American suggestion of an interna-

backed by gold. is infeasible, for the
simple reason that either such an in

be backed by gold. since. he holds, an
international bank note would not re-

He believes Germany sooner or later

Reichsbank's gold reserve, either vol

member of Frances War Cabinet, ex-

to his cause. 1t is no news to the dis
