THE PERIL OF | EDISON-FORD'S I MONEVSCREME Would Create More Paper Money Than Russia’s Trillions But Add No Real Wealth. SOME DANGEROUS FALLACIES Would Remove Safe Restraint of Gold Baal* and Open Way to Endless Issues of Paper Money. — How the United States would be swamped, under a greater volume of worthless paper money than has ruined Germany and Russia, by the Edison-Ford commodity currency plan Is pointed out In the present article, concluding the reviews, prepared by the American Bankers Association, of the recent exposure of the folly of the whole scheme by William T. Fos ter, Director of the Pollack Foundation for Economic Research. Mr. Foster says: '“The supply of money,’ sayt Mr. Ford, ‘ls Inadequate. There le more wealth than there fs money to move It.' He draws a vivid picture of 'the golden dam to the stream of prosperity.' From a hundred quarters comes the demand for the government to speed up the printing presses, in order to crush 'the money monopoly,' reduce Interest rates, and make It easier for everybody to get money. “Inflating the currency, however, though it enables people to get more units of currency, does not enable them to obtain more purchasing power, and it does not reduce interest rates. In all her history Germany ? never had so much money or as high Interest rates as in 1922. Money, unlike other forms of wealth, Is not easier to obtain simply because the total supply Is Increased. On the contrary, Increasing the supply of money ordinarily increases the demand for money, and Interest rates depend not on supply but on the relation between supply and demand. A Dangerous Fallacy "We are assured, however, that the Ford-Edison plan provides money for the farmer at virtually no expense to the government or to anyone else. All the government has to do is to print the money. What could be simpler? Here we come to the most dangerous fallacy In the whole project. It is dangerous because of the universal desire to get something for nothing. "Here Is the gist of the matter: Money will bny whatever Is produced, not a particle more by any trick of alchemy, or legislation, or finance. The Russians, having multiplied their money 257,000 times, cannot buy as much with It as before. When we print more money there are no more goods for money to buy; not a single additional plow, or hat. or potato. "Some of those who get the newly printed money can buy more goods than before; all other people can buy fewer goods than before, because their money has fallen off in purchasing power. Since there are no more plows, and hats, and potatoes, and so on. to distribute, If some people get more, others must get less. "Inflation under the Edison plan Is I limited mainly because, on account of Its Indefensible discrimination, most groups of producers of goods and services are not allowed to particl- I pate. If all groups were Included, as In fairness and In politics they would have to be eventually, the poslbllltles of Inflation would be vast. The Deadly Spiral "The total Income of the United States Is now In excess of fifty billions of dollars. The total money In circulation. Including bank deposits subject to check. Is not far from twenty-five billions. It follows that the annual production, If used as a hasls for new issues on the Edison plan, could at once greatly Increase the volume of money In circulation. Every addition to the monetary supply would tend to raise prices. The higher i prices became, the higher would be the loan value of a given volume of goods since the size of the loans Is . based on values and not volume. The greater, therefore, would be the volume of new money that could be Issued on the basis of a given annual production. Prices would become still higher; and so on up an endless | spiral. "Even In Russia, where financial ‘ printing presses hold the world's record for volume, where new Issues of two hundred trillions of rubles per i month stagger the imagination, the people complain that 'there Is not t enough money to do business with.’ Without the arbitrary restraint of the gold basis, and with Muscle Shoals inflationists, and sundry other kinds of inflationists constantly pressing their claims upon .Congress, it Is not at all certain that the United States, once well on the road to financial chaos, would In the end be outrun by Russia.” BANKS HELP CLUB WORK Yakima County Banks In the State of Washington have loaned $8,670 to boy and girl club members. Yakima Coifnty has twenty-nine pig club members. twenty-four poultry club members and forty-three dairy club members. Dairy club members are all using pure-nred stock, iocsi breeder* and bankers co-operating with them to the fullest extent

hair tonic on cows Shelby County Cows Get Application To Keep Flies Away Shelbyville, Sept. A large numiber of Shelby county cows lire getting lyiir tonic applied this year for the first time and as a result they are singularly free from flies. The hair tonic campaign was carried on by County Agent H. I). John son to encourage the use of fly sprays Several local druggists mixed up the Purdue foiinula, two quarts of fish oil one quart of oil of tar and three fifths ounces of crude carbolic add and sold it at a slight margin. And as a result, the hair tonic for Icows was used more widely than ever before, and the milk flow during the hot season was considerably increased. • G. 0. P. To Coniine Self To Domestic Questions Chicago .Sept. 6. —The republican party's pre-con vention political cam ipalgn will be confined chiefly to do i mestic questions, Fred W. Upham ! treasurer of the Republican national committee, said here today after a tour of Europe and conference with party leaders in New York. "The record of the republican party and conditions under the last democralie administration will be stressed.' ■ he asserted. Upham declared that President Cal : vin Coolidge will be the “pole horse’ 'of the Republican race. He believes that the contest, as things stand now appears to be between Coolidge and Hiram Johnson. Chicago is virtually certain to be the scene of the next republican con vention, he said, unless Mr. Coolidge urges some other city. Man Kills Wife Who Refused To Make Ur St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 6. —United Press) Spruned twice when he attempted to make up with his estrang ed wife, Walter H. Osborn. 37, drew a pocket knife and stabbed hei through the heart on a street here last night. “I couldn't live without Elizabeth.’ Osborn said. "She said she would never live with me again, and I didn’ l want some other man to get her.” The woman, 32 years old. died on i the way to the hospital. The couple separated three weeks ago. Osborn was arrested after a scuffle, and wil be held for murder. The Universal Recompense.

