President Declares u. S.
viii Not Endanger
Price Raising.
BY HARRY FLORY
United Press STAFF Correspondent

LONDON, July 3. The
world economic conference
was brought to a standstill to-
day by President Roosevelt's
fOrceful declaration refusing
to join temporary currency
sterilization moves, demand
ing removal of trade barriers
and higher world prices pre-
liminary to fixing currencies
in such manner that they will
remain stable in purchasing
power for a generation.
The gold standard nations Of
Europe retaliated by boycOtting sub
committees of the conference and
issuing a defiant declaration that
they would remain on gold.
Only one or two committees con-
tinued to function, discussing
academic matters. 1t was feared
Prime Minister j. Ramsay Mac
Donald might soon be forced to ac-
cept formula which would permit
decent burial Of the conference
through adjournment, probably with
the face-saving appointment of
committees to resume work later
at Geneva.
Mr.. Roosevelt earlier told in a
telegram published today by State
Secretary CordeIl Hull what he IS
trying to do for America and the
world.
Explaining forcefully and frankly
why the United States would not
endanger its price-raising efforts in
order to join Europe in stabilizing
currencieS, the President said:
Wants Generation" Dollar
The old fetishes of so-called in
ternational bankers are being re-
placed by efforts to plan national
currencies, with the objective of
giving those currencies continuing
purchasing power which does not
greatly vary in terms of commodi-
ties and the need of modern civiIi-
cation.
Let me be frank in saying the
United States seeks the kind Of
dollar which a generation hence
will have the same purchasing and
debt paying power as the dollar
value we hope to attain in the near
future he declared.
That objective means more to
the good of nations than a fixed
ratio for a month or Two in terms
Of pound or franc.
Our broad purpose is the perma-
nent sterilization of every nations
currency"
1t would be time to talk stabiliza-
ton Of currencies, the President
said, when nations balance their
budgets.
Boost Trade, Farley Told
Having said that, he told the
economic conference its present
task was to mitigate enlbargoes and
stimulate trade.
The conference was called" he
said TO better and perhaps cure
fundamental economic ills. 1t must
not be diverted from that effort"
There came almost at once after
publication of the Presidents teIe-
gram, reliable information that
Great Britain, under strong pres
sure from her dominions was con-
sidering emulation Of the American
price-raising program, if possible in
cooperation with the United
States.
If the plan reached maturity and
cooperation was found practicable,
it was said, there would be a far
reaching effort to subordinate
everything to attaining a higher
world level Of prices.
Neville Chamberlain. chancellor
of the British eXchequer, was I'M
derstood to be drafting the plan
after consultation with the domin-
ions.
Canada, especially, was said to be

ANCIENT music
CAPT|vATES
AUDIENCE

A Costume Recital of Eliza
bethia Music" the fourth Of six
concerts for the benefit Of unem-
ployed Washington musicians
presented by the Ten O'Clock
Club, proved to be the most novel
and interesting of the series thus
far.
The capacity crowd that JAM
med the washington Club audi
torium last night enthusiastically
received a well-executed program
of Tuder period music offered by
local artists.
To Miss Sade c. Styron, whose
research has made her an
authority on this little publicised
period of musical history, belongs
credit in abundance for the
arranging and staging of this
unique entertainment.
Works of Byrd, Gibbons, Nichol-
son, Morley and many traditional
airs were heard.
The Madigral Singers, I"
automatically costumed and
directed by Mrs. John M.
Sylvester, sang difficult polophy-
nonic numbers with finish and
ease. A strong "consort" (sextet)
read several quaint airs grace
fully. Young Calderon Howe
drew a big hand with a ire
corder," an early period flute.
Miss Styron held her listeners
tense as she exhibited her
mastery of the ancient clavichord.
1t was a most successful con-
cert. Next Tuesdays artists will
be Robert Ruckman, pianist and
Milton Schwartz, violinist.-G.

