Turmoil Caused
(Continued from Page 1)
The pound is not convertible
into other currencies without a
treasury permit and dollars may
not be taken out of the country
unless the treasury approves.
The new, cheaper pound
means that Americans may buy
Scotch whiskey, English tweeds,
Staffordshire china and many
other British products at lower
prices.
By mid-day 2,000 stockbrok
ers and clerks jammed into the
street in front of the stock ex
change. They had an open air
market, going especially in
booming gold shares.
In the confusion prices quot
ed in one knot of brokers often
were as much as thre shillings
higher or lower than those 20
yards away. South African
gold shares shot up over last
Friday's official closing quota
tions. Randfontein Gold Mines
jumped from 18 shillings to 25.
The conservative Financial
Times, which conceded that the
pound has long been overval
ued said the cut "is considerably
greater than was needed."
Cripps' explanation was:
"It was essential to fix the
new rate at a level we could
hold; we can always let the rate
go up if events prove that we
have gone down a bit too far

Cody wound up their annual two-
southern Canada.
Of the 155 Cody clansmen in
Salem for the family affair, the
one who most vividly recalled
Buffalo Bill was William Cody
Boal, of Bellingham, Wash., a
grandson of the famous William
Cody.
Boal, who like dozens of his
relatives has the middle name of
Cody, lived and traveled with
Col. Cody for many years.
Boal refers to Buffalo Bill as
the Co'oncl." Other members
of the clan call him Col. Cody.
None of them ever refer to him
by the more familiar name of
Buffalo Bill.
When Boal was of pre-school
age, both his parents died,
Boal moved to live with his
grandfather. From then until
Col Cody died, Boal lived with
him constantly and traveled
with his wild west circus.
At Sunday's picnic, Boal told
his relatives about "the Col
onel." Boal said that Col. Cody
was an easy-going, well-mannered,
soft-spoken gentleman
in private life, a direct contrast
to the picture one may have
formed of him in reading history
books of his many colorful and
thrilling exploits as an out-
doorsman.
Boal, who was present when
Col. Cody died, probably knew
the famous American more In
timately than anyone else.
The descendants of Col. Cody
organized in 1925, and have
held an annual reunion every
year since. The reunion just
completed was the second ever
held on the Pacific coast. The
other was in Hanford, Calif., in
1939. Next years gathering
will be conducted in a Cana
dian city.
Harry Arthur Cody of Ripon.
Wis., was elected honorary pres
ident of the Cody clan at a Sat
urday business meeting at the
Chamber of Commeree, and R.
ErrJest Edwin Cody of Ann Ar
bor, Mich., was named president.
Following Saturday's business
session the Cody party toured
the capitol building, then held
their annual banquet and enter
tainment program at the Cham
ber of Commerce.
A memorial service at the
chamber topped Sunday morn
ing's program, while the Para
dise Island picnic (no buffalo
meat served) concluded the re
union Sunday afternoon.
Dies of Heart Attack George
A. Morton of Bremerton, Wash.,
the husband of the former Eileen

attack in Bremerton la'e last

Surviving besides the wife is a

Frank Morgan,
Film Star, Dies
Hollywood. Sept. 19 WIS
The movie industry and fans
throughout the nation today
mourned the
death of Frank
Morgan, beloved,
comedian whose
sly chuckle and
skillful double-,
talk carried himj
through nearly
four decades of
fame.
Morgan died
in his sleep at
his Beverly Hills
mansion yester
1-reink MoriMB
day. He was 59. A doctor said
death apparently resulted from
heart attack. His wife of 35
years, Alma, found him dead
when she awoke at noon.
"He just went to sleep and
never woke up," said his busi
ness manager, Mrs. Margerite
Cerry.
Funeral arrangements were
incomplete.
Morgan had spent Saturday
evening at home, holding a quiet
dinner party with his son
George, 32, his wife and two
house guests, and went to bed
about 11.
Friends 'said his health had
never appeared better. Recently
he had taken up swimming in
addition to his long-standing
sport as a yachtsman.
Steel Strike
(Continued from PaR 1)
"We are one day nearer a set
tlement," he added cheerfully.
Ching made it plan that he
regarded the first meeting
more or less exploratory and
that he was not discouraged by
his initial failure.
The presidential fact-finding
board recommended September
10 against giving the steelwork
ers a fourth-round wage in
crease, but it proposed insurance
and pension benefits that would
cost the steel companies 10
cents an hour for each employe.
Murray, who heads the CIO
Stcelworkers, made it plain that
he was not demanding an imme
diate grant of the welfare rec
ommendations as the price of
peace in the industry.

Chain Reaction
(Continued from Pare 1)
Both factors more exports ts
America and less imports from
America should help England
balance her dollar accounts,
which are lopsided in America's
favor and are cutting into Brit
ain's reserve of dollars and gold
at a fearful rate.
American officials and tome
diplomatic ones made these ob
servations, applying especially to
Britain but also to the other de
valuing countries:
1. Imported British goods
won't drop 30 M percent for Am
ericans at retail. Motor cars may
drop sharply in price, as Sir
Stafford suggests. But tariffs,
sales costs, importers' mark-ups
and other cost factors on this
side won't be touched.
British textiles, chinaware and
cutlery will come down, it is pre
dicted. But Scotch whiskey may
or may not follow suit. The
U. S. is the great consumer and
the price of Scotch is geared to
what the U. S. will pay.
Import Prices to Rise
2. The price of British im
ports will rise; every pound will
buy fewer American dollars
worth. Sir Stafford told the
English yesterday the net in
crease will be slight. But the
monetary fund has warned him
and other European finance min
isters to keep an anti-inflationary
fire hose handy.
The British devaluation is re
garded here as temporary relief
which must be backed up by
these measures:
First, the 10-polnt program of
tariff revision, liberalized Mar
shall plan aid, colonial develop
ment and other steps agreed at
the American-British-Canadian
crisis talks which ended a week
ago.
Second, an aggressive drive to
modernize British factories, cut
production costs, boost trade
within Europe, and break into
the American market on a large
scale.
