GOLD IMPORTS
SHAKE WORLD
MONEY PLANS

Big scale resumption Of the In
ward gold flow following the tri-
power currency and gold agree
ments is threatening the move
ment toward world monetary
sterilization and this Govern
ment's credit control program,
Government fiscal expert disclosed
today.
About SO million dollars in
gold has come to this country
since the United States, France
and England agreed on october
13 to confine international trans
actions in the metal to oper-
atoms of their currency equaliza-
ton funds.
This movement is contrary to
the effect Treasury officials ex-
pected to result from the agree
mentS. Secretary Morgenthau said
yesterday he would withhold dis
cussion of the new situation until
after next Tuesdays elections.
Following the gold-currency &C
cords, an outward flow OF gold
to France, England and other
European countries had been an
ticipated.
Despite earmarking Of nearly
10 millions of the metal for
China, the Treasury's gold hoard
has bounded from 10,985 mil
lions, the day the gold accord
was announced, to 11,028 mil
lions yesterday, a new high rec
ord. Other shipments are en-
route.
Officials attributed the renewed
inflow of the war scare brought
on by the Soviet government.
They frankly admitted that
Frenchmen having outside gold
boards had been reluctant to
repatriate their gold, because OF
the Socialist government now in
control"
The continued influx of gold,
meantime, has compelled the
Federal Reserve Board to renew
it's study of what to do about
the mounting excess reserves
held by member banks.
It may be forced again to In
crease the amount of required
reserves, which were raised SO
per cent on August IS. This re
duced the excess reserves OF
member banks from $500 mil
lions to 100 millions.

The Washington times., 1936-10-30

tration over the actual vote of
four years ago approximates 49,
100000. The number of actual
votes this year over 1892 is esti-
mated at something more than
100000.
If the politicians could put their
finger on these 100000 addi-
tional voters and feel confident
of where they are going they
would breathe a good deal easier.
Increases in registration and in
actual voting are quadrennial &C.
currences-but by no such figures
as are indicated for this election.
Both sides. naturally, manage to
extract some satisfaction from
this new vote. A considerable por-
ton of it inevitably represents
brand new voters, those who have
reached voting age since 1882.
The Democrats claim a majority
of the young voters IS certainly
theirs. Their confidence in this
respect is born of what the New
Deal has done for young people
the CCC camps, the assistance
rendered youngsters in getting to
college by the National Youth
Movement, relief to parents, etc.
See Protest Vote
On the other hand, the Repub-
licans insist that much of this
greatly increased registration is
due to become "a protest vote"
a protest against the New Deal,
it's spending, it's experiments, its
various forays into new and un-
tried fields of overnm en- t.
Usually in the past, the Repub-
licans say, increased registration
has meant people coming out to
oppose those in power, those who
are "agin' the ms"
The increases in registration are
most marked in the great popu-
lous centers Of the country. ILL
nois, for example, has more than
a million increased registrations.
Pennsylvania has 100000 more
people who have indicated they
intend to vote this year than voted
four years ago. New York's regis
tration is up more than 100000,
Ohio's more than 100000, Michi-
gan's more than 600,000-and so
it goes.
The estimated 5000 900 increase
in actual voters conceivably could
determine the election. Where
they are going the pouticos don't
know. They can only wait-and
hope.

