CONFERENCE

GENEVA. June with the meet.
Ing OF the council OF the League Of
Nations. commencing here yesterday,
the fate OF the league viii In all prob
ability be definitely decided
The meeting will be the first one
that has been held since President
Harding's definite announcement
that the United States can never Join
the league in its present form.
It s. expected that all. OF the allied
powers have definitely decided upon
the attitude they wish to take as re
CARDS the league and the council will

initely the leagues future.
The fundamental question to be de.

possible to work over the covenant

In addition to the fact that the dele

TO TRIsNATI0N

WASHINGTON, June THE flood
OF gold into the United States, which
, ebbed somewhat after reaching its
peak In 1917. has set In again and
there is now probably a greater sup
ply Of this precious metal in the
country than at any other time In it's
history. This flow and what the
present stock OF gold in the United
States means In the terms OF the
world supply is the subject OF a bui.
letin issued from the washington
Headquarters OF the National Geogra-
Dhical Society.
Gold the aristocrat OF metals, ia
truly cosmopolitan" says the bulletin,
and is found to greater or less ex-
tent In every part of the world from
near the equator in Africa, Peru and
Borneo to the frozen ground of Alas
ka, Finland and Siberia. Since the
beginning OF history and doubtless
long before any records were made
gold has largely typified the worlds
DESIRE and 1t is the only substance
which has been received by all races
and peoles In exchange for other
property and services. 1t was In
truth, therefore, long before legisla-
ton by practically every civilized
country made it formally SO, the
worlds standard of value.
I'm the early months of 1921 gold
reached the United States from about
thirty different countries. Much of
this gold doubtless originated in the
United States, and there was among
1t no doubt metal from practically ev-
cry source OF gold known to the
world. For the gold of the world con-
stitutes practically single stock
held temporarily in many reservoirs;
and as exchange rates and other eco
nomical and financial conditions
change, it flows freely back and forth
and across along trade routes, weav-
Ing Veritable golden web tying the
nations together.
1T is not at all improbable that
some of the gold that is pouring in on
the shores of the United States first
left this hemisphere in Spanish gal
Icons after it was torn from the tenn
pies of the Incas by the Spanish con-
quistadores. Another part may have
rested once in the treasures of the
great moguls; yhile beside Il Is gold
fresh from the mines of Australia,
the, Klondike, or the Rand. For aside
from that which is absorbed in the
arts or is. lost or used in industry,
practically all gold these days finds
its way to the pots of the assayer and
goes to make up pawns in the worlds
trade. 5r ~
"Of what may be called relatively
