LOWERED STANDARDS: Hungarian Banker Tells Cost Of Halt on Currency Inflation Only at the expense of the liv- ing standards of its people, has Hungary successfully halted the wildest currency inflation in his- tory, Paul Hollas, director of the Hungarian Commercial Bank, said yesterday. In a lecture sponsored by the School of Business Administra- tion, Hollos explained that after making more progress than any Hostel Group Plans Spring Vacation Trips Two spring vacation trips in April and an overnight' trip in March have been scheduled by the Ann Arbor Council of American Youth Hostels. A bike and train trip to Wash- ington, D.C., at an approximate cost of $50 has been planned for April 4-11. The group will tra- vel by overnight train to Harper's Ferry, West Virginia. Here they will start the bicycle part of their journey, through Virginia and Maryland. EMn route they will visit John Brown's Fort at Harper's Ferry, see the White House, the Capitol and the Lincoln Memorial in Washington. On the return trip from Wash- ington to Detroit, they will bicycle north from the capital through the farm areas of northern Mary- land to Gettysburg, Pa., and on through the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mts. to Harper's Ferry for the return train trip to Ann Ar- bor. A shorter bike trip through the Hocking Valley section of Ohio is slated for April 4-7. An overnight trip to the Saline Valley Farms Youth Hostel on March 29-30 is being planned in co-operation with hostelers from Detroit, with a- special benefit square dance on Saturday night. Taggart To Speak Herbert F. Taggart, Assistant Dean of the School of Business Administration and Professor of Accounting, will leave today for Cedar Rapids, Iowa, to address the Cedar Rapids chapter of the National Association of Cost Ac- countants on the subject of "Re- cent Developments in Cost Ac- counting." other central European country, gungary estimates that its in- ustry will be at 75 per cent of the 1938 level by next summer. Equipment Intact "We have been able to do this because much of our industrial plants and equipment were left in- tact. Germany removed some in- *ustrial facilities and most of what she took is now in the Amer- ican zone. The United States has pledged its return. Russia like- Nise removed some equipment but not a great deal in proportion to the total possessed by Hungary." The inflation was halted by sta- bilization of a new currency and government repudiation of !the old, Hollas explained. Within a few months, value of the currency in circulation in the country drop- ped from 150 million dollars to $200,000, the banker said. When the governmentbegan redeeming the old currency with t'nenew, stores of gold and foreign notes to the amount of 10 million turned up, he said. Wages, Prices Kept Low "Although the currency has now been stabilized, wages and prices and likewise the standard of liv- ing must remain low for some time," Hollas said. "The amount of currency in circulation is de- liberately kept small, for if it were increased, prices would rise, and much increase in prices would be likely to undermine public con- fidence in the new currency." Roth Tells About tnuderground Job If you've been worried lately about the apparent undermining of the Kellogg building and the Health Service, take heart. The extensive digging merely in- dicates the installation of an in- terceptor storm sewer, according to Walter Roth, superintendent of the University Plant Department. The new 14-inch diameter pipe will run from N. University up Fletcher street to Washington, and then down Washington to the University laundry. The sewer is intended to relieve storm water in the northeast sec- tion of the campus, Roth ex- plained. Many people on Santa Lucia in the Windward Islands speak a language compounded of French with a West African syntax. France Fears Future Army In Germany Population Growth Is Root of Trouble By J. M. ROBERTSON JR. AP Foreign Affairs Analyst France, in proposing to restrict the population of Germany by emigration and other means,' strikes at something far deeper than mere military manpower. The rapid growth within com- paratively narrow borders of a highly developed people lies at the very root of all the trouble Ger- many has caused. National boun- daries are a poor thing behind which to dam up such a popula- tion when it is within sight of lands less thickly populated by less organized peoples. This is the situation which handed Ger- many over to a series of ruthless expansionists. It is natural for the French to see German manpower principally as army material. But, however misdirected and lacking in techni- cal ability, it is concentrated more than twice as densely as that of France, three times that of Po- land, and was organized to meet the requirements of the industrial age on a far higher level than most of its neighbors. Poland has replaced with her own people only about half the normal population of the territory annexed from Germany. This leaves something of a vacuum, while increasing the pressure in the former Reich. That's why American experts are proposing the return of Lower Silesia to Germany, with Poland to keep the rest. G Steere (Continued from Page 1) ? trees makes flour of high food value. Even sawdust will sustainI life, he declared. Delicious bever- ages can be made of brewing the bark of sassafras or other trees, as our ancestors discovered, he said Sugar Substitute With sugar still in short supply, Professor Steere pointed out that many persons may be interested and surprised to know that wal- nut, hickory and birch trees, as well as hard maple exude a sweet sap which can be reduced by boil- ing to sugar of distinctive flavors. Many wild berries can be made into piquant jams and jellies which will be a delight to jaded palates, he insisted . A word of caution is extended by the professor, who warned that although only a few wild plants are poisonous ,it would be wise for amateur plant hunters to learn to recognize for certain the best edible varieties. The fields, woods and ponds all around us hold rich storehouses of taste thrills, said Dr. Steere, who predicted that the adventurous soul who seeks them out will find a rich reward-just as did the ear- ly pioneers who first dared to eat strange plants like the potato, tomato, pea, or carrot, which later became our most valuable foods.
