HOARDERS Of gold in large num-
L i bers have defied the treasury, re-
fused to turn in their stores of the yell
low metal in exchange for other cur
rency, and challenged the authority Of
the government to coerce them or to
punish them for their stand. Among
those who are holding large supplies
of gold in safety deposit boxes are
many foreigners, both resident and
nonresident. All requests for licenses
to export this gold are refused by the
treasury, unless it is earmarked for
foreign governments, central banks or
the Bank of International Settlements
In addition to the foreign gold own
ers there are many domestic holders
of gold with large amounts in safety
deposit vaults. Some are known to
the treasury and were said to have
several million dollars in gold coin.
According to the information, they de-
clined to surrender the gold on the ad-
vice of attorneys, who planned to test
the law in the courts.
Indications pointed to a test case
within short time. The Department
of Justice probably will arrange to ex-
pedite the case so that prompt de-
cision may be obtained from the Su-
preme court.

BIKE MARK
BY GINO SINH

Two sinewy legs with the drive
of locomotive pistons and heart
Of steel are what Edgar Bieber, 20
year-old washington bike wizard,
banks on to carry him to a new
national 50-mile unpacked bicycle
record when he makes his attempt
around the Potomac Park polo
field at $50 a. m. tomorrow.
The mark, two hours and 16
minutes flat, was set by Walter
Jones at Stockton, Cal, on August
II, 1919.
Bieber rates an excellent chance.
On Palm Sunday, April 13. 1890,
he rode from the Capitol piazza
here to the City Hall in Balti-
more, distance of slightly more
than Al miles. in l hour 36 min
utes IA seconds. a record for the
distance, and considerably faster
than Jones own 40-mile national
record, which he established in
the same test in which he placed
the half-century standard on the
books.
Goes to Church
After his record try, which oc-
cured early in the morning,
Bieber, a good Catholic, rode
back to Washington and attended
II o'clock services at st. Patrick,
proof enough that he has plenty
of physical stamina:
If Bieber equals his 41-mile
time tomorrow, he will have more
than 40 minutes in which to COM
plete the remaining nine miles.
The long-distance bike rider
chief nemesis is the danger Of
catching a crab in the legs, q
stomach cramp or sudden eX-
haustion from the heat and tire
trouble.
Bieber has been working out
daily for the past two weeks
hardening himself for tomorrow's
ordeal. Never far out of top con-
dition since he took up bicycle
racing seriously eight years ago,
Ed, though not boastful, is con-
fident that he will turn the trick.
The young pedal wizard was
inspired to make the attempt on
the national record when he sue.
cumbed to the heat in the annual
50-mile Clock Memorial race in
Baltimore last year after he had
set a terrific pace for 35 miles.
He knows he can survive so miles
at top speed.
Well Ahead Each Time
It was the third year in a row
that Ed had failed to finish in
this gruelling test and each time
he was forced out when we'll
ahead. The first time, in 1880,
tire trouble forced him to the
sidelines. In 1881 cramps over
took him at the 30-mile post
with his nearest rival Tony Mug
gio, of Baltimore, far behind.
Muggio set a record for the
race that year.
Bieber was only one of many
who did not finish, for though
each year the Clock Memorial
has drawn a field of thirty or
more, practically all seasoned
racers, five is the most who ever
crossed the finish line.
The young Washingtonian won
a majority of the sprint and mid
die distance races conducted in
Washington and Baltimore dur
ing the past six yeaio.
In fact in recent years he has
been winning so regular that Bal
timore bike clubs fail to notify
him of their various open meets
nowadays. This also helped to
fan Bieber's ambition to break
the National record.
Ed holds the Middle Atlantic
five mile record, IL minutes and
II seconds. The M. A. 50-mile
mark is 2 hours q minutes, II
minutes above the United States
standard, set by Charles Clock,
