British Begin Circulating
 Their Hoarded Sovereigns

LONDON, Mar. 2-Recent reports that the British government had started minting sovereigns, as step toward returning to the gold stand ard, has had a tendency to bring out some of the 5,O00,000 or 6,000,000 gold pieces which bankers have cal culated were being hoarded by peo- ple who had held them since SOver- eigns were withdrawn from circula- ton early in the war. The rumor that sovereigns were being coined was promptly denied by the govern ment, but even after that the gold pieces continued to be brought out of their hiding places and exchanged for the paper currency at the banks.
 The Bank of England particularly has been receiving quite number of sovereigns every day recently which, after being exchanged for paper are placed away in the vaults until such time as the government sees fit to put the gold pieces in general circu- lation again Bankers say the Lon doner has become entirely accus- toned to the paper currency and that it is doubtful whether soVereigns even after England returns to the gold basis, will ever be popular again.

Poles Plan New Port
 to Rival Nearby Danzig

GDINGEN, Poland, Mar. 2.-Polish interests, with the assistance Of French capital, are planning a fine future for this port on the Baltic. Polish shipping is to be centered here, according to the plans, avoiding Danzig, and freight will reach War saw and other Polish cities over Pol ish controlled railroads.
 Gdingen, however, is not a natural harbor, so there is much dredging to be done, and breakwaters will have to be built before the herbor is safe in all weathers.
 The decision to develop Gdingen comes as a result Of the constant conflicts between the Polish author ities and the free city of Danzlg The Poles aver that their republic is being strangled by Danzig, thru hostility and high charges, and that they must have port of their own, even if it's development is difficult and comes slowly.
 Danzig is not particularly disturb ed. It doubts if Gdingen, 15 miles away, ever will become a serious competitor, for Danzfg has been a great port for 300 years, has land locked waterways and extensive dock ing and warehouse facilities.
