Prof. Kemmerer Forecast
Results of Dollar De-
valuation.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. February 3.-Prof.
Edwin Walter Kemmerer, writing in
the New York Sun, predicted today
that the cost of living will be more
than double that of last November
when the depression Is over and re-
suits of the Roosevelt administrations
dollar devaluation have completely
worked themselves out.
Kemmerer. monetary expert who
is professor of international finance at
Princeton University, foresaw a gen.
eral price level 1l8 per cent higher
than last November's and a cost CT
living 1876 per cent higher He empha-
sized that these results would take
time
He also declared that "if present
tendencies are long continued, the
Federal Reserve System soon will be
little more than fiscal agency of
the Government"
Like the first and second United
States banks, its tenure of usefulness
as real central bank will have been
but 20 years" said Kemmerer.
His comment was made in a lengthy
analysis Of what he termed the new
monetary unit and new currency sys-
tenn" put into effect by the Roosevelt
administration January 81. lie said
The present gold reserve act CT
1881 ard other recent monetary and
banking legislation and Government
regulations have so weakened the
powers of the Federal Reserve system
in the fields in which a central bank
usually operates, except the purely
Government field. as to prevent it
from functioning in normal and ef-
fective way. Its powers have been ex-
tensively taken over by the Govern
ment and it is no longer fair to hold
it responsible for performing the usual
functions of central bank"
He called entirely sound" the ac-
ton of the Government in taking the
profit" arising from devaluation Of
the dollar to 5906 cents. He de-
| clared, however, the provision trans
| ferring legal title of Federal Reserve
gold TO the Government lis supported
by dubious legalistic argument"
A large part of his analysis was
devoted to future effects of devalua-
ton of the dollar. He said that if
we assume that the COMMODITY price
level of 1926 represents roughly what
will be the purchasing power of gold
when the world once works its way
out of this depression and when our
ranic-stricken international struggle
for gold has subsidized, then our COM
modify price level, when once the al
iustment to the new SO o6 cent dol
lar has been completely effected woul, 4
be as follows:
"All prices would be about SO per
cent higher than in 1926. wholesale
prices would be l39 per cent highe.
than for last November; general prices
would be lib per cent higher, and
the cost of living would be 1913 per
cent higher.
These are the price advances that
We may reasonably expect will ulti-
mately take place when the depres-
sion is over and when the results of
the devaluation have completely
worked themselves out
He emphasized that such advances
would take time and could not as
sumo much importance" until IN
some way an increased demand for
goods ard services should be created

District officials are preparing tc
make vigorous fight before the House
subcommittee on appropriations fol
inclusion in the 1885 supply bill OF
an item to provide for operation Of the
idle Southeast incinerator
Complaints from the Benning Citi-
zens' Association over continued oper-
alton of the offensive dump in that
territory have convinced the Commits
sioners of the necessity Of providing
funds for running the incinerator.
Blast Against Dump.
The latest blast against the Ben
ming dump was made yesterday by
Engineer Commissioner Gotwals in a
letter to Chairman Norton Of the
House District Committee Mrs. Nor
ton had referred to him a resolution
adopted by the Benning association
and in reply the Commissioner said
THE Commissioners appreciate the
uncomfortable situation created a,
times by the operation of the Ben
ming dump and have made every ef-
fort to restrict this nuisance to q
minimum"
Congress Action Necessary.
Maj. Gotwals added, however. that
the dump nuisance could not be
abated until Congress removed the
prohibition in the 1884 appropriation
act against the operation of the
Southeast incinerator. He invited
members of the House District Com.
mittee to visit the dump to study the
effect of its operation.
