Rich and poor alike are conscious
they are taking gold, not to the bank
but for France.
1t would be a mistake for the public
to imagine that it is making a sacri

the gold is unemployed and therefore
Improbable. The bank is naturally
anxious to keep as large a reserve as
possible so as to maintain fully the
credit of its paper issues and at the
same time enable the government to
pay for supplies from abroad in gold
Another reason why the government
wishes the nations gold to be held in
the strong hands of the bank is to pre-
vent it from being withdrawn pri-

way to the enemy by trickery. Ger.

the election of last November" three
attorneys, representing five of the TWEEN
ty-eight men on trial in the federal court
here on charges of conspiracy to corrupt
that election, insisted in their arguments
today that their clients were in no way

discussed at length the rules of law that
ali defendants are presumed to be inno-
cent until proven guilty beyond rea-
sonable doubt, and that conviction cannot
be made on the evidence Of uncorroDo-
rated co-defendants.
The attorneys said they admitted the
conspiracy because eighty eight OF the
men who had been indicted on the charge
had pleaded guilty. Charles j. Orbison,
attorney for Sheriff Dennis Shea and two
other defendants, attacked the character
o. those who had pleaded guilty and ap-
peared for the government, asserting
that they volunteered information. be-
lieving that the more they confessed the
