Returns From Europe
Optimistic Over 1933
Prospects; Inflation to Aid
SEATTLE. May 8. (Special) Baslo
soundness of general European con
ditions with a prospect of rapid Im
provement as soon as the settlement
of currency and tariff problems have
effected a stabilization of world trade,
offers encouragement to American ex
porters. This Is the Impression of
J. A. Smith, export manager of Gwin,
White 6c Prince, Inc., packers of
Rogue River Valley pears, who re
turned to Seattle Saturday after a
four month's sojourn In Europe In
the Interests of his firm and Its ship
ping clients.
The trip Just concluded Is the third
which Mr. Smith has made abroad
since his association with Owln, White
As Prince, Inc., so he was able on
this visit, to measure many changes
that have taken place In the Euro
pean centers of trade.
During this trip Mr. Smith visited
the markets of 27 cities In the United
Kingdom, Norway. Sweden, Denmark,
Germany, Poland, Holland, Belgium
and France. In addition to the stimu
lation of immediate business an im
portant purpose of Mr. Smith's trip
was to study carefully European eco
nomic and political conditions, in
order to enable his organization to
determine a "long pull" policy for
the continued exploitation of these
markets for Pacific northwest fruit.
"The new Roosevelt administration
Is widely acclaimed by the European
press which views the president's an
nounced policies a direct aids to
the stabilization of the world's cha
otic conditions." he declares. "Among
the substantial elements of the trade
there Is a definite expression of opti
mism concerning the world economic
conference in London In June.
Off Gold to Help.
"In the United Kingdom, the
' largest single customer for northwest
fruits, there Is a feeling, quite gene
ral, of restlveness regarding the Ot
tawa agreement. The U. K. trade
feels that England has made a bad
bargain. However, the tariffs which
have resulted from Ottawa and ad
versely affect our trade with England,
are not considered so troublesome and
restrictive as exchange which penal
ized the United States to the extent
of approximately 25 per cent. Since
the abandonment of the gold stand
ard In the United States this fea
ture, which has resulted In the
strengthening of the pound sterling
in terms of dollars has alleviated the
situation to some extent. The equali
zation, or stabilization of exchanges,
therefore, plus whatever tariff adjust
ments may be made at the world eco
nomic conference will assist the
northwest's trade with the U. K."
Germany to Quiet Down.
Mr. Smith was In Germany shortly
after the election of the Hitler gov
ernment and during the time of the
primary formation of the govern
ments policies. During the Hitler
campaign decidedly nationalistic eco
nomic pronouncements were being
made. These are still In' evidence.
but there Is widely . expressed hope.
In Germany among the business peo
ple that with power the government
will become more conservative. "As
a matter of fact." he explains, "Hitler
has already Indicated, by action, his
willingness to accept the advice of
the sound business leaders of that
country. It is unfortunate that the
more spectacular portions of his cam
paign, such as the boycott of the
Jews, etc., must be carried out in
order to convince the people that
the government does what it prom
ises. It Is hoped therefore that pre
election promises which threatened to
some extent the trade between the
Pacific coast and Germany, and by
the some token promised. If applied
to all foreign commodities to com
pletely unsettle the economic sta
bility of Germany, will be consider
ably modified."
Export Trade Promising.
"Once these major problems have
been met by the stronger nations,"
Mr. Smith states, "it will Inevitably
follow that the smaller nations with
whom trade was restricted for the
past 18 months by exchange inequali
ties, tariff barriers, quotas, will again
be opened to Pacific coast commodi
ties Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Aus
tria. Hungary, Czechoslovakia.
"The general feeling, therefore, is
that with the settlement of these
troublesome matters export trade wlh
Europe holds promise of considerable
future expansion and deserves con
tinued preparation and study of mar
kets and methods."
European markets for apples and
penrs. particularly Prance, Germany,
Holland and the United Kingdom, are
appreciative of the high quality of
fruit from the Pacific northwest, Mr.
Smith reports. The pear market, he
states, has developed a surprising as
pect of stability and gives definite
promise of future expansion.

"SEND ME TO JAIL"
10 HOLDS GOLD
DENVER, May 8. (AP) Charles
S. Thomas, a former United States
senator, former governor of Colorado
and long time blmetalllst asks the
government to place him in the peni
tentiary for possessing 120 in gold.
The 84-year old statesman has
written to Ralph L. Carr. district at
torney, expersslng objections to the
order of President Roosevelt that all
gold be turned in to the government.
His letter reads:
"I am the owned and possessor
of one hundred and twenty dollars
(120) In gold, which I have acquired
in order to qualify myself for the
penitentiary, pursuant to the recent
edict of the president of the United
States.
"Being entitled, under the prevail
ing laws of the country to Its reten
tion, I shall not comply with the
presidential requirement and surren
der It to the authorities, preferlng to
use my few remaining years In test
ing the extent to which the executive
power can compel a citizen to comply
with Its demands. '
"I am, therefore, at your service as
desired."
Carr said he had received the letter
but would not discuss his plans.
GATES AWARE OF
The marriage of Miss Jane Mc
Ouat and W. H. Lydinrd In Grants
Pass Monday morning may have sur
prised a number of people In Med
ford, but not W. A. (Bill) Gates. In
fact, Bill expressed himself as not
being any more surprised at that
than at any other marriage.
"I've known about it for a long,
long time," reminisced Bill. "I knew
It before BUI did and before Jane
did. It was an Inevitable outcome."
And then Mr. Gates quoted Huxley.
Schopenhauer, Marx and Kant to
prove his point. Nobody In the of
fice followed him, so it was all right.
"Of course, my knowing all about
it, made it easier when they came
to spring It on me," continued Bill.
"I helped them spring It, and they
shared my surprise. The effect was
perfectly synchronized and absolute
ly shock proof."
Then he pulled one about having
the wedding gift all picked out.
"You see Bill Lydiard la a Scotch
man so he will appreciate It. I'm
going to present him with a pair of
homing pigeons."
