What would happen to the SO in
Mr.. John Does pocket under President
Roosevelt's plans for devaluing the
dollar?
The answer, most experts agree, Is
virtually nothing at all for the present,
but any number of things in future.
As to the present. The $40 bill In
Mr.. Does pocket has been worth GER
tain weight in gold, but since abandon
ment of the gold standard he has not
been able to get that gold. The Presi-
dents plan would make it worth less
gold, and formally prohibit its exchange
for gold.
But. although the pile of gold behind
Mr.. Does $40 might be reduced in
height and placed beyond reach, the
bill in his pocket can still be handed
in for 10 one dollar bills, 40 quarters
or 100 dimes. That Is, II he wants to
carry that many.
Mr.. Does second immediate concern
is what will happen to prices. Nearly
all economists agree there will be at
least temporary price rise. But after
that opinion ranges from belief the rise
will be only short-lived to predictions
not only of a long-term rise, but also
new ability by the Government to
make prices stable.

Bids for the third purchase by the
Federal Surplus Relief Corporation of
smoked pork for needy unemployed will
be opened here next Monday.
The total number of hogs to be

ing prices, according to Harry L. Hop
kins, relief administrator. The hogs
will range from 100 to 200 pounds
each.

during the past few months. Although
the dollar has lost some 40 cents of it's
buying power since the Congress ad-
Journed in June, yet no one has noticed
any radical change in prices.
Under the policy outlined, only 10
cents additional is proposed to be taken
from the dollar: hence the carrying out
of such program will not be percepti-
bly, noticed In other words, the proc
ess of cheapening the dollar is already
80 per cent completed, and, with the
bird'S-eye picture of the adjustment
before us, only a few additional steps
are necessary when we will have our
monetary program practically ad-
juSted."

Thomas said a Treasury profit of
between $4,000, 900 900 and S4 500. OOO,-
600 from the taking over of all none
tary gold would go long way toward
meeting the existing deficit and pro-
Vlding funds for carrying on our public

The development of the whole pro-
gram. he added would mean "a slight
reduction in the value or buying power
of our dollars" but it was not con-
templated that this reduction would be
excessive"

mon consent, set as the goal" he con-
tinued. AT that time wheat sold for
81. a buShel and cotton for 20 cents

prices are necessary to permit agricul-
ture to survive and meet its obligations,

He said the owners of bank deposits
and of fixed investments. such as bonds,
notes and mortgages, will suffer only
slight loss through the decreased buy
ing power of the dollar. yet such ad-
justment will, in my opinion, result in
restoring salaries and wages to the price
level in existence during 1926" Thomas
added:
THE changes in prospect will come
gradually and will probably not be as

When the Goodyear test cars had finally put "G-3'
All-Weathers through "the works." we felt sure
we had tire to meet these new requirements We
knew that again Goodyear had been first to see a
tire need, and first to answer it.
But, we wanted to be sure. So, we built "G-3''
tires in few sizes and sent them out to Goodyear
Dealers. Soon, the performance detectives" re-
ported: "Some Goodyear sizes giving best tread
uear ever seen.
And those sizes were the ner "G.3,s"!
Evening star., 1934-05-13

When you examine "G-3,' ~ the new Goodyear ALL
Weather Tread Tire, it may appear familiar. 1t has
the famous Goodyear non-skid blocks, and keeps
them the middle of the tread where they haze to be
for traction and safety under modern dr1ping conditions
Other tire.makers may take the easy way out and
replace grb in the center with smooth running
but Goodyear refuses to sacrifice safety.
So the "G-3'' has I6's more of these blocks! More
traction more safety.
The ridng-ribs are wider - 11l29o wider! Grooves
are narrower. Blocks and ribs nested closer, thus
reducing "Squirmins'' of the tread pattern under
pressure and SO reducing wear.
1t is wider tread-a fatter tread-a tread with
more rubber in it. More contact, more grip. Being
wider and heavier puts added strain on sidewalks,
and there Goodyear was prepared. The long
famous, superlative SUPERTWIST carcass, extra
durable and extra-elastic, handles this extra strain
easily and safely. No other tire-maker has Super
twist. 1t is protected by Goodyear patents. Now,
Supertwist delivers the full service that only
Supertwist can give.
Evening star., 1934-05-13

The new, fasf-sbrinting. qnick-sfobbing. higher
bowered and eay-brakins automobiles use up tire
treads faster! Imbroved automobiles had put an
increasingly sepere burden tires and it pas ap to
tire makers to meet the snafion since tires that keeb
their grip are more important on smooth, high
speed super r-highways and crowded boulevards
than they have ever been before.

Better Tire-No Extra Price

A tougher tread, a lonser-wearing tread, safer
tread, carcass full of reserve strength Sure, the
new Goodyear "G-3' is the tire that matches up
with the improved motor cars.
See the new "G-3" All Weather at the nearest
Goodyear Dealer. The tire that was originated in
a mystery, became marvel, and although it
costs more to build costs nothing extra to buy!
