POT 1M LMU ffl mm rn s nn ft Paul Mall on By PAUL MALLON. WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 12. Those In the know here think that President Roosevelt's promise of a reasonable In crease in prices la the most import ant news that has come out of the White House In months. The casual way In which It was made heightened the tremendous Implications be hind It. No one needed spyglass to sea that It meant the new dealers are resuming a tech nique they dropped last spring. Until then they had all been predicting higher prices. It helped business. If consumers believe prices are going up they will buy. And when a president promise higher prices the consumers are very likely to take hla word for It, especially when that president ha all the powers Mr. Roosevelt now has to make his prophecy come true. The drouth and the price-boost in 5 result of the NRA were supposed to have been the cause of Mr. Roosevelt putting the price question in the Ice box six months ago. The fact that he Is bringing It out . now is more than a hint that he Is going to warm up the cold potatoes, tnd what la more Important that he will throw some more lard on the skillet. FULFILLMENT OF Instructions Kidnaper Care fully Followed, Is 'State mentHint .More Than One Involved in Case What kind of lard It will be Is not hard to guess. It could be further gold devaluation or silver, devalua tion. Both have to come some time. The logical thing to do would be to devalue the silver dollar to the same extent that the gold dollar, has been devalued. That would net the treas ury a cool theoretical protlt of !, 000,000. aside from Its hypodermic effect on business. Then the president would be fp to squeeze about 0 cents jnore out of both the gold and silver dollars at any later time when he may think It advisable to create a fresh Infla tionary psychology. But those things are -really not Im mediately important. The big thing la that the White House haa revived the talk about auch things. That will do more to stimulate buying than any subsequent monetary legerde main. The mere fact that the president lets it be known that he thinks prices should be higher will make prices higher. Indirectly it tella people to buy now and avoid higher prices later That Increases demand, and an In creased demand will automatically Increase prices, for. regardless or all you hare heard from the theorist, the good old law of supply and de mand la still tn effect. And don't thing the White House did not know that when It let . the price statement out. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 13. (AP) The ransom demanded for Mrs. Alice Speed Stoll haa been paid and the family awaits the kidnaper's ful fillment of promises, was the an nouncement here today by Berry V. Stoll, husband of the young society woman who was' slugged and forced from their home late Wednesday. The ransom note had named the demand as 150.000 but the Stoll an nouncement did not mention the sum. The formal statement said: "we have carefully followed in structions, met all ransom require ments, and are awaiting fulfillment of promises. "The parties may act freely with out fear or hindrance. "Berry V. Stoll." Fate Rests on Promise The statement that all ransom re quirements had been met waa taken to mean definitely that the money had been paid, and the fate of pretty Alice Stoll hung for the time being on whether the one who made the ransom demand would keep hla pro mise. Whether Stoirs announcement meant the money actually had been given the man who kidnaped Mrs. Stoll or had been given to persons designated by him, remained unex plained, as there waa no comment when the formal statement was given to newspapermen, tn Stoll's behalf. The reference 1n "trie Stoll an nouncement to "parties" waa the first intimation that more than one per son had been Involved In the kidnap ing of the former Bryn Mawr student and Junior Jjeague member, daughter of William S. Speed, retired capital ist. Home Iwlnted The Stoll family obtained a com plete Isolation or Berry Stoll's 16 acre estate yesterdny atter a day of futile waiting for a contact by the kidnapers. Through list night they waited for word, the place standing almost deserted, with extra telephone lines Installed. Tills morning Berry Stoll. hatless and apparently greatly excited, roar ed out of the driveway In a roadster. Another man waa with him. The car swung down Lime Kiln road, which borders the estate and headed south into Kentucky. The emissaries took the narrow, winding, irregular trail at high speed, not slowing up for turns or the frequent hill.

(Associated Press Photo) IN NRA POLICY IS Another hidden point in Mr. Roose velt's strategy la that he selected the most opportune time of the year for the price warmover. Thla Is buying season, not only foT individuals, but for business houses. But one thing should not be for gotten. It Is that Mr. Roosevelt wents a reasonable advance within reason able ground. If profiteers take ad vantage of the situation for gentle extortions, they will merely bs killing their own game, because the president will undoubtedly then be compelled to put the price policy back In the cooler. One of the foremost new dealers re cently gave out advance copies or an Important apeech and then sent out word to eliminate a paragraph of It, This paragraph ridiculed the idea that the government could or would curtail expenses. Insiders say the elimination was not suggested by Mr. Roosevelt person ally. Apparently, the president did not read the speech, but someone able to speak for him did. and advised the change. That Is another Indication thst things are going to be different after election. The new dealers who rale the se curities exchanges chuckled with g'.ee when a Boston public utility recently applied for a government O. K. on its financing. It wss a case Just exactly like that of the Brooklyn-Manhattan Transit tn New York, but the Boston lana chose to submit rather than fight. The case Involved 820.OOO.0OO of Edison E'.ectrlc securities, all of which are owned by Bostontana. The company pointed out that It cot 12.000 to prepare the application. The financing unque.st'onably will :e approved w.th:n 20 days The amus ing point shout it is thst the Boa tnnlani decided to pay the new deal price while the New Yorkers WA spend many times 112.000 righting It Is cheaper to submit thin to protest. WASHINGTON, Oct. 12. (APW Business was told emphatically today by Clay Williams, NRA chairman, that the new governing board would not make "any aweeplng, broad changes" in price fixing policies. As1 in the case of production con trol, the work week and the position of small industries under NRA, Wil liams said these Issues were problems listed for consideration and will be "worked out by a specific proposition In specific Industries aa they arise." Williams met reporters formally for the first time sine taking office shortly after a White House confer ence had! decided to drop suggestions I frip orontlncr' ' urtftmt ' liiritrlft.1 branch of NRA In favor of a coop erative working agreement between the Blue Eagle organization, the Jus tice department and federal trade commission.

(APLS,eu ator Lewis of Illinois, chairman of the Democratic senatorial campaign committee said In a statement today no changes In the value of the dollar or other Inflationary moves were be ing contemplated by the administra tion.
