AN old COMPLAINT
WITH NO REMEDY.
Owners of Cars Feel They
Are Victims of Unfair
Regulations
CROWDING ON STREETS

Owners of cars feel that they
have grievance against somebody,
the city fathers. the police or
somebody else, they are not sure
which. They argue that owing TO
the general use of cars these times,
no objection should be made to
machines standing any place there
Is room for them without interfer-
ing with public travel. This
sounds logical enough, but after
all, there is some good ground for
objection on the part of storekeep-
ers to believe that cars contain
ing people who want to do bust
ness in their stores, cannot stop
near their stores, instead of hav-
ing to drive several blocks away.
and then pick their way back. Of
ten having to cross streets where
they are In danger of getting hurt.
The argument of the drivers of
cars is based on the fact that they
pay license and therefore have
a right to use the streets SO long
as they do not hinder travel
through the public ways. They
object to being tagged" because
their cars stand against the curb
beyond certain time. Well, this
is a very old source of complaint,
and there does not appear to be
any remedy. 1t would seem that
the police use much discretion and
frequently allow cars to park for
longer periods than the law al
lows.

WOOL MARKET

Boston, June 30.-UP)-De-
mand for wool in the Boston mar
ket to-day was not as keen as
heretofore, but business on the
whole was considered fair.
June ended with wool at the top
of the recent price advance. Grad
ed and original bag territory woods
both advanced IL per cent in price
during the month, and fleece woods
gained to 10 pei, cent on the
average.
Ohio delaine fine combing wool
was quoted to-day at 1880 cents
pound in the grease, with half
blood wool at the same price,
three-eight blood at 32-34 cents,
and quarterblood at 1898 cents.
Territory woods sold steady at TO-
10 cents clean basis; halfblood ter
ritory wool at 70-71 cents; three
eighth blood at 64-65 cents: and
quarter-blood at 61-62 cents. Texas
eight-month woods were quoted at
67-68 cents and very choice warp

Hopes OF Agreement
Seem Brighter
CONTINUED from Page ~

Phillips said that no messages
had been sent from this govern
ment to any of the other confer
ring governments who have APP
pealed to President Roosevelt to
agree on some statement regarding
sterilization.
Messages sent to this govern
ment, he said, have been trans
mitted to the president and to the
treasury department. Secretary
Woodin, i'll in New York, he said,
was being kept informed of devel-
opments.
During the morning Ambassador
De La Boulaye of France called on
Phillips to present the French po-
sition of stabilization.
The French ambassador was UNI
derstood to have told Phillips that
a further depreciation of his ma
tons currency must follow If
France is forced off the gold
standard. Such move, he was un-
derstood to have said, is inevitable
If steps are not taken to prevent
uncontrolled fluctuation of world
currencies.
1t was understood that some
cognizance might be taken by the
United States of the plea of nations
attending the world economic con-
ference that it make its position
clear in reference to fixing the gold
standard as the goal of ultimate
sterilization. The task Of agreeing
on proper phraseology in a state
ment dealing with so complicated
and delicate a subject appeared
to be the most important factor in
framing such response.

DISTRICT INDUSTRY
IS HOLDING UP WELL
Washington Enterprises Suf-
fer Less Than Manufactures
of Other Cities.

Asserting that District of Columbia
industries produce a greater volume
of specific products than 35 States,
Robert B. Swope, chairman of the
Washington Chamber of Commences
Committee on Manufactures, declared
in a radio broadcast address last night
that Washington manufacturers have
suffered less from the depression than
other jurisdictions.
Mr.. Swope spoke over Station WMAL
under auspices of the Chamber of Com
merce. Citing figures supplied the
trade body by the Bureau of the Census,
the speaker showed that while in 1929
the District had SAT establishments, the
number was reduced to 497 in 1881.
The wages paid in 1929 in these in
dustries was S15,512 I'LL while in 1881,
after two years of depression, the total
was $13,965 ,048. Thus. Mr.. Swope
concluded, the loss in the number of
industrial establishments was per cent.
Before placing too much emphasis
on this loss" Mr. Swope continued,
