COLD STANDARD
 IN J. s. MENACED
Chairman of House Banking Committee Voices Fear
 On Declining Output.

WASHINGTON, Oct. IA. = Fears that the declining gold production ill this country would make 1t difficult to retain the nation on gold paign for credit restrictions, accom- panied by declining prices, is ex- pressed in a formal statement issued by chairman Louis T. McFadden, of the House Banking Committee.
 MT McFadden is the author of the bill pending before Congress in which tax of $10 an ounce would be levied on gold used in the in iustrial arts. This tax in turn would be paid to producers to stimulate their efforts. In his statement, MT. McFadden declared that unless some relief was furnished the American gold mining industry would be com Delled to shut domn soon because he legally fixed price of $2067 all ounce for gild was, less than current production costs.
 "The continued depletion of the gold stock by excess exportation md industrial use." Mr. McFadden said, will seriously impair the pub lie confidence in the nations finance md currency unless normal gold output is assured.
 "The United States Mint sold for rses during 1919 nearly $22,000,000 more gold than was produced from the mines of the United States, while his year the drain on the monetary stock will probably be $40000,000. Since the industrial consumers of gold are the only ones in the country Ire the only ones receiving raw ma 'erials at the prewar price. it is evident that they are being heavily subsidized.
 Failure of the United States to act. Mr McFadden asserted, will permit he British Empire to gain an un- questioned supremacy in the world 5 yold production South African gold producers, who mine the bulk of the British gold. he added, have been re- ceiving an exchange premium as high IS 90 per cent since July. 1919, and he French Government, in addition tc imposing an exchange discount on industrial gold, has levied a summary 'ax of $375 an ounce for gold used Tn fabrication of articles other than money
 This year the contribution of the TTpftad tn tho On11 nFn6nPfinn 0f the world" MT. McFadden said. will probably not be more than 12 oer cent, about half of that which it contributed in 1915, while the stimu- 'ating effect of the British exchange premium will probably increase the luota which the British Empire will contribute, to 75 per cent"

French Responsible for
 Polish Victories, Claim

POSEN, Poland, Oct. 14.-An of- ficial of the French Military Mis- sion in Poland has told the Associ- ated Press correspondent that the Polish army would have been conqu- cred by the bolshekiki armies of Russia if the French had not sup ported the Poles This notwithstand- ing the fact that the poles beat back the Russians drive on Warsaw.
 The French officials based his statement upon his belief that the Russion army was superior to the Polish army as an effective fighting machine, with the exception of the German-trained troops of Posen. The Frenchman said he believed the Rus sian organization has been and still is, under estimated and because of this tendency to belittle the Russian armies the menace to Poland's exist ence, if not to all Europe, remains imminent and real.
 The official said some Russian units were poorly equipted but 1t was not true the army was "a bare foot rabble" He was convinced the majority of the Russian divisions were much peter officered than the Poles" The Poles had 25,000 officers but only 5000 of them ever went to the front although they were sorely needed there, he said. There was evidence that certain Polish com panies had fought without officers, he asserted, and that during the re- treat these were without command CTS
 A neutral aviator who had flown over the front several times when battles" were said to be in progress said that he saw of the fighting was 1.-two armies keeping about three hours apart, the Poles retreating when the Russians advanced, and the Russians running when the Poles turned and advanced" He said this schedule sometimes got disarranged and there was a collision between opposing attachments" bue he had not witnessed any of these clashes.
 A number of Polish officers with NuOil tilt ooAo they were forcer to admit the French saved the day but the weakness of their officers was explained by the fact that in former years Poles had not been permitted to hold commis- sions in the army. either in Russia Germany or Austrian Poland. and that the time had been to short to develope a staff of highly trained officers,