down and discovered, a little
farther on, that part of the
porch was missing as we'll. The
straight a way Eleanor ex-
planned in describing the jaunt
she and her young brother Hall
had taken, presented no diff
culties at all; it was the cor
ners that had proved their
Waterloo.
Even though he was married
and by this time the father of
two babies-James having ar
rived upon the scene-Franklin,
at Eleanors urging, continued
his custom of taking a short
trip each summer with two or
three of his classmates at Har-
ward. Sometimes the party
grew to larger proportions, but
they used to try to keep it un-
der six so that they could all
of them be comfortably accom-"
modated in the Half Moon.
Hunted Buried Treasure
One year, I remember, they
sailed up to Nova Scotia in
search of buried treasure.
Franklin had never quite out
grown the urge that had sent
him on many an expedition in
his early youth-the quest of
the unknown-and he started
on this fruitless journey with
all the enthusiasm of a small
boy going off on a lark. They
spent days prospecting for a
pirates hoard, but found moth
ing more exciting than a cor
morant's nest which Hall Roose-
velt brought back with him and
displayed with evident pride,
only to be told that he might
not set so much as a foot in
the house until he had disposed
of it and had been thoroughly
disinfected.
These little holidays stood
Franklin in very good stead, for
he kept hard at his work all
through the winter. His week.
ends, it is true, were frequently
spent at Hyde Park where he
went in for ice boating and
winter sports, but for all his en-
thuSiaSm for the outdoors his
interest never Waned in all the
local activities. He belonged,
as his father had before him,
to the Eagle Engine Company
and to the Rescue Hook and
Ladder Company of DutchesS
County, and Joined the Dutchess
County Society, where he had an
excellent opportunity of discus
sing politics-a subject he loved
even then with men we'll
versed in the topics of the
times.

Franklin's studies, which was
not great deal. The house
was extremely simple, but very
cozy. Franklin had his treas
ured books and prints around
him, and Eleanor, who was in
Stinctively a homemaker, had
done wonders with the little
place.
Shortly before the end Of
Franklin's second year at law
a little girl was born to them,
Anna Eleanor. She was golden
haired and had deep blue eyes
that crinkled up with laughter
even as a small baby.
Starts First Work
The following year, in 1907,
Franklin completed his course
of study, and went to work for
the first time. He became asso-
ciated with Carter, Ledyard &
Milburn, and before long his
energy and zeal earned him a
promotion, and he became man.
aging clerk. In short order he
found himself we'll on the road
to acquiring a fine general prac-
tice and went at his job with a
zest that has characterized
every act of his life.
But his time was not occu-
pied solely with work, although
he was much interested in the
running of Hyde Park, particu-
larly the forestry end of it.
There was always room for dl-
version of one kind or another.
even if, from my old-fashioned
point of view, he and Eleanor
often sought it in pretty haz-
ardous directions.
Franklin had one of the first
Fords around, and for some rea-
son or other it would run only
in high gear. This in no wise
prevented him, however, from
taking long drives in it and
using it to commute from New
York to Seabright, where he
and Eleanor had taken a sum-
mer place. He used to wait UNI
til the ferryboat was quite clear
of people, then start for it in a
rush, hoping to be able to get
the car to stop before it rolled
off at the other end. AS soon
as the ferry had pulled into the
slip and had unloaded it's pas
sengers, Franklin would start up
again, and in no time at all be
up the hill and on his way to
the SeaShore.
GatepOst Knocked Down
AS if this were not of itself
enough of trial, nothing would
do but Eleanor must also learn
to drive the contraption. Frank
lin, who did not share my ap-
prehension, thought it a capital
idea until one day, when he
came home from business he
found that the gatepost was

There is no legally constituted
Home Loan Bank board, according
to a ruling announced by Comp
troller General ]. R. McCarl, be-
cause there are three vacancies in
the membership of five, and there
fore the newly appointed chair
man as the chief executive officer
may carry on only such routine
business and limited activities as
are absolutely necessary with re-
spect to transactions heretofore
authorized and approved by the
board.
Activities thus permitted in
clude the signing of pay rolls
limited to employees who were ap-
pointed or employed by the legally
constituted board prior to March
4 of this year, and the chairman
is not permitted to delegate this
duty to a newly appointed secre-
tary.
The Federal Home Loan Bank
Board, one of the final creations
of the Hoover administration, has
been the target for much criti.
cism ever since its organization,
and this has become particularly
acute of late, when charges have
been made that the board, theo-
retically designed to aid home
owners, had not loaned a dollar
for that purpose. but had lent
some $120,00O,000 to financial in
stitutions. It's discontinuance, it
has been freely predicted, is immi-

