Turning to internal affairs, the
shake-up in the Treasury has set a
lot of people guessing, and alarmed
the conservative Sound money
interests, who had been hoping that
Mr.. Roosevelt was about to aban-
don his currency program. Civ
ing Secretary of the Treasury
woodin an indefinite leave of abb
sence is merely the Presidents way
of stalling off applicants for his
Job. Henry Morgenthau, Jr., now
acting Secretary of the Treasury,
will doubtless have the title as well
as the work if he makes good. He
is personally as close to the Presi-
dent as anyone in Washington. He
is regarded as neither ultra-radical
nor ultra-conservative. He is i'll
full sympathy with the Administra-
tons program of depreciating the
dollar in international trade-that
is, in terms of gold-until a point
IS reached at which all of the world
currencies can be stabilized on a
new gold basis.
What many Of the Administra-
TONS critics overlook, it is pointed
out here by the Presidents friends,
is that all of the so-called "infla-
ton" of the dollar as a result of
putting the price Of gold up does
not affect the slundness of the
dollar here at home. The Govern
mnt's credit is still good, these au-
thorities say, and even the silver
certificate, with only a fw cents
worth if silver at present gold
prices, behind it, is just as good a
dollar as it ever was. But with
all the gold out Of private hands
and in the Governments control,
gold figures as money only in set
Ting international balances. The

washington-The shifting pano-
rama of the New Deal brings a
new picture to the fore every few
days. But each succeeding picture
is a little clearer than what preced-
ed it, so that it becomes easier to
understand the Administration s
program and to deduce its policies.
The recognition Of Soviet Russia.
is easy enough to understand. That
government has now continued for
sixteen years, which is pretty good
evidence that it is a stable govern
ment. The failure of the United
States to recognize it in the past has
been based on two points, primari-
". One point was that the Soviet
government of Russia refused to
recognize the debts of the old
Czarist Government of Russia and
its successor. the other and more
popular ground Of fnon-recogni-
ton was the avowal by the Bolshe-
wiki in their earlier experiments
that they were out to convert the
whole world to Communism and
intended to start Red revolutions
everywhere.
Russia seems to have discovered
that the Capitalistic nations are not
going to make any trouble for it
50 long as it doesn't make trouble
for them, and Maxim Litvinoff,
the Russian envoy, seems to have
convinced Mr.. Roosevelt that
his promise. on behalf of his gov
eminent. to lay off Communist
propaganda in the United States, is
n that will be kept.
Carolina watchman. [volume] (Salisbury, N.C.) 1871-1937, 1933-12-01

As to the debts, the present gov
eminent of Russia is not much more
remiss than some Of the other tor
eign governments which owe much
more money to the United States.
American business and banking
interests who have made some OF
the private loans to old Russia that
have not been paid have assured
the President that they are willing
10 hold those claims in suspense,
hoping to work them out some
way through the new business
which recognition makes possible.
There are also guarantees in the
agreement with Russia of religious
liberty for American citizens living
or travelling in Russia, the RICH
to employ American lawyers if they
get into trouble, and freedom to
travel anywhere on proper pass
ports.
The statesmanlike view of the
Russian agreement is that it goes
some distance in removing a possible
seed for a future war. The bust
ness view that Russia is a good Gus
toner for hundreds of millions a
year of American manufactured
goods, and has a lot of valuable
raw materials to sell to US. And
the Soviet government points with
pride that it and its banks and bust
ness men have neve failed to pay
any foreign obligations incurred
since they came into power.
