ADJUSTMENT OF
 WORLD GOLD WAS
 TAKEN UP TO-DAY
Experts of Bank of France and Bank of England Studied the Problem of Its Future Distribution

Paris, Jan 2-UP)-The problem of adjustment of world gold distri- button was taken up to-day in a preliminary meeting of experts of the Bank of France and the Bank of England at the ministry of finance. With France and the United States now holding about GO per cent of the worlds gold supply. cause of alarm
 in some sources in France and elsewhere. the experts discussed preparations for conference which would be held later in London. The conference would be for discussion of plans for Franco British cooper ation in solving the gold problem. Certain French and British experts and economists recently have blamed the maladjustment of gold reserves for economic problems. A spokesman for the Bank of France discussing the gold problem. said the monetary policy of Eng lafd, rather than of France. should be blamed for the recent flow of gold to France. England could
 halt the shipments either by re- ducing her discount rate to at
 tract foreign capital or by seeking a ] foreign loan" he said.

 DIED LAST YEAR
But More Children Were Born, l93O, the Year of Great Economic Depres- sion, Than in 1929

Chicago. Jan 2.-UP)-Fewer persons were married and fewer died, but more children were born in 1880, the year of economic de- pression. than in 1929. a survey by the United Press in II representa- tive American cities showed to-day In all except one city listed there weer marked decreases in the num- Der of marriages. In almost every instance, the county clerk or judges said the decrease was due to econ omic depression. The exception was Albany. N. r., with l .195 mar riages in 1929 and 1880 in 1880.
 In Detroit, County Clerk Thoma" F. Farrell said: "The decline is not confined to Detroit" He was speak ing of the decrease there from 33, 71O births in 1929 to 32,585 in 1880. Ut is general all over the country. Increasing knowledge of birth control and economic stress OH married couples are the most inn portant factors. Babies cost money.
 While the number of marriages decreased in all but one of the I cities in the list. the number of births decreased in only four. Tho number of deaths was larged in cities, In most cities where fig ures were availa ble. increases were shown in the number fo suicides and homicides in 1930. In Chicago, there were 487 homicides in 1930. compared to 391 in 1929. The num- Der of suicides increased from SOC in 1929 to 5S1 in 1880.
