Would Repeal Roosevelt's
Money Power
To the editor:
A highly important matter is
before congress, one that may
be overlooked by the public be
cause of the war news a bill
to renew on June 30, for a per
iod of two years, the president's
power to devalue the dollar
nine points lurtner man in
1934.
The enclosed article in Life
(issue May 16), written by Harry
Scherman. Dointa out the con
tradiction In the fiscal policy of
the administration, in again
making this request of congress,
and its deleterious effect upon
the long-term credit of the gov
ernment. As you may know, this com
mittee has repeatedly opposed
this executive power to devalue;
and it has recently been joined
in this position by all the re
sponsible officials of the fed
eral reserve system, in their
Joint report to congress on Jan
uary 1 last.
Vigorous protest, by those
who recognize the crucial na
ture of this Issue, may be ef
fectual at this moment. From
out talks with senators and
representatives, we can assure
you that most of them are eager
to obtain the views of those
who have given thought to this
matter.
The most promising action at
this time would be letters from
your readers, expressing their
views on renewing this grant
of executive power. Such letters
should be sent to the congress
men and the senators represent
ing your state and to the Sen
ate Committee on Banking and
Currency, Senate Office Build
ing, Washington, D. C.

f BRAHAM LINCOLN, at Gettysburg.
ZJ sprce words to which h attached
QJ. n0 world-stirring significance. They
w.r merely an expression of
thoughts which, to him, were a creed. They
were nothing new to him. Yet students and
practitioners of liberty took up those words
and showed them to the world as' America's
own expression and interpretation of belief.
Lincoln's simple statement of what he consid
ered as known facts thus became a flaming
pennant that proclaims the spirit of the Stars
and Stripes! With such a creed for our land
It leads us to resolre more firmly that these
priceless possessions shall not parish from the
earthl
