MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 31, 1933. PAGE FTvTD AMERICAN TRADE AGAINSTJOLLAR Order ot 40,000 Tons of Rails From U. S. First In ' dlcation of Revival Cof fee Is . Key to Market By Paul Sander RIO DE JANEIRO AP) The po sition of American business In Brazil, about to be strengthened by a reci procity trade treaty, already has ex- i perlenced considerable Improvement through the cheaper dollar and a stronger mil rots. The outstanding Indication of the trend was a recent order by the Paullsta railway company of Sao Paulo for 40.000 tons of American rails, the biggest order In several years. When the depression and ex change tightness were most acute, Europe got what rati orders were placed. Brazil's Coffe is Key Dependent to a large extent on American coffee purchases, Brazil frequently has expressed it Inten tion of giving the United States con cessions In return for Its .coffee mar t ket. The United States for years has beld first place In exports to Brazil, but the balance. In favor of B azll is about three to one. Rising coffee prices in the United States, enabling Brazil to strengthen the mllrels without decreasing the mllrels value of exports, raised this country's buying power. The exchange tightness here has eased since the government In June completed liquidation of a London credit of about 932,500,000. and then made arrangements gradually to thaw frozen foreign money. Pound Balances Dollar The cautious, steady policy In strengthening the mllrels In relation to both the dolUr and the pound was Indicated during recent dollar fluctu ations abroad. For many months the exchange monopoly had the mllrels pegged to the dollar at 1SJ mllrels. When the dollar went off gold, It continued to be quoted at 18.3, and official quo tations for the pound were strength ened. When the pound reached 60 mll rels, however, and the dollar weak- ! ened, the pound was held steady ! and the dollar declined slightly. Then ! when the dollar gained a trifle, the dollar held steady, and the pound rate was decreased. With the paper mllrels a trifle stronger, the price of the artificial gold mllrels, Used to calculate tariff rates, was dropped slightly. Money Bootleggers Hit No one factor was pronounced, but the combination of the cheaper dol lar, the stronger paper mllrels and the cheaper gold milrela meant a good deal. The dollar was selling on the boot leg market at twenty, not so long ago, when It was quoted officially at 13.3. When the dollar was quoted officially at IB 83 mllrels. It was sell ing on the bootleg market at 18.6. ROUGE FOR KNEES E LB TOUQUET. Tahc (UP) -Bathing girls who want to be fash lonable must rouge their knees as well as their cheeks and Hps.

Ore (UP) Oregon will toon be In step with th nation-wide movement to abol Itn the poor house. Making effective old-age pensions ha mad more progress In the last year and k half, than at any time during any similar period In history of the oountry. Oregon was on ot nine states wnicn enacted an old-age pension law tine January 1. Other states: Arizona, Arkansas. Indiana, Maine. Michigan, Nebraska, North Dakota, and Washington. Oregon's law, how ever, doe not go Into effeot until January 1, 1934. In 1932. 17 staves distributed 122,- 616.004 In old-age pensions, and as sisted 102.537 persons, an Increase of 86 per cent since 1931. Mora than 18 times at much was paid out In old-age pensions last year, a In 1930. The number ot pen sioners increased tenfold between 1930 tnd 1932. Federal statistician! reported to Oregon officials that the average monthly pensions In 1932 waa HB.ai, compared to 116.09 In 1931. In no state did th average pension grant ed equal the maximum allowable un der the law. Th coat ot th pension system per Inhabitant last year averaged 74 cents, ranging from three cents In Maryland to 11.38 In New fork. The average ootta for pension states In 1931 was 64 cents and the range was from alt cents In Maryland to 95 cents In New York. New York waa in the lead laet year among th states In th amount paid la pensions. California and Mas aachitsetta followed closely. T.he number of aged given assist ance Increased in 1932 In every state, except Maryland and Nevada. Largest increase occurred In Colorado. In this stat, desplt the faot that the num ber ot pension -pay tng counties fell from seven to tour, the number of pensioners more than tripled. During recent years, the trend In old-age pension legislation was to mako adoption of the eyatem manda tory upon th count). At end ot 1932, nine of the 17 laws were man datory and two other had been amendou to become compulsory at fu ture date. Oregon a well as th other eight state which passed laws this year, made adoption of th sys tem compulsory upon the counties. Another trend during th recent year was toward providing for atate aid for pensions. At end ot 2933, tlx state provided tor state assistance, two to th extent of one-third, two to ont-half, on to three-fourtha, and bn all of th coat. SIX out ot th niu laws passed this year pro. vide for state aid, excluding Oregon.
