BANKER BACKS
j. 8. MONEY
POLICIES
Program Is JigsaW Puzzle
That Roosevelt Can Work,
Says VanderIip
BY International News Service
President Roosevelt's monetary

President Roosevelt's monetary
policy today was likened to a jig
saw puzzle-with the President
knowing how to work it-by Frank
A. Vanderlip, former president OF
the National City Bank OF New
York.
The financier's description Of
the Presidents policy, together
with a strong endorsement, was
given at the stabilization hearing
of the House Coinage Committee
today. Vanderlip said:
"Tt seems to me there is
much less mystery about what
the President is doing than his
opponents say, and I have no
reason for understanding 1t
more than anyone else.
Everything the President is
doing is falling into the pat
tern of q jig-Saw puzzle"
HITS FOREIGN ENTRIES
Urging return to modernized
gold standard as q necessary re
suit Of the present policy, Van
derlip scored foreign critics OF
the Roosevelt policy. He said:
English bankers talk Of the
mystery Of the Roosevelt none
tary policy, but the great myS-
terry is the British stabiliZatiOn
fund. A u. s, stabiIizatiOn fund
is the only way TO cOunterract
it,"
Vanderlip said the British had
used their funds to depreciate the
pound to gain foreign trade. He
strongly favored the Roosevelt
plan of creating a $4,000, 900, 900
American fund.
Fear Of Initiation
Vanderlip told the committee
he did not think "the Congress
or the people are feather headed
enough to go into unlimited in
flation."
He favored use of silver in the
monetary system and observed
that he thought revision Of the
banking system is the first ne
ceSsity.
Urging a new type of liquid
commercial banking, Vanderip
said:
"The banker was not a ras-
cal; he was ignorant Of the
science of banking"
He said the chief cause of
bank failures was loaning de-
mand deposit money for long
term investments.
Vanderlip proposed a new Fed
eral agency which would have
some of the functions of central
bank and take from the Federal
Reserve banks some Of the func-
tions they now have.
Suggests New Board
The new agency, to be called
the Federal Finance Authority,
would have the sole power to
issue currency without a fixed
legal minimum Of metallic reserve.
Vanderlip observed:
"'The Federal Reserve banks
would continue to operate along
the lines of the original inten-
ton of the Federal Reserve act;
that is, they should constitute q
central reservoir for holding the
reserve of member banks and
should always be in q position
to rediScOunt for members"
He proposed a new form OF
banking under which mutual COM
mercial banks would be created,
while the functions of commercial
and savings banks would be sepa-
rated.

State Officials Warn
 Public Of Fire Menace
Lighted Butts Dropped CarelessIy on State Highways
 Bon Fires, Seasonal Dangers

With trees along the highways in all parts of Connecticut starting to shed their leaves, Highway Commissioner John A. Macdonald today made two requests of the public of Connecticut: one to mo- torists urging them to use extreme care about throwing cigarets and cigars on the highway shoulders; and one to property owners, warn ing both against leaving bonfires of leaves unprotected and against building bonfires on the highway pavements.
 Fallen leaves become first class finder which is readily ignited when a lighted cigar or cigaret butt comes into contact with it and once a fire Is started it may quick ly lead to a confiagration that will destroy hundreds of acres of val- uable forest. Motorists using Con- necticut highways can materially aid in preventing the outbreak of costly forest fires and the destruc- tion of property by making certain that their smoking materials have been completely extfnguished be- fore tossing them from their cars.
 Property Owners Warned
 Property owners are in posi- tion to save their state money in the repair of highway pavements by refraining from building bon fires of leaves or other materials on the pavements. This is espe- cially true of the numerous bitu- minous pavements. since bonfiress built upon them cause oxidation or the material used in their construc- ton and this soon results in com plete disintegration and crumbling of the pavement. This condition is
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-09-11

