Boon will be solved, the balance of
rrade again will swing to the United
States and the payment of immense
sums of American gold to England
Rlil be rendered unnecessary, in the
Sptnion of Sir George Paish, special
adviser to the English chancellor Of
The eXchequer, now in Washington to
discuss foreign exchange conditions
with treasury officials.
Ia Sir George said he believed the Lon
Non and New York stock exchanges
t$oon would reopen. His government,
3e said, was preparing to prevent the
Salling Of loans OH securities and with
such d guaranty he thought there was
little to stand in the way of reopen

Sir George declared he did not be-

fear that English manufacturers
*ould buy Egyptian cotton in pref

"The Egyptian cotton is not used
Tor the same grade of manufactured
goods" said he. "At present the
English mills probably have a suf-
ncient supply OH hand for few
months. They naturally are not
ghxious to buy, however, unless they

Until then the conference with Sir
George, to which New York banker.

1t became apparent today that the
federal reserve board probably would
attempt to provide short term inter
est bearing paper or notes acceptable
to the English government in place
Of actual gold. English bankers, il
was said recently refused to take the
obligations of New York city to the
amount of $3O,0O0,O0O because they
were regarded as having too long to
run. The English bankers are saiG
to prefer 50 day or so day paper.
The federal reserve banks pruU-
ably will be in operation within SO
days and then paper carrying their
Endorsement may be acceptable to
English creditors.

Mckay Case Up
On New Order

In the supreme court this morning
Fl. B. Maxson filed his petition for
writ of prohibition against George
Brodigan, secretary of state, and Rich
ard A. Mckay. This action is substan-
TALLY the same as the one brought by
H. B. MOrehouse which was Yesterday
dismissed by him because he admitted
Mckay should have been a party de-
fendant. The present petition rene
dies the error and Maxon alleges that
he brings the proceeding at the re-
quest of members of the Republican
state committee of Nevada
The petition seeks to restrain the Sec
retary of state from certifying McKay's
name as the Republican nominee for at
torney- general on account of his failure
to file statements before and after the
primary election as required by the cor
rupt practices act, and alleges on infor-
nation and belief that Mckay does not
intend and will not file any statement
of his expenses and liabilities as re-
required by the said statute. The peti-
tion is filed by Cole L. Harwood, the
law partner of George Springmeyer, the
Progressive nominee for attorney gen.
eral.
