CHEAPER MONEY
FIGHT IS PRESSED
Conference Adopts Eight
Point Program for
Various Reforms.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
After packing eight proposals for
monetary reform into one omnibus
infiationists and expansion
lists moved on Congress today with
demands for cheaper dollars and more
of them.
Adopted yesterday at q conference
called by Senator Thomas, Democrat,
Of Oklahoma. the demands included
payment Of the bonus with new cur
rency and a central bank to control
money, trim its value "at least" to
the 1925 level and hold it there.
Meanwhile, the Capital. noting that
world markets were less nervous yes
terday over the forthcoming gold
clause" decision. continued to specu-
late as to whether the administra-
ton was considering a plan of action
in case the Supreme Courts verdict
goes against the Government.
Conference Held.
Secretary Morgenthau and the
Treasury's counsel, Herman Oliphant,
consulted yesterday with Attorney
General Cummings, but the subject
of the talk was not disclosed. OBJ
servers recalled that it was Oliphant
who drew the resolution abrogating
the gold clause"
Thomas had declared yesterday s
meeting Of monetary reformers, most
Of them advocates Of imitation, was
to prove expansionists could agree on
program.
Delegates packed the Senate Agri-
culture Committee room from the
mirror-bedecked fireplace to farthest
walls, each spokesman cheering his
fellows proposals. All Joined in ap-
plauding Father Charles E. Coughlin
Of Detroit, who attacked bankers and
asked central bank.
The eight-point program included
/. Conversion of the Federal Re-
serve Bank into a new Government
owned bank in control Of currency
credits and demand deposits, with a
first duty Of paying of depositors Of
banks closed since January 1, 1890.
2. Creation Of q sound and ade-
quate currency" Immediately by de-
taching the dollar from gold and by
remonetization Of silver.
3. Issuance Of currency solely by the
central bank.
4. Payment of the bonus by lega
tender notes.
S. Termination Of public borrowing
by the Government and adoption ol
q policy Of issuing non-interest bearing
notes "retireable when necessary, BY
taxation"
6. Retirement Of present Govern.
ment obligations when due by new
currency.
Z. Return Of the purchasing value
Of the dollar to level "at least" a
low as in 1925.
&. A congressional investigation tc
find the holders of all Government
obligations with the object Of de-
termining and disclosing potential
enemies Of this Nation here and
abroad"
Senator Thomas told q dinner gath
ering Of members Of the conference
last night that the days developments
had entirely disproved the contention
Of opponents Of monetary reform that
the various groups represented could
not get together. He said the organt-
cations represented had membership
which made them spokesmen for Is
million citizens.

What's What
Behind News
In Capital
High Court Is Expected
to validate Gold Pay
ment Abroad.
BY PAUL MALLON.

BY PAUL MALLON.
- ONE of the wisest political
lawyers here have the gold
case all figured out now.
- They are expecting a Supreme
Court decision validating the
gold abrogation domestically, but in
validating it internationally. This
means the court would say domestic
bondholders may be paid in currency.
but foreign holders Of American gold
bonds must be paid in gold.
Certain Of the most prominent con-
stitutional authorities seem to be SO
sure Of this that they are willing to
bet their aged right arms on it. They
reason thus:
The gold abrogation made little ac-
tual difference to Americans. The
only ones who really suffered were the
foreign holders of American bonds.
They must take the loss from resultant
depreciation of exchange, which Is
the full loss from dollar devalution.
That the court is thinking along
these lines is epident from Ques-
tion asked by Chief Justice Hughes
and the additional fact that the
court called for the World Court
decision in the Brazilian bond case.
1t is true the Brazilian case is not
a deadly parallel, but, nevertheless,
in that decision the World Court
ordered payment OF foreign bond
holders in gold.
Seen as Best Way Out.
Such a decision would settle the
whole matter with the least possible
injustice and trouble. 1t would cost
the United States Government only
about s4O,0OO,000 to $60,000,000 to
pay off foreigners in gold. They are
the only ones who could keep the gold
anyway, in view of our domestic anti
boarding act.

