CONFIDENCE IN

Government Seeks to Re.
 establish Long Term Market, Easing Credit

 Washington, Sept 20-(U.P.) = of the long term investment market was studied by government officials to-day as the next credit-easing move to spur business.
 Treasury and federal reserve of- hcials have held extended confer ences on means to instill confid: ence in Investors 50 that they Will buy securities and help finance bus mess over the present critical per- iod.
 Most credit easing moves up to now have been to open banks and place billions of dollars of new credit in them to be extended to business. Most banks have insisted on short term loans. Little atten- ton has been pail to long-term loans essential in the financing or large enterprises.
 Many millions of dollars in rail- road, utility and corporation bonds currently are coming due, and many strong companies have en- countered difficulty in finding in- vestors to buy their bonds so that maturing obligations may be. met.
 Some bond dealers complain that the new securities act has choked the new capital market but most observers contend that the princi- pal deterrent to investment buying is fear of currency imitation.
 As evidence that the securities act has not interfered greatly. 1t is pointed out that the market for municipal and railroad bonds. gen. erally exempt from the act, !. has been demoraliZed.
 As an initial step to open up the long term financing market. the government within the next few weeks\ is expected to make a de- finite pronouncement on monetary policy. intended to assure prospec- tive inevtsors that the money with which they purchase bonds would have relatively the same purchas- ing power when they are paid off 5, 10, or 20 years hence.

 The situation. especially serious became much of the .quipment IS imported, largely is due to the desire of Soviet industrial enter prises to order as much machinery as possible as far ahead as possible.
 Fearful that appropriations for equipment may be limited, direc' tors of these enterprises push through orders for things they may need in the distant future.
 The unnecessarily early ordering of machinery is made that much worse by the failure to care for the unused goods properly. The inves- tisation showed that these millions of rubles in equipment were in most cases unprotected. dirty and weather-worn,

AMERICAN NAVAL BUILDING PLANS TO
 EXTEND 2S YEARS
Program to Be Given Con-
 gress-WOuld Use Nine Millions Annually
BY RONALD c. vANTTNE

Aboard U. s. s. Henderson nt Sea, Sept 29.-(UP)--A huge building program designed to main- tain treaty strength off the United States navy for Q period of 2S years will be submitted to congress by tho navy department in Janu- ary, the United Press learned to- day.
 The program will be based on the assumption of the navy depart ment that London treaty provisions may not be renewed by world pow CTS after 1938.
 The average annual expenditure until 1862 under the projected building plan was estimated at $0,. g16,000.
 The navy would be built to treaty strength by 1889 though construc- ton of large number of vessels during that six-year period.
 Thereafter, the project involves replacements in obsolete equipment and average ships looking toward maintenance of tho navy at the treaty limit.
 The plane calls for construction of 375 ships, to include 20 battlc- ships, eight airplane carriers. 22 heavy cruisers, 25 light cruisers, POI destroyers and % submarines. The first ships would not bo built until 1885.
