Despite the sharp decline in the
value of commodities exchanged
between the U. S. and other
countries last year, the invisible
trade, and particularly information

close to the level of the proceed

brought out by Assistant Secre-
tary of Commerce in a foreword
to the departments delayed re-
port on the balance of information
al payments for 1880. Part OF
the international financial opera
tions reflected in the study, he
pointed out, have a close relation
ship to commercial operations.
The most important result of
the accord between France and the
United States will be to relieve
Germany of the burden of rep

The rebuff which Vice-President
Curtis and Senator Capper (Rep.
Kan.) received from James c.
Stone, chairman of the Farm
Board, appears to have taken the
heart out of the opponents of the
boards policy. Bitter resentment
against the board exists and grows
daily, but the feeling that unless

ON GRASSHOPPER CATCHES

Manti, Utah,-(UP)-One might
suppose that princely income
could hardly be earned by selling
grasshoppers for one cent pound.
Nevertheless many hopper"
hunters are planning to make a
fat income over the one cent
bounty offered by Sanpete county

The county commission decided
that the one cent bounty incen-
tive was needed to expidite the

The United States will partlcl-
pate in the general disarmament
conference to be held in Geneva
next year. An invitation to send
representatives to the parley was
received by the President. 1t will
be accepted formally, according to
a White House announcement. Ihe
invitation was forwarded by the
League of Nations, evidently inn
pressed by Mr.. Hoover's recent
utterances regarding disarmament
and the American Governments S

toward a reduction in military ex-
penditures to aid economic rehabll-
itation. The Administrations well
come of the invitation is further
evidence that this Government is
determined to press for disarma-
ment as a sequence to President
Hoover's moratorium. 1t also
demonstrates that the Admins
tration's view of our relation to
the arms conference has changed
radically and that Mr.. Hoover now
regards it Americas duty to be
an active participant.
A movement has been started
by the Democratic Borsen Courier
to name some important street
.Hooverstrausse" in recognition of
the American Presidents inltia-
tive in attaining a reparations
moratorium. There is a possibil-
ity that the street might be NAM
