 What we voted in that resolution we shall again find, l am sure, in the note President Wilson is sending to Petrograd. We are in accord with the elevated and clear conception of Presi- dent Wilson.

 "H is necessary that a league of peace be founded in the same spirit of democracy that France has had the honor of introducing into the word The nations now in arms will consti- tute the society of nations. This is the future of humanity or one might well despair of the future President Wilson upon this point is with us. All nations not predatory must unite to prevent others from disturbing the peace. They must unite in an armed league to make respected throughout the world. peace, justice and liberty"

 From the North sea to the Franco Belgian frontier the entente allies and the Germans are engaged in artillery duels, which are especially violent around Dixmude and between Steen- straete and Hetsas and in the region of 'Wytschaete, south of Ypres. On the north bank of the Scarpe river to the east of Arras the British have vap- tured from the Germans trenches over a front of about a mile and made 162 prisoners.
 The Germans are heavily attacking the French troops in the region be- tween Soissons and Rheims, but except on one sector they have everywhere been repulsed with hevay casualties. North of the Chemin -deS-DaTnes some trench elements were captured by the Germans.

Bevan of Chicago said the existence of the problem should re frankly conceded and that 1t could be eradicatsd only through education. criticism and publicity. He urged a nationwide inquiry by surgeons.
 Dr. Howard w. Bongyear of~Detrott declared that "se1f-sty1ed surgeons have been made too quickly in this country and while time and experience have turned out a few good ones from this number, t% h3s been at Q stupen- dous cost of health and life to the public.

FLOW OF GOLD IS
 AWAY FROM AMERICA
Gold InPortations Have Stopped AL osether-Outflcw Will Continue for Some Time.

Washington, June 6. Anaerica's s great gain of gold which has grown with almost every month for two and one-half years has ceased. Gold i'm portations have stopped altogether and the flow has begun the other way with indications that it will continue In comparatively small volume for some time.
 The turning of the tide comes at a time when the country apparently faces the greatest industrial period of it's history, greater, officials believe, than the past twelve months, which witnessed the establishment of a $6- 100000, 900 record for American ex- ports. Plans now under consideration call for an outpouring of approximate ly 5000, 900, 900 a year of exports to entente nations alone and if American fields and factories are equal to the task of meeting demand, the total ex- ports will be swollen hundreds of mil lions beyond the figures.
 Cessation of gold imports to settle trade balances, when trade balances are heavier than ever before, accord ing to foreign buyers, is a novelty in American finance. On the whole it Is regarded as a heavy development, as further accretions might tend toward imitation. All foreign purchases will be paid for. of course, but in a differ ent form, the payment being made by money furnished the buyers by the United States and obtained by fiota- ton of bond issues.
 With the establishment of these credits, it is expected the entente gov ernments, who have bought the bulk of American exports, have found it unnecessary to continue sending gold to settle trade balances. They will send their bonds, instead, to secure the credits advanced them.
