| e ' . STEPS TORELIEVE FINANCE REVIEWED White House - Statement Tells at'Length What Ad- ministration Has Done. The accomplishments of the admin- istration toward relief of financial conditions are reviewed at length in a statemént issyed from the White House yesterday afternoon, declaring that the work dome in that direction during the last four months consti- tutes “an achievement of the largest importance to the countr In support of this assertion the statement points to and discusses at length the recent reduction of dis- count. rates by federal reserve banks: steps taken by the Treasury toward refunding the nytional debt; the re- sumption of actlve operation by the War Finance Corporation; efforts to- ward final settlement of the railroad problem; extension of relief to agri- culture and the live stock industry nd various other items of the admin- istration’s fihancial policy. “It is unsafe” said the statement, “to prophesy concerning conditions in the future. but it may be expected that recognition will be given to fur- ther improvements in conditions in accordance with the dictates of sound banking practice.” Text of Statement. The statement pointed to succes- sive reductions in rediscount rates by the federal reserve banks, and added: “It will not have escaped attention that the rates.of discount of the Bank of England have also beert succes- sively reduced. and that these r sluitions have heen substantially co- incident with the reduction of the federal reserve rates in this country. This, would appear to be a frank recognition of the intimate relation letween the money markets in this country and of Europe, and a retog- mition as well of the improvement in world credit conditions. The impor- tance of coincident reduction by these two leading banking systems lies chiefly in the fact that it indicates a mutual desire to reopen the inter- national channels of credit upon which international trade denends. “The Treasury on its part has, dur- ing the past four months, successfully inaugurated its new policy of refund- ing the shbrt-dated debt of the go’ ernment and distributing the early maturities over the period between the maturity of the victory loan in 1923 and the third liberty loan in 1925. The first offering of Treasury notes pursuant to this policy et with a most enthusiastic response, and the further development of the program should bring about a better distribu- tion of the public debt and much im- proved market conditions for gover: ment securities. There has alread been a marked improvement in the market prices of liberty bonds and and the market for all oustanding issues of short-term gov- ernment securities is in better shape .than at any time since the depres- * the sion.” Tnspiriting Factor. The work of the revived War Fi- nance Corporation, the statement said, “has been, according to many ev dences received. an inspiriting and heartening factor in the whole agri- cultural situatio Referring to the President's pro- posal that the powers of the War Finance Corporation be extehded to allow it to purchase railroad securitles from the railroad administration in order fo finance the settlements t that administration. the statement waidy it was expected that the inter- vention of ti:e finance corporation in railroad finances “will again have a beneficial effect on general railroad credit and_ alsa that the corporation will again be able to secure the whole- hearted co-operation of the bankers of the country in developing the.mar- ket for railroad securities. ‘Speaking in the broadest way the series of mea:ures mentioned con- Stitute a truly constructive effory for amelioration of business and financial conditions, and there are al- ready many eviden es of beneficial effects. With a generallyexcellentagri- cultural production now assured for the season, there is every reason for confidence that a steady improvement of general business conditions may be anticipated.” 7,786 BECOME CITIZENS. .More Than Half of Foreign Born Here Are Naturalized.

SWEET BILL CONFEREES' REACH FULL AGREEMENT Bureau Directly Under ‘the *President. A complete agreement was reached yesterday by the House and- Senate conferees on the Sweet bill to con- solidate the various , government agencies dealing with former service men. Under it the Senate provision making the veterans' bureau inde- pendent, directly under the President, will be retained. The agreement also provides that the burden of proof. in all cases where mental and tuberculosis pa- tients, are claimants,.shall, for two ars, be upon the government, the conferces refusing to agree unless a_time limit was placed. The Senate conferees yielded on their amendment abolishing the Fed- eral Board for Vocational Education. but all activities of the board will be transferred to the veterans' bu- reau and the board will confine its work to co-operation with the states in_ vocational education. The con- ferées agreed to an amendment un- der which the ‘construction of all hospitals for the veterans' bureau will be under the Treasury Depart- ment. The Senate amendment ynder which blind soldiers would be allowed $50 pér month for attendants, instead of $20. was stricken out. UNIFORM ISSUE STOPPED. of War Cannot Clothing Now. Veterans of the world war who did not receive uniform clothing when they left the Service are not now en- titled to’an issue of such clothing, Veterans Get | according to a memorandum issued by the War Department. 2 Judging from the many applications trom veterans for such clothing re- ceived at the war department the averdge discharged soldier apparently does not know that a recent act of Congress stopped the issue of soldier clothing to those who did not receive it when they left the service. Offi- cials feel that all concerned_should know that no further issues can-be made whether or not the men received their full outfit upon discharge. DEFENDS THE JAPAI\iESE._ Given Congress Are False.

He also expressed himself in favor of universal suffrage, and said he hoped “to see the language of Wash- ington, Lincoln and Harding become the paramount speech of the Forto Rico schools.” Gov.

URGES NEW ROAD PLAN. Mr. Hoover Would Let Contracts in Fall to Relieve Unemployment. Secretary Hoover has urged gov- ernors of the varfous states to let their oontracts for road construction in the fall rather than in the spring as a means of relieving the unem- ployment situation. Mr. Hoover said he had sent letters to the governors suggesting this step, as the letting of contracts in the fall would necessitate em- ployment of men during the winter to handle the necessary supplies and roadbuilding materials. This pro- cedure was already in effeet in some states, he sgid, and a committee of engineers who invesitgated the re- sults for him had recommended the adoption of the plan generally. , —_— CONCERT POSTPONED - AS RESULT OF STORM TOBE GIVEN TONIGHTT The recreational singing and vaude- ville entertainment scheduled to have been given in the stadium of Central High School last night by the com- munity center department of the public schools was postponed on ac- count of the storm yesterday after- noon.
