NEW YORK, July 4.-More gold Is

made by an official Of the latter insti-
tuition. The gold-in coin and bars-in

more than s455.OoO.0o0. or approx
mately, one-fourth of all the gold held
by the United States Treasury.
Gold Bars Number 10000.
With the exception Of the gold coin
held by the subtreasury. the largest
portion of the gold has been imported
from England and France and has been
smelted into bars, which average in
value from between $1,000 and $4,000
They are piled in twenty-five tiers in
the vaults of both the subtreasury and
assay office. There. are about 10000
bars in the tiers, officials estimated
About $110,0oo,000 of the gold stored

MAY HEREAFTER BAR
NAVY YARD EMPLOYEES
Militia Officers Up Against Law
Which Exempts Men From
War Service.

Members of the District Guard, or
those who were members Of the Dis
trict Guard, lately employed at the
Washington navy yard already are
wondering what will be-the policy Of
the militia officers toward such men
in the future. With the provision in
the national defense act excusing such
men, it is not probable that the guard
officers will want to enlist employees
Of the yard. since they will not be
compelled to answer any call which
might be made for troops.
Although no Official stand has been
taken in regard to the matter. 1t seems
to be the opinion, unoff1cially. that such
men will be turned down in the fu-
ture. and every effort will be made to
keep them ont Of the organization.
Of Value in Other Lines.
The officers see clearly that such men
are of value to the government in their
civilian occupation. where trained men
are needed to make the ammunition.
the guns and other ordnance equipment,
and they do not desire them to enlist and
go to annual training camps and then
be compelled to step down in time of
need.
. There are many navy yard men in
the militia, and probably the naval or
sanitation has more men in proportion
to its size than are in any other branch
of the guard. Practically the whole en-
igineer division Of the Naval Militia
10 composed OF employees of the
Washington navy yard. 1t 10 pointed
out. and these men very likely would
be compelled to stay in their civilian
Jobs at the machines in the yards
should the navy be called into service
Recall Would Provo Handicap.
The recall of these men from this
branch would seriously handicap the
organization. and would necessitate a
vigorous recruiting campaign for a
branch where only trained men could
vork-men used to handling marine
machinery.
A large part OF the commissioned per-
sonnet of the naval branch also Is
composed of employees OF tho Washing
ton yard.
