SHIPSTEAD URGES NOTES 10 PAY DEBT Senator Prefers Treasury Issue to Hoover’s $500,- 000,000 Plan. ®enator Shipstead of Minnesota, | Farmer-Laborite, 1ast night proposed a government issue of non-interest bear- ing Treasury notes as legal tender for payment of public and private debts as a better means of relief than President Hoover's plan for & $500,000,000 recon struction corporation “In my opinion,” said Senator Ship- stead, speaking over a Nation-wide radio hook-up, “& better way for expanding the currency than that proposed by this Government, Banking Corporation would be for the Federal Government to issue Tnecessary moneéy in the form of non- interest bearing Treasurv nntes, mak- ing them legal tender, for the payment of debts, public and private. to be re- tired affer & period of years through taxation as bonds are retired. This would prevent possible Ioss to the gov- ernment that might be sustained by having to acquire assets that cafnot be collected under the proposed plan now before Congress. He said President Hoover's recom- | mended corporation would mean a cur- rency inflation of $1.500.000.000. The | organization is designed to help loosen frozen banking assets beyond the pow- ers of the Federal Reserve banks and | aid railroads and life insurance com- \ panies. Asserting the outstanding problem confronting the world is how interna- | tional, public and private debts can be | paid, business restored and unemploy- ment eliminated. Shipstead said exten- | sion of credit is not a solution. He cited the enhanced value of gold and the de- | creasing value of other commodities and contended a medium of exchange must be restored in sufficient quantity to break the prr'!nb trade blockade.
