STABILIZATION
AWAITS ACTION
BY ALL OTHERS
Morgenthau Says U. S.
Dollar Sound as Is
And Hints no Hurry
To Change
WASHINGTON. May 14. UP)—
Secretary Morgenthau'* apeecb de
claring that the American dollar 1*
•'abfeoluteh sound” and that the
United State* 1* “not unwilling to
stabilize’’ under certain conditions
was widely regarded Tuesday as an
official New Deal reply to critics
who assert that an end to monetary
uncertainty Is needed to restore con
fidence
In Wall Street, as here a principle
question talked over Tuesday was the
probable effect of the speech on the
much-discussed restoration cm as
surances as to the future of the dol
lar In New York’s financial com
munity. some bankers and econo
mists said the speech should help
restore confidence, while other* said
they saw little meaning in it.
Not to Act Alone
What, if any, future moves the
speech portends was not made
known. All mdioations from adminis
tration sources have been that stab
ilisation was a topic for some time
In the future rather than the im
mediate present. Morgenthau’s
speech was taken as a sign that the
United Stales does not intend to act
singly for international stabilization.
“The world should know," he said
Monday night, “that when it is ready
tc seek foreign exchange stabiliza
tion. Washington will not be sn ob
stacle. Our position was that of an
Innocent bystander who suffered
untold loss in a fight that we did
not start, and from which we could
not escape.
"Why should we be singled out and
admonished that the moral duty to
restore order is primarily ours? Be
fore we make any commitments, we
must be sure that we will not lose
what we have just regained.
MWe are not unwilling to stabllce.
However, if the great trading nations
elect to continue under the present
absence of rules, we are no longer at
a disadvantage. We have revalued
our currency not more than was
necessary and we can go either way.
Our hands are untied.”
Gives Credit to F. D
*'6o far from engaging In a com*
petitve devaluation race with other
nations," he said, "we hold out to
them a currency of such steadiness
that the normal tendency may very
well be for the rest of the world to
move gradually toward practical ex
change stabilization. If that can be
achieved, the final step should come
easily and almost of its own accord.
Unless somebody rocks the boat that
would be the natural course."
Another theme running through
the secretary's speech was his con
tention that the Roosevelt monetary
policies saved the United States
from disaster. Hitting the Hocver
administration on the ground that
It "stubbornly refused” to take action
when gold left the United States in
•alarming amounts" In 1932. he said:
"The monetary policy of this
(Roosevelt! administration rescued
us from chaos held the fort through
the most trying period of our recov
ery program: and is now the spear
head as we advance steadily toward
our goal "
