SpANDAu GOLD FUND
IS EXHAUSTED BY WAR

BERLIN, Oct. 1.-THE German war
fund of 120.0O0,0o0 marks ($24.ooo,.
000) In coined gold, which was kept
in the Julius Tower at Spandau for
forty-three years, will never be return
ed to its old place.
When the war broke out the treas.
ure was at once transferred to the
Reichsbank to increase the gold re-
serve Of this institution. Paper money
was issued for the amount and used
to pay the first expenses OF the mobi-
lization. The large amount lasted ex-
actly two weeks. In this short time
the great war chest, which had been
the pride of the German nation for
almost half a century, was emptied.
The gold is, of course, still in the
Reichsbank, but actually It has been
spent, as after the war it must be used
to redeem the notes that have been
issued against it.
The new war fund which is to be
created as soon as the treaties of
peace are signed will be many times
larger than the comparatively insignifi-
cant amount that has been kept In
idlcness for more than four decades
in the Spandau citadel. The future
German war chest will contain sew
eral billions and II will be in Reichs-
bank.
