MONEY EXPERT
URGES CAUTION
ON INITIATION
BradStreet'S Weekly Editor
Says Adjustment of
Debts Best Way.
BY OTIS PEABODY SWIFT
United Press Stan Correspondent

Copyright 1888 by United Press
NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-"Inflat ton
is not merely desirable, it is neceS-
sary," Joseph Stage Lawrence, ed
itor of Bradstreets weekly, Finan-
cial Journal, and former member of
the faculty of Princeton university,
told the United Press.
Then, urging caution in the meth
DDS of initiation, he emphasizes that
any discussion of the subject was
uintelligible unless the term was
defined.
During the last two years the
government has sought in every
manner permitted under existing
statutes to force a rise in commod-
ity prices and a reduction in the
exchange value of the dollar" the
economist declared.
Imitation as a policy of the gov
eminent no longer is a theory. 1t is
a determined, unqualified intention
of the government.
Need Rise in Prices
Money rates have been reduced
to unprecedented levels. The fed
eraI reserve banks have loaded their
portfolios with government secur-
tiles. Loans have been made to pre-
vent the defation of bank deposits,
bank investments, railroad Secur-
tiles and real estate. All these are
inf1ationary moves
1t is because these forms Of in
f1ation have failed" he said, that
legislators today are turning toward
such radical proposals as the re-
monetization of silver, devaluation
Of the gold dollar and fiat money. -
Further inflationary measures are
necessary, he added.
mo man in his reasonable senses
can question the present value of
rise in commodity prices" he said.
Enhance Value Of Dollar
1.-THE only alternative is a further
adjustment of all debts and all
prices to the new and greatly en-
HANGED value Of the dollar
This means a revision of private
debts, including loans by banks, a
severe retrenchment in government
costs, and the further reduction of
prices still out of line, such as util-
ity rates, freight charges and GER
tain wage classifications, notably
printers, anthracite miners and
strongly unionized rail employees.
The great problem Of today is
not the desirability of imitation, but
the least mischieyous method of
achieving it.
Objection to RECOMMENDATION
'It is by no means certain that
the issue of fiat currency would ac-
complish the object. The remone-
tization of silver probably would
raise prices, and reduce the burden
of debt for the time being. The
reduction of the gold content of the
dollar might accomplish the same
purpose. There are serious objec-
tions to both courses.
1T is matter in which prudent
conservatives will cooperate with
radicals lest the latter acquire
strength which will enable them to
dictate the manner of imitation"

Confronted with a letter
from Chicago police giving de-
tails of a meeting Of alleged
Communists in that city on
Dec. 80, Raymond revealed
the entire plot against the
auto industry, according to
the sheriff.
Raymonds admissions. Wilcox re-
ported, were that he and Max Salz-
man and A. Brown, Negro, met at
Communist headquarters in Chicago
Dec. 30 and planned to create strikes
among auto workers.
The drive to halt production was
to center at Detroit. Raymond then
returned here and started organ
izing workers at the Briggs plants.
Information from the Chicago pO-
lice, with which Wilcox said he con-
fronted Raymond to secure his adj
missions, alleged that at the meet
ing there Salzman, reported to be a
district organizer for the Commu-
nists, said he had formed fourteen
shop committees in various Detroit
auto plants and several at the
Ford plants in Dearborn.
Brands Claims Exaggerated
Raymond said this was exaggerat-
ed, Wilcox stated and that he was
unable to find several of the locals
Salzman claimed Brown, who was
employed at the time at the Murray
Body Corporation of America here,
also branded Salzman's claims as
exaggerated.
Fifteen per cent of the strikers
picketing the Briggs plant at pres
ent are Communists, Wilcox said
Raymond admitted to him.
Raymond said that he returned
from Russia last year and that
work was started Immediately to
foment strikes in various industries
in this country, the sheriff asserted.
The auto workers union, which
has been the active group in the
present strike, is an offspring of the
Trades Union Unity League, which
is in turn a branch of the Trade
Internationale of Moscow, according
to the reported statements of Ray
mond.
Strike Leader Denies Charges
A man giving the name of George
Altskasco, "a, was arrested at the
picket lines today. Communist
membership cards were found on
his person, and officers said he was
urging pickets to join the organiza-
ton
Two others were arrested on the
general charge of agitating and in
citing to riot.
Irving Aronson, member of the
strikers joint committee and spokes-
man for the striking group, en-
phatically denied the statement re-
ported made by Raymond.
If there are any Communists in
our union, said Aronson, they have
come in unknown to us. We hired
Raymond to work as an organizer
for us, but it was distinctly under
stood he was not to talk Commun-
ism. We don't allow any know Com
munists to be members"

