Finding 1t Hard To Fool
American Delegates At London Farley

The World Monetary and Eco,
nomic Congress-, now in session il
London, represents sixty-six out Of
the seventy organized nations OF
the globe. Fifty-&ven of them
are members of the League of Ma
tons, namely:
Abyssinia, South Africa, AL
bania, Argentina, Australia, Aus
tria, Belgium, Bolivia, Bulgaria:
Canada, Chile, Colombia, Cuba,
Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Domin-
lean Republic, Estonia, Finland.
France, Germany, Greece, Guate-
mala, Haiti, Honduras, Hungary,
india, Iraq, Irish Free State, Italy,
Japan, Latvia, Liberia, Lithuania,
Luxembourg, Mexico, Netherlands,
New Zealand, Nicaragua, Norway,
Panama, Paraguay, Persia, Peru,
Poland, Portugal, Rumania, Sal
vador, Sian, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland, Turkey, United King
dom, Uruguay, Venezuela and
! Yugoslavia.
The nine nations in the confer
ence not members of the League are
Afghaniatan, Brazil, Cbsta RIGA,
Ecuador, Egypt, Hedjaz, Iceland,
the United States of American and
the Union of Socialist Soviet Re-
publics-in VI language, Russia.
The main purposes of this great
international convention are, first
to try to find some way by inter-
national action to raise the prices
of commodities in foreign trade;
second, to remove or modify the
barriers which stand in the way of
the free flow of goods from one
nation to another; third, to arrive
at some common basis of money SO
that there will no longer be great
>disparities between the values of
the c%urrencies of different nations.
On those general proposals all
of the important nations except
France, and practically all of the
minor nations are in agreement. If
France can be whipped into line it
should be easy to work out the de-
tails.
France, as is always the case in
international conferences, is the
bad boy" of the London meeting.
France always goes into such con-
ferences with a complete program
all in Frances favor-and pro-
tests loudly that she won't play
unless she has her own way. She
usually winds up by accepting the
majority verdict and then going
home and lamenting loudly that

she has been robbed.

she has been robbed.
France started those tactics at
the beginning of this conference,
insisting that the moneys of the
world be Immediately stabilized at
their present ratios. That did not
suit the English, who would like
to keep the dollar much higher to
the pound than it is now, MOI the
Americans, who think the pound
ought to get back to its old dollar
value or higher. But the French
delegation circulated the report
that an agreement had been reach
ed and dollar prices began to tum-
bic. France wants, in short, to
keep the franc just where it is. and
if the pound goes much higher the
French will have to go off the gold
standard, like the rest of the world.
On the other hand, the japanese
are opposing sterilization because
they want to keep the yen cheap.
Every nation has sent its ablest
men to the London conference.
There are seven prime ministers a.
mong the delegates. There is no
ground, however, to fear that the
American delegation will be out
smarted. There are few ADLER men
in America than Secretary of State
Cordell Hull, former Governor
James M. Cox, Senator Key Pitt
man, Senator Couzens, Representa-
tive McReynolds, James M. War
burg and their economic advisers,
who include such men as Professor
o. M. w. Sprague and Rene Leon.
They know just what America
wants and they are not easily fool
ed by even such high politics as

series of games directed by Mrs.
Patterson, Mrs. Houck, Miss eau

room where ice cream, cake and
candy were served, much to the
delight of the little folks. Those

COTTON STEADY

NEW YORK, Jan. II GN.SJ.
The cotton market maintained a
steady tone today. The liquida-
ton which had depressed the mar
ket yesterday appeared to have
run its course.
Trade price fixing furnished a
good deal of support. Buying was
also noted by Liverpool and the
continent. Wall Street and pro-
fessionals were reported buying,
principally in october and De-
cember.
Pressure came largely from the
South and New Orleans, the lat
ter in the near months. Some
selling Of distant months by spot
firms and commission houses was
reported.
The weather map showed gen.
orally fair and cooler weather in
the Eastern Cotton Belt, partly
cloudy with a few light showers
in the Central Belt and cloudy in
the West, with light rains in east
ern and southern Texas.
Near midday, price gains ranged
from to 2 points, with March

Continuous Instalments
Insurance Is Praised

be paid to the insured every year
as long as the policy is in force.
This contract can be written
under the ordinary life form, or
under the limited payment plan
whereby 1t is paid up in 10,
IS or 20 years. It can also be
written in such a manner that
after the inSured's death, month
ly payments cannot be sold or
assigned; cannot be attached for
debt, and are not subject to
State, Federal or income taxes.
Cost Varies With Age
The yearly cost of the contract
is based on the ages of both
the insured and his wife at the
time the policy is issued. A
medical examination, however, is
required for the insured only.
AS these rates vary according to
age, it is the writer's suggestion,
if you are interested in such a
policy and wish figures applicable
to yourself; that you get in touch
with any old-line legal reserve
life insurance company.
To assure your wife and fam
lily a guaranteed income after
your death, it is advisable to
arrange your life insurance so
that payments viii be made to
her monthly, rather than in one
lump sum. To leave large
sum of money to a woman who
has had little experience, if any,
in handling money is giving her
a difficult task. The principal
is apt to be squandered, or more
likely lost through unfortunate
investments.
The Washington times., 1933-01-17
BY FRANK r. LOOMS

One of the safest and surest life
insurance policies, guaranteeing
absolute protection for wife and
family, is the old so-called continu-
Gus installment contract, which is
still written by practically all the
old line legal reserve life insur-
ance companies, although in many
Instances a new name has been
applied to the contract.
This type Of policy provides that
at the death of the insured $10O
or 5000 a month. as may be Sc
lected. may be paid to the wife,
or beneficiary, each and every
month for as long as she may live.
In case she should not survive him
for at least 20 years, the monthly
payments would continue for tae
remaining period to whom ever
may be designated.
How 1t Works Out
AS an example, if the insured's
wife should die five years after her
husbands death, the monthly pay
ments she had been receiving
would be continued for is years
longer to her children or any other
named beneficiary: but in any
event the payments of $1O0 or
5000 a month. as selected, would
be paid to the wife for as long as
she may hye, no matter how long.
The policy carries cash and loan
values and other valuable features
which the insured can take >ad-
vantage Of if necessary. It also
participates in the dividend earn
ings of the company, which will

CLOTH MARKET

NEW YORK, Jan. II QN.s.).-Al-
though trading in the coarse yarn
cloths market today was light, prices
were firm, as buyers found who had
occasion to check the market or sought
to find sources of supply disposed to
make concessions.
There was comparatively little busi-
ness available to test the mettle of
sellers. Little was seen of second hand
goods. though 1t was understood that
Isolated larger quantities were at hand
and on which 1t could not definitely be
determined whether lower than first
hand prices could be negotiated.
