GENERAL BUYING MOVEMENT IN BONDS
 AWAk|NG BUSINESS

NEW YORK, June 6. Impress ed by the determination of Con- gress to balance the federal budget New York bankers have formed a giant bond pool" to bolster prices and restore financial confidence.
 This mobilization of financial resources is expected to be brought about by the committee of 12 lead ing financierS and industrialiStS appointed last week by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to con- sider plans to put into use the large credits that currently are being pumped into the market by the Federal reserve banks in their easy money campaign.
 A general buying movement in bonds would be the most likely manner in which banks could force their idle credits into general business channels, and reports are current that such an attempt will be made shortly.

PRES. H|NDENBERG
 RETIRING IN FAVOR OF
 FORMER GROWN PRINCE

BERLIN, June 6. It has been learned from verdi reliable sources that it is the intention of President Paul von Hindenberg to retire from his position as pre- sident of the German re p ublic and leave the field open to the former crown prince. This move would restore the Hohenzollern family back to power, it is said, and the ruling of Germany would probably be under the direction of the former Emperor, Wilhelm II, who is now in exile at Doorn, Hol- land.
 The move has been denied in of ficial circles but since the report comes from such resources it Is highly probable that theFe may be something to it.
 Hindenberg, who recently was a successful candidate for ele c ion for president for seven-year per iod, is scheduled to resign from his presidential position on Oct ober 2, when he will be 05 years of age.
