given an opportunity to combine the
two. Will It come again? Not until
times are better. It would take 800
tons 01 submarine, the price Is 13000
a ton. I'd welcome an opportunity
to try. Wllklns Is now In the south
wltfi Ellsworth. That Is all I have
heard."
It was Sir Hubert Wllklns' subma
rlne In which the trip to the North
Pole was attempted under the Ice
by Danenhower. Ellsworth was also
on the expedition. The boat lost Its
diving rudders and the Nautilus flop,
ped. No one was hurt but the trip
was ended.
'Jhrllllng Experience
"It was by far the most thrilling
experience of my naval career." the
commander declared.
During the world war, Commander
Danenhower was a member of Frank
lin D. Roosevelt's salvaging crew. The
president of the United States was
then assistant secretary of the navy
and organized the first salvaging
crew In American hlsUViy. Comman
der Danenhower was wreck-master of
the division. He was In charge of the
Favorite, based at Brest, and when
he recently came through the Pan
ama canal, sailing from France to
the Pacific coast, he saw her, still
in good conditions, now In the light
house service.
Before most people knew .that there
were submarines, Commander Dan
enhower was giving all his time to
the under-water boats, he admitted
yesterday. He began with them In
1909. Salvaging work was similar to
submarine duty, so one brought about
the other. Asked about deep sea
diving, the visitor from France de
scribed It as "the hardest work In
the world." He added that he had
only dived for Inspection, and then
spoke a good word for Frank Crllley.
"than whom there Is none better."
He was master diver on the Nautilus
and commands that title any place
where diving is done.
Americans Leaving France
Speaking of conditions In France,
Commander Danenhower stated that
the French are now living In great
fear that their country will go off
ttie gold standard. American Incomes
have already been cut 40 per cent
In FsrH, and many of the visitors
are moving homeward. In 1028, when
the value of the franc was lowered,
many undesirable results were real
lied. "Paris Is now the most expen
sive city in the world In which to
live, and If the franc were devalued
It would be much worse."
Packards are cheaper than Fords In
Paris. Gasoline Is priced high and
saturated with alcohol to use up
France's excess supply. Lotteries are
recognised as a form of revenue and
there Is very little unemployment,
and practically no drunkenness, al
though the liquor traffic la wide
open, the commander said yesterday,
summarising general conditions over
there. The Packard costs less be
cause It Is more expensive to oper
ate and few people want It. Licenses
are collected according to horsepower.
'On a Packard they amount to 70
three times a year.
Can Handle Liquor
One may alt down, stand up, go
to t,he cafe or the saloon to drink
liquor, any time of the day or night.
"There are no closing hours, but the
French have different drinking hab
its, wine and mild liquors: that's why
you don't see drunkenness."
Repeal of prohtbtilon here has been
an incentive for renewal of much
trade with France and rfio Is welcom
ing the opportunity to export her
wines, which "are undoubtedly good."
The Wisconsin, upon which Com
mander Danenhower and family had
passage. Is returning to Franco from
this coast loaded with wheat, frozen
fish, and apples, gathered up In
Washington and Oregon, he said yes
terday. Rescue Aids Perfected
After service In the world war,
' Commander Danenhower was associ
ated with the Simon Lake Torpedo
company, building for the United
States and Russia. After the loss of
the B-4 he did much Interesting ex
perimental work for the government,
seeking new rescue, principles for per
sons trapped In submarines. A great
deal, he explained, hna now been ac
complished along that line. The
thing Commander Danenhower la
most Interested In now, however, he
stated yesterday. Is salvaging oper
ations, especially those of the Ital
ians, who have gone further In this
direction than any other nationality.
Asked yesterday about his own na
tionality, while the topic waa -.ip,
Commander Danenhower stated that
he waa born In Maryland and raised
In Oswego, N. T., and that he felt
"right homey" when he came through
Oswego. Ore., en route to Medford.
Following a fortnight here, the
Danenhower will continue to San
Diego, then by motor to New York.
While here they are visiting the Jus.
H. Owens, Mrs. Danenhower being
Mrs. Owen's daughter.

Those Who View Outlay
With Alarm Overlook Fact
Treasury Cannot Go Broke
Odds With Roosevelt
WASHINGTON, Jan. 31. There are
many persons pf standing in Wash
ington who hold the view that the
vast governmental expenditure pro
gram will take us to an almost cer
tain collapse.
They believe such experndltures are
beyond what a business man calls "a
good business risk."
They believe that the expenditures
cannot be stopped and that the only
conclusion can be bankruptcy of the
treasury.
Seen As Political
T.helr view is not political, but
businesslike. They, are Judging the
financial condition of the government
as they would Judge the financial
condition of their own business.
There are several essential differ
ences. For one thing the treasury
of the United States can hardly go
bankrupt. With its existing unusual
powers over money, It could certainly
continue the existing rate of expendi
ture for an Indefinite period before
It was faced with the necessity of
Issuing greenbacks. No business -house
has the means to sustain Its credit
by such devices as the government Is
even now employing.
There Is another angle .which Is
more Important. All economists be
lieve better business la coming. (They
are so unanimous that their unanim
ity seems to be the only Just cause
for suspicion about their Judgment).
Expenditures likewise help to make
better business.
Priming Business Pump
Now If they "prime toe pump"
(the phrase Is Mr. Roosevelt's) and
help start a normal flow of business,
federal revenues will jump under ex
isting tax rates so fast that the pres
ident should be able to pull. himself
out of his deficit hole without diffl
cUty. But If we do not have better busi
ness, the need for expenditures will
Increase Instead of decreasing, and
revenues will decrease Instead of In
creasing. It Is a gamble and the odds seem
to be a little better t,han even that
Mr. Roosevelt will succeed.
