 ROME, June 7.-Reestablization of the lira on lower basis appears the chief hope of Italian business men and bankers for the world economic conference in London. i International economic problems, tariffs, gold standards-none of these has as much direct interest to them as the rehabilitation.
 By some the conference is re- garded as giving Mussolini an op- portunity of lowering the lira's stabilization point, something that many manufacturers and mer- chants have been wanting him to do for more than five years.
 High Lira Mussolini's Pride
 To Mussolini the high stabili- zation of his currency was matter of prestige. The lira became worth more than the French franc. It was given a ratio of 19 (paper to the dollar, 92.46 to the pound sterling and 3.66 to the gold lira. And he has since defended that valorization as matter of prestige and policy
 ' In his famous Pesaro speech, which he later rsquoted to the council of ministers, he said: | T should like to say that we shall conduct the economic battle in defense of the lira with the most strenuous resolution, and I say from this square, to the whole civilized world, that we will defend the lira to the last breath, to the last drop of blood
 Some Want Lower Lira
 To manufacturers and exporters, however, the situation was not so clearly defined. Some believed that the lira had been stabilized too high.
 They had been doing a fair ex- port business under a less valuable lira. The revalorization of the cur- rency made competition more diffi- cult for them in the international selling market.
 As Mussolini admitted, the stabi- lization increased the value of the lira by 58 points with reference to the pound sterling) as compared with maximum quotations in Au- gust, 1926; by 28 points in com parison with 1925 and the first months of 1926 by 15 points com pared with the quotations of Mo- vember- December. 1922.
 Exports Fall Since 1927
 Exports fell off following 1927, and there were many protests But to all Mussolini returned decisive No"
 Now, however, the situation is different. Both the dollar and the pound sterling, to which the lira was proportioned, are off the gold standard. The lira has an artifi- cially high valuation in relation to the dollar and the pound. Tourists

 Price stability cannot be reestablished merely by mcne- tary provisions.
 2.-International debts can not be paid other than with

are being scared away, exports to America are declining.
 { And now comes the world eco-
 homie conference, opening June 12, with all notions apparently in ac- cord that something must be done to remedy the currency situation. Here, say bankers and business
 men, is Italy's chance to lower her stabilization point, without loss of prestige.
 But they insist that the restabili- zation shall be thorough enough to carry the lira down to the level of the franc, not leave it, as at pres ent, 30 per cent higher.
 On other points Of the confer ence Italy hopes to see a reduction
 of tariffs, a return of other nations to the gold standard, on which she
 herself is thoroughly based with nearly 50 per cent coverage, and elimination of exchange restrictions. Italy wants. also drastic sealing
 down on intergovernmental debts. But payment on these, as Il Duce
 himself has outlined, should be made by exchanges of goods and
 services, Italians say, and not by lthe transfer of money or gold.
