Wall Street—
Commodity Prices Would Still Be Lower Than in 1926 If Based on 50-Cent Gold Dollar. By RALPH HENDERSHOT
Timet Special Financial Writer No matter what monetary policy President Roosevelt adopts, underlying conditions would seem to favor the purchase of equities and commodities. The chances are that the dollar is to be substantially diluted to bring income into line with outgo and to support our large debt structure irrespective of whether we have outright inflation or inflation based on so-called sound money. Currency inflation, if adopted, must be carried on the the point where owners of money become fearful of its value if it is to have much effect on other values. If once started it undoubtedly would be carried out to that extent, for the real aim of the administration is to increase com-
modity prices. The only way the dollar can be stabilized in this country and in the world markets and a really “sound money’’ program carried out is to fix a definite value upon it and either hold it there by attaching it to gold or by setting aside a large fund, as they have done in England, to buy and sell exchange. Os these two ways the former is generally recognized as being by far the best. This would mean going back on the gold standard. a a . tt Dollar Worth 65 Cents The dollar already has fallen to around 65 cents in the world market, so it is rather out of the question to anticipate a return to the gold standard on the basis of a price much above that figure. The chances are that it may be lower. The President has power to fix its value at 50 cents, and the pressure to place it at that level is extremely great.
Ralph Hendershot
If inflation of the currency takes place, as now seems unlikely, prices of commodities and other equities would increase in value, for the tendency of those funds would be either to get these funds out of the country or to put them in objects of definite worth for safe keeping. Inflation of currency would have no point if that were not the aim. If an official value of 50 cents is placed on the dollar it will become necessary to look upon the value of other things in relation to the dollar in an entirely different light. If a group of commodities, for instance, were worth SI,OOO in so-called normal times they would be worth $2,000 if times were still normal. o n u Commodity Values For lack of some better measurement, chartists frequently use 1926 as normal or 100 in plotting price trends. On that basis a given amount of commodities were worth 91% cents in 1929. At the present time they are worth about 64 cents. But current prices are not based on the gold dollar. The foreign exchange market places a value of 65 cents or 65 per cent of par in gold on the dollar. On the basis of gold, therefore, today's commodities are worth 41.6 cents. But if the dollar is devaluated the present gold of the commodities, measured in terms of the new dollar, would be worth 83.2. In other words, even after giving consideration to revaluation, commodities today would be worth about 9 per cent less than they were in 1929 and 16.8 per cent less than they were in 1926. It is to be assumed, of course, that revaluation would bring about a readjustment in the dollar price of our commodities and those produced in other countries. This readjustment should be upward in this country if a 50 per cent cut is made in view of the present gold value of the dollar of 65 cents. In view of many other factors, however, it is impossible to work out mathematically, with any great degree of accuracy, just what would happen to prices here if the dollar were cut to 50 cents and then attached to gold.

WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, Oct. 4—The stock market whipped out of its rut today, took on gains ranging to 5 poits in active trading, and then held steady around the highs as trading quieted down at mid-ses-sion. There was nothing specific to account for the sharp rise other than a feeling in the “street” that the market was pretty well over-old and ready to start forward. Some trad reports were good. Inflation as a market incentive was tossed overboard for the dollar gained strength today which in the past weeks has spelled a declining market. In many quarters this was considered as reflecting a belief that dollar stabilization would be a bullish influence on stock prices. Grains, cotton and bonds all were stronger. Pools Await Signal In the stock market repeal issues, mining shares, railroads and motors were outstanding. Some pools, awaiting a signal to get underway, were reported to have gone into action in the opening burst of strength which saw tickers one minute late and blocks up to 5,000 shares coming out. Among the repeal issues, which shot forward on strength of Virginia’s joining the wet parade, National Distillers showed 4 points gain, American Commercial Alcohol 3Vs points advance and United States Industrial Alcohol 3% points gain. Rail List Firm In the mining group Homestake again was spectacular, jumping 16% points to 367%. Cerro De Pasco gained 2*4 points. American Smelting preferred hit anew high at 90 for a 3-point gain, while National Lead gained 5 points to 125. The rail division, for which traders have waited some sign of coming from their depths, was lead upward by, Union Pacific which gained 4% points. This western road has shown considerable pickup in farm traffic in certain of its corn belt areas. New York Central was up 2& points while Pennsylvania advanced 1% points. Communications fared well with Western Union showing the way with 3% points advance. American Telephone was up I*4 points.

