STABILITY Of
DOLLAR WILL
Be OBJECTIVE
Roosevelt Orders Survey To
Prevent Violent Fluctuations
In Purchasing Power.
BRAIN TRUST INCREASED
Two More Professors Join Gov
ernment Forces To Study Cur
rency Problem.
By Isle c. WILSON

WASHINGTON, July II. U.H -
President Roosevelt was reliably re-
ported today to have ordered sur
yey of ways of managing the coun-
try'S currency to prevent violent
fluctuations in purchasing power OF
the dollar
The Presidents ultimate goal is
to keep the purchasing power Of
the dollar stable after it reaches a
level satisfactory to the adminiStra-
ton.
Addition of two new professors to
the brain trust" was interpreted
by we'll informed persons as move
in that direction.
Questioners at the White House
were informed today that the two
professors will make a study OF the
whole fiscal Set-up including man
aged currency.
Professor James Harvey Rogers
of Yale and Professor George Fred
erick Warren of Cornell opened Of
ficeS in the commerce department
today, oStenSibly to coordinate ef-
forts to balance the budget. Rog-
ers is an expert on foreign markets
and credits. Warren is an agri-
cultural economist. They conferred
yesterday with Mr.. Roosevelt who
afterward received Eugene Black,
governor of the federal reserve
board, and acting Treasury Secre-
tary Acheson.
Roosevelt on July 3, in a mes
sage to Secretary of State Hull in
London described the ideal dollar
as one (which a generation hence
will have the same purchasing and
debt paying power as the dollar
value we hope 70 attain in the near
future" Managed currency appears
essential in such program.
Work On Budget
The budget problem assigned to
Rogers and Warren is a $4,000 900
proposition involving $7,635, 900 900
of short term paper and the ques-
ton whether Sc, ,268 100000 worth of
Liberty bonds shall be called next
October or be permitted TO mature
on schedule five years hence.
Approximately 33 per cent OF the
$4,000, 100000 national debt is rep
resented by obligations maturing
from 80 days to five years from the
date of issue. AS short loans ma
ture the treasury has issued new
short term obligations at very low
interest rates. But there is no as
surance that the investing public
might not decided to charge the
government more. The treasury 6
embarrassment in that event would
be considerable for if 81 900, 900 900
issue bearing one per cent were re-
funded at four, the carrying charge
would be increased from $4,000, 900
TO $40,000,000.
But when a loan is safely floated
for a long period, the treasury
knows exactly from year to year
how much the money will cost. 1t
is to remove the disquieting uncer-
tainties of the short term obliga-
tions that Rogers and Warren have
been named coordinators OF sur
vey of financial phases OF budget
balancing to decide when and how
it would be best to convert short
term paper into long term loans.
The Al per cent Liberty bonds
the fourth wartime issue-may be
called at the treasury's option next
october. They would be payable
in that event in April, 1884.

(SpeciaD-It is certainly graft
flying to read about one confer

Navajo Indians held a confer

could get along without the SER

The Indians said they were
doing it to save the white man
money. Who said the Indian
didn't have any humor?
The London conference voted
today to see if they meet to-
morrow. If they meet tomor-

BREAD PRICES
ARE WATCHED

WASHINGTON, July Il. (U.D -
Bread profiteers were found III
many cities of the country IN the
preliminary examination conducted
by the agriculture adjustment ad-
ministration, Frederic G. Howe, con-
sumers counsel of the administra-
ton, announced today.
STANDARD weights of bread loaVeS
are being reduced" Howe said.
Examination of bread price ad-
vanceS throughout the country
shows that they range from one to
four cents on the pound loaf. The
latter figure is an extreme example
of unjuStifiable increase.
"The efforts of the agriculture
adjustment administration for a re-
covery beneficial TO all classes are
not to be frustrated by profiteers
who choose TO put themselves out
side of the efforts of the nation
to reestabllSh a proper standard OF
living for all classes"
Howe promised that every effort
would be made to check food price
dQNdIlCtS WllCll ~ SO'N
factors. In arriving at costs, ne
said, increases in the market price
of raw materials, the processing
tax and wage increases will be
taken into consideration.
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace
meantime telegraphed the mayors
Of 40 cities in 25 states promising
the use of government power to
prevent unwarranted bread price
increases.
Local bakers today stated the
California Standardization law pro-
tects the consumer from alteration
in the weight of bread and that
criticisms as quoted above by the
agriculture adjustment administra-
ton were in all probability directed
toward such states that have no
such law.
The average increase in price for
bread in Imperial Valley, and some
other sections of California, is ap-
proximately one cent per pound,

The glare of light and the crash Of

there Is hardly any reason to be

A very comforting thought during

it." A companion saw runs to the
effect that IF you see the flash,
you're in no danger" For by the
time you see the lightning it's all
over but the noise. and noise cannot
do much damage physically.

The application of this technical

let yourself be the highest or most
