glistened in victory today while the
financial metropolis hailed the end Of
Europe's long drain on American gold.
The Bank Of France converted the
last Of its dollar balances into gold yes
terday for eventual lodgment in its own
vaults. That meant America had sue
cessfully met all foreign demands on its
gold supply. bankers said. and that the
dollar had emerged winner from the
severest pressure ever imposed on cur
rency.
Thereupon there Occurred in the for

the removal OF one OF the principal
factors leading to q lack Of confidence
In business and financial circles.

as one Of the most remarkable achieve
ments in financial history-the repay

criticisms Of Interested parties" in the
Lindbergh kidnapping case for alleged
failure to cooperate with Official IN
vestigators was seen in a message from
j. Edgar Hoover director of the United
States Bureau of Investigation, read al
the annual convention here today OF
the International Association of Chiefs
OF Police.
Without referring to the Lindbergh
case by name, Hoover declared that
law enforcement officers cannot be
charged with derelictions In the per-
formance Of their duties when they are
not furnished with the essential avail
able information in the possession of in
terested parties concerning a crime in
the initial stages OF an investigation"
Defends Law Officers.
The statement followed a vigorous de-
tense Of law enforcement officers in the
war on crime and told OF difficult
problems" which have resulted in in
dividual crimes that have shocked the
neral sense of the community"
Il believe II may be safely stated,
Hoover's message said that the pro-
tectors Of society have held their own
There are certainly no signs that the
situation has or will pass beyond their
control. Even the gloomiest pessimist
must admit there is no indication that
either in the near or distant future will
the forces of law and order fail to func-
ton efficiently and we'll Fortu-
nately there are no indications that the
police Of the country will fail to stem
any tide of crime or violence that may
Be directed against person or property
anywhere in this country"
Hoover also expressed his very posi-
tive opinion" that If anything wrong
exists with police departments any,
where in this country it is due pri-
marily not t. the Inability or the I'M
willingness OF the police to function
efficiently and we'll themselves, but to
manifold phases Of undesirable and
often positively harmful influences, not
only Of a political character. although
this is damaging enough, but influence
CT all kinds and types, social and
economic pressure from almost in
Vulnerable sources"
Leave the police alone and you will
have no cause to criticize them" the
convention was told
Hoover's statement was read by Chief
Inspect-r J Solomon Eagsn Of the
