BAINS BRING NEW HOPE
Washington Moderate to heavy
rains brought new hope to the dry
northwest states, but parts of the
south are feeling the pinch of mois
ture shortage. The weather bureau
said recent falls had "afforded sub
stantial relief in Washington. Ore
gon, northern Idaho, western and
and southeastern Montana, and most
of North Dakota."
"In addition." the bureau said,
"the moisture situation is now ra
ther markedly improved in much of
South Dakota and more generally in
Minnesota, Wisconsin and Iowa."
In the south, however, rainfall
was again spotted and the bureau
said: "Many places are in need of
moisture, especially from western
North Carolina and Tennessee south
ward, including about one half of
Kentucky." About two-thirds of
Georgia was said to be experiencing
a "rather severe drouth."
Rains in the northwest in some
places came too late to benefit ma
terially small grains, especially those
on the lighter soils, the bpreau said,
but they helped pastures, late grains
and minor crops of all kinds.

Stability is the prime need of the
silver situation today, declared Sir
Arthur Salter, former head of the
economic and financial section of the
League of Nations, in an interview
with a representative of The Chris
tian Science Monitor. Sir Arthur
ranged himself both against a "sil
ver loan" to China sponsored by the
special subcommittee of the United
States Senate in January and against
the proposal backed by Washington
of a government conference to dis
cuss the situation.
"Conferences are all very well to
implement and settle the details of
cut-and-dried schemes," he declared. :
"But as a rule they are not much
use when no real basis of agreement
has been found beforehand."
Sir Arthur, who is in Boston on his
way back to Europe, was speaking
with the background not merely of
his wide experience at Geneva but as
one who. at the request of the gov
ernments concerned, has just investi
gated the situation in India and
China, the world s two chief markets
for silver. He is convim-ert. he said,
that China does not need more sil
ver. What she. does need is to know
that there will be no more wide var
iations in price, either up or down.
For the past few months the price
of silver has remained comparatively
stable. If it can be pegged where it
is today, the Chinese economic situa
tion will be greatly benefited, Sir
Arthur believes.
Asked how stability could he se
cured without an international con
ference. Sir Arthur pointed -jut thai
it i- not in the interests of the Indian ;
Government, which has large stocks
of silver to dispose of . to'do anything
which will send prices any lower. The
chief thing to guard against, in his
opinion, is a temporary rise in silver
values. It would encourage the pro
dticers to Increase the output and
this would be disastrous.
A voluntary agreement on output
among the silver producers them
selves is the first step to be taken.
Sir Arthur thinks, after which he
hinted it might not be difficult for
the Government of India and the
producers to get together and de
vise a plan by which new production
and Indian stocks could share the
world market until the surplus has
been gotten rid of.
Sir Arthur does not blame the sil
ver crisis primarily on overproduc
tion so much as on a change in the
world demand. He has pointed out
that India's currencv is no longer
based on silver but on gold. So are
the currencies of Japan, the Philip
pines, the Federated Malay States.
Indo- China and Siam. In Europe,
too, several countries have substitut- I
ed nickel for silver in their token
coinage.
He advocates research to get rid of
the disadvantage of silver such as
its liability to tarnish, and publicity
to make its merits better known.
