PAPER CURRENCY
To REPLACE COLD
VENEZUELA WILL ESTABLISH
NATIONAL BANK
Idea of Government Is to Use "Green-
backs" for General CircuIa-
tion-Experiment Declared
Success
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
NEW YORK, April 27.-The Tribune
today says:
The government of Venezuela is to
establish a national bank and substi-
tute a paper currency for the gold ba-
sis on which the country has been op-
Grating.
It was learned yesterday that among
the missions with which J. Torres Car
denas, secretary general of Venezuela,
and Manuel Coraro, who arrived here
from Caracas on Monday, are charged,
is the negotiation for the national bank
contemplated by President Castro
Currency Instead of Gold
Heretofore the Banco de Venezuela,
in Caracas, has been the national de-
positary and fiscal agent for the gov
ernment. The bank issued paper
money for use only in commercial CEN
ters-Caracas. La Guayra and Puerto
Cabello-while the Banco de Maracai-
bo did the same for the convenience
of the business people of the CITY,
This issuance of bank notes was be-
cause of the little use made in Vene-
zuela of check books and the difficulty
of handling gold in large sums.
But the plan proposed is to estab-
lish paper currency for general circu-
lation.
Senior Corrora will try to interest To-
cal bankers in the plan for national
bank.
Senor Cardenas will sail tomorrow
for Europe, where he will open ne
gotiations with foreign financiers.

CLASH MAY OCCUR
IN COAST LEAGUE
MORLEY SAYS GAME SHOULD
BE DISCONTINUED
If Northern Management Demands
Carrying Out of Schedule, Local
Impresario Will Drop Out Un.
less Even Break Is Assured

According to a dispatch received
from Oakland. last night, published III
another column of The Herald, it would
appear that an effort is being made to
continue the schedule of the Pacific
Coast league with certain radical
changes as regards the places of con-
test.
The dispatch indirectly quotes Man
ager Gleason of the Seals as saying that
games will probably be played in San
Francisco within three weeks time.
Manager Morley of the Los Angeles
club, when shown the dispatch last
night, said that Gleason possessed abb
solutely no authority to make any state
ment regarding the future movements
of the league.
When asked as to what he thought
of the situation as embodied in the
telegram, Morley said:
81 can't consider anything coming
from Gleason, as he is unauthorized to
act, not being an official of the league.
AS for myself, I do not think 1t is at
all practical to continue baseball in
California under the present condi-
tions. I lost $4,000 in San Francisco
and do not intend to jeapordize what
I have left by associating it with a los
ing ball club.
"If the northern people can show
me where there is a chance to break
even I'll take the chance, but can't
see how they are going to do 1T. Per-
hans in three or four months the sit
uation will warrant continuing the
game, but at present it will be an inn
possibility.
'I am not crying about my own loss
and would be willing to go ahead with
an even chance in sight l have sent
long kilograms to the north inquiring
as to their intentions, but so far have
received no answer. 1t appears to me
as though the Los Angeles club would
sustain a $4,000 losSsif the games con-
tinue and I can't afford any such propo-
sition at the present time. However, we
may hear from the north at any
moment"
The word from Oakland will no doubt
come as CHEEKY news to Los Angeles
fans who are in gloomy state of mind
as q result of the threatened disruption.
The question now arises as to what
may be the outcome should the north
ern contingent demand a continuation
with Manager Morley objecting. The
local impresario says he will remain
in if there lis chance to break even,
but appears to be. extremely dubious
of any such chance being proven to him.
In the event of the northern man
agement demanding that the schedule
be played, a clash may occur. Should
Morley refuse to accede to the vote
of the majority of the league officials
his franchise would necessarily be for
feited.
In a nutshell. the decision of the
league officials will override any single
objection and the league will continue
to exist or be dissolved according to the
prevailing sentiment.

 THE STREET OBSERVER-The man who keeps his eye on the streets most of the time can see a great many things that other people overlook. For instancS. one man called attention yesterday to the carelessness of cer- tain drivers of milk wagons, delivery wagonS etc. whose horses ale held by weights. not so heavy that they cannot move them but So heavy that they will not care to. He related an incident of a couple of days before in illustration of several similar occur TenceS he had seen. A driver rushed out of a business house so hurriedly Ee forgot to pick up the weight and hitting his team with q whip they started off on q trot dragging the weight with them and going half a block before someone called to the driver. Had it been some teams the result would have been a runaway. Another bad habit this same man had noticed is practiced by some people who live on second floors with over hanging porches. They permit them selves to eXpectorate from their bal comics into the street, thoughtlessly perhaps but nevertheless to the dis gust and embarrassment of those who chance to be passing below.
