Area At Craterian -Suskika" the magna-color talking mm, proaucea by the Shasta Cascade Wonderland association will be shown for the first time to a Medford audi ence today at Hunt's Craterian thea ter, It was announced by chamber of commerce officials yesterday. The film according to those who have aeen It is one of the most beautiful acenlc productions ever presented In Med ford, and Crater Lake In Its winter and aummer setting playa a very im portant part In the picture. The Medford Chamber of Commerce is a member of the Shasta Cascade Wonderland association and contribu ted funds toward the production of the picture, which it la expected will be ahown to mllliona of people thru out the United States during this year. It la expected that the picture will create a vast amount of tourist travel tor the area between Crater Lake and Mount Lassen. The picture will be shown for four days, it was anounc ed. 1 their prices at once. Other, will fol low as rapidly as competitive condi tions will permit. In the course of time, undoubt edly, the result of reducing the value of the dollar will be aa upward move ment In the value of good, and serv ices aa expreaaed In terms of money. ILL that help? well, If the dollar of tomorrow la to be worth only HALF aa much as the dollar of today, H will pre aumably take two dollar, tomorrow to do the work that ONE does, today. So, you see. If you are to benefit, you will have to scheme aome way to get two of ttiese cheaper dollars to take the place of the one dearer dollar you now have. THOSE who can, aa already stated, will get the two dollars by dou bling their prices. Those who can double the price of what they sell before prices of what they have to BUY are doubled will benefit. Anybody can see that. Those who CAN'T double the price of what they sell before price, of what they have to buy are doubled will bo hurt. That la equally obvious. SOME prices will go up Immedi ately. The stock market, for ex ample, rises at once In response to the mere PROSPECT that money la to be cheaper. Stock prices are ex tremely liquid, and rise and fall easily-Other prlcea will rise very slowly, because of competitive conditions. If you raise your price and your com petitor DOESNT, ,he will get the business and all you will get will be grief. Thla business of raising prices by lowering the vslue of the money Is not as simple as It looks. M AMONG the prices that will rise most slowly Is the price of la- ' bor. Increased wagea have to be se-1 cured by a process of negotiation, and that takes time. I In any form of Inflation, those I who work for wagea are the first sufferers. They get no more dollars at first, and the dollara they have buy less. V BY VARYING Vie gold content of the dollar. It Is hoped to flatten out some of the rise and fall of prlcea. That la what Is mesnt by the -commodity dollar," of which you have read In the papers. Its purpose Is to STABILIZE prices. YOUR Idea, Just offhand, no doubt, ts that stabilizing prlcea la a good thing. Perhaps It Is. But If we stabilize prices, we eliminate speculation. No body la going to speculate If he knows that the price la going to remain about the aame. Speculation has played a big role In buslnesa for hundreds of yean. Just how we would get along with out It, at least at first, nobody knows for sure. Tftere hss been little speculation In potatoes this year, and everybody knowa what happened to the potato market. WH HAT Is here said Is not Intended as criticism of the President's plan to aid restoration of prosperity by revaluation of the dollar. The old, system of ft hard and in flexible dollar hasn't been any too successful. It has caused vast suf fering, especially to those who bor row when prices are high end have to repay w.hen prices are low. Perhaps a flexible dollar a "rub ber" dollar, the cynics call .It may be better. We can only find out by trying, and President Roosevelt Is to be commended for having the courage to try. BUT it la Just as well to remember that prosperity can't be created Instantly by the stroke of a pen. We can't vote ourselves rich overnight. Increasing prices by decreasing the value of money may ultimately be beneficial; at least nearly .everybody has observed that in high price com munities, such as- mining camps, business la apt to be active, wfeere as In low price communities It is not so active. But the process of readjustment to the new value of money will be comparatively slow and not alto gether painless process.. We shall bft less likely to be disappointed If realize that from the beginning. If we expect too much TOO SOON, we shall be disappointed. Wool Price Gains. BOSTON, Jan. 30. (AP) (0. 8. Dept. Agr.)

So, alnce It la the gold back of It that gives value to the paper dollar, It Is ei-1 pected that the purpchaslng power ! of the dollar will fall. The purpose back of this reduction of the atid content of the dollar Is to cause prlcea to rise. WHY will reduction of the gold content of the dollar cause prices to rliet f The answer to that question Is quite simple.
