ROADS AND EMPLOYMENT
Taking

Taking Governor Ericksons signature for granted, the gashigh-
way debenture act is over. It means some employment at once and
much more to follow; new money brought into the state; a real system
of highways and roads within four years. And the extra business
attracted to the state by the good roads will pay the interest on the
warrants and make a big dent in the principal Now if the refund
money could be turned into county funds to build lateral roads into
the country every piece of productive land would take on added val
ne because of reduced farm costs.

HOOVER STUDIES
DEPRESSION IN
SILVER PRICES
international Conference
Proposal Is Before
President.

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON. March I2.-The
world silver situation, one of the
prime causes of world depression,
occupied the attention Of President
Herbert Hoover today.
The Pittman resolution urging
him TO call an international confer
ence Of the major nations in an
effort to find some solution Of the
difficulty is before him for con-
sideration.
Adopted by the senate in the clos
Ing days of the session, the resolu-
ton proposed to open what some
believe may be pandora's box of
international problems, including
the British policy in India.
Mr.. Hoover's advisers indicate he
Is likely to dismiss the suggestion
for a conference, without action.
However, If he decides a conference
IS feasible, he may limit the agenda
to prevent it from being an inter
national ahront TO some Of the ma
tons involved, they say.
SuVer IAal Normal Price
In speeches, Mr.. Hoover has at
tributed some of the business re-
action in this country To the fall in
the world price of silver, which de-
pressed trade with silver standard
nations Of the far east and South
America.
He has been deeply interested also
because of his early engineering ex-
perlience in developing the silver
mines of Nevada, Australia and
China, the three localities most
deeply interested.
Statistics have been submitted to
him showing the existing price Of
silver is less than half its normal
value. Since January, 1929, it has
tumbled from 57h cents an ounce
TO 26A cents. It's normal price is
around go cents. That average was
maintained during the last ten years.
Decrease In Exports
The drop has carried with it a
q per cent decrease in American
exports to China, comparing the
years 1929 and 1880. Imports from
China declined 36 per cent.
Backers of the resolution in con-
gress, including its author, Senator
Pittman dem, New, charged
British policy toward India is largely
responsible. India is being changed
from silver to a gold basis and
much Of its silver coinage has been
melted and supposedly shipped to
China, debating the currency there.
China's purchasing power has been
affected thereby and American
miners have suffered.

Satisfaction in U. S.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, March IL. -
Looking back over a decade of sue
cessive naval reductions which the
United States inaugurated in 1921,
American officials took satisfaction
today in the willingness of the
world to lay down at least some of
its arms.
This reflection was inspired by
the Franco-Italian naval agree
ment, particularly as it affects
battleships From a limit of 175,OO0
tons for these two countries set up
by the Washington treaty, they
have cut their capital ships until,
by 1886, each will have only 1866
tons under the retirement age limit,
officials pointed out.