STEEL OUTPUT
SHOWS SLIGHT
DECLINE

Steel irlgot production has de-
clined slightly this week. from 70
to II per cent, but the change is
accounted for mainly by the shut
ting down for a weeks vacation
of two plants in the Pittsburgh
district, which brings the rate
down there from SO to 65 per cent.
There has also been a two-point
drop in the Cleveland-Lorain area,
but at Wheeling and in the Val
leys output is moderately higher
and elsewhere is virtually un-
changed.
While the volume of new busi-
ness in some products has de-
clined at a few mills, this is by
no means the general experience.
as a brisk demand exists, partic-
ularly for sheets, bars anad struc'
tural steel. that is keeping backlogs
almost even with shipments,
Sheet makers could easily book
business for delivery in October
we're they inclined to do so, but
the possibility of price advances
for fourth quarter makes this in
advisable. Galvanized sheets are
almost unobtainable in less than
six to eight weeks; if deliveries ex'
tend into the fourth quarter the
price then in effect probably will
apply.
1t. is a sellers market in every
sense of the word. A month ago
steel companies were concerned
as to whether steel production
could be maintained at an undl"
minished rate through August.
Now it appears almost certain
that there will be no important
letdown even in September. Pur'
chasing of steel by automobile
companies for 1887, which is now
beginning to appear in fairly
good volume, will fill up what
ever gaps might otherwise occur
in rolling mill schedules next
month, while in sheets an even
lighter situation than now exists
may be expected if motor car
companies demand quick deliv'
cries.
The pressure of steel mills to
get out tonnage rapidly enough
to satisfy insistent consumer
needs is reflected in the scrap
market, where sharp advances
have occurred in all important
centerS. No. l heavy melting
steel is 81 higher at Philadelphia.
IS cents at Chicago and Is cents
at Pittsburgh, resulting in an in
crease in The Iron Age composite
price to $1492, the highest since
February 10, 1880. Heavy ex-
ports of scrap. which last year
amounted to 2,140,000 tons, and
in the first half of 1886 to 1,l18,-
676 tons, are believed to have
created a shortage that may
force prices even higher.
Along with current strong de-
mand for steel, prospects are de-
veloping that promise well Tor
fall Shipbuilding appears to be
on the verge of a healthy revival.
More private work is appearing
in the construction field and rail-
roads are considering further
purchases of rails, track supplies
and rolling stock. One large
road is obtaining preliminary fig
ures on 35 to so heavy locomo"
tives. Some Western roads have
decided to lay rails they have
had in stock, which indicates the
possibility of supplementary rail
buying this fall.

NEW YORK, Aug. IL GN.S).
Although trading slowed down ap-
preciably about noon. the stock
market continued generally firm
under the lead of liquors, steels
and motors today.
Schenley led liquor shares, run
ming up nearly 2 points to 421a.
American Commercial Alcohol and
National DiStillers each rose more

Short-covering was a factor in a
point rise for ChrySler, the stock
being scheduled to sell ex-dividend
81 a share tomorrow. General

Nash hit a new low for the year
on further liquidation.
In rail equipments, Pullman
climbed into new high ground for
the year, while American Loco
motive jumped more than a point.
Farm implements, amusementS,
particularly Loew's, merchandise

COTTON PRICES
OPEN STEADY

NEW YORK, August IL G.N.SO.
Cotton prices continued to main
tain steady levels during late
forenoon dealings, with trading
in moderate volume. Today'S
Steadiness was attributed to bull
lish weather reports.
Demand came from brokers
with Far Eastern connections,
the Continent, professionals, and
Wall Street, while the staple was
supplied by the South, spot
houses, and New Orleans. For the
past few days reports of abnor-
NAL temperatures in Oklahoma,
Texas and Arkansas lifted prices
from lows, made during recent
liquidation and brought on by the
high crop figure. Accentuating
bullish sentiment were reports Of
too much precipitation in parts
of the Eastern belt.
October was quoted at 11.80, up
3; December, 11.83, up 3; March,
1892, up 6, and May, 11.93, up 4.

L. Plan to use plenty of nitrogen an
der cotton. When purchasing COM
plete fertilizer insist on having at least
four to six per cent of this element in it.
2. Provide the seed supply immed-
lately, both for garden and field, and
buy the best. Such seed are invariably
the cheapest in the long run.
3. Let nothing interfere scith ploso1ng
on days when the ground is dry enough
to be stirred. The better the prepare
ton before planting the less cultivation
will be needed later, and crops will grow
off quicker and better.
A. Sozu iesbedeza on top Of small
grain and turn the land over to this crop
for two or three years. This will give
some good hay and greatly increase the
fertility of the land.
5. Begin the fight on the boil zUeeUH
now by thoroughly preparing the soil.
Then fertilize we'll and plant as early as
weather conditions will permit, and fol-
low with good cultivation in spring and
summer.
6. Resolve not to burn cotton or corn
stalks. They are too valuable to destroy.
Cut them to pieces now so they will rot
and be out of the way of cultivation this
spring and summer.
Z. Top dress oats and other small
grain noaU, using 100 to $50 pounds of
nitrate of soda, sulphate of ammonia, or
some of the synthetic nitrogens. Usually
100 pounds of either of these materials
will increase the oat yield IS or 20
bushels per acre.

