New Money GeiM Sun Roosevelt Silver Mes sage Believed To Bold Out Offer of Discus sion Washington, May 24.?The pros pect of a new international monetary discussion projected today from the administration silver program. Hid den in President Roosevelt's silver message to Congress was a subtle invitation for nations plagued by money troubles to seek silver as a solution to their problems. Natimm were not named, but there was an intimation that Mr. Roosevelt had' Britain, Germany, Japan and other nations in mind when he said: "The ebb and' flow of values in al most all parts of the world created many, points of pressure for re-ad-, justment of internal and enterna tional standards." Administration quarters paid hut slight heed to reports from London that '.financial .circles are alarmed lest the Roosevelt silver elevation plan hamper Britain's return to the gold standard.

Grow Work Stock On Home Farm North Carolina fanners bought heavily of mules this year and though the number of horses decreased by. 2,000 head, the number of mules, in creased by 3,000 head, leaving a -gain of 1,000 head of workstock for - the State. "Unfortunately," says Earl. EL; Hostetler, in charge of livestock re search for the North Carolina Ex periment Station, "this gain was made by sending money out of the State and with the present price of mules, the money spent for only one pair is often more clear cash than the owner makes on his farm in one year. The way to stop this steady drain on the State's farm resources is to grow the workstock at home. The animals so grown will furnish a . home market for grain, roughage And pasture and may be grown with lit tle trouble or expense." Hosteder points out that the State must have mares before it can. have mules. A majority of the mares Are now over 10 years old which makes breeding very doubtful and if grow ers could get in a few young maree which might be bred and thus build up the horse population, the breeding of mules can follow successfully. "Colts are not difficult to raise. If they are foaled in the early spring their mothers can do fuU time work, on the farm. In. fact, the mare And colt both will thrive, better u&ape the mother gets plenty cef exatrise," Hostetler says. He declares that piniam ia.jp inline necessity in growing colts ^amd this seems to have been over-tooked id the past Both horses and main need a full ration: of grain am} good roughage,dnpfeg the ? set. awmnp On idle days, they may be turned-in to the pasture and the grata nation, lightened. ..

The President has told inquirer's he is keeping an open mind on just how far the government, should go a year hence in seeing a permanent agreement between the government and industry and labor. He planned to survey the result in his tour across the country this sum mer. In the meantime he intends to stand pat on the general princi ples of the National Recovery Ad ministration. New legislation would be necessary to carry on the NRA in its present form /- mid-June next year. Any such action would be handed to the next Congress. The opposition faction on Capitol Hill showed no signs today of relax ing its criticisms. There were signs today that Presi dent Roosevelt might take a definite hand soon to cut through the criti cism of NRA workers which the Dar row board of condemnation intensi fied. It appeared probable that he would first let the immediate hullaboioo subside and swing into definite lines and allow re visionary policies with in the NRA to be perfected.
