last mile of an all-paved route
from Atlanta to Savannah through
Madison, Eatonton, and Swains
‘boro. That projec is a paving job
of .699 miles inside the city of
Milledgeville. The Madison-Eaton

FURTHER EXPANSION
TO AID PRICES SEEN
- IN ROOSEVELT MOVE
(Continued From Page 9ne)
to protect our foreign commerce
against the adverse effecet of de
preciated foreign currencies and
to carry out the understanding be
tween the 66 governments that
adopted the resolution hereinbe
fore referred to.”
Pittman held the President's
action “undoubtedly will stabilize
the price of silver throughout the
world at 64% cents an ounce until
some other action is taken to raise
it to a higher price.”
“It will enormously increase our
export trade to these (silver-using)
jountries,” Pittman said. ‘“This pt
course, will aid in raising com
modity prices and ten greatly to
our recovery and hasten the return
of normal conditions.”
Another development in the fi
naricial picture was an unexpected
meeting in the office of Governor
Eugene Black of the federal re-l
serve board of reserve bank gov
ernors from all the nearby banks.
It could not be ascertained immed
lately what was under considera
tion, but appurently the only gov
ernors absent from the meeting
were those too distant. from j
‘Washington to get here,
| Throughout the mining westl
Pregident Roosevelt’s ratification
of the silver agreement and simul- |
‘,ta,neous command to the mints to‘
coin silver, were received jubilant
ly.
Silver brokers in I.ondon consid
ered the action foretold stronger
silver prices but were unable lo
predict. the extent of the rise.
Foreign sales of silver and the
rigidity of observation of the ILon
don agreement were everywhere
considered major factors ‘n the
plans development.
Treasury experts were busy pre
paring detailed regulations for the
receipt of silver at the mint.
Wheat shot up four cents a
tushel a 4 the opening on the Chi
cago board ,f trade today. A flood
of orders poured in as buyers
sought to take advantage of price
swells exopected to follow an
nouncement eof the remone‘izatios
of silver. Trade was at a much
larger volume than at any time re
cently.
| Street Surprised
Wall street generally was taken
by surprise by the president’s
ratification ol the T.ondon silver
agreement. The silver market
here, which rose briskly through‘
the fall in anticipation that
“something” would be done for sil
ver, has recently been sluggish,
Now the government’'s plan will
embrace the purchase of nearly
all the country's production at €1
‘l-2 cents an ounce which is 21 1-2
cents above Thursday’s final price
in the New York market. .
The general impression in the
financial ‘community was that the
inclusion of silver in the adminis
tration’s monetary policy consti
tuted another link in the cha'»
twhich Washington has been en:
Ideavoring to forge for the lifting
of home prices. It was pointed out
however, that proponents of aid
for silver. have long contended
{that higher levels for the white
metal would improve purchasing
power of the vast populations
which use silver, notably the peo
ple of India and China. Thus the
reaction in the far east to the step
became a matter of wide inter
est.
Addition ,f silver to the money
base, a primary result of the
President’s project to buy the na
tions’ silver production, is seen by
experts who have -advised on the
current gold policy, as a means of
attainmg the dollar of constant
purchasing power advocated by
the President.
The more immediate and obvi
ous effects of silver purchases will
‘be t~ add some $15,000.000 in silver
to the $29,000,000 now in ecircula
tion, and, many economists agree,
to stimulate temporarily, at least
commodity and security prices.
Beyond these twg, consequences,
experts find themselyes in conflict
on almaost every point.
The argumer® ranges from ab
solute denial that silver demon
etization will affect prices for
more than a few days to the state
ments of men such as Prof. G. F.
Warren, one of the major influen
ces back of present money policies
that by altering silver along with
gold prices. any desired commodity
level may he attained.
Warren's ideas, as stated in® hiz
book ‘“Prices,” envisaged the use
of silver as money with gold, and
the varving of the relations be
tween them so as to provide a
more stable money based on two
previous . metals instead of one.
Whether the President has such
a plan in view, it was pointed out
that his proclamation carefully
preserves the right to modify tht
present legal ratio between gold
and silver. :

SILVER LINING IN
MARKET’S CLOUDS
Metals Lead Jump Early in
Day But Trading Quiets
On Profit-Taking
NEW YORK.— (AP) — waj
street’'s clouds had a distinctive
silver lining Friday but the traq.
ing weather generally was a little
uncertain.
Led by the metal group, stocks
jumped 1 to 10 points shortly after
the opening, apparently on the
overnight news that the President
had promoted silver to a mope
solid monetary base with a value
for newly mined metal of 641
cents an ounce. Trading was fagi
for awhile. but later quited dowy
under profit-taking, Grains, cot
ton and other commodities leaped
forward behind a sharp advance
in silver futures. Foreign exchan.
ges rallied subs:antially, althougp
the gold price remained static,
Speculative bonds firmed, but U, §,
government issues eased,
News that the R. F. C. had in
crseased its gold-buying fund.p,
~another $25,000.000 to a total of
§5100,000,000, and that $60,000,00)
had already been wused in puy
chases, was also of much interest
to Wall street. Intimations from
Washington that the administra
tion would place no limits upon
future expenditures for gold, both
at home and abroad, ytended tg
confirm previous opinions that
there would be no relaxation in
the campaign to raise commodity
prices.
