AVERAGE MAN NOT DIRECTLY
AFFECTED BY DOLLAR VALUE
Rise In Commodity Prices With Core
spending Increase In Wages Expected To
Be Most Direct Result.

WASHINGTON, Feb. /. (UP) - A
new step to promote industrial re-
covery and prosperity is the prime
motive OF President Roosevelt in de-
validating the American dollar and
making other monetary moves.
Devaluation was the Presidents
ACE in the hole" to raise prices for
commodities. Government econom-
lists believe this is the key to a re-
stcration Of normal business rela-
tionS.
The average man is not directly
affected by the governments new
monetary step insofar as the money
in his pocket and in the bank is
concerned. He may see the price of
shoes, coal, rent and other necessi-
ties gradually rise and impair his
buying power. But the government
hopes to more than offset this by
promoting rising wages and salaries
and more active business.
Some of the questions to the av
erage citizen represented by the new
monetary plan were answered un-
officially today as follows:
@. Why was the gold content of
the dollar reduced to Is 5-21 grains
of gold nine-tenths fine from the
cid content of 25.8 grains?
A. Because it automatically fixed
a foreign exchange value of the dol
lar in terms of gold at 5906 cents,
a step which administration Off
cials hope will cause a correspond
ing rise in prices.
@. Why is rise in prices desired?
A. BY restoring price levels and
wages to levels at which the coun-

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-Uncle
Sam entered the international mon
ey markets today with a fund of So
000,000,000 while the American peo-
pie began doing business with a So
vo cent gold dollar in conformity
with the most striking and vital ex-
pertinent of the new DEAL
The immediate domestic effect Of
President Roosevelt's devaluation of
the former gold content of the dol
lar was expected to be nil. Commo-
dities and the cost Of living should
rise bit, but it should be a grad
ual process, accompanied, the adj
ministration believes, by increased
income for the people. The dollar
domestically still is worth 100 cents,
but on the basis of its former gold
content of one ounce of gold valued
at S20.67 it is worth 5906 cents.
The foreign effect was expected
to be world shaking In devaluating
the dollar, Mr. Roosevelt coincident-
ly created the $4,000 100000 stabil-
ization fund with which to buy and
sell gold, foreign exchange and gov
ernment securities. A world wide
battle for foreign markets may de-
vclop around that fund, and be-
tween Great Britain and the Uni
ted States. The funds operation
will be surrounded by the strictest
secrecy with only Mr. Roosevelt and
Henry Morgenthau, secretary of the
treasury, cognizant of its dealings
Under the law they may spend from
it today or whenever they choose
and need not report for three years.
Morgenthau simultaneously fixed
$35 an ounce as the price at which
the New York federal bank hence
forth will buy all gold offered. for
eign and domestic. Gold boarded in
defiance of administration orders
will not be purchased. Morgenthau

Price changes in the markets
for heavy and fine chemicals
last week were without effect on
the general structure; although
reductions predominated in num-
Der, according to the Oil, Paint

Demand showed little change,
the only noticeable activity being
in paint materials. Operations
in the textile, automotive. steel,

continued slack. There was, how
ever, some improvement in the
business sentiment.
Higher prices were named for
anthony oxide, Manila copal
gum, and hoof meal. Reductions
affected lead oxides, several
varnish gums. castor pomace, and
Japanese fish scrap. Prices
issued for 1885 on aqua ammonia
and ammonia salts were those
in the existing schedules. Sea-
sonally considered, demand for
coaltar solvents was fairly good.

OIL MEN WILL

over the country have converged

The American Petroleum Tnsti-

those engaged in the various
branches Of the business, will

Secretary 1ckes, oil code admin
istrator, and Amos L. Beatty, chair
man of the planning and coordi-
nation committee, will speak TO-
morrow.
Great problems face the visitors.
One Of them is the waste of a rich
natural resource. Just how much
oil is hidden beneath the earth is
something that biologists can
only guess at, but all agree that
wasteful methods used by certain
groups in the industry rapidly are
draining natural wealth that never
can be regained once it is gone.
Hot oil" is another problem

more complicated by the fact that

Action of the United States Treas
ury in dropping foreign exchange
curbs except those on gold, com.
bined with the slated resignation

This sent the dollar soaring to

urday's close.
Franc Falls Off
On the local market, the franc
dropped half a point to 6.5Sh
cents, preSaging further gold
shipments to this country. Today's
renewed rise in the dollar further
upset the calculations Of a mum
Der of local banks which on Sat
urday had cancelled engagements
to ship gold to this country.
At the same time the rise in
sterling sent the London price to
1879 shillings half penny an ounce
from 139 Shillings 6 pence yester-
day. Converted into dollars this
was equivalent to $34.79 an ounce
