GENOA, April 10 (Associated Press) -
The subcommission on currency to-day
again discussed the oonvocation OF an
International conference of central banks

Bank Of America would be invited.
France proposed that the Bank OF
England should convene this conference
This proposal was seconded by Russia
and carried.
AS to the invitation to the American
Federal Reserve Bank. Sir Robert
Horne, British Chancellor of the EN-
cheouer. declared his belief that the
American bank would consent to take
part In the conference. as it had as
much interest as the European banks
in the betterment OF the currencies of
the world.
Discussing the work of the bankers
and economists who are comforting at
Genoa, Sir Robert said their recon-
mendations so far were wholly in line
with the old fashioned economies. They
had indorsed the gold standard and had
advised the various nations that they

budgets just as they did formerly. with

ular schemes.
