Grain Market

CHICAGO, January 8.-Grain prices

affected by stock market downturns and

BOARDING SHOWN AS DESTROYER
OF CREDIT BY BUSINESS WRITER

Money-hoarders who have concealed
a billion and a half dollars of the Ma
tions currency will soon bitterly regret
their position, Samuel Crowther pre-
diets in the February Ladies Home
Journal.
Depicting to the women of America
the grave consequences of withholding
money from circulation, Mr.. Crowther,
writer on. political and economic cub
jects and confidant of Presidents and
statesmen, explains how the gold stand
ard and the banking system function,
and how they are affected and business
is crippled by the withdrawal OF cur
rency through boarding which, he says,
ties up credit, stops industry and causes
unemployment.
Creation of Credit.
For every dollar banked, Mr.. Crow
theirs figures show, $40 in credit-our
most important medium of exchange
are created through the operation of
our banking system. Conversely, every
dollar withdrawn from circulation and
hoarded curtails the Nations credit re-
sources.
Self-interest, as well as considerations
of national welfare suggest that money
should not be boarded now, Mr.. Crow
ther points out. His discussion is in
line with the T-point platform of the
American Economists Committee for
Women's Activities, prompted by a re-
cent editorial in the Ladies' Home Jour-
nal, Its Up to the Women" urging
normal spending and saving on Amer
ica's homemakers.

ton of other years There are few new
factors. Those who then faced the
facts and acted in accord with them
came through better off. Those who
quaked with fear and hid their money
came out losers.
Those who have now exchanged
their reason for fear are boarding
about billion and half dollars. They
are robbing the country of more than
IS billions in credit money-enough to
make business good and employment
general.
Money Defined.
Indirectly they are robbing them
pendS upon the state of business Also
as though they picked out a third Of
their money and burned it.
ITO understand why all this is so
it Is only necessary to know a little
about money-what it is, what 1t does
and how it comes into being.
"A dollar, to most people, is money
IF that dollar buys more than usual
prices are said to be low; if it buys less
than usual prices are said to be high.
When times are hard the advice is
always to save. But these are exactly
the times when not to save. Money
which Is boarded during hard times,
when prices are always low, will dimin-
iSh in value, for when prices advance 1t
will buy less. Prices are now very low.
but undoubtedly will rise; that Is to
say, money will soon purchase less than
1t does now. Those who are boarding
money are going to have a great

TARIFF REDUCTIONS

General Motors Executive Believes
Prosperity Would Be En-

BY the Associated Press.

BOSTON, January 8.-Alfred P.
Sloan, jr., president Of the General Mo-
tors Corporation, yesterday said that
undoubtedly, In truly economic sense,
the prosperity of all the people Of the
world would be tremendously enhanced
through a gradual lowering OF all tariff
walls
Such action, he said in an address to
the Boston Chamber Of Commerce,
would permit those countries best able
to most eficiently serve the world on
any specific thing to produce that spe-
cifc thing. But, he added nations are,
and probably must necessarily be, selfish
Therefore" Sloan said, "it seems to
me that, irrespective of what might be
possible, we may as well accept the fact
that at least until the peoples constt-
tuting the various nations, especially
those of the United States, radically
change their viewpoint, the only thing
we can do Is to continue to capitalize
TO the fullest possible extent our home
market, the greatest by all odds that
exists throughout the world, our over
seas markets becoming incidental rather
than Of primary concern, and TO ADJUST
our economic structure with that plan
in view"

SURVEY Of LIVING
COSTS COMPLETED
Labor Department Reports
Result of Inquiry Suggested
by Ford Company.
.e Labor Department said today

The Labor Department said today
that the international labor office at
Geneva had completed its investigation
into living costs in cities where Ford
motor car plants are located and that
they range from SO TO l04 per cent OF
those at Detroit.
Making public a study originally
started at the request of the Ford Co.,
which sought data on which 1t might
ascertain what the company would nave
to pay European workers TO give them
a wage comparable to that paid IN De-
troit, the department also compared
wages actually paid in European and
Detroit plants.
The study is adjusted to August /.
1t takes the Detroit wage Of $688 aver
age per day for eight hours work as
100. 1t was found that the cost Of
living in various European cities was
as follows:
Stockholm, 80 to 1o4 per cent of De-
troit; Frankfort, Germany, IS to 95;
Cork, Irish Free State, IS; Copenhagen,
83 to 81; Berlin, SO to co. Helsinki,

Turkey, 65, and Barcelona, Spain, So.

tanned from the Ford Co. the actual
wages paid per hour in Europe and re-
duced the percentage to dollars and
cents. 1t found the following increases
would be necessary:
Antwerp, from $2.0s to $4.l6; Bar
celona, s2.64 to 81 Copenhagen, s5.52
to $3.50 TO 1924; Cork, 1882 to 1884;
