NEW YORK, February 1s.- The

Brokers said distress selling had prac-

in bonds also helped sentiment in
shares.

LUMP SUM DEBT
PLAN URGED

A lump sum settlement of the
European debts owed to the
United States Government was
counseled today by Fred R. Fair
child, professor of economics at
Yale University, as "step toward
world prosperity" He said:
"These government obligations
are a disturbing factor in
world commerce."
Other remedies he proposed in
cluded drastic reduction of gov
ernment expenditures, particularly
in the billion dollar annual total
to veterans; and removal and re-
vision of tariffs and trade bar
riers.
"The business world is greatly
disturbed by proposals to tamper
with the currency"
All currency initiation proposals
he described as vicious" A. D.
Noyes, a New York financial
writer, declared that former de-
preSSionS in the United States
were ended, not through economic
experiments or tampering with
the gold standard, but by adher-
ing to policy of sound money.

Co slow SAYS,
SIR MALCOLM

Sir Malcolm Campbell, who
last week set a new automobile
speed record of better than 272
miles an hour at Daytona Beach,
Fla, "never takes a chance on
the roads"
During a brief visit at the
American Automobile Association
headquarters in Washington to-
day, Sir Malcolm said:
"ParadOxical as it may seem,
coming from me, I am a con-
sistent advocate of safety on
the highways. 1 preach and
practice careful driving.
"The school boy patrol SyS-
tenn which you have working
so admirably in your country
is the finest thing I ever heard
of and when 1 get back home
I'm going to try to persuade
authorities there to adopt a
similar plan."
The man who has driven au-
tomobiles faster than any other
human deplores the attendant
publicity. He said today that he
has been racing automobiles
since 1906, when he won his first
gold medal. He said:
"There really is no limit to
the speed that may be at
tained. 1 fell short of my 300
mile an hour objective last
week through no fault of man
or machine. The beach condi-
tiOnS were not right because of
the heavy pOundings which
winter storms have given the
shOreline."
