The bureau said the most

last year are in the foreign sur

him, in Martha; that he was quite un-

WASHINGTON, Oct. 81. U.R)-
President Hoovers optimistic an
nouncement of an improvement in
the credit situation served today to
bolster up confidence and strength
en- the growing belief the country
has turned the corner toward re-
covery from the business depression.
Hoarding of money has ceased,
the President said. Bank failures
are diminishing. Withdrawal of
gold to foreign countries has
slowed down. Price of wheat and
cotton are rising. To these signs,
other officials added an increase in
the general commodity price level
in the past three weeks, a noticea-
BILE pickup in retail trade, steady
ing of the stock market.
The turn for the better has come,
as was anticipated, since the Presi-
dent announced his financial relief
program consisting of the National
Credit corporation as an immediate
agency to clear up and broaden the

credit structure by congressional
action.
The President gave credit TO the
program he formulated and laid be-
fore congressional leaders on Oc-
tober 7. as did other officials here,
who have privately watched trend
in the last few days that gave them
hope. It was left for President
Hoover to express.
II am happy to note the very
great change which is evident in the
credit situation since the announce
ment Of October T." the President
said.
Evidence over the last week in
dicates that not only has boarding
ceased, but actually S24,000,00O of
boarded money has returned to the
banks. The small bank failuse1
have almost ceased-the last re-
port showing only seven out of 90
900 total. Foreign exchanges are
returned to a basis at which it is
no longer advantageous to ship gold
abroad.
THE practical effect of this re-
covery is shown in an increase in
the price of wheat by 10 cents to
II cents bushel and cotton to SIS
to $40 bale
Indicating his conviction that the
worst is over, the President revealed
publicly the strain under which the
country has been in recent weeks.
Following abandonment of the
gold standard in England" he ex-
planned, "a wave of great apprehen-
sion spread over the country.
Hoarding of currency rose to the
high point Of s2OO,OOO,o0o a week
between that time and the an
nouncement of the credit pool and
ether credit measures.
Country bank failures had risen
to nearly 25 a day during this pc
riod. At the same time, the drain
of gold abroad due to the alarm
of foreign holders of American
credits had in this period risen to
as high as over S20O,000,000 week. 3"
Simultaneously with the Presi-
dents statement came an an
nouncement reflecting more stable
conditions in one foreign quarter
that has suffered heavily from the
world depression. Great Britain
paid back today to the Federal Re-
serve bank of New York and the
Bank of France s10o,0O0,OO0 Of the
joint $250,0O0,00o short-term credit
she borrowed, each getting s5o,O0O.-
900. England has been granted an
extension of 80 days for payment
of the rest.

Dempsey Denies
He Is Engaged

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Oct.
81. U.P)-Jack Dempsey, former
heavyweight champion, emphati-
cally denied today that he and Miss
Lavon Vincent, University of Utah
coed and beauty prize winner, were
engaged.
Just a casual friendship" Jack
explained to the United Press. I'VE
have known each other for a long
time and I hope we will always be
friends. But that's as far as it has
gone. We aren't engaged, nor is
there any immediate prospect of
such a development.
"Lavon's father, Joe Vincent. and
I are old pals. That's the reason
I've been at the Vincent home SO
much of late"
Dempsey was a bit annoyed over
reports at a romance. He spoke of
people "bothering" Miss Vincent
with inquiries about the affair.
Jack has been seen constantly
with the university girl and his in
terestS in that direction had been
construed as a budding romance.
Dempsey leaves next Saturday for
Des Moines, Iowa, where he will
set forth on another exhibition box
ing tour. When he winds up this
round of exhibition bouts, he hopes
to announce definitely, one way or
the other, whether he will accept a
major bout with some leading
heavyweight.
