'SGOLD
SUPPLY RISES

The Bank of England has more
gold than ever before in its his
tory, according to a report today
to the Commerce Department by
Trade Commissioner r. r. Town
send, in London.
Gold holdings stood on April 5
at f177,360, ,405, at par. The previ
Gus high was &176,585 900, on Sep
tember IL, 1928.
The present gold influx began
in January, and in two and a half
months more than G56,5OO,OOO
have been added to the banks
stock. The present gold supply
is &40,5OO,O00 higher than in Sep
tember, 1881, when Great Britain
went off the gold standard.
London believes that Great
Britain intends to return to the
gold standard before the end of
the year, and that the bank in.
tends to amass a reserve of &250.-
100000 before going back on gold.
But if the pound we're stabilized
at present figures that goal is
reached.

ON GAS BILL.

Considering the gas merger bill
emergency legislation, Represen-
tative Mary T. Norton CD) of
New Jersey, chairman of the
House District Committee, will
call on House leaders to bring
up the measure during this Ses-
sion OF Congress, she said today.
Although it was thought at first
that no District legislation would
be considered in this session be-
cause Of the Presidents emer-
gency program, Mrs. Norton said
she considers this measure in
line with the Administration pol
icy in view of the fact that it
is intended to give additional en-
ployment.
Mrs. Norton, who sponsored the
bill, said officials of the Washing
ton and Georgetown Gas Light
companies have assured her that
merger of the two companies
will provide employment for
thousands of people.
The measure is now before the
public utilities subcommittee of
the District Committee and it is
expected it will be reported out
within a few days.
The bill passed the House dur
ing the last session but was held
up in the Senate by the late
Senator Robert B. Howell of Ne
braska. who objected to certain
features.

Larger Alaskan
Gold OUTPUT Seen

Mild weather has permitted the
early resumption of gold placer
mining in the interior of Alaska,
and four large dredges have
started operations in the Fair
banks district. Winter prospect
ing in the Fairbanks district has
been very encouraging and there
is every prospect of increased pro-
duction this season.
Easter Creek, in this district,
has just been taken over by a
large company and dredges will
be used in remining the area.
Cold weather still prevails in the
Nome mining district, but accord
ing to reports, sufficient snow has
fallen during the winter to insure
an adequate water supply for
summer mining.
