Testimonia al Mailed to the President
Tells Of Great Gratitude.
The Hag ue.-A memorial addressed
to President Woodrow Wilson, signed
by about 10000 Belgian refugees now
in Holland expressing gratitude for the
aid which America has extended to the
Belgian war sufferers, was mailed to
Washington Saturday. It reads as
follows:
Profoundly touched by the marks
of sympathy which the American ma
ton INCREASINGLY has showered upon
the Belgian people since the begin
ming of the war, and especially moved
by the good work of the American
commission for relief in Belgium, that
has insured the existence OF the en-
tire people, the Belgians now in Hol-
land beg you to accept this expression
of their gratitude.
Certainly the Belgians in their days
of prosperity loved and respected the
noble American people, but only griev.
GUS circumstances such as those in
which we now live could make more
certain the full extent of the friend.
ship, which nothing can ever termi'
nate.
I'VE hope this humble testimony
may be the guarantee of gratitude
without bounds, until the moment
when we may attest upon our liberated
soil that the Belgian people do not
forget"

BRlTAIN's MONEY PILE LOWERS.
Bullion Exports Since January I, $685..
000, 000-Bank of England Deposits
Show Increase of $3.50, 900.

London.-Since the beginning of the
year the Bank of England bullion
movements on foreign account show
that ON balance little more than $685.
000, 900 has been exported or set aside,
this figure allowing for the earmark
ing on $45,OO0,000 for redemption of
treasury notes. In the same period the
reserve has decreased by about $751;
100000, and the coin and bullion by
fully $65,000,000. A considerable sum
has probably gone to France for the
payment of British troops.
That the drain Is abnormal may be
gathered from the fact that in the
corresponding period Of 1914 100000
was received from abroad, while at the
same time the coin and bullion and
the reserve in the Bank Of England
declined about $45,OOO,oO0, indicating
that only 100000 in gold had been
withdrawn for home purposes.
Another remarkable change in the
bank return since the beginning Of the
year has been the growth in public
deposits and other deposits, which to-
gether now exceed $1,O35, 100000. COM
pared with $755,O0O,0O0 at the end of
December, 1914.
According to the board of trade, en-
ployrnent in March showed a general
improvement. There was shortage
of male labor in many instances, espe-
cially in engineering, shipbuilding,
coal mining and agriculture, and of
female labor in some branches Of the
clothing trade.
Compared with a year ago the
trades affected by the war. such as
engineering, shipbuilding, woolens,
hosiery, boots and mems clothing
showed a decided improvement. but
tinplate, cotton, linen, lace, silk, pot
terry, brick and glass trades were con
siderably below that of 1914.
