Keaton Before Stabilization (New York Times) For the last two or three years it has been the comviction of an increasing number of well-informed | persons that no permanent stabilization of the world’s currencies could be expected until the remaining nations in the “gold bloc”—France, Switzerland and | Holland—had devaluated. This step has now been taken in a most dramatic manner. The fears that were sometimes entertained that this devaluation might be followed either by a general policy of drift {er by an outright currency war have been dissipated {Ly the announcements of France, Great Britain and the United States, the three most influential countries, that they intend to consult and cooperate closely for | the purpose of re-establishing a “lasting equilibrium” and relaxing trade barriers, An event that only a few weeks ago seemed to fin= jancial commentators little more than a pious hope Lias occurred. It is a step forward of the first impor- tince. But any realistic view must recognize that many obstacles must still be hurdled before a secure end lasting stabilization of the world’s currencies can | be achieved. Among these, two of the most prominent are tar- iifs and war debts.

In Lewiston, Maine, he declared: | “If we had closed up the Federal Government en- | tirely in March, 1933, we should now be over the de- pression. [ That sentiment did not go over so well; the or- thodox New York Herald-Tribune and Boston Tran- scrip put it way back near the want ads. But they rallied to his support a few days later when he un- loosed considerable venom at Allentown, Pennsylvania. | These observations were: “Under the «present surance policy is safe!” “No savings account is safe!” “It is not a Government. at a county fair!” “It would pay the American people to install a new administration, even if it did nothing!” Colonel Knox himself was a prominent member of the last administration. Early in 1932 President Hoover appointed him head of a national committee *tq_co-ordinate the efforts of those co-operating in relief.
