, countenanced by both tariff and
internal revenue acts. that the fabricator
of any finished article going to export
ought not to be required to pay import
duties on any material actually acquired
and included in the finished article.
Certain internal revenue taxes are like
wise refundable There are, of course.
formalities to be complied with by a
business house seeking to take advantage
of the system, in order to insure pro-
lection against fraud. To date this
fiscal year customs duties aggregating
$9,244,O00 have been refunded by the
Treasury, as drawback payment in part,
though the figure also includes re-
payments of customs on re-exports.

RHOADES ASSUMES
INDIAN BUREAU lob
New Commissioner Plans to
"Wean" Red Man Out of
4sr
Government Care.
By the Associated Press.

ny the Associated fTeSS.
Charles J. Rhoades Of Philadelphia,
taking up the duties of commissioner
of Indian affairs today, faced the re-
sponsibility Of supplanting the century
old policy Of the Government toward
the red men and developing another
which, in the words of Secretary Will
bur, will enable him to work himself
out of a job.
Banker, president of the Indian
Rights Association, an official of the
American Academy of Political and So
cial Science and a member of the Ameri-
can Philosophical Society. he was
chosen for the post after Dr. Wilbur
had declared that the new chief Of In
dian affairs must "wean" the red men
from the Indian reservations and out
o8 Government care, establishing them
As Independent and self-suStaining mem
bers Of the community.
Job Question Is Important.
As starter he suggested the estab-
Nshment Of employment Offices to place
the Indian In suitable job as soon as
his education and training are COM
pleted.
The post Mr.. Rhosdes succeeds to
long has been a target of criticism from
political and Indian welfare groups. His
immediate predecessor, Charles H.
DuIAC, I1d0 USeIi uk1OeT severe congress
sional fire for months before he SUBJ
mitted his resignation, and it was dur
ing his administration that the cele-
brated jackson Barnett Case arose.
Policy May BE Unpleasant.
That the Transformation OF policy may
be, while healthful, not altogether pleas

weaving process, the Indian be handed

Mr.. Rhoades' interest In the Indian
was inherited from his father, who took
an active part In movements for the
welfare of the red man. An omen of
good fortune. IN the opinion Of many
friends of the Indian, is that Mr..
Rhoades, like President Hoover, Is q
Quaker, follower of william Penn, whose
fair dealing with the Indian produced
one of the bright pages of early Ameri-
can history. Mr.. Rhoades will be aided
in his new task by a fellow-townsman,

sistant commissioner today. He also
long has taken an interest In Indian af-
