TO ADMIT RUSS GOLD.
Uncle Sam Lifts Ban On Soviet Inn
portaton.

SuSio Sann IiItS Ban On soviet I'M =
portation.
Washington, July 21.-Restrictions
on the importation to this country of
Russian rubles, involving the impor-
tation of Russian gold are to be lifted
shortly by the United States. The an
nouncement is expected today from
the state department.
This is in line with the recent poi-
icy of removing practically all re-
strictions on trade with Russia. I'M
portation Of Russian gold, it is stated,
should facilitate the development or
trade between the two countries.
Soviet authorities have contended
that 1t would not be possible to take
advantage Of the permission to trade
with the United States unless the
privilege was granted Of making pur-
chases with gold. Offer to deposit gold
coin in this country has been repeat
edly made by the bolsheviki.
Previous efforts of the soviet gov
countries have met with protests by
France that such gold must be ap-
piled first to the liquidation Of debt
contracted by the former imperial
government. Several attempts Of the
bolshevil1i to deposit gold in Scandi-
navian countries for trade purposes
were frustrated by the French.
1t is not known whether the sub
ject has been discussed between the
French and American governments.
While recognizing the cloud under
which the gold held by the soviet
government rests, the opinion is held
that with the removal Of the trade
embargo prohibition of other restric-
tions should naturally follow.

ChicaGA. July 21.--Unless the in

creases rail freight rates by more
than 18 per cent, adoption of the
rail wage boards decision will en-
barrass the railroads. according to
railroad executives in Chicago yes
terday. !. Altho the majority spoke
|guardedly, they indicated their belief
that the roads will be unable to oper-
ate under the new wage scale If the
burden is not passed to the public at
once.
e. T. Winter, representative Of the
railroads in the hearings before the
hearings before the wage board, de-
clared that the smallest increase In
rates that the roads can possibly op-
crate under is 1s per cent. He said
that roads would apply the terms OF
the award at once and follow this
with an immediate demand for high

tinuanoe of Federal Control.

New York, July 21.-The Associa-
ton Of Railway Executives at a
meeting held here, decided to recon-
mend to all railroads that the ma
tons express business continue to
be handled under federal control, as
1t was during the war, by one agency

Company. The reason given for the
recommendation Is that the four
original express companies virtually
have ceased to exist and no longer
are able to function individually.
leaving the American Railway Ex-
press the only agency thru which the
service can be operated.
A standard form of contract to be
made between Individual railroad
companies and the American Rail-
way Express Company will be sub
mitted to the interstate commerce
commission for It's approval. Upon
this approval, the association will
urge all member roads to execute the
uniform contract with the express
company.

members of the association that this
will be in the interest Of the public"

faced the peculiar situation Of being
almost unanimously In favor of w. J..
Bryan as their presidential nominee
and yet being divided as to whether
tho convention should name him as
dts leader.
The Bryan boom today had become
tho foremost question before the de-
legates.
Mr.. Bryan's friends, here. who
claimed to be speaking for him, firm
ly retterate previous statements that
he will not accept tho nomination,
will not run on any ticket, and feels
that the party should not name any
candidates, combining It's activities In
stead to local campaigns.
After a series of night conferences,
there Is definite movement today
to bring Mr.. Bryan's nomination on
the ground that he should not be
placed in an embarrassing position.
Tho convention was called to order
by Virgil q. Henshaw, national COM
mittee chairman.
