GOLD SHIPMENTS
SHOWING INCREASE
Movement of Metal From
New York to London
Expected to Gain.
BY CHARLES F. SPEARE.


NEW YORK, December 13.-The
outstanding event in the international
banking world yesterday was another
reduction in the rediscount rate Of the
Bank of England to 5 per cent. Since
the break in stock prices In the
American market in November, fol-
lowed by a lowering of Federal Re-
serve Bank rates from per cent to
Az per cent, the Bank of England has
made an equivalent reduction in bring
ing its of11cial quotation down from Ga
per cent to per cent.
The rate announcement was followed
by the news that very heavy engage
mentS Of gold for London had been ne
gotiated In this city. One institution
arranged to ship $11, 100000 and other
substantial sums Of the yellow metal.
It usually happens that when the
English bank rate is changed, either up
or down, the continental banks Of issue
follow suit. This they did q few weeks
ago when the British bankers cut their
rate from 61z to 5h per cent. Con-
sequently general modifying Of rates
throughout Europe Is looked for In the
next few weeks.
Swedish Bank Acts.
The Bank of Sweden took immediate
action when it reduced its rate from
51h to 5 per cent. It has just come to
light that Sweden has been buying gold
in this market. For the first time since
1927 shipments to that country have
been arranged in moderate amounts.
The highest rediscount rates current
in Europe are those of per cent fixed
by the Bank of Germany and the Bank
Of italy. In Germany there Is con-
siderable credit disturbances which Is
linked in with the present cabinet
crisis, so there are no clear views as to
how far Germany will be able i'm
mediately to adjust its money rates to
those Of its continental neighbors. The
Bank Of italy has been intimating that
it might bring down its rate from the
present high level within short period.
Denmark, Norway and Spain still quote
an official rate Of 512 per cent. In
Holland and Belgium the rate is Az
per cent and is not likely to be changed,
while France and Switzerland maintain
the 3l2 per cent rate which they have
quoted all through the period of nearly
two years of rising discounts in the
money markets Of the world.
Gold Movement.
The extent Of the gold movement
from the United States to Europe is a
circles. That it will be considerable Is
not disputed. It is expected also to
have a moderate effect on domestic
interest rates and to offset slightly the
influence of the def1ation in prices of
securities. It is the policy of the
Federal Reserve Board to encourage
those Federal Reserve Banks that have
not already done so to reduce their
rates to Az per cent in line with New
York, Chicago, Boston, San Francisco
and Atlanta and, when this has been
done, to take up the question as to
whether the rate in New York should
be further lowered to per cent.

CURB ISSUES DROP
AFTER EARLY GAIN
Market Leaders Encounter
Renewed Selling Pressure
After Rally.
BY JOHN A. CRONE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 13.-After
3altering at the opening and then
marching forward briskly within few
minutes, the Curb market today was
compelled to make an orderly retreat
as offerings increased.
Utilities, leaders of the early advance,
first fell back. They were followed by
investment and trading companies, oils
and some of the volatile industrialS.
Motors and mines resisted before giving
ground, but aviation shares turned ir-
regular.
Electric Bond and Share was up frac..
tionally at the opening. A string OF
sales carried it from 81 to 81 befoFe the
speculative leader encountered sufficient
offerings to push it back about z points.
American SGperpower moved in some
what similar manner. American Gas

ard Power & Light ranged widely.

Cities Service opened slightly lower,
being quoted ex-dividend, then nearly
recovered its initial loss before dipping
again. This likewise was true OF Stand
ard Oil of Indiana and Transamerica
Corporation.
illinois Pipe Line, which gave way
yesterday, following the exchange otfer
of Ohio OH preferred new for outStand-
ing Illinois Pipe shares, broke II points
by midday. Some of the natural gas
stocks, such as Lone Star Gas and
United Gas, slowed their pace.
Otis Elevator new, representing a
four-for-one split of the outstanding
shares, appeared on the Curb a few
minutes after the opening at rs, up
nearly points over its final quotation
on the Produce Exchange yesterday.
Dubilier Condenser Corporation started
an upward move, nipped in the bud by
the general market in the forenoon,
based on the signing of a license agree
ment with Western Electric and Amer
lean Telephone g. Telegraph, from
which Dubilier receives cash and per
cent royalty on all new sets.
Rail Stock Advances.
Fox Theaters A weakened in SYM
pathy with Fox Film over on the big
board. Aluminium Co. of America
opened down 10 and Great Atlantic and
Pacific Tea opened down 6. Chesapeake

general trend in rails by fractionally
advancing.
Specific developments of favorable
nature, in some instances, were not i'm
mediately reflected on the tape. Parke
Davis & Co. declared a special dividend
of 35 cents. Detroit Aircraft acquired
Gliders, Inc. Neither of these develop
ments had immediate effects.

blazing in his dark blue eyes.
"You are not hurt, I trust" he
asked, his breath coming quickly, tor
he was in a towering passion. He
was not speaking to the darker OF the
two girls at all; in fact, he was uncon-
scious of her presence. He was stand

into her cheeks, and the terror dying
out OF her eyes, to be replaced by a
far softer light. Her black lace wrap,
which she had been wearing in Span

The Englishman looked at the other

came up and joined them. Her dark
eyes were full OF tears and her face
was troubled. There was very little

her head resting upon her hands, she
was gazing across the blue sunlit
waters OF the bay. Below, hidden by
the thickly-growlng shrubs, was the
white, dusty road, and the voice which
disturbed her thoughts seemed to
come from it. She pushed the white
Towering rhododendrons on one side,
and peered through.
"Leonardo!' she exclaimed. Leon
ardo!"
Are you alone?" he asked.
Eyes. Ardienne is in the house, /

"Then l am coming in"
She looked troubled, but she could
not send him away. He clambered
over the low paling, and, pushing back
the boughs of the shrubs which grew
between them, made his way up the
bank to her side.
Have you been away?" she asked.
Eyes, L have been home. Home"
he repeated bitterly. Il have wan
dered through the woods, and / have
climbed the kills wt;s:e we spent our
childhood. ! have looked upon the old
scenes, and luy heart is broken"
Her eyes filled with tears. For a
moment her Thoughts, too, went back
to the days when they had been chill
dren together, and he had been her
hero brother. How time had changed
them both, and how far apart they had
drifted. They could never be the
same again. She knew it quite well.
There had grown up great barrier
between them. She could not even
pretend to sympa.hize with him,
although her heart was still full OF
pity.
Leonardo, l am sorry" she whis-
pcred. How is it, 1 wonder, that all
through life you seem to have set your
heart upon things which are impos-
sible."
1T is fate!"
Fate! But you are man, and
man should control fate"
Have I not tried?" he answered
bitterly. "Tell me, do l so easily
relinquish my great desire? Why am
l here? Because / have said to myself
that I will not be denied. Adrienne

She looked at him steadily.
