CONVERSATIONS
WITH ENJOYS
DUE HERE
Treasury Officials to Seek
Tentative Agreements on
Sterilization Plans
BY ROBERT S. THORNBURGH,
international News Service


Within a short time Secretary
Of the Treasury Morgenthau
plans to begin informal converse
lions with representatives of the
principal foreign governments
looking to an international none
tary agreement on silver.
The initial discussions are eX-
pected to take place between Mr..
Morgenthau and ambassadors or
financial attaches of the prin-
cipal foreign nations. Great
Britain, France, any,
Belgium, italy. Russia, Japan and
China, as we'll as some Of the
Latin American countries, will be
asked to enter into an interna-
tional money pact in an effort
to develop a stable world none
tary system.
Officials claim such a program
would bring about sterilization
Of international trade.
The domestic silver program
has been designed essentially to
increase commodity prices.
Letters Made Public
Correspondence was made pub
lie today which clarified the rela-
tionship of the White House and
the Treasury in connection with
the silver program. The initial
letter was dated June IA and d.
rected the issuance of silver GER
tificates in the denominations of
81, IS, $40, $40 and 500 against
"all silver bullion or standard sill
yer dollars now in the Treasury
not held for redemption of any
outstanding silver certificates"
In addition to bullion there ex-
listed in the silver stocks about
$10,000,000 in free standard sill
yer dollars
On August 10 Mr.. Morgenthau
notified the treasurer to start is
Suance of silver certificates "in a
face amount equal to the cost of
the silver holdings" This was in
contrast TO Lne June OrQer winch
provided for the issuance of GER
tificates on the basis of $1.29 per
ounce of silver.
Order For Expansion
The President on August Is d.
rected Mr.. Morgenthau to issue
silver certificates against silver in
the Treasury received on or after
June Is. These certificates will
be issued at the cost price of
silver and the difference between
the cost and the statutory price
of $1.29 an ounce will be held
in the Treasury. Against this sur
plus silver certificates may be
issued later at the rate of 1929
per ounce.
Under the order of December
81, 1888, the Treasury so far has
purchased 1861, 900 fine ounces
of silver. Purchases under the
silver purchase act started yester-
day, but so far no report has been
made as to the amount acquired.

Was not the war insurance act

Was not the adjusted service

given Legion support under the
thesis that 1t would eliminate serv-

DO you believe that at $50
month the genuine war widows re-
Ceive ample compensation?
Did not the legion say in 1922
that If the bonus was granted that
they would not ask for a pension?
Why did you recently say that
