Small Exports Curb Depreciation Effect
Dr. Sprague Says Influence Prices Limited Commodities
Entering Foreign Trade.

Of a large increase in the volume of
production. But the industries of the
United States are already safeguarded
from foreign competition by high tar
III duties and there Is a definite pro-
vision IN the national recovery act for
additional duties, in the event that
costs increase to such an extent as
to make possible a disturbing amount
of foreign competition.
Finds Results Uncertain.
Even a convinced adherent of free
trade doctrines would readily be pre-
pared to admit that higher duties are
a far more appropriate means of safe
guarding N. r. A. policies from the
undermining influences of foreign COM
petition than a depreciating dollar with
all of its uncertain consequences.
In addition to the lessening infiu-
ence which depreciating dollar seems
to be exerting on prices, it also exerts
positive deflationary influence. This
Is not due so much to depreciation it
self. but to what that policy implies.
1t implies. on the part of the admin
iStration, reliance upon extreme mon
etary measures as a means of bringing
about higher level Of prices and a
trade recovery.
The banking and business commu-
nifty. therefore, is hesitant because it
naturally fears that, when the Warren
program of depreciation of the dollar
is seen to be ineffective. the admins
tration, instead Of reverting TO reason
ably sane monetary policies, will either
experiment with devaluation at the
present or lower value Of the dollar, as
expressed in the price of gold, or re-
sort to positive inflationary measures.
In the next article I shall consider
the influence which devaluation and
imitation may be expected to exert on
prices and on the desired recovery in
trade.

Bolivian Legation Calls Army Men of
1917.

Reports that 16-year-old boys have
been called for army service by Bolivia
in the war against Paraguay in the
Gran Chaco were denied today in a
formal communique issued by the Bo-
livian legation.
The reports, the communique said,
are based on both the excited imagina-
tion of war correspondents and to
propaganda. Misinterpretation of the
call of the class of 1917 led to the re-
port that boys born that year had been
sent to the front. The legation ex-
planned that instead the class of 1917
is composed of men who served in the
army that year.

PROGRESS IN BRIDGE MATTER


Looking facts square in the face-not
rumors, opinions or spite vaporings
| progress has been made in the last week
| in obtaining a loan for the construction of
the proposed long bridges than during any
other time since the project was CON
ceived.
The reasan, sound, solid one, for
that assertion is this: during the last
week Representative j. Mark Wilcox
Henry H. Taylor and ]. Lancelot Lester
have arranged to place the bridge data
before Colonel Donald H. Sawyer, adj
ministrator of the $4,000, 600, 900 fund of
the public works program, and they feel
confident that the money will be obtained
from that source.
Presentation of the data is pre-
liminary to the formal application to be
made by the bridge commission, the nam
ing of which by Governor Sholtz, The
Citizen has been assured, is likely to occur
at any moment.
As nobody can foretell the future
even in the most simple things of life, no
body can therefore declare positively that
the loan will be obtained, but it can be
said that there is every reason, and not
even minor drawback, that the loan will
be granted. @
Because the unexpected sometimes
happens, The Citizen does not say definite
~ that the loan will be obtained, though
it has been told by one who recently re-
turned from Washington, "Pm sure we are
going to get the money for the bridges
That person said he would not be
surprised in the least when the loan is
granted, but, in view of information that
he got while in Washington, he will be as
founded if the Public Works Committee
does not allocate money for the construc-
ton Of the bridges.
That view is corroborated by a dis
patch in today's Citizen from its Washing
ton correspondent. Whether it turns out
to be correct or not, it is still fact that
more has been done in a substantial way
in the last week to get the bridge money
than during any other time.
In view of those conditions, there is
less ground for pessimism now over the
bridge project than at any other time. Dur
ing the last year there have been dark
moments, when it appeared that the
bridge project was in hopeless tangle,
but there are no dark moments now,
This is the sunshine moment for opti-
mism: this is the time when we should
brush disquiet and suspense from our
minds. If we are wrong in doing that,
the present conditions do not warrant that
circumstance.
According to the dispatch, the data
will be turned over to Colonel Sawyer
some time this week, and the likelihood is
that we will not have to wait long to learn
whether or not our confidence will be justi-
fled.
