eliminate.
DY WAY of summary an
ID evaluation Of the two plans
must consider both their po-
ltical and economic aspects.
From a political point of view.
nations viii have TO decide
whether and 10 what extent
they wish their financial and
economic policies 10 be subject
To international control, whether
and TO what extent they wish
the decisions for international
boards 10 be substituted for the
free competitive forces OF the
market place.
From an economic point OF
view. decision Will have TO be
reached concerning the poSSi-
bility of stahlizing foreign eX-
change rates before internal in
nation is checked. and concern
ing the bearing of either plan on
foreign exchange and trade con-
troiS.
IN CONCLUSION l would like
Il 10 suggest as an alternative
10 the two plans proposed IN
tentative form by the American
and BritiSh-oXperts that A free
dollar be established in the
postwar world.
At the end Of the war. this
country can render its greatest
contribution 10 world recovery
by checking domestic infla-
tionary forces. by resuming gold
payments. and by removing all
foreign exchange controls.
If these policies were fol-
lowed. the dollar would con-
Stitute a sure anchorage for the
currencleS of other nations apd
would become a generally aC-
cepted international medium Of
exchange. A international
transactions. including those of
bilateral or multilateral
character, including the expor-
tation or importation Of goods.
including short-or long term
capital movements, could be
cleared on the basis OF dol
lar freely redeemable in gold
and freed of foreign exchange
controls.
An important step toward the
establishment Of such a cur
rency has already been taken
by Congress in its refusal 10 pro-
long the power Of the President
10 devalue the dollar further.
The sumption of inter-
national financial responsibilities
means that we must be prepared
10 make corresponding ADJUST
ments in our trade policies.
Through a renewal Of the re-
ciprocal trade agreements act.
we now have an opportunity TO
give tangible proof to the rest
Of the world that we are pre-
pared 10 make further down.
ward revisionS in trade barriers.
The reintroduction of a fully
functionlng gold standard and
continued adherence TO liberal
trade policies. will make IN inn
pOrtant contribution 10 postwar
economic recovery, and will COM
bne TO put into practical opera
tion the principles OF the At
lantic Charter.

EDITORS NOTE-FoHow-
ing is the final instaiment of
an address delivered by Win
throp w. Aidrieh, Chairman
of the board of the Chase
National Bank of NeW York.
at the international luncheon
of the War council of the
United States, in hew York.
OUCH in brief is the general
~ outline of the two plans.
1t Will be noted that they COM
prise three essentially different
elements and, in this respect.
they differ from the detectives
and scope of the national stabi-
lization funds that came into
existence some 10 years ago
The three elements are pro-
vision for the Sterilization of
currencfes, provision for the eX-
tension of foreign credits. and
provision for the influencing or
controlling of the dom I C
financial and economic policies
of member nations.
1t is questionable whether
three such diverse detectives
should be incorporated in one
plan. For example, it would
seem the better policy TO sepa-
rate the function of currency
sterilization from that of for
eign lending.
The credit extensions TO be
granted under either the Ameri-
can or British plans would tend
inevitably TO become long-term
in character, and credit extern
sionS of this character should be
handled by other agencies.
The only loans that should
properly be granted by an inter-
national Sterilization fund, if
one were TO be established.
would be those designed to
eliminate seasonal fluctuations
in exchange rates. Longer term
credits should be handled by
banking institutions of an in
vestment character.
TN A general evaluation OF
Il these two proposals, several
questions, its seems TO me. must
be borne in mind. The first is
whether, from a political point
of view, nations are likely to
subscribe 10 this method of
handling the problem of none
tary sterilization; secon d..
whether, from an economic point
of view, an overall sterilization
of the currencies can precede
internal credit and monetary
sterilization; and third, whether
some alternative plan might not
represent more practical and
realistic solution 10 the prob
lem of postwar monetary sta
biIity.
The first point 10 be consid-
cred in connection with an
evaluation of the plans has 10 do
with the willingness OF nations
TO part with their sovereign
rights 10 the extent contem-
plated. Both plans presuppose a
considerable degree of control
over domestic monetary and
economic policies.
Thus. in the American plan.
nations are TO maintain eX-
change rates established by the
fund and not 10 alter these rates
without the consent Of the fund.
Once exchange rates have been
established the British plan pro-
vides that alterations may not
occur subsequently without the
permission of the governing
board.
Again. in the American plan,
each member nation agrees that
il will offer TO sell to the fund
all foreign exchange and gold
that il acquires in excess OF the
amount il possessed Immediately
after Joining the fund, and each
member nation agrees 10 dis
courage the unnecessary accu-
mutation Of foreign balances by
its nationals.
IMPLIED in both plans is the
