Foreign Money Ban
Legalized by Poland

WARSAW.-Poland has passed a
law prohibiting the use of foreign
currencies or the gold clause in in
ternal transactions. Henceforth all
domestic financial deals must be
stated in Polish zlotys, while old con-
tracts on which payments in foreign
currencies are required can be dis
charged in zlotys at the prevailing
rate. If such contracts contain the
so-called gold clause. the laws of the
country in whose currency the deed
is expressed Will determine the rate.
This means that gold dollar obliga-
tionS can be paid of at the ruling
rate Of $40 zlotys to the dollar in
stead of the former gold rate of 500
zlotys. This Law, however, deals only
with private business transactions.
The treasury and the state-owned
banks, the Bank Of Poland and the
Joint stock banks may continue to
transact business in foreign curren-
eleS without restraint Nor does the
new law affect in any way public or
Semi-public bond issues which have
been issued in foreign currencieS.

u. S. Courts May Become Slaves
Of New Deal to Save Blue Eagle

of last year. They were described as
emergency measures and Congress
enacted them in that spirit, with very
little debate, in some cases with sub
stantially no debate. in the House
especially. Many Republicans voted
for them. The N. R. A. statute be-
gins: "A national emergency is
hereby declared to exist
Then some nine months later we
were told by the President in his
speech before N. r. A. delegates on
March 5 that 'it must be perma-
nent" Again, in his book, "On Our
Way" published last Spring he said
History probably will record the
national industrial recovery act as
the most important and far-reaching
legislation ever enacted by the Amer
ican Congress; 1t represents supreme
effort to stabilize for all time. I"
Regardless of the merit of N R. A.
and the rest of the new deal, it is
incredible that we should adopt it
without discussion as an emergency
measure--and then without discus
sion permit it to become permanent.
This congressional campaign is the
time for the discussion, because
N. r. A. automatically comes to an
end on June Is next. Either the Con-
gress about to be elected in November
must re-enact it, or it must cease to
exist.
Democrats Attack.
The pity is that many of those who
could most ably and feelingly point
out the faults of N. R. A. as a perma-
nent form of society for America may
not feel free to do so. I doubt If the
best talent for arguing against
N. r. A. is in the Republican party.
The new deal runs even more strongly
against Democratic principles and
traditions than against Republican.
The best arguments I have seen
against the new deal have come from
the few Democrats who have been
sufficiently moved to speak against it:
Ex-Gov. Alfred E. Smith of New York,
Senator Harry F. Byrd of Virginia,
Senator Gore of Oklahoma, Balm
bridge Colby, who was Secretary of
State in the cabient of Woodrow Will
son: Democratic Chief Justice Pattan-
gall of Maine. the virile Democratic
Gov. Ely of Massachusetts,, who at the
Conference Of Governors, some 10 days
ago, was quoted as saying:
LAS an emergency measure in these
times N. r. A. is a perfectly good
piece of legislation, but I cannot see
the United States under a permanent
N. r. A. and still the Government we
have known and loved. There
is no stopping place for the Tightening
of the grip Of a paternalistic govern
ment except in a socialistic state"
And. finally, Senator Carter Glass
Of Virginia, who says.
The new deal is not only a mis-
take. it is a disgrace to the Nation.
and the time is not far distant when
we shall be ashamed Of having wan
dered so far from the dictates Of COM
mon sense and common honesty"
1t took courage for these Democrats
to say things like that. One feels re-
spect for them. Yet have they done
their full duty? Ought they not unite
with other Democrats who feel the
same, and see to it that Democrats
who are elected to Congress this Fall
shall be pledged TO be Democrats truly,
and not new dealers2