and may be sowed on lots of small grains
now. If sowed alone, then disk or plow
the land and sow the seed broadcast. For
hay sow Tennessee 70 or Kobe lespedeza

The proper location and management
of tobacco plant beds is an important
factor in the control of downy mildew,
or blue mold.
Each year, says Luther Shaw, extern
sion plant pathologist at the North
Carolina State College, the beds should
be located in new place to prevent in
lection from disease organisms left in the
soil by previous crops.
Numbers Provide Safety
Several small beds widely separated
on the farm are better than one large
bed, he added, as they give better
place with a southern or southeastern ex-
posture rather than a northern or north
western exposure, Shaw advised.
Fertilize the soil in North Carolina
with 200 pounds of an 8-4-3 mixture fo-
each 100 square yards of plant bed. Do
not place on the beds any tobacco trash
or manure containing tobacco leaves,
stalks, or roots, as they may infect the
soil with mosaic, black root rot, or
Granville wilt:

Location
Aids Mold Control
Several Beds Better Than One, Overry0z0dIne
AOoided BY Lighter Seeding

Locate the beds in a warm, sur,r:y
chance for some of the plants to escape
blue mold infection.
One TeaspoonfuI Enough
Do not seed the beds too heavily, as
this will cause the plants to be over
crowded. One teaspoonful of cleaned
seed is enough for 100 square Yards OF
bed.
Crowded plants remain moist for
considerable time after dews and rains,
Shaw explained, and thus make condi-
tons favorable for the development of
blue mold.
If blue mold appears on the plants,
remove the cover of the plant bed during
the day to admit sunlight and air a,
soon as the weather will permit. Light
applications of quick-acting nitrogen will
often hasten recovery from blue mold.
Pull only healthy plants for trans
planting. Plants which have recovered
from blue mold are safe, but those which
are just beginning to show the disease
should not be transplanted.

The 4cye Thief
How to Control Them

and top.
The reason for seeding the area and
planting it to trees is to get ground
cover established, since this will help hold
the soil from washing away. The area
is covered with light mulch as in the
other case. This tends to protect the
seeding and seedlings from severe eli
matte changes which may be detrimental
to them.
GulLies from ten to thirty feet in
depth: Use treatment similar to the one
above, although it may be advisable to
use dynamite iii some cases in sloping
and it may be necessary to build log or
rock dams in place of the brush dams.
Vines such as kudzu and honeysuckle
may be used on the steep vertical banks.
Vines should not be used OH areas with
trees for eventually the vines will kill
the trees.
.Gullies thirty 10 forty feet: Such
badly eroded land can never be returned
to cultivation. The best thing to do is
to get permanent growth of timber on
such land.

DOINTING out that various meth
DDS are required in the control OF
- the different types of gullies, Off
Gals of the Soil Conservation Service III
the southern states have issued these
recommendations
For the small shalloar type Of gulley:
This is form of sheet erosion which
can be controlled very simply. Work
the ground thoroughly either by a plough
or disk. Seed to lespedeza in the early
spring and then mulch lightly with
broom sedge, hay, leaf litter or some
such material. Strips of sod may be
used in shallow gullieS.
Gullies from fwo to eight feet in
debfh: Build small brush check dams at
intervals in the channels of such big gull
lies. This slows up the water and re-
suits in soil particles being lodged in the
brush, tending to form solid bank of
soil behind each brush dam. In early
spring seed the area to lespedeza and
later on plant to trees. Plant yellow
poplar or catalpa in the richer soil be-
hind the brush dams, and black locust
and short or loblolly pine on the sides
