Appropriations Slashed.

The view that the board may be
kept intact is at variance with long
list of resolutions and bills designed to
dismantle the boards machinery, and
the fact that its appropriations are
sufficient for scarcely more than an
other six months
Because of outstanding loans to CO.
operatives it is a tremendously impor-
tant fiscal agent of the Government,
which leads some to suggest that sepa-
rate secretaries be set up in the De-
partment of Agriculture to take over
all phases of financial assistance to
agriculture in one unit and the pro-
motion of cooperative marketing in
another.

BUILDING HAS
FINE VIEW Of
THE POTOMAC
Apartment House at 1918
KaIorama Road Close to
Schools and Car Lines

A modern fireproof structure
in a fine residential section of
Washington is the apartment
at 1918 Kalorama Road, owned
and operated by A. S. Gar
diner, 932 Investment Building.
Constructed On a hill, the
building offers a view of the
entire city. From the top floor
the Potomac River can be seen.
ALL REFRIGERATED
The entire building has been
redecorated, repainted and re-
paired throughout, with all
floors done over. Free electric
refrigeration is included in the
rent.
Large, bright outside rooms
are supplemented with roomy
closets. Modern kitchens with
large pantries add to the con-
venience. All rear apartments
have porches.
NEAR TWO SCHOOLS
The apartment is just two
blocks from a public school
and within a halG block Of a
private school. It is within a
half block of either the Co
lumbia Rd. or Eighteenth st.
car lines.
A testimonial to the man
agement of the apartment is
the fact that many of the ten
ants have occupied apartments
since the building was con-
Structed.

Ia SALE OFFERS
IDEAL QUARTERS

The La Sale apartments at
1923 Connecticut Ave-, with 279
apartments, is one of the most
luxurious and largest buildings
of it's kind in Washington.
The La Sale uses the slogan
"Washington's Elite Downtown
Apartment" which is true in
every sense of the word.
Here you will find an ideal
downtown apartment offering
quick access to the business
section of the community, the
retail shopping district and the
theaters. This up-to-the-min-
ute apartment building has an
atmosphere of refinement and
dignity demanded by those who
wish to make their home near
the business section of Wash
ington.
With beautiful spacious s
lobby, 4-hour Secretarial
switchboard service, the La
sale offers every comfort and
convenience. It has a cafe and
grill, beauty parlor and many
other shops.
Among the outstanding fea-
lures of this building are the
studio apartments which are
located in the eleventh floor.
These are considered the finest
studio apartments south Of
New York and are always in
demand, being among the most
unusual and attractive in the
city.

Separating Screens
In DinetteS UrQed

The stove and sink are all
very well in the kitchenette,
but they do have a way of
overpowering the dining bay. A
screen set between the dividing
cupboards changes all that
when dinner is served"
There is, too, the problem of
having to leave the door open
in small hot kitchenette, leav-
ing it entirely exposed to the
view Of the guests in the ad-
joining living room. The screen
solves this problem, for, while
it can be folded to give privacy,
it also permits ventilation. The
back of it might even be fitted
out to hold all those miscel-
laneouS small tools which
crowd the single table drawer.

wayman Under the most favored ma
ton clause" we used to offer conces-
Sions to those who favored us. Under
the present policy we threaten repriSals
in the form of higher tariffs against
those who discriminate against us. This
is distinct decline in international eti-
quette, not to say morality. This easy
descent is not likely to be checked un-
til the rival nations can get together
on a basis of mutual exchange. conces-
sion and conciliation. The World Eco
nomic Conference has an opportunity.
Tariff restrictions, provided the tariff
schedules are published and not subject
to arbitrary increase, are not the worst
trade restrictions. The duties are
known, and an importer can figure on
them and decide whether traffic will
bear the cost or not But arbitrary in
creases by an executive make such ac-
curate calculations impossible. In Ger
many, for example, an arbitrary decree
may make it impossible to sell imported
goods, even after they have been ship
ped. Nothing is so bad for business as
the uncertainty which arbitrary and
incalculable executive orders may
create.
The success of the World Economic
Conference in handling the question of
trade barriers will depend less upon
the economic soundness of its recon-
mendations than upon the popularity.
prestige and political adroitness of its
members when they return to their re-
spective countries. 1t will not require
great economists to see the desirability
of reducing trade barriers, or TO devise
a plan for revision. It will require
superb political skill to get the plan