Men may be bribed, but you can't

| Never try to hit the nail on the head
II 1T Is attached to your thumb
Every man who says that marriage is
a success praises both his wife and
himself.
Sympathy is all right in its place, but
it's poor substitute for beefsteak, If
a man Is hungry.
Every man has an excuse for want
ing the earth, but it is seldom satisfac-

Even women who have poor heads for
mathematics try awfully hard to make
their own fikures count.
A wife Is called the husbands better
haH-and some men are so mean they
don't care how the other half lives
Nothing seems to please a small boy
more than the opportunity to run
across the street in front of an auto

Charity as cloak often proves
misf1t.
Never give up the good things you
have while hoping for better.
Some women are so curious that they
will listen to advice just to find out
what it's like.

lot of great things usually ends by

A Sermon for Today
Bl REV. JOHN r. GUM.
Man of Poise

A4on VI xVlSCs
Behold also the ships, which
though they be so great, and are driven
by fierce winds, yet are they turned
about with very small helm. whittier
soever the governor listeth. James
iii4.
I am not thinking of the thing James
was illustrating when he drew this pic
ture OF the ships at sea. I am thinking
OF the man at the helm Of the ship and
his responsibility, and how important
1t Is, in view of his responsibility, that
he keep to his post, never losing his
hold on the helm, no matter what hap
pens. II the ship Is to be steered
safely into port, he must keep a steady
hand on the pilot wheel, must keep his
poise and not allow himself to be upset
or become confused by any disturbance
or distraction.
Since most Of us are more familiar
with automobiles than with ships, per-
haps we might better change the figure.
To drive an automobile with safety, you
must keep a steady hand on the steer
ing wheel and never lose your head.
He lost his head" is what we usually
say Of the driver when an accident oc-
ours. The driver losing his head is re-
sponsible for most accidents.
A news item a few days ago told of
a wreck caused by a bumblebee A
bumblebee flew into the automobile and
three people went to the hospital. The
little invader excited the driver, and
in his excitement he crashed his car
into a telephone post. OF course, q
bumblebee buzzing around ones head is
some test Of composure, but II you are
going to drive an automobile, you must
be prepared for even such a test.
The lesson is plain. Only the man
Of poise can be safely trusted with great
responsibility and great power. If you
want to be counted as a safe and de-
pendable man, you must know how to
keep your poise, whether you are steer
ing a ship, an automobile o. some i'm
portant enterprise. Watch out for
bumblebees. They are noisy and an
noying. There are other kinds Of bees
that sting. You are liable to be stung
any moment by some sharp criticism
or some vexing occurrence. But you
must not allow these stings, or any
other sort Of distractions to upset YOU
and throw you of your poise. You
have great interests in your charge
Perhaps there are human lives depend
ing on your steadiness. With so much
depending on you, you must maintain
your compoSure and stick to your post,
regardless Of how severely you may be
tested.
If you would steer your ship safely
into harbor, you must be man OF
poiSe.

arrival no one seemed TO know just
what Col. Howe's job was at the White
House. He was seldom seen. Mcintyre
and Early were the ones with whom
visitors to the White House came in
contact.
But it was Howe who stepped out and
took charge Of the bonus marchers.
The complaint was heard during the
Hoover administration that one secre-
tary didn't always know what the Pres
ident or other secretaries were doing on
routine matters.
One rather prominent person, for ex-
ample, complained after a visit to the
White House that he had been shunted
from one secretary to the other and
had left finally without what he wanted.
Under the plan followed by the Roose-
welt secretariat. If, for example, an in.
dividual thinks that he has a good rea.
son to see the President, he goes to Nc
Intyre. II it's concerned with the press
or public relations in general, Early il
the man to see.
Howe remains in the background url.
til something of outstanding Importance
comes up. Then he acts for the Pres.
ident.
Another important factor in the
Roosevelt set-up Is that his three secre-
taries are all close personal friends and
have been for years.
