JJSJ . THE OTTAWA SIGN-POST biiTfid'bjkjiiihg of the imperial economic conference which is ildw in pi'ojrreHS at Ottawa, Canada, marks a new stepr and' a',' miist important one in the development of ' that amazing experiment in international relations the British empire. ' . The' dominions have come of age now. No longer do they serjd their representatives to London to wait, hat in hand, for an opportunity to present their pleas for favors from, the mdther couhtry! Instead the empire now sends its offcials to the dominions. Mother England is now asking favors of het children. The future of the empire rests in the hands of the domiuions.i Whatever is accomplished at Ottawa may have far-reaching effects upon the whole world for years to come. An empire thdt'ohce was predominantly political in nature is going to try to substitute commercial ties for the political ones, and the world is watching every step with close attention. , j. If our eyes are open we cannot fail to see In what is now going orj at Ottawa a striking illustration of the-way in which the world has changed in the past few generations. AiV'old order of society has ceased to be, and it has gone out of existence so gradually it even now. i ne iirmsn (lommionsrinciependent in all but mime, are not work in o- for Mini: which indepemlont nations iuive always sought in the past, , Instead they are tvying. to find some way of making; their association with other nations, their mutual interdependence, stronger and .more ciuiuring. When we stop to think about this it simply means that; the nations which make up the empire have come to reali&e that.no nation can go its own way alone any longer. The world has been imperceptibly but surely shrinking until we are rapidly approaching the point where all nations must sta'pd or fall together. Out of date as a political institution, th. empire 'nifty yet' save itself by developing commercial and'economic ties, and making itself over into a miniature league of nations for the benefit of each of its members. . Jn all of this there is a highly important lesson for the re$t of the world. If mutual co-operation and understand ing work for a few nations, they ought to work for all na tinny. What happens at Ottawa may become a sign-post foi' every other government on earth, . 1 INTBKCIIANGE OF CURRENCY , 1 ; ; Free interchange of the currencies of Canada and tlie1 United States encounters some obstacles at points distant from the international border, but there seems to be noth ing ,td prevent it in the border strip. .Americans cannot be compelled by their government to accept Canadian currency, which is not legal tender in the United States, but their government should be prevailed upon to approve and promote the free interchange of the two cur rencies. Jt would be eminently desirable if commercial in terests across the line would give their official approval td thd acceptance of Canadian currency in the daily trans adtion of business. Every argument is on the side of free interchange. Under normal conditions there is no difference in the value of the two currencies. Most of the time the money of the dominion is as valuable as the corresponding American coin or note. iiatt ,.ini.wiiivn jo ti Wt III 11 Htm: niwil', I III! II 1 1 lilt. I ILc t.'lllier wwy is very small. For free interchange there is the argu ment that Canadians are inconvenienced and humiliated when their money is declined in the United States. It is not im probable that the United States is losing much Canadian mishtess because of it. (it t is just as important to encourage the interchange of fjiploney as the interchange of citizens and yet the United rSlates has devoted its efforts to making it easy for Cana VQIiins to cross the international line, business men in the .United States would find it to their financial advantage to -tncourage a wider acceptance of the currency of their t.friendly neighlun-. vex:-' .'-'.'J'.: : . ,-r : .

Eugene Register-Guard; MOOVKIt'S I KADKItSHIP - Critics of the Republican adminis tration who have charged that "Hoo ver Jcadership" is a failure, might try explaining the administration's pres ent gigantic program for relief and reconstruction. As published Saturday, the presi dent Is calling on government and private Industry for a gigantic effort to pull the nation from the slough of depression. Railroads arc being ashed to put men back to work on lncreas-i'eery ed repair and maintenance. Leaders in. other lines of Industry are bcinic requested to Increase their operations to provide greater employment. Adop tion or the o-nour day is even being ,rious!y suggeated. in many quar- wrs. In addition to the offensive on this line, the president has a huge pro gram, of which operation of' the Re construction Piniuico corporation is the principal feature. The program building in the tenement districts of big cities; a coordination program of livestooK and feed loans; financing or agricultural exports: expansion of credit facilities: speedy operation of the home loan bonk system, and con sideration of still other avenues of providing aid to public and private agencies. This is the most comprehensive program ever outlined by any ad ministration In an attempt to restore public confidence and end a period of depression. Tire .benefits already nra apparent in rising commodity priced, a mild boom tn the stock mar ket, and reports that many Indus tries long shut down are preparing to resume operations. This Is before the Hoover program oven has started to function. If It is humanly passible to end n period of depression through govern mental aRilstnnce. this one will be broken. Economists are united in declaring that the nation Is funda mentally sound, and that much of the present trouble Is due to mess psychology. They point out that the United suites Is the best able of all; nations to maintain a state of oros- perlty Independent of world condi-t uons. . au that is needed s n little more confidence In ourselves, pins In telligent regulation or production. "Hoover leadership" has not failed. In fact. It gives every -Indication of success.