merely unloads it here for whatever IL
will bring, the loss to our producers, in
the diSrupting of their business, is
greater than any temporary gain to
our consumers. Here is a question call
ing for international cooperation Uni
form but stable international tariffs
may be the solution.
1t is difficult to separate trade re-
strictionS from international debts
When we we're lending to other coun-
tries we did not send them great
deal of actual money. We loaned them
credit with which to buy goods for
rehabilitation and other purposes
Some of those goods they bought here
Our producers got money for their
goods. but they got it from New York
and Washington and not from abroad.
That was good for our producers while
it lasted.
Now the process is reversed. When
our debtors begin paying back their
loans they must pay US largely in
goods: Even if they pay few INSTALL
ments in money they must manage to
get that money back again in order
to pay the later installments There
are only two ways of getting 1t back
again. One is to borrow it. The
other Is to sell us goods in exchange
for the money! Failing both. they
simply cannot continue to pay
The first method, that of borrowing
from us in order to pay back what
they had previously borrowed. was fol-
lowed for a while 1t obviously led
nowhere and was finally stopped 1t
is significant that it was stopped
shortly before the crash Of 1929. That
left only the other method, that of
sending us goods in exchange for the
money with which to pay us back.
That is. virtually, paying us in goods
rather than money. Our own producers
who prospered abnormally when we
were selling goods to our debtors who
paid for those goods with the money
which they had borrowed from our
money lenders, now found that the
shoe was on the other foot. When
our debtors began sending us goods in
order to get money with which to pay
us back, those goods began competing
with our own products. Our producers
then began demanding higher tariffs
to keep out those foreign goods. That
made it more difficult for our debtors
to pay us what they owed us, and so
things got into jam.
Debt Question Difficult.
Even from our point of view, without
complicating the problem with other
points Of view, the war debt question
Is difficult one. If We accept foreign
goods, as 1t seems we must II we are
to collect the money. it will affect the
market for our own products. If we do
not collect the debts our own tax

sented in the conference. Consequently
adroit politicians rather than econ
omists should be appointed as delegates.
1t Is much easier to prescribe for the
illness of Leviathan than to wheedle
him into taking the medicine.
One factor which will make it diff
cult for the conferees to get their
recommendations adopted is the ques-
tion of revenue. Tariff duties produce
revenue. Any source of revenue other
than direct taxes is sweet morsel
under the tongue of the taxpayer. Any
policy, however irrational ON other
grounds if it will only bring in revenue
in times like these, is almost certain to
be popular.
Fear of Dumping.
Then there is the fear of interna-
tional dumping. This is a real fear,
whether well grounded or not If 1t is
well grounded, it would help to justify
universal tariff policy. BY dumping is
meant the unloading Of a temporary
surplus on foreign market, selling it
for whatever 1t will bring If another
country having permanent advantage
in the production of given commod-
ity can permanently supply us with
that commodity in exchange for an
other one in whose production we have
permanent advantage it is a good
thing for both countries. We can get
more of the other country's product by
producing our own and exchanging it
for the other than we could by produc-
Ing the other for ourselves. But II the

nent advantage but finding itself with

~ ISARMAMENT raises questions
/ of great economic Importance,
but is not itself primarily an
- economic question. 1t prob
ably will be decided on nom
economic grounds rather than on
economic grounds Therefore,~1t is not
question for the World Economic
Conference. Balancing Of budgets is
an internal and not an international
question, and must be left to indlvid-
ual governments Besides, 1t is OF DIS
tinctly minor Importance as compared
with some others. This leaves three
problems of. major Importance 10 can
for international cooperation. 1hey
are. first, the stabilizing OF currencles
to the end that international prices and
international payments may be less Oh Oh
a gamble; second, the removal or
gradual reduction of trade barriers, and,
third, the revision of war debts.
All three of these questions hang TO-
gether. While gold was growing dearer
and prices lower, debts were becoming
a heavier burden When three OF the
leading countries repudiated tnelr
promises to pay gold, a panicky teeing
spread and the scramble for gold IN
creased. This still further enhanced
the purchasing power of gold and de-
pressed prices, and made the payment
of debts harder than ever. Again. the
attempt to pay international debts In
goods, ultimately the only way, caused
alarm among domestic producers and
called for higher tariff barriers and
trade restrictions. The belief that a
country which initiates its currency has
an advantage in international trade IS
likely to start international competition
in initiation as a means OF overcoming
trade barriers. The stabilizing of cur
rencies and the prevention of competl-
tive imitation were discussed in a
previous article. The next question is,
what can the World Economic Confer
ence do about the questions OF trade
barriers and war debts.
Situation Not Encouraging.
The present situation with respect to
tariffs and other trade barriers Is not
encouraging. Several countries, chief
among which is the United States, have
passed from an attitude of peace to an
attitude of war on the subject of the
tariff BY this is meant that tariff
manipulations which were once used as
means of conciliation and bargaining
are now used as threats or means OF
compulsion. There are two ways of get
ting what you want from the person
who has it. One is to offer him some
thing desirable in exchange for 1t. The
other Is to threaten him with something
undesirable II he does not give 1t to you
The one is the method Of honest trade
the other Is the method OF the high

PEIPING.-With japanese troops ex-
erting steady pressure westward into
Asia, attention here is centered on the
fate of the remaining regions of Mon
golia. where it is expected they must
inevitably penetrate.
Jehol itself, with $4,000 square miles,
constitutes the first japanese thrust
into Mongol country; while nominally
a part of Manchuria in recent years,
it is populated largely by Mongols and
for centuries had been an integral part
of their dominions.

The sum of all about this aspect Of
Mr.. Roosevelt, as seen by observers at
once very close and well equipped with
insight, is that Mr. Roosevelt knows
that America is very sick and must be
cured: that as a result of the national
sickness there is in America a large
quantity of misery and discomfort,
which expresses itself in the popular
majorities with which, for example,
Huey Long of Louisiana, is able to get
himself elected to the Senate; that this
discomfort is entitled, as a plain matter
of humanity, to sympathetic considera-

deferred to-; but that the best way to
cure this discomfort, the permanent OBJ
jective to be kept in mind, is to get
