international Gold Pool

Bankers were much interested yes
tcrday in the Washington advices to
the effect that the formation of a
$500, 100000 international gold pool
was being discussed. Establishment of
such a central fund of gold which
would eliminate the necessity of ship
ping and trans-shipping gold from one
part of the world to the other in SET
temont Of trade balances has been
proposed off and on for years. 1t has
been pointed out as being obviously an
ideal method Of settling international
balances, inasmuch as it would make
that mere matter of bookkeeping, the
fund being employed much in the
fashion Of the gold settlement fund
of the Federal Reserve system. Bank
ers expressed the opinion yesterday
that to make feasible and practicable
the establishment of such an intcrna-
tional pool it would first be necessary
to have real league of nations. This
was also the opinion of Leopold Fred
rick, one Of the leading foreign eX-
change experts in the country. Mr..
Friedrich said that if the gold pool
were established in London, as had
been proposed, it would strengthen the
position of London as the worlds
financial centre.

be one of the most valuable parcels of
its area in West Bronx Mr.. Lawrence
bought the property from the Roulines
estate, which has owned it for many
years. 1t contains about eight lots with
a store building on the immediate cor
ner.
Fordham Road is the great crosstown
thoroughfare of the upper Bronx and
is rapidly developing into business
street of high character AS Jerome
Avenue is subway street, the strate-
glcal value of the corner at a site for
business Improvement when the new
transit has been fully developed and
appreciated can be imagined.
Mr.. Lawrence is a student of transi.
and the benefits that accrue from it.
he followed the Broadway subway
buying corners, which he sold later at
proflts that were sensational. He must
nave paid big price for the Roulines
property. because the estate has recog-
nized the value of its corner. Judging

fused for the property since construc

Cotton

The cotton market opened firm at
an advance of l5 to "a points or over
night buying orders ard in response to
steady cables. There was some buying
by houses with Liverpool connections
and other foreign trade interests, which
was attributed to covering short
hedges. but the demand was soon sup
piled and prices broke very sharply
under pressure from local and South
ern sources. Stop orders were un-
covered on the decline. and the market
was generally weak and unsettled, with
prices reaching the lowest levels of the
day in the late trading, when active
months showed net losses of 70 to 95
points. The close was only slightly up
from the lowest on covering.
January was relatively weak. owing
TO the circulation of notices estimating
at about 1000 bales and scattering
liquidation. Trading in that delivery
will end at noon week from next
Friday. There was nothing from the
news in the goods trade to indicate
that the cotton muslins announced Oh
Monday had stimulated demand, and
the lack of interest on the part of
domestic spinners in Southern spot
markets was attributed largely to the
unsettled goods situation. The South
ern spot markets, as officially reported,
We're unchanged to rs points lower.
Exports for the day were 1868 bales,
making 2.051 .073 so far this season,
against 2,227.9S1 last year.
The local market for spot cotton was
quiet and so points lower, at 1880 for
middling upland. compared with 51.70
the day before and 2260 the year be-
fore. The range OF prices follows:
