FLOOD OF GOLD
 SWEEPING UPON
 AMERICAN SHORES
Precious Metal Reaches Un- precedented Amount of Over Three Billion Dollars, With
 Tide Still Rising
By Associated Press

New York, May 26--A veritable flood of gold is sweeping upon the shores of the United States. Already the pre- cious metal in the country has attained the unprecedented amount oa s3,O01, ,4S7, ,9l5 and yet the tide is rising.
 Financiers attribute this to the fact that the United States is the worlds one creditor nation and for the equally iin- portant reason that the other nations Of the world find it well-nigh impossible to transact business with this country by reason of their own depreciated cur rency.
 The precious metal is coming from all quarters of the globe, but the European countries. more particularly Great Brit. ain and France, as well as the Scandina vian nations, are paying heaviest toll.
 Much of the gold received from Ens land represents shipments from Sous Africa to London, while the French and other consignments hark back to the days of the war and in some instances to much longer periods.
 For example, Sweden is sending gold received from Germany for war supplies; also bar gold or bullion which many pe- lieve to be of Russian origin. By way of the Pacific have come occasional ship ments of gold from Siberia, where they formed part of General Kolchaks war chest.
 South America and Central America also are making involuntary contribu- tions to this countrys vast holdings of the yellow metal, mainly because unset tied economic conditions in Latin-Amer- ica virtually preclude any other form of payment to this country.
 The local assay office. 2 new structure, whose modern equipment includes huge vaults five floors below the street level. now holds upward of $1.000, 000.000. fully one-third of which has come from for eign countries
 The machinery of the assay office here Is working at high pressure in an effort to reduce and refine the foreign bullion and coin. Reports that large quantities of the gold are being shipped to the Philadelphia mint lack official confirmation

W|SCOUNT MAKING TAXES EXCEPTIONS
 TOLANS|NG' BOOK
Says the Former Secretary'S Statements on Shantung Are Only His Own Ideas of
 What Took Place
By Associated Press

Tokio, May 26.-ViScount Makino, Japanese delegate to the peace confer ence takes exception to statements of former Secretary Lansing made in the ex-secretary's recent book concerning the attitude of Japan at the conference.
 As quoted in the Asahi Shimbun, Vis- count Makino, commenting on cabled re- su1nes of the book, says that Japan did not force President Wilson's hand regard ing Shantung by threatening to bolt the conference as did Italy. There were wild rumors abroad in Paris to that ef- feet at the time he says, these threats being to the effect that Japan would not Join the League of Nations. but these were mere rumors, and Japan's real ac- tons had nothing to do with them"
 MT. Lansing's statements that Japan attempted to force the adoption of the racial equality claue by announcing a decision to refuse to sign the peace treaty is also denied by the Japanese peace delegates. The delegates of all the powers represented, says Viscount Makino, had no other idea than to secure the best peace possible and such guar antee as would make secure the peace of the world and anything in the nature of threat from anyone could not be tol- erated.
 The question regarding Shantung and that regarding racial equality cannot be treated in the same light" he says .'The statement made by MT. Lansing in this connection is probably only his own mis- conception, as he was not present at the meeting at which the final decision re- garding Shantung was arrived at.

 There never was truer saying than that one-half the world knows not what the other half is doing. If the facts were known there would come shock to some of us which would awaken us to a strong desire to know what is going on. sometimes at our very door.
 We talk about helping the unfortu- hates; this generally means by giving them some small change or a meal. and then they move on to the next tender heart for another temporary lift, and 80 on goes the good work. This Is charity. 1t is 8 kindness which weakens nature-the unfortunate end of the world needs friendship, an up- lift-something beyond saving the body from starving-perhaps the soul is hungry for a chance.
 I had letter from one of our Sir minghagn young men who is making success at Columbia, a few days ago and here Is an extract from that let ter: T had a nice long letter from Miss Nancy Serefin Gan inmate for years in the Jefferson county aims house. I wish I were rich enough to send out there flowers and other gifts each week end" Is not Birmingham proud of this kind of citizen? Nevin Belden, way up wonder in New York, these poor old women at the poor house look for his letters and little gifts. He sent them from Paris, and now he sends them from the greatest American city. His friendship is something for them to treasure in their fading years, but in his beautiful young manhood he is In simple deeds making his way as he loves humanity. Our employed social workers are doing wonderful work, and make re- ports back to organizations which as sure them their money, apportioned for relief, Is well administered-and I know it is. But if every member of these organizations could follow in the tracks of the nurses and welfare visitors they would see the need of individual acquaintance with our sick. weary and distressed. There Is more than all of the trained workers can do if they spend every hour looking out for woe. If we all felt the responsi- bility to our neighbor as we are eau tioned to love our neighbor," this would be a broader bigger. better old world to live in.
 Just here let me call your attention to our county jail, where there have been confined recently numbers of white women, old and young va grants, dope fiends and offenders There Is one woman there. a prisoner herself, who has been ~an unfailing feeling friend to each of them, and she makes home for them in the jail Adjudged guilty by the courts, but can't you believe her good deeds have secured her forgiveness from the Higher Tribunal? There is more real good welfare work going on in our Jefferson county Jails--Birmingham and at Bessemer-than in many of our churches. Why? Because those in charge see the need, the true value of knowing these unfortunates, and they

RUSSIAN OFFICERS
 ARE NOW SERVANTS; . SOME ACT AS "MAIDS"
By Associated Press

Athens. May 26.-Russian officers for merly of General Wrangers army who were brought to Greece when the Crimea was evacuated and who have found it impossible to secure other employment have turned their hand to domestic and household pursuits.
 Recently one of them was seen on the streets of Athens wheeling a baby car rage. He was a handsome Cossack col onel and his sturdy build martial air and fine features made him 8 conspicuous fig ure. His charge, baby belonging to a wealthy Athenian family. took evident delight in it's stalwart, good-natursd nurse, who showed the youngster as much care and affection as the most de- voted mother.
 The servant problem does not exist ia Athens. At least the Greek housekeeper has no such difficulties in this respect as her sister in America, for she can always fill the places of maids, cooks and kit chen-hands with former Russian soldiers and officers, of whom there are thou sands in Greece.

 There was considerable discussion after he flew away. One guy told me he bet the airplane was fulla booze and he sure wished he could fly I said that maybe he'd hit the P-D store as he went by and fall, but the guy said that wouldn't do any good because all the stuff would be broken theh
 Another guy came along and said that probably the airplane was lost and wondered why somebody didn't holler to him as be went by and give him some directions. And a bird who was listening to us all talk, said we was way off. because the plane was headed for Naco and if the avia- tor was lost he wasn't outa-luck, any how.
