Special Attention Given to Mail Order Economy Drug & Music Co. Pendleton, Oregon By M. A. TRAYLOR Second ' Vice President American Bankers Association. There has been no more Important event for the American farmer and stock man since the Armistice than the recent return of Great Britain to a gold standard. It s-nms a long dls tpice from (be Mon t. na farm to the gold vaults of the Hqnlr rt f T"-i rrl -i Ti ( I but the price the Ttlfc- 1 farmer gets for his SSSSnfc. jtfSillMr I tvhnnt nnri rnttlp Hp- pends not a little on that gold. The farmer sells his wheat to the elevator man and yet the real buyer, in many cases. Is an Englishman, a Frenchman, a German, or an Italian. About one-third of the wheat crop is usually sold abroad and this part Is a large factor In fixing the price of the entire crop. Between the farmer and the foreign buyer there are many s'epe. In recent years the most im portant step has been that at which the foreign buyer has to pay the American exporter, for the interna tional mechanism of payment has been badly, out of order because Europe was off the gold standard. It was Just as though an English buyer drove up to your farm house, bar gained for your wheat and drew up the contract. But when you dlscnssed payment, he said: "I'm sorry I haven't any good United States money to pay you with; 111 have to pay you in my English paper money, which Isn't worth its face value In gold. I don't know what It may be worth next week, but that Is yonr risk." A Deadly Foe of Trade How many would be willing to sign contracts on this basis? Yet that Is the way most of the world's" trade has had to be carried on since the Armis tice. In practically all countries ex cept the United States the currencies have had no fixed value In gold, but have changed in value from day to day. Whenever one country sold any thing to another country, somebody had to take the risk of loss because the value of the money might change before payment was made. Such un certainty of payment Is a deadly foe of trade, and people were afraid to do any larger International business than they had to. Exports of food stuffs from the Unit ed States fell from two and a half billion dollars in 1919 to eight hundred millions In 1923, and the difficulties of European buyers in making satisfac tory payment for American farm prod ucts was one of the large factors in the drop in the prices of farm prod ucts. But now the recent action of Great Britain In declaring that It will again redeem its paper money In gold means that British buyers of Amer can products can pay for them with money which is accepted the world over at Its face value In gold. With the return of Great Britain to the gold standard, a majority of the countries of Europe have paper currencies equal to gold. How Reserve Banks Helped American bankers have assisted In the British return to the gold standard by giving a 1100,000,000 credit to the British government. But more Impor tant than this was the action of the Federal Reserve Banks in granting the Bank of England material co-opara-tlon. They placed $200,000,000 gold at the disposal of the Bank of England for two years, to be used by it, If nec essary, In maintaining the gold stand ard. The readiness of the Reserve Banks thus to co-operate was an. Im portant Influence In the willingness of the British to take this all Important step. This action of the Reserve Banks was a most constructive step In aid of American farmers and producers who will benefit greatly by the re moval of this element of uncertainty from their export transactions. If all the sins of omission and commission charged againts the Federal Reserve System by banker, business man, live stock man or political blatherskite In the last five years were true, and prac tically none of them are, the service rendered commerce and Industry by the System In connection with the res toration of the gold standard In so large a part of the world would far ontwelgh any mistakes that those In charge of the System may have made. No banker, business man or farmer should permit any self serving declar ation by favor seeking demagogue to swerve him from a determination to see that the System is maintained for the future welfare of the country. Fundamentally conditions are very sound and we are doing a ve-y large volume of business, no little part of which Is dne to the equalising and stabilizing effect exercised by the Fed eral Reserve System on the credits of the country. Throughout all the stress of the last five years there have been no times of either stringency or ple thora of bank credit Rates have run along on a rather lerel keel and In my judgment hare had much to do with the stable volume of business which we bare enjoyed, and which Is quite contrary to the old experience of the aftermath of panics. With a credit structure such as only the Federal Reserve System can guarantee. I feel we need have no apprehension but on the contrary sound optimism for the Millinery Opening Sept, 9th Velvet & Felt Combinations FALL MODELS Hals this year you will find are more moderately priced than for several seasons.
