PARLEY WOES
ON GREED
Foreign Nations Demand All
the Advantages, Speaker
of House Declares

The selfishness Of foreign ma
tions that demand that the
United States continue to give
them trade advantages is the rea.
cause Of the difficulties at the
London economic conference
Speaker Henry T. Rainey, of the
House, said today.
Declaring the entire country is
backing President Roosevelt in his
firm stand on currency matters
Rainey asserted the United States
can stand failure of the confer
ence.
Can Survive Failure
Unless the conference points
the way to restoration Of world
trade, he said, the United States
inevitably will continue its high
tariff policy under the Democratic
administration. He said:
eve can stand the complete
failure Of the world economic
conference but other nations
cannot.
"TheSe nations want us to
keep up the gold standard, let
them produce on cheap cur
rency basis, and sell to us for
gold. When we commence to
produce off the gold standard
they complain.
"The conference was called to
stimulate international trade,
but these nations don't want
to reduce their tariff walls.
They want to get us in a posi-
ton where we will uphold the
gold standard at our expense.
So long as we were lOaning
them money and they were
producing on a cheap currency
basis and selling us for gold
they were satisfied"
The Presidents blunt message,
Ra1ney said, may shock Europe
into action to restore interna-
tional trade. He said:
You cannot get them to do
anything unless you do shock
them"
U. s. Self Contained
The United States, he said, is
an economic unit in itself and
can live within itself. He added:
"UnleSs we can restore inter-
national trade we can go ahead,
let our tariff walls stand, cur
tail our manufacturers and
farm production, and live for
ourselves.
"The encouraging feature of
the situation is the revival of
trade with Russia. Russia
needs everything we can pro-
duce. The two countries are
the wealthieSt in the world in
natural resources"
Although Rainey is professedly
an internationalist and has fought
for years to lower tariff barriers.
he declared that the United
States cannot do it alone.

States are preparing to adopt
local legislation harmonizing
their laws with requirements Of
the National Recovery Act, Gen.
Hugh s. johnson, administrator,
announced today.
Bills are pending in California
and Ohio legislatures and one
has passed the Wisconsin
assembly. Questions from other
State officials regarding the
form Of such legislation are COM

Adoption of uniform recovery
measures in each State will
facilitate the work Johnson Is
supervising among the basic in
duStries, he indicated. Texas
was cited recently by one Of his
aides as having such drastic anti
trust laws that any organizations
rracticing what the National Re
covery law permits them to do
would be liable to prosecution.
Codifying of all basic indus
tries essential to national recov-
cry will be speeded.

Pressing domestic problems con-
fronted him as he resumed work.
He had hoped to shelve tenn
porarily the bugaboo of foreign
complexities. He planned to take
over the helm of his national re-
coVery program in earnest.
The two most pressing domestic
matters before the President dealt
with the projects to be begun first

gram. The heads of the two
major committees of the recovery

Wheat Nations Agree
To Limit Production

GEOLOGICAL MUSEUM, LON
DON, July 5 N.SD.-Represent-
atives Of the worlds wheat pro-
ducing nations today drafted an
agreement based on American pro-
posals for coordinated marketing
and restricted production Of
wheat.
In accordance with the request
Of the Australian wheat represen.
tative, the draft will be submitted
to leading wheat importing coun-
tries for approval and cooperation
Of these governments.
To CurtaiI Production
The four principal wheat pro-
ducing countries (Argentina, Can
ada, Australia and the United
States) reached an agreement in
principle for "curtailment of pro-
duction in accordance with the
world demand" according to an
official communique.
The agreement, it added, will
be submitted to European import
ing and exporting nations for CO.
operation. The agreement, it was
stated, contains no fixed figures
on curtailment of wheat acreage
or exports, which is said to de-
pend on the attitude Of the i'm
porting nations.
At the suggestion Of Henry
Morgenthau, ST., OF the United
States, the wheat representatives
appointed a committee. composed
of American, Australian, and Ar
gentinian delegates to confer i'm
mediately with representatives of
the Danubian States, Poland and
Russia regarding restriction Of
production.
Figures to Be Omitted

ber Of the committee, said later:
"The Americans and the Cana
dians supported the Argentine

cause Of uncertainty Of the

Canada told us Canadian crop
estimates for 1888 are now

amount to q large decrease

ON PHONE,
CONFERS WITH
ROOSEVELT
Transatlantic Talk Conveys
"NeWs" About Which PreSi-
dent Remains Silent
by International News Service

ny lnUeFnhJIOHAA MOVIE SoENACS
President Roosevelt received lat
est reports Of the turn Of events
at the World Economic Confer
ence direct from Secretary Of
State Hull by transatlantic tele-
phone today.
The President continued ada
mant in his decision not to dis
close the contents of any Of the
messages or instructions that have
gone forward from this side Of the
Atlantic, however. Any news Of
these, he said, must come out Of
London.
Generally speaking, the Admin
istration is sitting tight" in
the foreign situation and it was
made clear that Mr.. Roosevelt
has no idea of yielding on his
earlier stand that this nation will
not accept any currency Stabiliza-
ton proposals coming out Of the
conference at this time.
Cautious on Gold
1-ot the least Of the many
objections which the Executive
would have to this country join
ing such an agreement was the
fact that he would consider this
nation morally bound to let
down the bars on gold eXporta-
ton if this were asked under q
Stabilization agreement. This
Mr.. Roosevelt is not at this time
ready to do.
He considers a redistribution Of
the gold of the world a fair mat
ter for discussion after monetary
foundations have settled to a
sound basis.
Mr.. Roosevelt hopes each
country will be able to work out
internally a stable currency. He
feels that when this has been
accomplished the various cur
rencies of the world will become
Of themselves more or less stable
in terms Of other currencies.
The President does not feel
that Great Britain is any more
ready for a general Stabilizing
agreement than this country Is.
Currency Backing
It was pointed out at today's
press conference with the Presi.
dent that the European and
American viewpoints on gold are
in conflict. It was said the
European view is that gold in
itself should be used as a means
Of international exchange but
should not be placed as collateral
behind paper currencies.
The American viewpoint is
that gold should be back of the
currency. The President holds
that gold should be kept here
by the Government as a perma-
nent collateral to back the ma
tion'S currency.
