The succeeding months were mark od by visits of two of Europe'3 fore most statesmen Premier Pierre La val of Prance and the youthful For eign Minister Dino Grand! of Italy. And two of America's statesmen Secretary Henry h. Stlmson and An drew W. Mellon were dispatched abroad to negotiate for the president. Since 1924 Germany had borrowed some four billions of dollars of which more than two billion was furnished by the United States. In 1931 Ameri can citizens had a larger financial stake In Germany than the rest of the world combined. Moratorium Proposed Early in the summer of 1031 a "fight from the mark" began and panic threatened. To avert this and to protect American Investors Presi dent Hoover proposed the moratorium aa the first of a series of measures to remedy this situation. When congress met in December President Hoover conveyed in a spe cial message to both houses his views on debts and reparations. He was quick to point out that ". . . rep arations is necessarily a wholly Euro pean problem with which we have no relation. . . ." And that he did not approve "In any remote sense of the cancellation of the debts to us." Ho-, hinted, however, that it would be necessary In some casni to make still further adjustments, and ac cordingly urged congress to revive the commission which negotlate.1 earlier debt settlements and give It author- spiratlon for the motif which will be carried out In the decorations, pro gram and entertainment. A wedding cake will be presented to one of the guests and prizes will be awarded to the newest and oldest brides and every June bride will bo especially honored. A candy booth will be open during tho evening and a fish pond will be operated for the unmarried women. . , Mrs. G. N. Tarklngton and Mrs. O. R.

Meanwhile now problems were aris ing to haunt thq president. Great Britain went off the gold standard. Japan had entered Manchuria. The export of American goods had, de clined sharply. There was an evidence of hoarding of currency In the United States. And there were ugly rumors, of the solvency of banks. Party Leaders Confer Confidence In general was waning to such an extent that on October 6, 1931, the president lamed a call for a conference at the White House of the leaders of both parties. This conference Btarted' moves that eventually resulted In a program de signed to mobilize the country's re sources for the fight against the business slump. The GlaAs-Steagall banking bill was passed with changes in the federal reserve law. Congress provided 125 millions for the federal land bank system. The Reconstruction Finance cor poration was set up with an Initial operating fund of 600 millions. To these proposals the president added the plan of the home discount banks and a nationwide campaign against hoarding. An Intensive campaign for decreas ed expenditures in government was put underway. The cry of "balance the budget" was met by the house by passage of a revenue measure held sufficient for that purpose,. After days of tho bit terest warfaro a proposed manufac turer's sales tax was defeated in tho hotreo and special excise taxes sub stituted. After the house had finished .with the budget-balancing log I 1 at Ion, another straggle over It was in store In tho senate.
