first time during the war the weekly
report Of the Imperial Bank of Ger
many shows a decrease in its gold re-
serve. which this week is 10000, 900
marks below the preceding week.
Increments for long time have been
steadily declining despite energetic
propaganda appeals to surrender jew
elry. The bank heretofore, however,
has been able, though often by the
scantiest of margins to avoid the hui
initiating acknowledgement that the
growth had paused entirely.
This weeks decrease is attributed
semi-officially to heavy purchases
abroad. The increase Of the gold re-
serve has long since ceased to keep
pace with the increase in not circu-
lation. The bank several months ago.

Muzzling Of Press
In Germany Seen as
Sign of Big Change

LONDON, June 20. - Special dis
patches from Rotterdam say it is in
ferred there, in view of the gagging Of
the German press that something
drastic has happened or is about to
happen in Germany.
They quote the Frankfurter Zeitung
complaining that t was compelled to
issue it's political section until further
rotice without an Independent express
sion of opinion and say the censor
ship now far exceeds anything previ-
Gus. The press Is declared to be COM
pletely muzzled.
1t is said the real secret of the
paper shortage is a government move
to compel newspapers to print such
bare news allowed, excluding COM
mentatory matter. The belief is ex-
pressed in Holland that next weeks
meeting of the Reichstag may pro-
duce startling developments.
