stated in well informed circles, that all
the monies advanced to JugoSlavia Will
have to be employed only for economic
purposes. These have been clearly in
dicated by the Jugoslav government in
the conversations with the banks rep
resentativeS. Not a cent Of the loan
can be used for any other purposes
without ~the specific consent of the
bankers. Finally, the bankers are con-
WINGED that they are taking no risk,
since the internal political situation in
JugoSlavia is reported to be stable.
Conversations for this loan started in
Belgrade year ago. At that time a.
representative of the Rothschild Bank,
after visit to Belgrade, reported all
versely, as the antagonism between the
Serbs and Croats was at its height, and
It looked as If a revolution might break
out at any moment.
Then King Alexander took the mat
ter in hand and established q Dictator
ship. This apparently has been a sue
cess. The bankers agents in Jugoslavia
have reported that the country as a
whole has accepted the Kings dictator
ship as the only solution for settling
the arguments between Serbian and
Croatian politicians. Today, it Is said,
the -dictatorS enjoys the complete
loyalty of his subjects.
Under these circumstances the Roths-
child Bank agreed to join the other
two banking groups and Jugoslavia was
granted the loan. This loan will be fol-
lowed by a more important one II the
first issue is foated successfully.

FINDS
@,ODO,O|]O LOAN
Reported Negotiations Sur
prise, Since Stronger Coun-
tries Have Failed.
By CONSTANTINE BROWN.

Negotiations for a loan of SIS, 0O0, 900
between the Jugoslav government and
a group Of international bankers have
been virtually completed, according to
reports received In Washington. The
leading banking houses participating in
this loan are: Banque d'Union Paris
ienne, which will handle the major part
Of the loan to be subscribed in Paris;
the Rothschild Bank, representing the
British interests, and Kuhn, Loeb &
Co. of New York This loan viii be
issued at 90 and will bear per cent
interest, according to reliable informa-
ton.
News Causes Comment
The news that Jugoslavia was able
to find loan in the international mar
ket in these days Of political unrest
is causing good deal of comment in
diplomatic quarters here. Other more
important and more powerful countries,
offering a more substantial profit to
the promoters and the eventual sub
scribers, have been knocking without
avail at the doors of American bankers.
They were told that the New York
foreign bond market was top-heayy
and that no foreign loan could be float
ed successfully under the present po-
ltical circumstances.
The fact that JugoSlavia, q compare
lively small state, was able to obtain
what more important countries have
not been able to, surprises most people.
Yet careful examination Of the situa-
ton would prove that international
bankers will always find money when
they see a possibility Of doing q profit
able business.
First, money is cheap in the world
today and a loan yielding per cent is
an attractive proposition, If it offers
Sufficient guarantees Of being repaid.
Second, the Jugoslav loan is made for
strictly economic purposes. The bank
'ers have specifically provided, 1t Is

ously with q meeting In washington to-
day OF Governors of the oil-producing
States, he said he has been trying for
more than 10 years to protect the Ma
tions oil supplies.
Perhaps" he said, "there Is no waste
in all of the other business combined
that equals the waste of the oil busi-
ness. What Is called competition in
the oil field is no more competition than
Is run on the bank"
In fact q run on q bank Is not as
much 'cut-throat competition as in an
oil f1eld because all the depositorS are
trying to get in their own money, and
in an oil field the operators are trying
to get not only their own oil, but every
body else's oil.
I'VE could not get sterilization In the
oil business because the bigger and
stronger companies did not want stabil-
ization. They could count the profits
they made from the constantly recur-
ring periods Of distress when they
would buy out first the little producer
and then the little refiner at their own
price"
He commended oil was the Nations
most important munition of war and
Its exhaustion would not only invite
other nations to make war upon us, but
would handicap us in the conduct OF
war.

COMMUNIST ACTS
DRAW LEGION FIRE.
Montgomery Veterans Meet
ina at Rockville Aimed at
Reds in America.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

ROCKVILLE, Md, January Is
Sponsored by the various American
Legion posts and auxiliaries of the
county, and with approximately 900
persons in attendance, a meeting aimed
at commuEistic activities in this coun-
try was held in the high school audi
forum here last evening.
Mrs. Lowell Fletcher Hobart, presi-
denE general of the National Society
of the Daughters Of the American
Revolution and the first president of
the American Legion Auxiliary, and
Mai. Gen. Amos A. Fries, formerly
chief of the Chemical Warfare Service
of the United States Army, were the
principal speakers, both pointing out
the dangers of communistic propaganda
and decrying a tendency to under esti-
mate its seriousness.
Declared Real Menace.
Mrs. Hobart, who has been promi-
nent in the anti-communistic cam
paign that has been in progress
throughout the country, particularly
by patriotic organizations, stated that
her investigations had convinced her
that the teaching of Communism had
progressed sufficiently in this country
TO be regarded a real menace to Gov
GI0DlelI, anu bOAOl
of having heard a prominent worker
in the cause declare that Nationwide
unemployment nigh result in the over
throw of this Government and referred
to the possibility Of communfstic con-
nection with the existing unemploy-
ment situation in the country. She
also mentioned hearing another agi-
tator predict that the Government
downfall would eventually be accom-
pliShed through the ballot.
Mai Gen. Fries referred to the de-
plorable condition of the Russian peo-
pie under Soviet rule, declaring their
situation to be most hopeless and the
end not yet in sight, and charged Rus
STA is under the domination of the
''worst band of cutthroats that ever
ruled a people" He stated that one
way to help the Russian people and to
handicap the Communists in their ac-
tivities would be to refuse to buy Rus
sian goods. He criticized Protestant
ministers for preaching pacifism and
made a plea for adequate national de-
Tense.

FORTUNE LOST BY EX-PREMIER

Held on to Stock Despite
Drop From $14.60 to
40 Cents a Share.

BIRMINGHAM, England, January
l5.-Former Prime Minister Stanley
Baldwin revealed here last night that
a large part of his personal fortune
had been diSsipated because he had
kept it in the British iron trade.
Shares which were worth f3 (about
$146O) when he became premier in
1928, he said, were worth 20 pence
Gao cents) now.
TT may have been bad business on
nv part" Mr.. Baldwin said. But
when you have an old name in bust
ness against which nothing ever has
been said, and when you know the
public comes into the business on the
strength of that name, it Is an i'm
possibility to throw your shares on the
market, knowing that in all human
probability the loss will fall on them,
not you"

HARRISBURG, Pa, Sept. 25
GN.SO.-Concentration Of the
wealth of the country in the
hands of a few is held largely
responsible for the present lack
of prosperity by Governor Clifford
Pinchot, of Pennsylvania.
His definition of prosperity in
cludes the belief that a country
Is prosperous when the largest
number of people have the great.
est possible amount If comfort
and well-being. That should In
clude farmers, laborers, mechan.
les, white-collar people-every-
body. He said:
81 don't call an orgy Of stock
gambling prosperity. / don't
call it prosperity when vast
riches face great want. The
proper purpose Of government Is
the general welfare and when
that is achieved, we have pros.
perity, and not otherwise.
"The only way we can get out
of the terrible ruin we are in is
first to levy the heaviest taxa
tiOn on all those who can afford
to pay and secure dollars
worth of services for every dollar
spent.
