ON RECOVERY
At HOME
Money of Fixed Purchasing
Value Key to Problem,
President Thinks
By International News Service

ny ANO"S SCENiNO
Determined to build the basis
for future American prosperity
at home rather than risk the
welfare of the country in any in
ternational attempt at world
wide business recovery, President
Roosevelt today sought a method
by which to operate a managed
currency.
The President let it be known
his objective is to seek a man
aged dollar that always will have
the same purchasing value in re-
1ation to the general level of do
mestic commodities.
Plans Not Worked Out
His aim is to restore prices to
q level at which industry and
agriculture can function profit
ably and efficiently. When prices
reach that level, he intends to
hitch the dollar to the general
commodity level.
Just how this will be accom-
, pliShed has not been worked out,
but the President has made it his
objective and intends to find
methods by which it will be pos
sible.
The purpose Of this managed
currency plan is to keep the dollar
steady in relation to commodity
prices. If commodities rise, the
dollar would rise correspondence
and vice versa If commodities
dropped.
Mr.. Roosevelt believes that in
order to make this managed dol
lar plan workable it will be ad-
visable to keep gold within this
country and maintain it princi-
pally as collateral for currency.
Therefore, he is unwilling to
agree to join with Europe in any
equalization fund scheme to con-
troll the fluctuations of foreign
exchanges.
Fears Gold Export
He fears such an agreement
might morally obligate this Gov
ernment to export gold in order
to meet the demands of an
equalization fund and he is not
prepared to do this at present.
Furthermore, he does not
agree with some of the European
nations that gold should be used
principally as a medium of in
ternational exchange.
In fact, the Presidents con-
ception is just the reverse. He
believes it should be used as col
lateral behind paper currency
and that it should exist mainly
IN the form of bullion and kept
within each nation instead of
being shifted back and forth, en-
dangering the financial stability
of the respective countries with
its movements.

CHILDREN CAMP
IDEA BACKED

The Importance of regarding
the problem of the child as sepa-
rate from that of the adult during
the present economic crisis has
been urged upon the Federal Re-
lief Administrator, Harry L. Hop
kins, by Mrs. Roosevelt.
Mrs. Roosevelt said today that
since the opening of the Bear
Mountain camp for unemployed
women she had received numerous
appeals to do something of the
kind for children.
Several Of the letters pointed
out that there were already avail
able camps owned by churches
and charitable organizations that
had been unable to open them
for lack of funds.
These letters. Mrs. Roosevelt
said, she has turned over to Mr..
Hopkins.
Mrs. Roosevelt was vehement
in her plea that the children not
be permitted to grow up under
nourished, that food, above all
things, be the first consideration.

GRANTEDN,Y,

An additional grant Of $4,377,-
1913 was made today to New York
State by Harry L. Hopkins, Fed
eral emergency relief admins
traitor.
Hopkins said the grant is
based on the reported public re-
lief expenditures from all sources
in New York during the first
three months of the present year.
Previously, the Federal emergency
relief administrator has granted
$6,532,282 to New York, making
the total granted to date to New
York $1O,91O,18O.
A grant Of $3,500,000 was made
to Illinois.
Hopkins said this initial grant
is based upon the partially re-
ported public relief expenditures
from all sources in Illinois during
the second quarter of the present
year. Previously, he granted ST.
434,663 to Illinois based on first
quarter expenditures, making a
total Of $10,934,663 granted to
date.
An additional grant Of $19,467
was made to Connecticut which
previously was granted 1898, ,528.

ing postponement of the currency
stabilization problem.
The compromise represented a
victory for Secretary Of State
Cordell Hull, chief of the Arneri
can delegation. Acting under or
ders from President Roosevelt,
he spent the entire day in at
tempting to convince the steer
ing committee that complete ad-
journment of the conference was
out of the question.
He insisted there was much
valuable economic work to be
done even thought currency sta
bilization could not be discussed,
and stressed the baneful effect
upon public opinion if the parley
recessed until October, as de-
manded by the gold nations. He
said:
"The conference will continue.
Both the monetary and eco
nOmic commissions will remain
in session. The gold nations
have reserved not to participate
in monetary discussions"
While Secretary Hull attended
the meeting for the United States
the rest of the American dele
gates, including Prof. Raymond
Moley and other members of the
So-called brain trust" milled
around their hotel interviewing
one another about steamer reser
vations, continental holidays, and
plans for leaving London.
Agree Farley Has Failed
They we're virtually a unit that
the conference is a failure, ire
spective of how beautifully the
corpse is laid out.
Hull took the position that the
United States does not want the
conference to adjourn, and he
stressed that the onus must be

whole program is under recon-
sideration, in view of the improve

led Secretary Roper to check
further cuts in his own organiza-
ton.
The patronage problem, how
ever, is by no means solved, but
indications of a compromise are in
the air.
The present outlook is that,
without undue publicity. Presi-
dent Roosevelt will recommend
that dismissals be checked, and
that competent employees dis
missed or furloughed be pro-
vided for in the new agencies or
by public works appropriations.
In the field. however, where