should bring their costs Of production
down to a competitive level. Mean
while the stimulus given to Japanese
exports by the depreciation OF the
yen-and such a stimulus is always
temporary-is already losing its. effect,
The cost of imported raw materials
has already risen there and domestic
costs will gradually rise also.
An effort should be made TO end
industrial subsidies everywhere. ship
ping among the rest. l hold the
view that all subsidized goods and
services should be penalized by the
other countries through countervail-
ing measures. With regard to false
trade marks, the japanese government
itself recently introduced bill TO
define unfair competition and to i'm
pose penalties for initiating trade
marks and for other such practices;
she recognizes that her own CONNER
cial prestige demands their suppress
sion. 1t is possible that an improve
ment may be effected in the wages
and working conditions of her opera
ton, both for the welfare of her pop
ulation at nome and in order to miti-s
gate the antagonism which has been
aroused abroad.
Agreement Not Impossible.
The discussions that recently took
place between representatives of the
cotton and rayon industries Of Eng
land and Japan, with a view to les
sening the severity of the competi-
tion, have led to no result. the jap
snese were ready to discuss only sales
in the markets of the British Empire;
the English held that negotiations so
restricted we're useless. The matter
is now being taken up automatically
between the two governments. II the
British government we're TO invite the
support and cooperation of the other
countries that are specially interested,
it would clearly be desirable to pro-
mote united action.
Ultimate agreement, though Diff
cult, is not impossible. Japan may
recognize that economic friction, con-
tinued too long. may lead to political
difficulties. The questions Of Map~
churia and Of disarmament have az
ready affected Japan's position in the
world adversely She may come 70
the conclusion that it would be ad-
visable TO seek to remove from the
possible causes Of friction an eco
nomic antagonism which is trouble
some already and might become a
grave embarrassment.

wages have to be higher, or else the

mental effects on the workers EN-
cheney. Thus the cost of production
is raised; the price for which the
articles can be sold is increased
Japan Is the gamer and at the enc
of the story the workers in Europe
find themselves unemployed.
Currency Plays Part.
There is yet another cause for the
recent Japanese success-the depre-
citation Of currency. This is often q
factor of even greater importance
than tariffs and quotas in the eco
nomic movements of today. In 1882
the exports of Japan received an i'm
mense impetus when she left the gold
standard. A great quantity Of raw
cotton had been bought abroad in
anticipation, when her currency, the
yen, was still at its full gold value
The products manufactured from ii
we're then sold for export after the
yen had deprecated by a third. The
Japanese merchants could afford To
lower prices in foreign markets by
one-third and yet receive the same
sum in their own currency
Further, the japanese subsidize
their shipping lines, so that the cost
Of carrying their manufactures is
artiflcially reduced below that of their
British and other competitors. There
also have been complaints that trade
marks and registered designs of firms
in other lands have been initiated.
1t is essential to examine the situa-
ton fairly and to separate the legiti-
mate and illegitimate factors in this
extensive Japanese competition. No
country has a right to complain II 1t
is beaten in trade through the better
organization, the higher education.
the greater energy and efficiency of
its rival. But it has a right to COM
plain II its defeat is due to a deliber-
ate depreciation in the value of cur
rency, to subsidies from public funds
or to imitation Of trade marks and
designs. It also has right to COM
plain If the working classes in the
competing country are kept at a lower
standard of living, and If its success
therefore means that more and more
people in the world will be finding
employment at that lower standard
and fewer and fewer at the higher
standard Such a tendency, spread
ing over the globe. would be an injury
to mankind as a whole
Where. then, are we TO find the
remedy2
First, the countries Of Europe can
not succeed unless they bring the or
ganization and technique Of their in
dustries to the highest point. They
must cease TO raise the cost Of living
Of their populations unnecessarily, by
systems Of protection-by tariffs and
quotas. It Is essential that they

ond proposition-that the present
system should be destroyed root and
branch-we run into trouble. The
only program offered Is collective
ownership. What is collective owner
ship? What will it produce? Who
will manage it? What distributive
system will be provided? What will
be the recompenSe Of labor? How
will consumption be regulated? Who
will get those products too limited in
supply for general distribution?
What will make men work under
this system?
These questions are not original.
They are old The point is that
they have never been answered in
theory or in practice. On them the
whole Socialist movement splits asun-
der. It is without a practical pro-
gram. 1t follows range from soap
box Communists to kid-glove poseurs
in government service. from vague
mystics advocating brotherly love to
wild-eyed fanatics who believe that
dynamiting Wall Street makes for
economic reform.
