TOOK REDGOLD.
London Journal Asserts
Stolen Russian Funds
Received Here.

ohieials OF the government yester-
day professed TO be completely in
the dark as to the charges brought
by the Financial Times of London
that this government had received
large sums of stolen gold from Rus
sia. 1t was stated at the State
Department that no notice would
be taken OF such a charge brought
oy newspaper, but that II the
British government cared to take
the matter up. an Investigation as
TO the truth or falsity Of the re-
port would be made.
There was received in America
about a month ago a shipment of
Russian gold amounting in all to
less than 100000. which was held
up temporarily by government on
cials so that the source of the ship
ment might be checked up. This
government always has been of the
position that no title in gold or
jewels rested with the Soviet gov
ernment where II could be shown
that they had been obtained by
theft.
. Investigation by both the Depart
ment OF Justice and the State De-
partment convinced the United
states officials that the gold. which
had been sent~from Latvia in pay
ment for surplus supplies bought
by that government from the Liqui-
dation Commission, although Rus
sian in origin. had been rightfulIy
acquired and IT was then turned
over to the Director of Purchase
and Supplies of the War Depart
ment. to be applied to the account
of the Latvian government.