not only costly to repair, but Is also likely to be the direct cause of motor vehicle accidents.
 There is great danger in the burning of dead leaves and brush on or near freshly oiled shoulders or dirt roads, since the oil may readily ignite and spread the blaze over a large area, inflicting seri- ous damage to buildings along the road.
 Fallen Leaves Menace
 As far as,possible. Commissioner Macdonald advises, the burning of leaves and rubbish should be done on ones own property and even then should not be attempted ex- cept in calm weather and unless someone is on hand to watch over the fire until 1t has completely died out. All bonfires should be extin- guished beyond any point of doubt with water or sand, thus prevent ing any danger of a later outbreak.
 Throughout the summer, the highway department has been talk ing precautions against the fall months with their falling leaves and dying vegetation. The shoul- ders along every highway right of way have been cleared to the great est extent possible by cutting down all underbrush and removing debris of all descriptions. This affords considerable protection against outbreaks of fire, but it is obvious ly impossible for the highway crews to keep pace with the falling leaves. Cooperation on the part of the public, however. will avert damage from this source the com missioner declares.

MUTUAL AID ASKS
 PLEDGE RENEWAL
Former Rate to Become Effective Monday--FERA Funds Sought

Because of the steady increase in expenditures of the Mutual Aid, a reinstatement of the original pledges was voted at the meeting of the committee yesterday. The new rate, amounting to l per cent of weekly income up to $50 and 3 per cent for incomes over that f1g- ure, will go into effect Monday.
 The balance of the fund is now only $17,900. There will also be efforts made to have state authori- ties increase the amount of the EZRA monthly grant. The EZRA bases it's allotment on the public welfare expenditures of the city government. not taking into con- sideration the workfi done by the Mutual Aid, with the result that the allowance for this city is the lowest per capita grant in the state.

HARRY HOPKINS
DENIES POLITICS
HAMPER RELIEF
FERA Chief, interviewed by
Magazine, Replies to
Queries.

A vigorous denial by Harry L.
Hopkins, federal emergency relief
administrator, that politics have
played any part in the distribution
of FERA funds is contained in an
interview with Mr.. Hopkins in the
current issue of the American Mag
azine, issued today.
Mr.. Hopkins, saying he had had
more trouble from "a few unScrupu-
lous business men" who had tried to
"gyp" the government in the sale
of food and other supplies, declared
that politicians were the least of his
worries and that F'ERA had done
nothing to strengthen political ma
chimes.
The interview. presented in ques-
ton and answer form, follows in
part:
Q-What is all this costing? What
does FERA pay out?
About $1OO,OOo,OOO a month,
exclusive of appropriations for
drought relief. The congress appro-
priated $525, 100000 for drought re-
lief at the last session.
Total Expended to Date
Q-How much have you, as FERA
head, spent since taking Office in
May, 1888?
About $1,85O,OO0,O 900. This in
cludes $5O0,000,OOO appropriated
when I took office, $400,000,000 for
the civil works administration made
available in November, 1888, and
$3.50 100000 authorized by congress
for the CWA and other relief work
in February, 1884.
CIT is hard to see the problem
in terms of billions and millions of
dollars. What does your relief pro-
gram mean to an average American
family-Say, of four people?
Am cold cash, about $23 a
month a family. Of course, it is
obviously impossible for a family to
live on $23 a month. Many of those
on relief have some other income.
Q--Is it true that the average
daily income of an individual from
relief is only so cents?
Ats less than that-about 20
cents. But I haven't much use for
these averages. They are dangerous.
Our relief is given on budgetary
basis to each family. One may need
only SIS a month, while another must
have $50 worth of relief.
Food, Clothing Supplied
ON addition to the cash pay
ments are food and clothing sup
piled?
Ayes. The point to remember
is that the FERA has never been
able to provide an adequate stand
ard of living. We provide a bare
minimum; protection against hun
ger and cold. Relief grants now are
substantially below anything save
a minimum. We try to see that
families have enough food, clothing
and medical attention.
