The 50-60 Cent Dollar
THE president has had his way, and the monetary measure
will soon be law, having passed the senate Saturday,
6C to 23. Opposition was just a rear-guard action, because
. the administration had the votes. The new measure merely
' freezes the damage previously done by the Thomas inflation
amendment of last spring, plus the acts of the president since
then in going off gold, commandeering gold stocks and start
ing the gold purchase plan. In fact some' conservatives hail
" the new bill as at least offering a degree of stabilization and
. setting brakes against further collapse of the dollar. .
'- . - The deed has been done, for better, for worse. There
will still be conjecture and argument over what will happen;
and soon we should be able to see what may be accomplished
No one should be disillusioned over the passage of the mone
tary act Hie depression is still with us. If devaluation should
be attended, as it might be, by an explosive rise in prices the
; , result would be equivalent to a sharp wage cut on all those
fixed salaries, which include the majority of the earning
classes. This effect might be worse than the pain of defla
tion which is now pretty well spent.
Writing on the subject, the ."Nation", a very liberal
weekly, and supporter of the "new deal", says :
- "Theoretically, the announcement of a definite intention
i to devaluate the dollar at least 40 per cent should be followed
'", by higher prices. Actually, it is not certain that its immediate
; effect on domestic 'prices will be greater than has been that of
the lessened value of the dollar in foreign exchange. Apparently
; this effect has been alight, since snch price rises as we hare had
.'are mora readily attributable to other causes. Mr. Roosevelt's
' monetary policy has failed to bring the immediate higher prlceB
- . which he wanted, for which the country,. if not the president,
may well be thankful. Just the ante, in the long run the de-
;; valuation of the dollar seems likely to reduce its -purchasing
- power at home as well as abroad, and the gradualness of the
process, if It occurs, should not blind the public to the knowledge
that the government has confiscated a portion of its savings. This
; will not have been done by a capital levy or taies faHlng specially
on the well-to-do, but by a straight slash Into the savings of poor
' aa well as rich. In fact, it must fan moat heavily on the email
saver, as his little accumulations are mainly in fixed -dollar
' values savings-bank accounts. Liberty bonds, insurance poli
1 cies, and the like. It may be. thou it ia not certain, that aome
v such despoliation of the middle class is inevitable, but If so it
. should not be forgotten as an indictment of the industrial system
uader which we Uve."
The votes of Oregon senators on the monetary bill were
mystifying. McNary and Steiwer both voted against final
passage of the measure. But both voted for the Wheeler
amendment which would have directed coinage of silver at
the ratio of 16 to 1. This was more radically inflationary than
the general bill Yet the Oregon republican senators voted for
the Wheeler silver amendment and against the general mea
sure Such voting seems very inconsistent.
With a devalued dollar and with two billions to spend to
keep the dollar cheap the country is off to another start. IfH
depression pains continue the forces for inflation will make a
fresh effort ; so the battle over our monetary system is not
over. '
"Going Hollywood'
ITK) the familiar phrase, "going native" has lately been add
JL .ed another supposed to be loaded with meaning, "going
Hollywood". Hollywood has a code and a flair all its own
which grips those whom it really receives. Take John Gilbert,
who was pondering becoming a director, having lost out in
the movies though happy with a wife and son. Then Greta
Garbo gave him a chance in "Queen Christina". He took it,
appears to have 'made good. But his wife left him; -and the
reporters from the movie capital say that "Hollywood got
him".
Not humans alone succumb to the temptations of the
city of kkig lights and platinum blondes. Remember the hog
in "State Fair", a big Hampshire boar that Will Rogers made
, famous in the film play? He too "went Hollywood" as is de
scribed in the Pacific Rural Press : '
"Blue Boy Is dead.
The -famous Hampshire boar, "pal" of Will Rogers in; the
film fState Fair," passed away at California Polytechnic School
- at San LuhvObiepo.
As readers will recall Will Rogers presented Blue Boy to
- the Future Farmers of the state after -the film was made. What
'. a lot of rejoicing that caused amengthe ag. students ot the state.
The mst famous nog in the world was theirs, and they visioaed
. painting a Hampshire band around thousands ot descendants.
It was perhaps the finest breeding opportunity ever offered, be
cause Blue Boy was a champion la show rings before fie became "
- champion, in the films. j
"But Hollywood got ahn, as It has so many others: Bine
Boy had no well days after leaving Hollywood. His feet hurt him
until he disliked to staad on them. A human being might -have
, called it goaty and been somewhere sear the truth. Actually Blue
Bay had led too easy and too fat a life. He had been held in show
condition too long. He went Hollywood. And he .passes on with,
very few descendants behind him la California.

"I'm not sure your Ellen ap-

gravely to Stanley across the little
table,
Tm not sure I do myself." She
met his eyes with a certain brave
directness. She felt more sure of
things this morning. She could
think more clearly, look at him
without that foolish feeling of suf

for the time being she felt safe
from the assault of his lips, his

"Yen don't get used to being in

Please believe that."
You're very expert about this

He grinned at her briefly. "It's

Tve never loaded myself down with

her gently. "Try to let yourself
go, Stanley youTl find it much the

"You've had lots of experience,

thing twisted suddenly like a sharp
little knife.
"I suppose I have one way or

ot the river; the effect of the
south winds upon the lake above,
all together, have furnished this
singular spot of the earth with
unusual requisites for Indian sac

their Kamookumchux (God); to
fish, and hold councils; believ

the rock are the footprints ot
God, and that th rough hewa
stone in the river is His Image.
"The people who inhabited this
place were ot a somewhat differ

dians ot America. They were
formerly known as the Lalacas.
They claimed to be the children
ot God, having among them tra

any written history of man. That
they were- different- from other
Indians was declared by the Mo
