WASHINGTON, APR. 24.

THE CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN MR. RAM- SAY MACDONALD AND PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT AND BETWEEN ANGLO-AMERICAN ECONOMIC EXPERTS, HAVE BEEN VIRTUALLY COMPLET- ED

A joint statement issued from the White House ex- presses the deep satisfaction of Mr. MacDonald and the President at the outcome of the discussions which were undertaken to explore the problems of the World Econo- mic Conference.

The statement enumerates the matters considered, namely, world price levels, central bank policies, monetary standards, exchange restrictions, the im- provement of the status of silver and a number of world trade problems, particularly limitation of restrictions.

Final agreement on these matters is reserved for the World Economic Conference will, very likely; open in the middle of June.
