-'Kj THE BURNSVILLE EAGLE News Review of Current Events the World Over War Debts Injected in World Conference—Britain Pays Installment of Ten Millions—Final Doings of Congress Before Adjournment. By EDWARD W. PICKARD . Eastman Ramsay MacDonald p AMSAY MAC DONALD threw a fair-sized moiikey wrench into the London economic conference machin ery In his opening speech, but the wheels hadn't really begun to revolve, so the niechiinlsm was not wrecked immedi ately. Whether it is ultimately to operate successfully depends on diplomatic skill or on the complais ance of Uncle Sam, In the middle of an otherwise well-or dered address, the British priiBie minis ter suddenly inter jected the war debts issue, despite the fact that it was not on tlie agenda of the conference. That diiestion, he de clared, "must be dealt with before every obstacle to general recovery has been removed, and it must be taken up without delay by the nations con cerned. Lausanne has to be complet ed and this vexed question settled once for all In the light of present world ' conditions.” Delegates from all parts of the Brit ish empire and possibly those from France were not surprised by Mac Donald’s action, but Secretary Hull and his brother delegates from the ■^Tnited States did not attempt to con sul their disp!ea.sure witii what they ^^^i'^ered at least a display of poor taste phonic'''-with Wasliing- ton ani^^ ^ result his address to a, ’ “perence which was to open the second P®®'' poned Among the other speakers of aat day, Guido Jung of Italy South backed . ►'OtileH' '.efgovernmental debts arlsin; ^:rom the war.

Jan Christiai Africa, both I MacDona'^js ning to evade payment of the great er part of the Installments due the United States on .June 15, and France was calmly ignoring the fact that she also was due to make a payment on that date, her government being determined to do nothing about it. The British offered to pay SIO,000.000 of the .?7!),050,000 due. President Roosevelt's reply to the British offer, eagerly awaited, was tliat the United States would accept the partial payment only with the ex plicit understanding that the money was just an Instailiiieiit on the sura due and that such action sliould in no vv.ay invalidate America's claim to the unpaid remainder, Mr. Roosevelt advised the British that as soon as possible they should make whatever representations for a revision of the debt they desire to offer, and in Washington. He said he had no power to reduce or cancel the debt but would submit Che results of the negotiation to congress. Under the new inOation bill the President is authorized to accept silver in payment of debt fiistiillmenfs at the value of .50 cents an ounce. So the British paid in silver obtained from India. ibe ^ )rld. Chancellor of the Exchequer Neville Chamberlain seconded tbe remarks of MacDonald about war debts, and also said the crisis In world economi-c con ditions makes restoration of tlie gold standard absolutely impossible at pres ent. He favored multiiateral treaties for lower tariffs, provided the reductions were actual and tangible, that they covered a wide area, that they did not impose undue sacrifices on lower tar iff countries and that tliey did not lead to economic warfare. lie emphasized the necessity for cheap money. W HEN Secretary Hull arose, the third to deliver his address, it was expected he would make some sort of reply to the war debts de mand. But he was silent on that sub ject, devoting much of his speech to argument for a renewal of the tariff truce promulgated by President Roose velt. This must be followed, he said, by removal of trade barriers, elimina tion of excessive tariffs, stabilization of exchanges and abandonment of na tionalistic economic policies. “The world cannot longer go on as it Is going at present.” Hull said. “A successful meeting of this confer ence in my Judgment Is the key to widespread business recovery,” i success of the conference than the Injection of the war debts issue was the demand of the French, represented by Premier Daladier, that the dollar be stabilized before the matter of tariff re ductions and r e- moval of other trade barriers be taken up. Both the dollar and the pound, he Inti mated, must be sta bilized on a gold basis at the earliest possible moment. “We feel we must end the currency war,” Premier D.aladier declared. “The maintenance of the gold standard is indispensable. How can circulation of goods be re-established If their value depends on luck and hazard? What would you say to an architect or builder who used an elastic foot- rule ?” America’s hope for success of the conference was built upon a world tariff truce, and the French believe they have blocked this for the present at least. They assert this would mean nothing so long as currencies are fluctuating. Only 15 of the nations represented in the conference adhered to the temporary tariff truce which was to last during the life of the par. ley. and one of these, France, now re fuses to renew its pledge under exist ing circumstances. debts, as much as discord * ' over the matter of war veteran.?’ benefits, c.aused delay in the adjourn ment of congress, though the latter question was the ostensible reason. The senate appeared determined to stay in session until it had learned all there was to know about the offers of partial payment and the President’s response. The senators had known for a long time that Mr. Roosevelt wanted them to get away before June 15. and Robinson of Indiana read to them jabled dispatches from London saying that ChanoSllor Chamberlain berw'.iitiiiiioiincing nrs oiic ot lO per l cent payment. So they decled to stav on the job a little longer, i On the surface the dele was due to disagreement over the Edification of the President’s program'or reduc tion of veterans’ benefits, aiart of the independent offices bill. rhe house had accepted the comprome, but 20 Democratic senators and Shipst-ead, Farmer-I.ahorite, jomed wh 27 Re publicans to recommit th\measure.