U. S. Begins Gigantic Drive to Bolster Buying Powers Through Credit Expansion Gap Betwen Busmess Activity and Lagging Bank Loans Forces Second Step of Roosevelt Recovery Campaign. BY FORREST DAVIS United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.—ln modern war, a rapid thrust into enemy terrain is followed by a secondary advance, a consolidating movement by which gains are secured. Infantry in force is moved into the advanced posts, communication lines strengthened, and the campaign enters a period of seeming inactivity while plans are matured for anew offensive. The Roosevelt government's tremendous effort toward recovery- may be said to have entered a second, or consolidating phase. In time, it dates from the last week in September. With this week —the first business week in October—the government's gigantic credit expansion program gets under way. The brilliant advances by NRA, aimed at magnifying the country’s purchasing power, have been pushed as far as present tactics Resistance has been met with. Hence, to prolong the military- analogy, the government moves up the infantry, which, in this simile, may be likened to credit. The government, by such measures, is reopening illiquid banks, rehabilitating railways, attempting to finance production in capital goods industries, subsidizing such industries as may not be able to expand in the face of augmented costs and generally stepping up the velocity of bank credit. Less Spectacular Less spectacular than the first great offensive, through NRA, the second is conceived to be a necessary complement. A glance at comparative statistics on business activity and bank credits since March 4 discloses why the secondary phase is held to be essential. Whereas, business activity, according to the New York Times index, rose from 60 in March to 87 in July and now appears to be at 78; the total of bank loans and investments increased only from 16 to 16.6, with minor fluctuations, in that period. That gap, pursuing the wartime similitude, represents the difference in space between the outposts of recovery and the main body of the advance. The second phase will proceed more quietly. Indeed, the recovery program will appear to be in a lull by contrast with the concentrated ballyhoo of the NRA drive. This quietude may be said to be the lull before the battle is renewed. The third effort, acute observers unite in believing, will take place on the monetary front. Drive to Free Credit Whether the credit inflation project consolidates the earlier gains and moves forward on its own initiative, nearly every one I have talked with in Washington holds that the government will use control of money as a fresh weapon before many weeks have gone by. The intensified campaign to free credit—making it increasingly available —both at the treasury and the local bank—relegates the currency controversy to the background for the moment. The emphasis has been shifted from manipulation of the dollar in relation to prices to a quite different field, supplying more dollars of present value to producers and—in the case of the railroads and relief funds—consumers as a means of supporting business activity and diminishing surpluses. In this second pnase, the government's main objective, namely, a revision of the commodity price level upward, likewise seems to be relegated. Widespread use of credit, it seems likely, will have only a remote effect on prices. In one sample case, the government's offer to finance purchase of steel rails, pressure was maintained toward a lowr price. Less Revolutionary If the second phase is less spectacular, it also likewise is less revolutionary. It connotes no immediate structural changes in the economic complex, although it implies—as does every forward movement in Washington—a strengthening of governmental controls over enterprise. This time it is indirect; through the employment of public funds in private business. No novel approach to the relationship between government and business may be detected, however, in the credit inflation strategy. President Hoover improvised the method. It represented his principal contribution to the economics of recovery. The present campaign extends the Hoover formula. The method failed under Mr. Hoover. Whether it will succeed now that it is flanked by a host of other expedients and being put to use on a far wider scale is unpredictable as is the outcome of any other experiment now current in Washington. > The President’s obvious concentration on credit inflation ignores two issues which are quite generally regarded as paramount and not long to be avoided. One is the debt burden; the other, the relationship of prices to recovery. Coming Together Under both headings, the inflationists—representing, by and large, the agricultural interest with other producing and speculative interests also involved—have a great deal to say. They link two objectives—debt liquidation and prices satisfactory to primary producers. The credit phase furnishes a breathing spell for the currency factionalists. In the breathing spell, a curious tendency may be noted in Washington. The conservative, sound currency men and the inflationists are drawing nearer together on means and the end to be desired. The administration, dominated by sound money thought, is believed to be approaching stabilization of the dollar. The green-backers, modifying their earlier demands for immediate issuance of treasury notes, lean toward stabilization, but only after experiment has demonstrated at what level the dollar should be revalued. A by-product of the second phase may turn out to be a clearer, less controversial atmosphere in which to begin the third drive for recovery.

GRAIN FUTURES MOVE HIGHER ON STEADYBUYING December Wheat Touches 90 Cents in Mid-Morning Rally. BY HARMON W. NICHOLS United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Oct. 4. Scattered buying sent the grain market higher shortly after the opening today. At midmorning wheat was up % to 1% cents; corn was up % cent and oats was up K to H cent. Tlie weakness in Liverpool was overcome by an advance in stocks. The strength in stocks easily offset the lower tone at Liverpool today and scattered buying sent prices up early to above yesterday's finish. The pressure was limited and December wheat hit 90 cents before the market was checked. The market easily was influenced. President Roosevelt is to give an address in New York tonight and buying was believed to have resulted for this reason, though the topic of the President’s address is not known. Liverpool closed % to % cent lower. Receipts today were 12 cars and the cash price was unchanged. Corn rallied with wheat but soon ran into hedging pressure and quieted. The cash price was unchanged and receipts were 88 cars. Oats advanced slightly on scattered buying. The cash price was unchanged and receipts were 21 cars. Chicago Primary Receipts —Oct. 3 Bushels.