The Italian am bassador is reported killed. Th, American military attache and th, secretary of the German embassy ar, I reported, without confirmation, thave been killed on a train which was thrown from the rails between Oisoch and Ratsuka. (NOTE. Ambassador Woods reports all members of the American embassy staff safe and the foregoing may hav< been dispatched prior to Wood's re port.) This investigation further showed that 250,000 houses in Tokia were de stroyed. , Most of the houses were destroyei by fire, which followed the quake rather than by the quake proper. The Imperial university, containing a library of half a million books, o! incalculable value, was burned. The British embassy was only slight ly damaged. The most dramatic installation o‘ a Japanese premier in the country’. l history took place on the lawn ir front of Akasaka palace while th, fire was at its height and the eartl was still trembling with the recur rent shocks. The Premier Yamamoto stood oi the lawn with his cabinet around him for the ceremonies. The prince re gent was present. They party did no'i dare go inside the palace, owing t< *he danger of its eollopse, or being red. But with the city in flame about them. The members of the new government were administered theii oaths and turned to the great task before- them. San Francisco. Calif., Sept. 6— (Special to Daily Democrat)—Thirty thousand killed; 100,000 injured, and 350,000 buildings destroyed in Tokio. is the latest estimate of the toll of Saturday's earthquake and subsequent fire made by the Japanese home ministry, according to a message received by the radio corporation of America here today. The radiogram was forwarded by

—— the government wireless station at Tomioka. > "Yokohama has been annihilated." the message said. Measures are being taken, the rad ■ iogram declared, to guard foreigners against suffering. "Prince Sulonji Is safe but his villa . has been destroyed." the radiogram read. "The home office announced 30.000 dead. 100,000 injured, and 350,0 pt) houses lost In Tokio. "Twenty-five hundred refugees have been seen gathered In Fukuwa. "Yokohama has been annihilated. "Yokosuka unknown." (The last statement was interpreted as meaning that Yokosuka had been wiped out ) "All houses nt Kamakura collapsed and most were burned. "All villas about Hayama lost. "Hiratsuka and Olso also lost, but there was no fire at Kodsu. "Damage slight west of Mishima. "The cabinet has decided to take measures to protect suffering foreign ers. "The detached palace of Fukugawa lias been opened for sufferers. “Mitsui company has offered to build barracks for refugees at Hibiya ind Ueno parks, Babasaki and Kameldo. Hibiya park barracks will ie built first. "Three wards have been freed of fire, they being Koishiawa* Azabu ind Ushlgome.” BODY DECIDES. (Continued from page one) n 1897, adopted a resolution denounc >d the massacre and decided to returr their Greek war decorations. Premier Mussolini has made a ipeech at Rome, declaring that Grea" Britain and other countries sympa hetic towards Greece, need a demon itration of Italy's calm and righteous less. (United Press Service) Geneva. Sept. 6 —(Special to Daily Democrat) —The peace of the Balk ins. with the alternative of anothm general war which may involve al Europe, hung in the* balance today ar he council of the league of nation? hesitated. If the council decides to ignore Italy's claims and adjudicate the Italy-Greek dispute despite threat? of Premier Mussolini to withdraw from the league—it will merely be an issue of strength between Italy and the league of nations. If the council declines to assert its ight and power to answer Greece's •equest for mediation, statesmen ot ‘he leading nations declare the fol owing things will happen: 1 — The whole structure of th< eague will be undermined and the ■.ociety of nations will collapse. 2— Four treaties which ended the world war will be imperilled, foi ■latises which bind their signatories ire similar to those of the covenant if the league. 3— Decisions of the league by which several smaller nations art ibiding against their will, will b, lullified. As the council met today to formu ate its fateful decision, telegrams irrived from all parts of the world iemanding that the league "stand lat” in the dispute and refuse to •ive way to Italy. The assembly of the league was to ■ave held a session this morning but idjourned to clear the decks for the council whose deqlsjon is expected oday. The problem with which the conn ill is faced and upon which the fate >f the league and peace in Europe tangs, is briefly this; Five commissioners were lain at Janina and Italy, holdinp Treece responsible, occupied Greek territory and demandjed indemnity. Treece proposed an international in ver.tigat'on of the assassinations and protested to the league of nation? igainst the punit've measures insti •uted by Italy. The latter country denied the league's authority in the matter and threatened to withdraw ’rom that organization if the subjec* were discussed. Italy hold that the I ■ouncil of ambassadors at Paris was the only body competent to adjudi -ate the matter. So much more is involved, however hat a mere question in dispute be ween Italy and Greece, that the grav >st consequences may result from he league cuoncil's decision. Al ready. Jugo-Slavia. which acquiesced unwillingly jn a recent decision by the league, is asking if its function? are to say what small nations do while larger ones do as they please The Serbs would be one of the first to make difficulties in the Balkans, it is believed, if the league collapses or fails to assert its authority. Although only private conversations between league delegates followed adjournment of the assembly, it is generally conceded that invest! i gation of the massacre of the Italian mission is a question within the competence of the council of ambassadors. Thus far, Italy is right, it is ' said. Greece has agreed to this.
