WASHINGTON. Oct. 26 The Roose
relt industrial recovery program na
been far more successful fundamen
tally than the public generally gives
the president credit for.
4 Unprejudiced figures prove it.
They aro contained in' the monthly
fool-proof statistics first devised by
Mr. Hoover to show where we stand
and whither we are drifting. All
officials use them as the best business
barometer.
This month they show slow, sure
progress In righting the economic
ehlp on an even keel. Industrial
production and factory employment
are only S points apart. Payrolls still
are lagging about 20 per cent behind,
but improvement Is noted.
Sad bide.
Aside from pay rolls, the figures
enow that the big worry now U sales.
Department store volume has been
eliding alnce August. The figures
enow a drop from 77 to 6fl. They are
based on dollar sales. When you con
eider that prices have Increased In
the same period, possibly as much fts
17 per cent, you will see that the
new purchasing power must be flow
ing down a rathole.
The "buy now' campaign may help
that, but Mr. Roosevelt's tricks with
the dollar will help it more.
There Is nothing which will start
buying like the promise of still
higher prices. Mr. Roosevelt has
promised they will be up around 30
per cent before he will stabilize. At
least that la the logical figure to
be deduced from his statements.
He says -he want a 1026 price level
That is 30 per cent higher than the
level now. Whether he can accom-
k plish It Is another thing.

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

By MORRIS WATSON
NEW YORK, Oct. 28. (P) Saying
that he aaw no loafers in Moscow.
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

Olenn Clark, 30, who Tuesday shot
and wounded In mistake for a deer,
his hunting companion, Homer O.
Olllctte. 31, la held on a warrant
charging hunting without an Oregon
llconse. He la held In tne city jnu
pending a hearing. The arrest waa

after the accident, of which Clark
did not Inform them.
The district attorney's office aald
todav thev would Investigate the

session of the grand Jury,
dinette was reported by Dr. W. A.
Bishop, his physician, as "progressing
satisfactorily, and will Be out or me
hospital In a day or ao." The bullet
struck a glancing blow on the cheat,
and by a mere chance of fate waa
not fatal. The lunge were nos pene
trated. Hemorrhages following the
accident caused weakness from loss
of blood.
Both Olllette and Clark are real
dents of Alva, Okla., and on tneir

p. m. Tuesday, first word was phoned
to the courthouse. Dr. Bisnop. act
ing county physician, during the ab
sence of Dr. O. I. Drummond, was
dispatched to the acene. No. report
was made to the state police or
sheriff. When Clark was arrested
afterwards for hunting license viola
tion the atate police were not advised
of the accident.
According to the story told by Clark
to Dr. Bishop, the two left Cascade
Gorge to hunt In the nearby moun
talna, and became separated. Clark
says he noticed a movement In the
brush. He watched It for several
mlnutea and when positive he was
ahootlng at a deer, fired. He then
realized his mistake and rushed to
Gillette's side, rondcring what tem
porary aid he couldi and summoning
help.
It wss necessary to carry Olllette
on a litter for a mile, before he
could be placed In an auto, aa the
country Is exceedingly rough.

flTNWlLL.-
SANTA MONICA, Cal., Oct,
25. Mr. Roosevelt is the only
man who can raise the stock
market without putting up the
money.
The market not only operates
on 0. P. M. (other people s
money) but O. P. B. (other peo
ple's rumors). A war in Eur
ope would mean nothing to the
stock market (provided it act
ually happened) but let a
rumor get out that Mr. Ford
was building a six-door sedan
or that the present government
was going to recognize Tam
many Hall or that Bernard
Baruch was growing a beard,
any of these rumors, and wheat
would jump 10 points, Ameri
can Can 8, American T. & T. 9.
So the only thing can break
the stock market is s fact.
