PRODICAL SON
 OF NATION IS
 COMING HOME
Sees Light in Window, Left Burning Three Years,
 Waves Greeting
RECOVERY HAS NEW
 SUIT OF CLOTHES, TOO
Casts Smiles on North and South Alike-To Make
 Tour Through Country

WASHINGTON, June 27. The recovery of the prod igal for whom the Nation has kept a light burning in the window for three years appeared out of the gloom and waved a greeting.
 The prodigal wore a new suit cut with bold shears by President R oose evelt and stitched hurriedly by Con- gress.
 The prodigal has the Ma tional Recovery Act in his pocket and there were also identification card s of $1 wheat, ten cent cotton ant other encouraging trade re- ports.
 He advanced none too briskly, for he was not sturdy after his long absence, to the music of danc- ing stock tickers.
 Smiles on North, South
 Recovery smiled impartially on the North and. South alike as wheat and cotton climbed out of the scorching sun which has al- ready done great damage to grain in some sections and wilted to some extent agrarian optimism.
 In the National Capital, there was gathered in Recoverys honor for encouragement, textile repre- sentatives with Hugh Johnson.
 The meeting is expected to write the major American history for textile operators. A code has been prepared for fair competition. More than two-thirds of the industry have approved the code with mini mum wage provisions of $10 for a 40-hour week.
 The purpose oS. the meeting is to provide a vehicle in which Re- covery can start a long awaited ride across the country on an in- dustrial reconnaissance program which has called for the most ann bilious emergency measures ever undertaken by the Government.
 This program aims at a revival of industry through higher wages and wider distribution of work, higher prices for products and elim- ination of unfair competition.
 Administrator Johnson is con- centrating on the textile operators code so it may serve as a chart to other industial groups which are setting up similar codes by which they hope to get smoke pouring out of factory industrial stacks as it used to be.
 WASHINGTON, June 27.-PreSi- dent William Green of the Ameri- can Federation of Labor said he opposes the 40-hour week schedule and minimum wages provided in the textile code under the National Recovery Act.

STERILIZATION PLANS PROPOSED
 ON BROAD FRONT
Dramatic Develo p m ent Takes Place at Econ
 omic Conference
SECRET SESSION
 HELD BY BANKERS
Gold to Be Defended to Last Solution Rests
 with British

LONDON, June 27. = The World Economic Conference is in the thrOes of a fresh dramatic development pre- cipitated by the unexpected action of the gold bloc cOun- tries trying to force Euro pean monetary stabilization irrespective of the desires of the Americans or what hap pens to the American dollar.
 Representatives of central banks of France, Switzerland, Holland and Belgium met se- cretly to perfect plans which involve forcing Great Britain to stabilize along with the continental countries.
 TO DEFEND GOLD
 From this meeting came the de- claration by one of the conferees that gold will be defended to the last ditch.
 On the other hand there is q renewed threat and chaos of price debacles which will follow if the American and Canadian wheat sur plus is dumped on the world mar ket. This acted to save from a breakdown of the wheat acreage restriction negotiations of the four principal wheat producing nations.
 The arrival of Prof. Richard Moley, who last week held an im- portant conference and received in- structions from President Roosevelt is due to arrive today and this is causing the delegates to the World Economic Conference to wonde er what other excitement will be thrown among the delegates.
 Speed Is Shown
 The momentum of the barley is picking up to such speed that 1t is believed anything might happen.
 Many observers expressed the opinion the gold bloc scheme i'll effect challenges President Roose- velt's price raising program which the gold bloc members maintain will force depreciation of their cur rencies and be disastrous.
 Bankers, in their secret session, decided to. ask the Bank of Eng land to make a declaration to the effect that it will not be to Great Britain's interest to see continental currencies depreciated.
 British Sit Tight
 Meanwhile the British are sitting tight regarding any attitude but it is learned that a representative of the Bank of England is con- ferring with the President of the Bank of International Settlements. The situation has simmered down to this-success or failure of the gold bloc program depends on Great Britain's decision and England is not ready to return to the gold standard yet. She,- in effect, will be doing this if she agrees to the gold bloc stabilization scheme. On the other hand she will suffer trade losses were France and other countries forced off the gold stan dard with a resultant depreciation of currencies in relation to the pound.
 informed circles close to the American delegation expressed the opinion the gold bloc scheme is futile and devaluation of sew eral European monies is decidedly in prospect.
 DODGES ISSUE
 LONDON, June 27.-Great Bri- tain is understood to have refused to commit herself to the new gold bloc scheme under which Great Britain and continental currencies are to be stabilized irrespective of the desires of the United States, ss she wants to keep her hands free to deal directly with the Unit ed States when the proper time comes.

Basketball Problems
BY NAT HOLMAN
Star Player, Coach and Author Of
"Winning Basketball"

Question-Is II generally wise to
follow the sidelines In cutting for the
basket?
Answer-No. Eluding an opponent
is best accomplished by starting down
the sideline and then suddenly
breaking across the court and down
through the center; the change in
direction or the maneuvering among
other players viii aid greatly in leav-
ing him behind.
Carelessly running along the side
lines and continuing on underneath
the basket without varying ones
course, will seldom get the desired
results.
