ROOSEVELT TO BACK
CITY INSOLVENCY LAW
Informs Leaders He Will Go Along
on Bill to Relax Municipal
Bankruptcy Rule.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt has informed
congressional leaders he will go along
on a bill to relax the bankruptcy laws
to permit adjustments by municipal
ties of their debts.
The legislation which he has in mind
would allow cities to enforce adjust
ments with debtors upon the agree
ment of perhaps rs or 80 per cent OF
the debtors.
So far as direct Federal aid to
municipalities is concerned, Mr.. Roose-
velt has pointed out to advocates of this
that it perhaps would involve the Gov
ernment in the end up to $4,000, ,000,- :
900. So this has been ruled out.
Legislation has been pushed along
on Capitol Hill providing for adjust
ment of debts by municipalities and
with favorable word from the White
House drive Is in prospect to push
it to conclusion at this session.

ent at the copper plant, telephoneo
police and said he wanted the crowd
cleared from the property.

the speakers stand and asked George

he had not a permit, but intended to
finish his speech whether the police
liked it or not. Murray then started to
knock down the rostrum, and an un-
identified man in the audience swung
a length of iron pipe, hitting the neu-
tenant on the shoulder.

airy were 40.9 per cent of the 1926.
the 1926 average. On the other
hand, building materials in Febru-
AIRY already were 698 per cent of
1926. and metals and metal products
were TIA per cent.
BY June building material had
risen 7 per cent and the metals 2.5
per cent.
Nov it must be clear that the
gain 10 the farmer of 30 per cent
is not really 80 per cent ii the
things he has to buy also rise in
price.
1t is only as you close the gap
between what he received and what
he buys that you are really laying
haSis for recovery"
Therefore, as manufactures rise.
you have to raise farm prices by
that much more 10 obtain any
result.
TINE same holds in regard TO the
Il efforts being made 20 raise in-
dustrial and commercial wages. The
increase of the dollars in the pay
envelope is a real gain in purchasing
power only in so far as the cost of
living lags behind the increase.
If this principle is not clearly
recognized there is a distinct pos
sibility that the wohle program will
become a mere multiplication OF
dollar prices.
If. for example. YOU raise the price
of raw materials. then raise the
prices of manufactured goods in
proportion. raise wages TO offset the
price increase, raise prices TO offset
the wage increase. you are likely
to end by having TO raise raw ma
terials still more.
And thus you can easily find
yourself in a vicious spiral. 1 do
not say this is happening. But 1
do say that it very easily can hap
pen. and there are not few signs
that it has begun TO happen.
THAT is why it is so vitality i'm
Il portant that the NRA should
show as great an interest in re-
straining the increase of some
prices as it does in raising wages or
farm prices. If it fails TO do that,
it is likely to produce senseless
imitation.
Thus, for example, 1t is just as
important to be concerned about
the artificially high price of steel
as it is to be concerned about the
unreasonably low price Of textile
labor.
The disparity Of prices is the
thing to be concerned about now.
In well-conceived campaign of
recovery, it is necessary 20 be just
as resolute about preventing some
kinds of prices from rising, and
perhaps even about lowering some
prices. as it is about raising other
kinds, of prices.
Therefore. it would be most re-
assuring if the NRA, say III dealing
with the steel code. which governs
truly basic industry, would DEM
onstrate its understanding of this
aspect Of the general problem.
