Wall Street Silver Bloc Prepared to Fight with President Over Inflation. BY RALPH HENDERSHOT Time* Special Financial Writer. long-awaited and muchA discussed test of whether this country can dabble in inflation and then stop it at will would appear about to be made. The so-called silver bloc is prepared to give battle to Prr.-iticnt Roosevelt over the Issue, and upon the outcome will depend much more than appears

obvious on the! surface. Ever since! President Roosevelt took office he has followed , a more or less middle course in hi s monetary j policy. If any- j thing, though, he has leaned i toward the left. 1 He did not de- ; value the dollar ! to the full extent of his power, but he did rut its gold content much more !

than the conservatives thought advisable, and he did take much of the monetary authority out of the hands of Wall Street. But he did not increase the amount of money in circulation. In fact, that item has | shown a decline. The so-called inflationists were ! satisfied for a time with the Presi- : dent’s policy. They have become dissatisfied with the results, however. and are now pressing for new methods of getting more money into circulation. They want prices to ! rise much faster than they have ; b en going. They want actual cur- , rency expansion and are prepared to fight for it. a a a Have Parted With President HAVING gotten as much in the way of inflation from the President by peaceful means as they could, these inflationists, or currency expansionists, as they perler to be called, have decided to part company with the chief executive. They sought to rally the farm and silver groups to their support by advancing in congress the DiesThomas bill, designed to help both of those groups. At first it was thought that this bill would merely give the President the privilege of inflating the currency via the silver route, but it now appears as if the meaure would make it mandatory. Mr. Roosevelt is opposed to such a measure, but dispatches from Washington stated that its proponents are determined to force it. if possible, irrespective of his wishes. The inflationist group has played rather shrewd politics in bringing their proposals up for a vote. The Dies bill was introduced in the senate purely as an agricultural measure so that it would go before the senate agricultural committee. The Thomas monetary amendment was made later. It was feared if the amendment Was included in the Dies bill, it would go to the senate banking committee and be tabled. a u tt Inflationists in Strong Position FROM all indications the inflationists, with the farm and silver tieup, are in a very strong position. This is especially true because of the elections this year and the unpopularity of opposing anything in congress which is supposed to help the farmers. A factor in the situation which may tend to weaken the position of the opposition is the fact that early adjournment is hoped for. The inflationists are reputed to be prepared to hold congress in session all summer if necessary for exercising the filibuster privilege. Under the circumstances, it would seem as if the President is in for the biggest and most important fight experienced thus far in his administration.
