LAVA IN IDAHO
 TELLS STORY
Formations Along River Relates Tale of Fight
 for Its Existence

Boise, Idaho (UP)-Lava flows in Idaho continued probably as late as 1492, geologists concluded after a study of the Craters Of the Moon, near here.
 Much, of their conclusion was based on discovery of a cedar tree in which growth rnigs were found warped and withered during the period. Even at the present date the area contains much of it's nat ural heat. Great bubbling and swirling pools are seen in the ter ritory, but the action gradually is receding, naturalists explained.
 Formations along the great Snake river tell a tale of fight for its existence against the chok- ing flow of glowing red lava. The river bed is lined with jagged lava faults, through which the water has cut.
 The lava flow has subsided to a secluded territory in the Crater of the Moon district. Huge cones of the once hot lava dot the cra- ters section far into the west to- ward the Shoshone. At night, they appear to be gigantic paper sacks, into which thundeious blasts have been forced, causing the bottoms to tear open. The jagged edges re- mained sharp. Far into their in- bling with white-hot engulfing lava that sems to reach hungrily into the sky.

ION BRISK TRADING.
Market Moves Forward
Steadily After Irregu|arity
in Opening Sales.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

special DlSpatch 10 lne star.
NEW YORK, April 18.-Except for
brief period at the opening, today's
stock market was active and strong.
The best prices were made in the last
hour and the close was not far below
the best of the session.
The sugars were the leaders, followed
closely by the steels and the rubbers,
but all the industrials which had any
commodity attraction at all were ac-
lively bought.
The upward swing was so strong that
it took along with it, although to a
much less degree, the rails and the
utilities. American Sugar refining not
only touched a new high, but at so
was up 6 points on the day. Gains
elsewhere were not as pronounced, but
there were a number Of advances run
ming from 2 to points.
The market was not impressed by
the reports from Washington that the
drive for imitation had collapsed. On
the contrary, it displayed implicit faith
in some form of currency expansion.
And yet the factor of improving busi-
ness entered into the matter, especially
in the case of the steel and the can
stocks.
The announcement in the late after
noon that the Chicago & Eastern Illi-
nois had made application for reor-
ganization under the new bankruptcy
law tempered enthusiasm for the rails,
although such a development had long
been anticipated.
: Commodities were strong without ex-
ception. Spot sugar made a new 1888
high. Wheat went into new high
ground, with September selling above
IS cents bushel in Chicago. Gains at
the close ran from ll2 to 2 cents.
Other grains were up more or less.
with barley having the largest rise,
almost 4 cents in the case of the May
delivery. Silver, down at the opening,
was up 70 to 80 points in midafternoon.
The foreign exchanges fluctuated
nervously but uniformly against the
dollar In the last hour sterling was
up 4 cents, francs up points. the belga
up points. guilders up "a points and
Swiss francs up II points.
Volume of trading in stocks during
the first two hours was light and the
net changes mixed. American Tele-
phone made another new low by a frac-
ton and the public utilities generally
were heavy. Coca Cola was weak. of
at one time points, but that was a
special case.

PLAN TO REDUCE GOLD CONTENT|
OF u. S. DOLLAR is DISCUSSED
Proposed Devaluation Scheme Should d
Have Immediate Effect Upon Prices of
Commodities and Common Stocks.

ment could check this by stringent
regulations and espionage.
The primary effect of a devaluation
Of the dollar should be most visible
in prices of commodities and common
stocks. Assume that the price Of gold
were to be raised so per cent. The
logical sequel would be an advance in
quotctions Of, say. wheat and cotton. at
export points, Of about the same amount.
Prices for industrial stocks would be
expected to have similar appreciation.
One commentator states that the value
Of lumber and building materials would
at once rise so per cent.
The effect Of the higher prices would
be an increase in the purchasing power
Of producers of commodities, which. in
turn, would revive business in merchan-
disc normally b-ught on considerable
scale when farm prices are satisfactory.
The appreciation in lumber and build
ing materials would raise the values of
improved real estate and check fore
closure sales 1t would revive the build
ing industry, where there exists today
one Of the largest groups of unemployed.
Effect on Bonds.
A collateral effect of revaluation of
the dollar is its action on bonds. This

see how a changed basis for the dollar
could avoid some depreciation in Gov
ernment loans and In high-grade corpo-
ration mortgages. These are tradition
ally affected by their gold status and
by the going rates for money. Their
prices today are not influenced by any
ability to cover their service charges
On the other hand, a great number of
corporation bonds are currently quoted
at the lowest prices in their history
because OF the impending danger Of
default
They do not sell in any relation either
to the gold contract in the indenture
or to the current money rate. If the
revaluation stimulates industry, thae
bonds will gain their proper proportion
Of return in increased earnings and,
consequently, the danger of their de-
fault will lessen. Therefore, bonds Of
this type ought to advance, perhaps
even more than common stocks
The present price Of gold of s20.67
per ounce was established nearly 100
years ago by Congress, after it had been
set at $l9.39 an ounce in the year 1892
Except for a period during the panics
Of 1887 and 1857 and from 1862 to 1879,
this figure has been consistently main
tanned. The fact that there is now
active consideration Of a change in the
price level Of gold is one of the many
evidences of the unprecedented char
acter of the financial crisis by which
the country is faced.

Special Dispatch to The Star.

NEW YORK. April l8.-The momen-
tum toward imitation has become so
strong that 1t is unwise to close one s
eyes or ears to 1t, even though 1t may
not be regarded as the proper means of
correcting the present economic troubles.
1t Is force that must either spend it
self or be diverted in a way that will
do least harm. 1t is today sufficiently
prominent in discussions in Congress
and among individuals to warrant seri-
GUS attention.
The trend that the agitation for i'm
proving the price level has taken re-
Gently is toward devaluation Of the
dollar. Advocates of it maintain that
tive method of lifting burdens from
debtors and promoting industrial ac-
tivity, but that it can be accomplished
more quickly than other forms of in
flation, and. in the end. will leave less
unpleasant reminders of a distressing
chapter in the financial history of the
country.
Power Vested in Congress.
The Constitution of the United States
provides that Congress shall have
power to coin money and regulate the
value thereof" The present price of
gold is $2067 per ounce. The content
Of the dollar is 1922 grains of fine
gold. One recommendation Is that a
new price Of s36.17 per ounce be es-
tablished; another that the 1922 grains
standard of gold in the dollar be re-
duced to 1872 grains. under which an
ounce of gold would be worth S3l.
1t is taken for granted that any legis-
lation invoked for the purpose Of
changing the gold content of the dollar
must become effective overnight, so that
there could be no preliminary specu-
lation based on it, as there would OBJ
viously be if the subject were debated
and 1t was evident that change was
imminent. In this respect the situation
in the United States Is different from
that which prevailed abroad a few
years ago. when devaluation occurred
after a long period Of imitation and
such countries as France, Belgium and
Italy established new gold basis at
point where values, according to the
current price index. were at approx
imately parity with those when the
obligations affected were incurred.
The immediate effect OF reducing
the gold content Of the dollar would
be to make gold worth more in pro-
portion to the reyaluation basis. Those
who possess gold would profit by the
transaction 1t is estimated that this
gain would be over 81 900 100000 on
the gold reserves held in the Federal
Reserve banks. There would be more
boarding of gold unless the Govern
