POUND IS TENDING
DOWN ON DOLLAR
Continued Drop Is Expected
to Force France to Quit
Gold Eventually.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

special DlSpatch 10 Tne Star.
NEW YORK, February Regard
less Of the decision of the United
States Supreme Court in the gold
clause cases and regardless of the
means that the administra ton may
take to Offset the effect of an adverse
judgment, the longer term trend of
the pound in terms of gold is not likely
to be reversed.
The chairman of the Westminster
Bank, in his address to the share
holders at the annual meeting in Lon
don this week. takes this position and
his view is upheld by the whole inter
national currency outlook. Affirming
that it would be mistake for Great
Britain to stabilize now, this bank
official predicts a continuing decline in
the gold value of sterling.
1t is admitted on all sides that, on
the basis of the trade situation, the
pound is overvalued in terms of the
dollar and undervalued in terms of
the franc, while both the pound and
the dollar are currently deprecated by
practically the same amount COM
pared with 1880.
If, then, the pound is too high
against the dollar, it is in the interest
of the British to let it seek a still
lower level and that seems to be their
intention. If this means increased
pressure on the franc, there is no help
for it.
The franc still has the gold value
that it had before Britain suspended
gold payments in 1891. It does not
seem that France can hold out in
definitely. In the end she must de-
preciate Just as We have done and as
Britain has done.
Undoubtedly the struggle will be
kept up as long as possible. but there
can be only one end to it. France
must either devalue at one blow or go
through period of preliminary sus-
pension of gold payments. That is
the logic of the situation, no matter
how distasteful it may be to France
and her associates in the gold bloc.

Greatest Crisis
Since Civil War
Seen for South
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DALLAS, Tex, February 1.-South-
ern cotton States are facing their
greatest crisis since the Civil War;"
the annual Arnold Institute of Public
Affairs was informed yesterday by
Peter Molyneaux. Southern economist,
who edits the Texas weekly.
This ruinous situation inherent in
the cotton crisis, results from the per-
sistence of the present administration,
as the Eoover administration, in fol-
lowing the traditional American
commercial policy based on the naive
assumption that foreign trade is not
a significant factor in our prosperity
as a Nation" he said.
Molyneaux, unlike other speakers,
did not concentrate his criticism on
the crop restriction program. He at
tributed the disastrous drop in world
purchases Of American-grown cotton
chiefly to what he called a recognition
by the rest Of the world that the
Roosevelt administration does not in
tend to depart from the traditional
American policy and hence necessary
capital. much of it American. is
now pouring into Brazilian and other
foreign cotton growing areas"

Percy Hubbard, Fairbanks aviator, passed through Juneau aboard the Yukon enroute to the States to visit the family of Arthur Hines, Hub bard's partner, who has been missing since the plane flown by Hines with three passengers aboard-Mr. arS Mrs. John Lonz and Alton Nordale-- left Dawson for Fairbanks on August 19.

 The search for Hines plane is still being carried on, Hubbard said, and will continue until the missing plane or a clue is found. Hope for the safe ty of the pilot and passengers has been lost. Hubbard said, but the search will not cease until definite ir- formation has been developed.

NEW MEMBERS
 ENLISTED IN
 SCOUT COURSE
Plans for M others Club M ade by Training g
 Course at Meeting

The Girl Scout Leaders Training Course, which met yesterday after noon at the Northern Light Presby- terian Church Parlors, claimed two new members: Mrs. O. A. Aasen, wife of the Rev. Aasen of Douglas, and Mrs Erling K. Olafson, wife of the pastor of the Resurrection Luth- eran Church in Juneau. Both Mrs. Aasen and Mrs. Olafson expressed a desire to affiliate young girls of their church with the Girl Scout Movement.
 Also in attendance at the meeting was Miss Jeanette Stewart, valu- able helper in Girl Scout work, who has spent the summer in Girl Scout camp in Oregon.
 The training class. under the di- rection of Miss Betty Schoettler, took up study of knot-tying and the parliamentary rules for control of club sessions.
 It is the purpose of the training class, which is open to everyone and to which no dues are paid, to help Gastineau Channel women to under stand and sympathize with the pur- pose and ideals of the Girl Scout Movement. So far, the response has been most gratifying and attendance very satisfactory.
 An executive meeting of the Girl Scout Committee was held previous ly to the training class. The forma- ton of Mothers Club, of which Mrs. c. E. Rice will be the head, was dizcussed. The club will be composed cf mothers whose daughters are n-embers of the Girl Scout Troop of Juneau.
 The Training Glass meets again next Wednesday afternoon at ? o'clock.

 m Ethiopian Wnr Crisis

PARIS. Oct 17-Unrest of many sorts is boiling up as parliamentary showdown approaches to bot her Epsm.eg Pierre Laval, already bur- dened with the problems arising from the Italian Ethiopian war. During the summer his wide de- cree powers enabled him to slave eff domestic worries. But soon he must answer many challenges.
 There are so many points in the eene-al discontent that nearly every p5litical group has a special grudge against the government. Laval him. self. before issuing his deflation de- orees. warned the country he expect cd every Frenchman to be discon- tented. but he said he would play no favorites and would hurt all alike.
 Six Main Problems ; war bad business, iascism, bud ret balancing, devaluation and the fprnn revolt are six main problems. fach of them is subject of acrid controversy.
 Lavals job of halting the Ethi- opian invasion without antagoniz- ing Mussolini, of upholding the League, yet retaining both British and Italian friendships, caused sharp division among the people Many were for allowing Italy to take Ethiopia just, as they said, Eng land and France had taken otheg fyllaaa cornt ies in the past. Others .jl1si ted eae League must remain a lallyinq point for a group of nations that would hold Germany in check.

Laval twas p.aiael for his political courage in } cutting salaries, rents and interest rates, but his opponents predicted failure of his effort to revive pros psrity through deflation.
 Budget Division Balances
 Budget balancing, attempted for five years, was taken out of the mysteries of high finance and brought home to the people when the general deflation touched most p1ck- ctboeks.
 Marcel Regnier, Minister of F1- nance, produced two budgets. One F slaled down to fit the governments newer and lower standard of living. The other. extraordinary budget, groups the several billions of extra expense previously charged to the treasury That was an easy way of presenting the national budget as apparently balanced.
