Way Clear for Inflation Ordinarily we think of the value of the dollar as represent ing the value of so many grains of gold. From now on the value of the dollar is divorced' from the value of gold and in conse quence will respond to a differ ent master.

Kyser is a native of North Carolina and a graduate of this University, as are many of the other members of his orchestra and the orchestra was originally orsranized here. Eight of the members of the original band are still with it, and the occa sion will be something in the nature of a homecoming tor them. Left Four Years Ago Since leaving the University four years ago, the orchestra has filled a great many impor tant engagements all over the country. Included among the places at which they have played are the following: New Yorker Hotel; Gibson Hotel, Cincinnati; St. Paul Hotel, St. Paul; Baker Hotel, Dallas; RKO theatres (26 weeks) ; College Inn, Cleveland. The group has frequently broad cast over the Columbia and NBC radio chains. This will be the first time that Kyser's orchestra nas played here since the time of Kay's graduation. He will be remembered very favorably here as the organizer of the famed "Cheerios." In coming here to furnish the music for the dance set he follows Don Bestor, who played here last year. In this outlook there is no need for alarm. The federal administration is well aware of the dangers of inflation, and if that device is resorted to it will be done with definite limitations in mind. If inflation goes no further than the restoration of prices to the 1926 level, it will prove to be a great blessing. Once more the farmers will be able to sell their products at a (Continued on page two) The twenty-first annual con- sentative; Carl Dupree, sopho- vention of the North Carolina mnro vonroconf a five Tnlia "M"p- MiVbapl from t.rm law sr-.hool : mi 1 . . . i 1 ' xixcxre w& px umiae which tOOK place at UreenSDOrO, ric Fl Amino-, frnm i medical in .n,'nv 'Unl.ff 4-n I .1.1 I muugu tu xaiac me vxxc-naii. came to a close yesteraay. school: and R.

Business Leaders Of State Back Steps To Solve Financial Mix-Up Mercantile and financial lead ers of the state squarely support President Roosevelt's recent twin steps toward solving the in ternational financial tangle and the dangerous problem of na tional currency. From their re plies to questions sent them by the editor of the Daily Tar Heel on the advisability of in flation and the abandonment of the gold standard, outstanding figures in. state finance and in dustry, such as A. J. Maxwell, Kemp P. Lewis, and Henry Burke, favor these measures and expect successful results. The scope of the messages well indicates that the state is in ac cord with the Roosevelt policies. Interspersed with general praise and hope were subtle warnings to the effect that in flation might prove nothing more than an ephemeral remedy, the after effects of which might well be more disastrous than the present depression. The many European countries which have unsuccessfully tried inflation were cited. However, although many men showed concern over the possibility of controlling in flation, virtually all comments completely endorsed the admin istration's action on the gold standard. and M. H.
