100000 under the will of his mother,
whose funeral was halted while he
was arraigned on non-support

The funeral Of Mrs. Ruth Payne

LONDON. March IS. - Richard
Washburn Child, President Roosevelt's
newly appointed European trade
Ambassador, +" will be received cordially
in highest government circles. it was
learned yesterday, and commercial
interests see in his scheduled visit here
a new move to increase British
American business
Pending the outcome of the con-
Versatlons here, British trade leaders
and American interests believe an
immediate increase in commerce be-
tween the two countries depends
largely OH stabiliZation of foreign eX-
change and easier methods for the
sale Of British goods in the United
States
The British government, though
uncertain as to the various fields
Child Will explore. recognizes that
new trade horizon has been brought
into view by President Roosevelt's
recent declarations on tariffs and
kindred subjects
There is also an indication that the
Government here intends to rely more
in the future on bilateral negotia-
tions with other countries for an up
turn in British foreign trade.
Mission Goes to Poland.
A special mission has just been sent
to Poland to discuss what direction
the United Kingdoms exports to
Poland can be increased" and busi-
ness circles understand that this is
the sort of trading" that Britain
Will resort to from now on. 1t will
be direct negotiation of concessions
for British goods in exchange for
concessions on imports.
British official circles have let it
be known that any initiative on the
matter of increased American trade
with Great Britain should come from
the United States, and that is why
Childs visit is regarded as of the
greatest Importance
There has always been a wide diff
ference in the volume of American
purchases from Britain and Amer
icdn sales here.
Move the lines closer together
if America wants larger market in
the British Isles" one trade leader
asserted.
He stated in effect the British
policy of buy from us and we will
buy from YOU which has been used
TO advantage in dealings with many
other nations in the world.
Dollar Stability Urged.
Sterilization of the dollar is also
urged here in all circles. Fluctuation
is often 50 great in a single DAY that
importing companies hesitate to make
deals for goods for fear of a heavy
loss.
Such things as reciprocal trade, ad-
Vertlslng campaigns, trade missions
and efforts to discover new lines of
trade are far from new in British
American relations. Trade has been
carried on for so long between the
two countries that few methods have
been left unexploited
Quality. design. efficiency and util-
ity are sometimes used individually
or collectively to bolster sales of
American products here. A number
of recent isolated cases of the sale
of cheap goods has not helped trade
in general.
What both British and American
circles want is some definite sort
of a base for cooperation They
are hopeful that Child will be able
to find some means of permanently
increasing the flow of goods between
the two countries.
They say that an excellent oppor-
tunity presents itself.

DETROIT, March 15.-Henry Ford,
IN an interview yesterday, said that
Improvement of industrial and COM
mercial conditions would be speeded
by general advance of wages, warned
against "get-rich-quick schemes" and
credited President Roosevelt with
stopping "a good many harmful
things that could be put over on

He predicted that conditions would
continue to improve throughout the
year.

wages in all lines
Previously, he had said that mo
one loses anything by raising wages
as soon as he is able" and that II
am mighty glad wages are climbing
again"
I believe the bankers cannot put
anything more over on the American
people-at least not in this genera
tlon." Ford said. In the last wear
the American people have learned so
much about the bankers they are no
longer afraid of them.
The bankers would like to use the
banks and the labor unions and any,

Activities of the Treasury De
partment will be more closely
scrutinized than ever by poll
ticians throughout the nation for
the next several months.
More than ordinary attention
has been drawn to this important
department within the past few
days with the exodus of several
men from key positions in the
financial institution, and 1t will
be interesting, in political as well
as financial circles, to watch what
tranSpires.
Initiation FOreseen
Many believe the wholesale
designations which recently have
taken place, combined with the
appointment to the vacated posi-
tions of supporters of Secretary
Henry Morgenthau, jr., are the
forerunner Of an extensive lntIa'
tionary program.
It is pointed out that all those
who have left the department are
conservatives, with fiscal and
monetary beliefs widely differing
with those of the head Of the de
partment, whereas those who
have been named to succeed the
conservatives are followers Of the
liberal Mr.. Morgenthau.

From four to six pounds of
beef are given weekly to each
relief family as result of the
slaughter of the cattle which were
brought from the drought area of
the midwest last summer.
The owners of pastures who
pastured government cattle last
summer are receiving checks for
their services. Nine checks were
received during the past week to
the amount of $237.7S, but this
was only partial payment for pas
ture rent.
The relief office appreciates the
cooperation of the public in call
ing this office for desirable help
for domestic purposes or for man
labor. Of course, we don't appre-
ciate the impotence of some peo-
pie who make inquiry on the as
sumption that we have so or more
grouped in the relief office walt
ing for a call for work. Our pol
icy is to keep them away from
the relief office except as they
have business here. There has also
been a misunderstanding about
the attitude of the office towards
those who can find work. Some
conceal the fact that they have
work, and others cooperate with
us in finding what work they can.
1t is not the policy of the relief
office to withdraw help from peo-
pie who have part or whole-time
work. When their wages are not
sufficient to take care of the
needs of the family such wages
are supplemented by the relief
office. Where the prospect is for
only two or three hours work we
are not in a position to send out
such labor on immediate notice.
The relief office has both men
and women that it can recommend
for good faithful work. either for
permanent or temporary work.
When work is offered to any
of our relief cases regardless of
the wage, and they refuse to &C
cept it the office would appreciate
knowing the circumstances. Quite
often we have to withdraw help
from persons who will not coop
crate with the government, and
especially those who will not help
themselves.
