Gold Rushed to d. c. Banks.
A lot more gold was turned in at the
windows of Washington banks today,
the last day for surrenering gold under
the recent Government order. A great
deal of gold was also presented at the
local banks yesterday. much Of the
money coming from safe deposit boxes.
1t was also brought in suitcases, boxes
and in various kinds of bundles, the
aim being to conceal it from the public.
After today the banks can continue
to take whatever gold is offered. But
they cannot pay in full for it. A report
must be sent to the Treasury and in
structions received in each case. On
account of the extra work entailed,
some of the banks are planning to re-
fer gold depositors direct to the Treas
ury.
Bank officials have to list the amount
of gold. find out how and why the
holder possesses it and other pertinent
facts The Treasury may then instruct
payment in full or apply fine or pen
atty to delinquent holders, according
to the circumstances surrounding each
individual case.
1t was learned today that a good
many 81, $3.50, SIS and $40 gold pieces
are not being turned in. What the
Government really wants are the large
sums, bankers say, and they look for
no trouble over small amounts that
may have been family possessions for
great many years.

BODY Of CHILD
FOUND IN FIELD
Police OF Five States Seek
to Solve Darien, Conn.,,
Mystery.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DARIEN, Conn, June 23-The po-
lice of five States sought tonight to
penetrate the mystery surrounding
the discovery today of the body of a
child in a field not far from the Bos-
ton Post road, as Darien authorities
became convinced that death had re-
suited from violence.
The discovery was made by George
Cable, 39-year-old World War Vet
eran. 60 feet off Mansfield avenue and
1000 feet from the Post road
Cable notified police. who said the
body was so lady decomposed that
the sex of the child could not be de-
termined Immediately.
Believed Dead Four Months.
Dr. William H. Slaughter. medical
examiner for Darien, said the body
proba bly, had been in the field four
months or more. He ordered it re-
moved to an undertaking parlor for
further examination.
Darien police sent out a description
as far as they were able and what
little other information they have on
the police electric typewriter system
to neighboring States in the hope that
some clue might be brought to light.
Detective Lieut.. Amos Anderson, in
charge Of the investigation, said he
was certain that the body had been
carried to the spot where Oalbe found
it, possibly from some other State.
Body Covered With Vines.
A thorough check of missing per-
sons records by police here and in
surrounding communities failed tc
show any child unaccounted for.
Cable told police that he had just
stepped over a fence at the edge OF
the field when he saw the body in the
underbrush.
1t was face down, Cable said, and
covered with vines.
Police believe the vines were placed
there by whoever deposited the body
in the field
DR.. Fred A. Reininger, a prominent
New York dentist living in Darien
examined 20 teeth found in the skull
and said from their condition the
child probably was between and 5
years old.
Only pair of tattered blue trousers
was found near the body, but police
did not connect them in any way with
the mystery.
