Tulsa, Okla, Jan. 16.-(F)N0ov.
William LANCER of North Dakota said
here Monday night he will carry his
fight for an embargo on outstate
wheat shipments to the u. s. SUI
preme court.
Gov. LANCER. here for an overnight
visit with w. G. Shelly, Republican
national committeeman for Okla
homa, said he would telegraph p. o.
Satire, North Dakota attorney gen.
eral, to give notice Of appeal from a
ruling Of a three-judge federal court
In Fargo Monday.
II intend to fight this action to
the last ditch" he said.
The Judges held invalid a law
sponsored by the governor and placed
in effect Oct. Is, 1888, declaring 1t
tnterfered with interstate commerce,
which is subject to action only BY
congress. A group Of North Dakota
elevator companies joined in bring
ing the suit.
tuesday Gov. LANCER will fly to
Oklahoma City. where he will adj
dress the annual convention OF the
Oklahoma Farmers Union.
The federal court decision ended
the first test Of a law passed by the
last legislature giving the governor
power to declare embargoes on agri-
cultural products when prices fell
below cost Of production. Attorney
General p. q. Satire said he would
study the decision before determine
ing whether to appeal to the supreme
court, but that he believed such &C
ton might be taken. He said the
appeal could be taken directly to the
high court.
The ruling held that the embargo
law was in direct conflict with the
commerce clause OF the constitution
and that the state has no power to
interfere directly with interstate
commerce regardless OF economic
conditions"
1.-The case," the decision said, us
not primarily a conflict between the
police power Of the state and the
rights Of individuals, but conflict
between the power Of the state and
the power Of the United States with
respect to a subject with which. UNI
der the constitution, congress alone
has the right to deal"
Governor william A. LANCER order
ed the embargo on wheat October Is
last. He said he hoped by this act
to raise the price Of grain by keep
ing it off the market and later
sought, without success, to have gov
errors in neighboring states take
similar action.

IN MONEY CONTEST
Dollars and Pounds to Be PaWns
In Manipulation Of Stabil-

BRITISH PLAN IS COPIED
London Already Has 81 300.
600, 900 Available to Steady
Foreign Exchange

New York. Jan. l6.-(F-With dol,
lars and pounds as pawrs and pros
perity the stakes, Uncle Sam and John
Bull are preparing for an extraordi.
nary contest In finance-but whether
they will play as partners or opponents
remains to be seen.
The United States Is preparing Ia
duplicate the huge British equaliza.
ton fund for which parliament has
appropriated funds approximating
close to 81 900, 100000 at the current
rate Of exchange.
President Roosevelt, In his message
to congress Monday proposed the crea-
ton Of a $4,000. 900 900 fund to control
the value Of the dollar in relation to
the British pound sterling, and also, II
necessary. to steady the market for
U. S. Government bonds.
Inflationists in this country want
to see the dollar decline in relation
to the pound. The committee for tho
nation has suggested q rate for the
dollar as low as 81 to the pound. Re-
cent rates have been between IS and
$3.50. London was happy when. a year
ago. the pound was around $685. ana
1t was felt In international banking
circles at that time that about the
highest the pound could be stabilized
would be $3.50. At the start Of the
economic conference last June it was
understood the British could not en-
dure q higher level than $3.50. al.
though they later agreed to tenta-
tive sterilization around $40.
Compromise Il Limited
What the financial world now awaits
to see Is whether the two giant fin.
ancial powers will compromise upon
a rate at which to stabilize their cur
rencies, perhaps somewhere within
striking distance Of the old parity Of
S4864s, or whether the two giant funds
will engage In contest for advantage
SO far as can be learned In sources
close to the federal reserve bank. it,
relations with the bank Of England
are most amiable and some financial
quarters believe that II compromise
could be reached the two funds might
indeed cooperate to restore words
monetary stability.
The operations Of the American and
British funds may, for instance. drive
France off the gold standard and
cause fall In the value Of the franc.
Bankers recall that the British All.
thorities have used the argument Of
the effect Of the pound on American
prices in seeking remission or post
ponement OF the war debt payments
When sterling was off gold and Nuct@
uating, and the dollar was still on gold,
the British pointed out that payment
Of the debt installment would require
selling pounds and buying dollars
thus depreciating the pound and tend
ing to depreciate American prices.
