VAL REPRESENTATIV! Newspapers, 1411 Fourth Avenue Bld: tle, Wash, HELP FROM THE SOUTH The Board of Directors of the California State Hotel Association, powerful sunny State organization, has petitioned the United States Congress to bend efforts toward securing adequate highway facilities from the West Coast to points in Alaska. Among other arguments the resolution calls the attention of Congress to the following: The present Alcan Highway is approximately 1500 miles from Seattle, requiring a total of 3,000 miles of travel by automobile for the person residing on the coast and who wishes to go by auto to Alaska. The present highway, if used after the war, will do much damage to the future commercial, as well as recreational activities of the people of the Southwest and Pacific Coast areas in the continental United States. The Canadian government has agreed to provide iwo-thirds of the money necessary for building a road along the coast from Seattle north to a junction with the Alaska Highway, if the United States puts up the remaining one-third. Such a road is vital to a continuation of close commercial and social activities between the West Coast and Alaska which have existed since the days Washington Merry- litical friends that he was not ‘llllul Clare. | Anyway, he didn't.

Certainly the attitude of the present Gov- ernment would be one of the most vehement opposi- tion.” Yet the accounts of the Chancellor’s speech leave the point somewhat in doubt. For they go on to report him as saying that the international monetary plan contemplates the necessity of a fixed parity. There should be, he continued, a recognized machinery for the adjustment of rates of exchange of several, countries in relation to their currencies, including the United States currency, which is based on gold. There- fore, he said, the scheme provided for regulating the parities of national currencies in the last resort with gold. Now when a nation ties its currency to gold it is on the gold standard. When it ties its currency to the | currency to the currency of another nation which is in turn tied to gold it is on what has been called the gold-exchange standard. The gold-exchange standard was a standard maintained before the war by small | or poor countries that were not thought able to afford a full gold standard. It was the next best thing to a gold standard, but it was not very satisfactory, be- cause the currency of the nation on the gold-exchange andard was necessarily dependent upon the currvncyi of the gold-standard nation to which it was tied.| Whatever undermined confidence in the big nation’s| currency also necessarily undermined confidence in | the nation’s currency that was tied to it | It is probable that after the war realities will| compel the British Government, like other. govern- ments, to be less “vehement” in opposition ito the gold | standard. Testifying before a Congressional commit-, tee a few days ago, Dr. Edwin W. Kemmerer, one of | the world’s leading moretary authorities, ‘who has| probably been called in by more governments than any other living man to help set their currencies on a ' stable basis, said The first requirement of any postwar monetal tandard that can be wisely adopted internationally and maintained for any con- siderable time is that it shall have the con- fidence of the people. It should be free from international jealousies. Like Caesar's wife, the standard should be above suspicion. To this end it should be simple and be a develop- ment out of along, common experience. * * * No other kind of currency system in a dis- tracted postwar world will so quickly restore the confidence of the public as a true gold stande local U.
