government, told a crowd hero that
Germany wants peace. "We shall not
tire ,of telling the world that Ger
many want3 peace, and must have
peace; that no national can gain any
thing by another war and that it
would be madness to plunge into
fresh disaster while not yet recov
ered from the last one," he said.
Push Out Credit
Roosevelt's Plea
to the Bankers
That Rather Than Putting Currency
Inflation Into Effect, Declared
Present Program.
Washington. President Roosevelt
and Government financial leaders
mapped out their program for credit
expansion in a lengthy white house
conference that centered on release
of funds in closed banks. .
It was emphasized both by the
president and the conferees that no
new moves' other than reinforcing
the nation's credit structure were in
contemplation. Thi3 'was accepted
generally as defintely eliminating at
this time any inflation of the cur
rencv. It means the government is
going to use every power to put into
circulation money now lying idle in
bank tills and funds locked up in
closed banks.
Mr. Roosevelt was primarily in
terested in co-ordinating all of the
banks. He wants the 4 to 5 billion
dollars now locked up in these In
stitutions to be made available as
soon as possible. An early announce
ment appeared in prospect, but just
what the president has in mind was
withheld.
Leaving the white house, Woodin
said, "Everything looks very hope
ful." What the administration is parti
cularly concerned in now is that the
banks are sure of the support which
government financial agencies to as
sure full support to agriculture and
business in his price lifting recovery
program. Secretary of the Treasury
Woodin and Secretary of Agriculture
Wallace headed the group which met
for almost three hours with the presi
dent. The presence of Attorney General
Cummings, together with the heads
ol the Reconstruction Finance cor
poration, the budget, the deposit in
surance corporation and other finan
cial agencies led to the definite con
clusion that Mr.' Roosevelt is going
to take quick action on the closed
the government is ready to give. The
law providing for insurance of bank
deposits becomes' effective Jan. 1. Cer
tain requirements must be met by
banks which are not members of the
federal reserve system to become eli
gible for this.insuTanee! State 'Jour

BONUS NOT TO BE PRESSED
Chicago. An agenda of 100 sub
jects ranging from disability pay
ments to .fighting crime was an
nounced for the American Legion's
national convention In Chicago next
week. National officials of the le
gion expressed a belief that demands
for payment of the bonus would en
ter the program only casually. They
said a resolution asking "payment
of the adjusted service certificates as
soon as governmental finances per
mit" probably would be adopted.
The program calls for adequate
hospitalization, care for widows and
orphans and replacement of the 25
percent cut in disability allowances
made. last March.
Under the heading of American
ism will come a resolution opposing
United States recognition ' of soviet
Russia and others suggesting means
of opposing the spread of commun
ism.

ICSES PUTS MEN ON SHIFTS
Washington. Day and night
shifts for the public works adminis
tration were ordered by Secretary
Ickes, the administrator, to put new
speed into the drive for more rapid
spending of the $1,600,000,000 al
lotted so far for Job-giving projects.
An announcement said the day, night
and Sunday work on a single shift
basis which has been in effect for
weeks "was exhausting the staff."
Lack of office space for more work
ers during the day influenced the de
cision to install two shifts of work
ers so that all facilities now at hand
would be utilized.
The public works board at its
meeting Tuesday is'expectsd to ap
prove more than fifty nonfederal
projects. The public works admin
istration has determined to allot as
far as possible the money remain
ing in its $3,300,000,000 fund to non
federal projects. Col. II. M. Waite
urged nonfederal organizations to
hasten their applications since fed
eral agencies were seeking addition
al funds and promising to spend them
immediately if obtained.
