PRICE FOR GOLD EIGHTEEN CENTS Daily Increase Not Promised Avowed Intention Raise Price of Commodities To Curb Profiteering SPOKANE, Wash., Oct. 26. ) Senator Burton K. Wheeler, (D., Mont.), predicted In an Interview here today that congress will paw some form of Inflation legislation either paper Inflation of silver In flation. "Silver inflation Is better than pa per inflation," he said, "for there is no limit to which printing presses can go, as certain European coun tries have shown us. while God has limited the amount of silver." WASHINGTON, Oct. 26 (AP) The administration sought to give in creased Impetus to Its price boosting program today by Increasing the price it will pay for newly mined gold by 18 cents an ounce over yesterday, the figure set being $31.54. It was asserted at the White House later that the Increase did not mean necessarily that there would be ft dally Increase. . Indications were voiced that so long as the American price keeps ahead of foreign market levels, a point may be reached when It will not be felt neces sary to Increase the quotation. Purchases of the metal will con- j tlnue on a dally basis. Yesterday, when this Roosevelt pol icy was Inaugurated, the domestic price was fixed at $31.36 against a London figure of $31.09. At exchange rate of $4.75. today's London quotation was $31.06. While this was a decrease of three cents, as compared with yesterday, there was actually an Increase in the London gold price 4n British cur rency. . ... It Jumped from 130 shillings, one pence, to 130 shillings, 0 pence. Vibrations In foreign exchange ac counted for the decrease in the dol lar value, Today'a price was determined by the committee appointed by the president to attend to this detail. The avowed administration aim la to raise commodity prices, especially for producers; but simultaneously at presidential behest the NHA has In the making the most elaborate system yet attempted to protect the con sumer against profiteering. It plana soon to set up commu nity boards to which persons who believe they are being overcharged can complain. Regulations will be laid down as to the manner In which such com plaints are to be Investigated, settled locally or referred up to regional au thorities and, If necessary, to Wash ington. Until this time the consumer angle has been submerged to an extent In the mass of urgent NRA work. FOREST HAY BIDS ARE OPENED PORTLAND, Oct. 26.

United States Senator Williams Mc Adoo of California returned from a short tour of Europe today and called the move of President Roosevelt o resume trade relations with Russia "very wise, indeed." In an interview given while the teampshlp Conte Dl fiavola made Its way from quarantine to Its dock, the senator said "there wna never any reason why recognition should have been withheld." "In the first place," he eaid, "It simply means the establishment of diplomatic relations which are ao necessary to intercourse to be carried on. It means the re-establishment of consular offices which are essen tial machinery for international trad?. "Russia is a large field for recip rocal trade. It Is Just the kind of trade we ought to have. "France, England and Italy all have recognized Russia. It must be borne In mind that recognition does not mean approval or a form of govern ment or of Russia's domestic insti tutions or of Russia's domestic af fairs. "From mv observations, I would say that Russia would be much pleas ed to have the United States' recog nition. They feel that their interest and our Interests do not collide any where. Senator McAdoo spent only a few days in Russia. He denied that his trip had any official connection, ex plaining "I was only a tourist.' "Of course, recognition Is an ex ecutive function," he said.