But the huusisbowed signs of going along with t Presi dent, so the Democratic ?nators changed their mind and, aft a hot debate, accepted the prograijt had previously rejected.

EASTMAN. ber of the Interstate commerce commission, was selected by President Roosevelt to be federal co-ordinator of transportation under the terms emergency r n act. Eastman doesn’t like the labor clauses in the measure which prevent the reduction of operating forces, but believes that much can be accomplished in spite of them. The railroad execu tives themselves have decided there must be savings effected in labor and decided to request organized labor to accept a 22^4 per cent reduction in the basic wage scale. Their committee of nine Is empowered to negotiate with the unions to a conclusion. If the nego tiations fail, there would still be a long period before a strike call. Un der tbe terms of the railway labor act. if direct negotiations fail, the federal mediation bo.ard would offer the serv ices of a conciliator who might spend several months in bringing tlie parties together. Then, if both parties per sisted in disagreement, the way would be open to arbitration. Arbitration would likely extend over a long period. Should this fail, the law provides for the declaration of a state of emergency, under which the President of the United States ap points a fact finding commission, which must study the issues involved and report within thirty days. jV/TRS. ROOSE'VELT returned home from her air trip to California in the course of which she announced the coming divorce of her son Elliott. To the IVashington correspondents she explained the incident at the Dallas airport when Gov, “Ma” Ferguson and her husband failed to get into a pho tograph with the First Lady. The simple fact was that Mrs. Roosevelt, being hungry, was eating breakfast and asked the photographers to wait, and when she finished eating, the Fer gusons had gone away In a huff.

MacDonald insist', that debts must be dealt with urgeny as a continua tion of the policy si up at I.ausanne, where the German reparations were whittled down the vanishing point. He admitted however, that he feared the debts cjild not be settled at the conference. ■ Secretary of State Hull, head of the American delegatior] delayed the de livery of his add^s one day. and when he did speaSkhe avoided any mention of the watfdehts.

Premier Daladier of France insisted that world currencies must be : bilized In order tliaT there might be economic recovery, and intimated that the dollar and the pound must be first made stable on a bold basis be fore there could be any removal of trade barriers. Jung of Italy : Adams of Poland spoke to the same effect The American delegates had Intend ed to submit to the conference at the first opportunity a resolution for effective tariff truce by all nations of the world, but, according to members of the French delegation, they were to abandon tLs^Iji by the op- p'jwws, if Frar.c-V^^PWrn'r French thesis that’currencies shou p be sta bilized before tariff's are discussed. Baron Von Neurath. speaking for Germany, stressed the need of political appeasement as well as of economic appeasement, and emphasized that In ternational debts can be paid only in goods and servicea In Germany’s present economic situation, he said, this principle must be the starting point. Maxim Litvinov of Russia told the conference of the great benefits to the world that would follow upon rec ognition of the peaceful co-existence of the two systems—capitalism and socialism, and gave figures showing how much Russia was willing to buy abroad, but he didn’t suggest any change In soviet plans for obtaining credits.

Washington.—The upward sweep of farm prices is shelving for the time being many of the extraordinary new powers for relief extended to govern ment farm officials by congress. This rise, credited in pari by gov ernment statisticians to inflationary influences, has greatly increased po tential farm purchasing power, long dammed by low prices and surplus production. Every important farm product has shown an Increase, one of them, wool, advancing 75 per cent to its approximate prewar level. Congress has enacted more far- reaching agricultural legislation dur ing the three-month session than Its predecessors have put on the statute books In any decade. The farm ad justment act. the $2,000,000,000 mort gage refinancing law and an act com pleting consolidation of federal agri cultural credit agencies were the most Important. reT'he ad}'istment act has as Its goal ers to i1 advance terials thej urably he most co Secretary Wallace belT^ reduction is necessary in the case of wheat, cotton and corn and that hog and live stock production should be cut. But he is convinced that nn- derfaking any program of production curtailment while prices rise” Is difficult because the farmer will be less willing to retire acreage.

President Accepts Install ment in Silver. | Washington. — President Roosevelt announced that the British government was paying the United States SIO.IKX).- 000 war debt Installment due June 15 and indicated he was receiving the part-payment without imputation of default and without prejudicing the freedom of either government in sub sequent discussions of “the entire ques tion of the debt” The President made public an ex change of notes showing that the British had asked to be heard further on the subject and had been advised to "provide for such representations to be made In Washington as soon as convenienL" Mr. Roosevelt will nego tiate personally under his constitu tional . treaty-making powers and, as he notified London, will submit any results of such a discussion to the next session of congress for its in formation or consideration. This expedient was devised to obvi ate an approach to the extraordinary session of congress, then nearing ad journment, and avert a debacle at the outset of the London economic confer ence, although the exchange showed the President disagreed with a British contention thaf uncertainty about a “satisfactory settlement of the war debts” would hamper the success of the economic conference. The British paid the installment In silver at 50 cents an ounce, this being authorized by the new Inflation act. Italy and Finland likewise made par tial payments. France, Belgium and other nations defaulted, ns they did last December. The total amount due the United States on June 15 was about $144,000,000.
