New York, Aug. 2s.-John Gil

A dozen men were working in o
cut at Gouverneur Place when Gil
martin saw an express train ap

He blew his whistle and the men
stepped over to the express track.
thinking the train was local. Gil
martin, seeing their mistake. ran to-
ward them shouting a warning.
As they jumped back to the other
track the engine struck him, killing
him instantly.
Fifteen years ago Gilmartin gave
up his job on the police force here
and started to study law, attending
Kent College.
He went to Chicago, was admitted
to the bar and made name for
himself in private practice.
Then he went into politics and

years.
However, the hard pace Of study

finally told on him, and he was
forced to give it up.
On doctors orders he travelled

Then his money gave out and, his
private practice being gone, he took
the railroad job, his health still
broken, in order to support his wife,

SLACKERS MUST PAY
By the Associated Press.

Berlin, Aug. 23.-The compulsory
re1uisitioning or confiscation of for
sfrn currencies wherever found is
provided for in the governments pro-
xram of emergency measures which
becomes effective immediately.
The announcement of the drastic
procedure was made in the course
Of a conference between Chancellor
Stresemann, Finance Minister Hilf-
erding and Minister of Economics
Raumer, representing the government
and q delegation from the league OF
industrialists. q,
THE government previously had
apprised the representatives of Ber-
Inns banks of its determination to
gather in all gold currencies by force
wherever they were not surrendered
voluntarily. The chancellor frankly
informed the leaders of finance and
big business that the government
would not countenance the slightest
attempt to evade the provisions of
the forthcoming emergency ordinance
and would deal with all slackers in
the most drastic manner.
No Formally Intended.
It is not proposed to be content
with q formal appeal to patriotism :
all foreign moneys will be gathered
in without much formality, the own
ers being reimbursed with paper
marks. The funds thus obtained will
be devoted in part to an effort to
regulate the internal financial chaos
which Is causing unwarranted adj
vances in prices Of food commodities

serve from which food purchases
abroad may be made.
The ordinance provides excessive
money fines and the confiscation Of
private fortunes Tor the wilful COZ
cealment or possession of foreign cur
rencies and demands voluntary
declaration of such possession on the
part Of owners. The extent to which
holdings will be requisitioned depends
upon whether or not the holder needs
them for legitimate business pur.
poses.
Gold Loan In View.
The government expects to realize
between two hundred million and
three hundred million gold marks
from the initial raid and expects that
the impending action will stimulats
a desire to invest foreign currencie.
in the new internal gold loan, in
preference to having them confiscated
and replaced with paper marks.
Herr Stresemann has acquainted
Reichstag leaders and members of
the federal council with the contents
of the new measure and has found
all parties approving its provisions.
Several party leaders, however, be.
heve the measure is not sufficiently
stringent and suggested that a more
drastic attitude be taken, but the
chancellor is hopeful that the govern.
ment's appeal to national triotisnl
WIN impress sdollar fans" and big
business alike with its determination
to coax out gold hoardings with the
least possible trouble.
How the government proposes to
solve the problem of attaching the
gold deposits held by Germans out
side the country is not indicated, but
the impression prevails that the in
dustrialists have given the chancellor
their pledge of liberal and voluntary
cooperation.
