For Accord
MOLEY IS SEEKING
TEMPORARY ACTION

CAMPOBELLO ISLAND, N. B.
July 1.-UP).-President Roose-
welt emphasized today that the
United States has declined to en-
ter into any formal currency sta
bilization agreement with the
world economic conference. altho
it is understood he has no objcc-
ton to action by the central
banks to restrict exchange fluc-
tuations.
LONDON. July 1. (UP).-The
United States, breaking an inn
passe on currency sterilization,
last night entered a tentative
agreement with Great Britain and
the gold bloc nations in Europe.
designed to eliminate ruinous ex-
change speculation and in effect.
temporarily stabilize money val
ues. The agreement was subject
to President Roosevelt's approval.
Under-Secretary of State Ray
mond Moley, the presidents
spokesman. approved the accord
for America, however. and Mr..
Roosevelt's agreement on the ar
rangement was regarded as GER
tain.
Representatives of the gold
bloc hurried to No. 10 Downing
Street ri, 10 p. m. expecting TO
sign /. agreement. However,
they adjourned at 1895 p. M,
lacking a reply from President
Roosevelt. They are to meet again
as soon as word from him is re-
ceived.
A spokesman for the British
told reporters that the delay in
getting a reply was entirely at
tributable to Mr.. Roosevelt's be-
ing out of touch with Washing

The United Press understood
the statement on speculation en-

3-To retain in view the agreed
object of the world economic con-
ference-ultimate general return

The United States delegation to
the economic conference had moth

The economic conference, mark

E, OF E.. COMMITTEE ACTS :
ON FIRST ADVERTISING PLAN
SUBMITTED BY MERCHANTS
Agrees One Proposition Has Merit Although Perhaps
Untimeiy, But Frowns On Another After SO
Or More Business Firms Have Invested

The advertising committee of
the Chamber of Commerce, meet
ing yesterday afternoon, indicat-
ed that it will be "hard boiled"
with reference to the increasing
number of advertising schemes
being promoted in the city when
it declined to recommend one
proposition to merchants, al
though agreeing that it had mer-
it, and definitely frowned on an
Other-after it was too late.
The meeting was held in COM
pliance with a petition addressed
by large number Of merchants
TO the Chamber of Commerce
asking that every protection pos
sible be given them against trans
lent advertising solicitors and
worthless schemes. Signers of
the petition agreed to refer soil
citors to the committee for its
judgment on the value of the
advertising project, but it de-
veloped yesterday that one prop
oSition--an amusement program
bearing the names of more than
fifty business houscs-had been
sold before the committee got
into action. The committee took
the view that the program had
little merit from an advertising
viewpoint, and said definitely
that it would have rejected the
plan if it had been referred to
the committee.
With reference to another prof.
cct in which the promoters pro-
jose to give away an automobile
End other prizes, the committee
fseIIded that while similar plans
have stimulated business in other
cities the committee could not
recommend it at this time large
ly because a merchants group
decided several days ago that the
contest would be more acceptable
and of greater value out Of the
tourist season. In the absence
of any retail merchants on the
committee and in view of its
consequent inability to pass on
the merits of this and other SIM
liar propositions, the cost being
taken into consideration, J. l..
Rarden, chairman, appointed F..
w. Ham and Sam Kalin, retail
merchants, to the committee.
Recommendation was made to the
promoters that if and when they
sell the plan that checks Of mer-
chants be made payable to the
Chamber of Commerce to guaran-
tee payment for the prizes be"
fore the contest is put on.
TIL committee said it had been
informed that new advertising
schemes are appearing at the
rate of about one day and ex-
pressed the view that if mer-
chants do not stop the promiscu-
Gus buying OF advertising space,
they will spend thousands of dol
lars this year with little benefit.

PAYMENT
Of TAXES D. K.
IN ARLINGTON
County Treasurer Inaugurates
New System Expected
To Solve Problem

Part payment Of taxes in Ar,
lington county, Va, will be per-
mitted by Charles T. Jesse, treas
urer, he announced today.
Persons desiring to pay their
taxes on the installment plan will
receive an unofficial receipt when
each payment is made. Upon pay
ment of tax bill in full the official
receipt will be rendered.
Step Toward Reform
Jesse's action is the first def
mite step toward tax reform in
Arlington county in some years as
regards payments. Some time
ago a group in the Arlington Civic
Federation recommended adoption
of a plan similar to that put into
effect by Jesse as means OF saw
ing the county money and at the
same time provide relief for tax
payers.
E1CECUO1OIS GdA pay AACA~o oS
practiced in Arlington county
have proved burdensome because
of the lumb sum ruling. Many
have been forced to delay pay
ments because they did not have
enough to pay in full where they
might have made part payment.
Advantages Cited
AS result the county has been
forced several times to borrow
money from banks in order to
operate. Under the new plan it
is believed citizens will make
their payments either monthly or
semi-annually. This would pro-
vide constant supply rof cash.
Jesse's ruling also is taken as
a means of eliminating the neces-
sity for tax sales for it is believed
that residents will pay part Of
their tax from time to time and
thus prevent the accumulation Of
heavy tax liens against their
properties.

 What steps will be taken to rem edy the situation remains to be announced but it is known that Secretary of Interior Ickes is inn patient, particularly because he re- gards the situation largely outside of his control.
 These interferences are generally classed as political efforts to secure more funds, dilatory tactics by re- cipients of the funds in letting contracts, attempts of contractors to avoid bonding and attempts of contractors to eliminate competitive bidding

 This was brought out by H. c Pierce, of New York, at a con vention of the international baby chick association which met here to discuss a code of fair practice under the Agricultural Administra- tion.
 Egyptian history shows that the modern hatchery business really began about 1879, Pierce said. The Egyptian hatcherymen, however did not have incubators and all the other modern equipment known to- day. They used warm stones to incubate eggs artificially.