precedent and present tendencies
indicate that those who have ac-
quired civil service status by eX-
ecutive of departmental order
will be out of luck.
A tempest in a teapot was
stirred up some months ago when,
in the closing days of the Hoover
regime, a number of employees of
the Department of Labor, includ-
ing Edward S. Doak and Abraham
Dickstein, relatives, respectively,
of former Secretary Doak and
Representative Dickstein (R0 of
New York, were blanketed into
civil service jobs as special in
vestigatorS of the immigration
Bureau.
without flourish Of trumpets,
President Roosevelt recently re-
voked their civil service status by
executive order, and Secretary
Roper has indicated much interest
in the $50 odd employees similarly
popped into civil service jobs in
his Bureau of Foreign and Do
mestic Commerce. Some Of these
were caught in the general clean

yards there, board the new cruiser

j. 5. WILL SHIFT
ITS FOREIGN
CENTERS
Latin-AmeriCa, Russia, Orient
To Replace Europe; World
Court Further Away
BY international News Service

BY International News Service
A tremendous shift of Amer
lean foreign policy, worldwide il
its ramifications, was anticipated
in we'll informed Washington cir
cles today as a result of the eco
nomic conference debacle at Lon
don.
The United States was seen as
ready to transfer it's centers OF
foreign diplomatic effort to Latin
America, the Orient and Russia
leaving European nations to stew
in their own juice.
President RooSevelt's blunt
spoken message to the world
economic parleS, described by
European critics as "a new dec
laration Of American Independ-
ence," fitted with prophetic fidel-
ity into a pattern of predictions
made by some Of his close friends
on Capitol Hill.
Out Of Patience
These predictions were that the
Chief Executive, although per-
fectly willing to meet with Euro
pean statesmen on a give-and-
take basis, had determined not
to permit a repetition of past
international conferences at which
America "lost its shirt" The
President was represented as be-
ing out Of patience with European
efforts to wiring further conces-
sions from this country without
yielding anything in return.
To members of this group, the
Roosevelt 'Bombshell" refusing to
stabilize the dollar on a tempo
rary basis came as no surprise.
And neither did other develop
ments, highly significant when
viewed as component parts of a
broad foreign policy.
Among the developments were
a huge naval building program
involving more than 1913, 900 90
during the next two years; policy
OF rapproachment toward Latin
American countries, and prelim-
mary moves looking toward dip
lomatic and greatly increased
trade relations with Russia.
Huge Home Program
Side by side with these was a
gigantic program of domestic self
containment, involved in the
major relief and recovery acts
passed at the special session.
Overwhelming support from Con-
gress was in sight as all signs
pointed to a far more uncompro-
missing American stand toward
Europe than has prevailed during
the past 20 years.
1t is widely realized in Wash
ington that American adherence
to the world court has been re-
moved even farther from the
realm of reality as a result of
the bitter animosities created at
the London parley.

RECOVERY HELM
TAKEN OVER BY
ROOSEVELT
President Discusses Plan With
Budget Head; Finds Aides
Clash on Administration
BY International News Service


President Roosevelt took over
the helm Of his national recovery
program in earnest today, going
over the whole set up with Di-
rector of the Budget Lewis w.
Douglas.
He found there were two
schools of thought among the
various aides he named to ad-
minister the recovery act.
Douglas Very Wary
Douglas will insist States in
which Federal recovery projects
are contemplated, must first bal
ance their budgets before such
projects are started. He thinks
sharp pruning knife is neces-
Sary in the case of the dozens
Of the unrevealed projects already
presented Mr.. Roosevelt by Secre-
tary Of Interior Ickes and Secre-
tary Of Commerce Roper, who
head the two major committees
in the recovery organization.
Dougles is a little at variance
with the ideas Of some officials
in the recovery organization who
feel large sums should be spent
as quickly as possible.
He holds no projects should be
undertaken until they have been
studied and found to be neces-
sary, useful and sound. AS he
explained it, he wished to "see
where we are going" before any
actual project construction is be-
gun.
Can Be Done
AS consequence of today's
conference, action by the Presi-
dent and his aides on the public
works projects probably will be
slowed little.
Douglas made it plain that it
was within the power of the
Federal Government to compel
States to balance their budgets
before allocating any of the re-
covery projects within their bor-
ders.
Brig. Gen. Hugh S. johnson,
who heads the recovery organiza-
tion, called at the White House
while Douglas was there but said
he had not seen the President.
Another matter to which the
President gave his attention was
an invitation rendered him by the
Shriners asking him to speak
at their Atlantic City convention
on July 10.
The President has not decided
either way on this, but was un-
derstood to be hopeful he could
find time to visit with the
ShrinerS.