Archduke Otto Rallies
 To DoHfuss' Support
Gives Present Austrian Chancellor Influential Aid
 Also Paves Way for Return of Monarchial Govt

"As to the views of the emperor regarding the danger now menace ing Austria, they are that he holds the maintenance of the country's independence essential. His views are in accord with those of the Austrian government.
 "Following out the ideas of his majesty, the Austrian legitimist (monarchist) movement supports with all its force the cabinet of Chancellor Dollfuss." ..rs .-.t
 Otto's declaration came imme- diately after his telegram of sym pathy to Dollfuss upon the occa- sion of the attempt to assassinate him. It coincided also with tho rallylng of large numbers of Aus trian monarchists to Dollfuss's support.
 Austrian Nazis. borrowing an idea from the Reichstag ineendiary trial, charged to-day that the at tempt to assassnate Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss was conceived by his own allies.
 Speakers at Q Nazi mass meeting last night said Rudolf Bertil, who shot Dollfuss twice, was influenced ther. The stepfather, speakers said, was not q Nazi, as charged. but a former member of Dollfuss's Christian Socialist party and later a member of the Heimwehr which the chancellor.
 Defendants at tho Reichstag trial have charged that German Nazis burned the building in order to discredit communism.

 FORT CRAWFORD
Rock Garden Enthusiasts Blamed for Gradual
 Disappearance

Prairie Du Chen, Wis, (UP)- Rock garden enthusiasts are blamed here for the gradual disappearance of historic Fort Crawford, scene of many battles between Indians and white men in pioneer days.
 Residents here believe the popu- larity of the rock garden in re- cent years has done more to rage the remains of the old fort than anything else. Tourists view the historic stones, and decide that q stone from the old fort would make a wonderful addition to the rock garden at home. So the old walls are reduced by one more stone.
 Apart from its military history. the walls still standing are of in terest to students of medicine, for 1t was inside the medical building that Dr William Beaumont per formed many of his experiments on Martin street.

 Member on Presidents Agreement

ly important point and one which many people had forgotten, for whether the employer has signed the presidents re-employment agreement or an approved modi- fication of it, he has voluntarily agreed to purchase his supplies from those who are under the Blue Eagle.
 In this same conference MT Creighton cited the example of a large concern here in New England which issued to every empfoye a copy of the agreement which that concern had signed, so that each employe had a complete under standing of what that concern has agreed to do. He went on to sug- gest that he felt that it would be very worthwhile for each employer to re-read the agreement which he has signed and to post this agree ment, or a copy of it, on the bull letin board so that his employees might also know the conditions under which he has agreed to op- crate his business.
 There have been so many ofii- cially approved modification of the presidents unemployment agree ment," MT Creighton said-"More than four hundred at the present time"-that there have been many misunderstanding as to just what modification a particular concern is working under. This Is especially true of the workers. for most of the notifications approved by Gen. eral Johnson have dealt with wages and hours and feel that if the individual employer acquaints the workers with the actual re- quirements of his agreement with the president-whether by posting a copy of it on a bulletin board. or by distributing copy to workers that many of the present diffi- culties between employer and enl- ploye will be avoided. The New Hampshire State Recovery Board has already suggested this idea to the employers of the state. and 1t is working out in most satisfac- tory way fhere

Bf ROBERT H. BEST United Press Stan Correspondent) Vienna, Oct G. (U.P.) - Twenty ycar-old Archduke Otto Hapsburg, heir of the discontinued Austrian throne, to-day aligned himself and all Austrian monarchists behind Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss.
 Otto's declaration of support was made to the United Press through pr r. R. Won Wiesrer, of the. .entourage assigned, him during his exile.
 Its importance was twofold -- somo Of Austria's most influential men to tho little chancellor In his fight against Nazisim; secondly that 1t brings materially nearer the possibility of Otto becoming a con. stitutional monarch. over Austria.
 Tho statement, forwarded from Brussels where Otto, now visiting Chatcaus in Golgium and France, makes his headquarters, first men, tioned Otto's recent declaration when he was made an honorary citizen of three Austrian towns. This declaration was interpreted as q bid for tho throne.
 "These declarations" said the statement, repeat with more em- phasis the point of view expressed by the emperor in all his letters to tho communes that have made him q citizen of honor-more than 40 in all.
 "These reiterated declarations mako plain tho inalienable rights of the heir of the Emperor Charles (Otto's father, forced to abdicate after tho World War) to the crown of Austria.