Some few feelers toward q filibuster
have been put forward by munitions
investigators. They are merely trying
to get Mr.. Roosevelt to give them
100000 instead Of $50,000 for con-
tinuing their inquiry. There will be
no open filibuster against the court
as such because johnson and Borah
cannot rally third of the Senate,

Coal Board Changes Front.

Something happened on the inside
to make the Coal Industry Board
change its mind within "a hours re-
garding Government price fixing. One
day recently it voted to accept price,
fixing by the Government. Later it
had conference with q large shaggy
haired man who looked very much
like John L. Lewis, president of the
United Mine Workers. Thereafter.
next day, it voted against Government
price regulation.
Coal experts Uill be surprised "
there Uas not an understanding
reached Whereby the industry &C.
cepts labor members on the board
In return for support by labor In
the price, firing matter. The coal
tnduStrys contracts tDith the unions
expire April I, which also may
haze had something to do ipith It.
Twelve men In the N. r. A. are
drawing salaries of $4,000 a year. One
highly placed N. r. A.'er has informed
his associates that a year ago he was
literally digging bitches. That shows
the progress q man can make in
Government service, by perseverance
and hard work, especially If he knows
the right people.
Mississippi Congressman have heard
that Interior Secretary Ickes intends
to get rid of a Virgin Islands Judge,
who happens to be q Mississippian
As result, you may see shortly q
resolution introduced in Congress for
an investigation Of conditions In the
Virgin Islands.
The Securities and Exchange Com
mission has practically q fire alarm
system for summoning meetings Of
commissioners. Two sharp rings on q
buzzer attached to each commis-
sioner's desk mean they must come
at once. II they do not show up
promptly, a second alarm is sounded.
Meetings always assemble within i've
minutes.

Irish Rent Strike Alarms.

Growth Of the mo rent" campaign
in Belfast, Northern Ireland, is alarm
ing landlords Of subsidy houses. The
drive was started in the Falls Road
district, and has spread rapidly. Fol-
lowing a strike against alleged exoroi-
tant rents, local Catholic clergymen
intervened, and as a result several
landlords made reductions. Since
then the movement has grown and
tenants of houses in Donegal Road
district have now taken up the mo
rent" agitation. Gables Of houses and
pavements in the streets affected have
painted slogans reading PAY no
rents" and similar messages. Several
meetings have been held, with the
result that recent collectors have been
turned from nearly every door. Some

a few days before I had run across
him in Paris. 1t had been three years
since we had last seen each other.
For some time now he had been
writing a bit Of fiction. He and
Sheila Denisse had married and noWk
she was writing, too. She had taken
it up only recently and was already
making more than he was himself.
Sitting in that garden on the side
of the hill with its fruit trees spread
against the warm wall at my back
and the roses running In a riot over
the terrace stones at my feet, pom
dered upon Sheila's writings. Why
this vivid coloring in her tales about
the handsome young married cou-
ple"? 1t was all overdone. To live
as Sheila did in the midst Of saffron
and amethyst, of blue haze and pur-
pie vineyard, and to take from 1t
group of characters as raw as the
greens and reds of a modernist's paint

tell me; and perceived that had
touched upon a point still sensitive
from recent wounds. He turned upon
me dark, unhappy eyes.
"The fact of the matter Is that she
sells her tales, and I don't sell mine.
Without them we could not remain
even here There was a short pause,
and then he added with clenched
teeth: But swear I'll be a waiter
in a New York hotel before I'll sign
my name TO the sort Of thing that is
getting over now. Sheila can do 1t
if she sees fit"
Nothing wrong with your stuff" I
told him. Go on writing it. Don't
try to adjust yourself to the times.
The times will come around TO you
some day. You've something dark
and warm and living in your work.
Go on"
He gave me a strange stare. go
on, and let Sheila support me with
her sort of stuff? No, thank you"
so what I say is," Sheila was
saying, "as one has got to live, there's
no good being squeamish. If you go
into IS editions with young ladies OF
questionable status and the men who
pay their bills, why not do 1t, unless
you are independent and can write
what you please and tell creditors and
editors to go to the devil? It's COM
mon sense. But Earl can't see it . 9.
What's the good Of doing beautiful
stuff like that If no one will ever
buy it?"
