LAWYER LOSES GOLD
HOLDING APPEAL
District Court Upheld in Dis
missing Motion to Prevent
Prosecution.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 18.-The United
States Circuit Court of Appeals today
unanimously denied the appeal OF
Frederick Barber Campbell, lawyer
and capitalist, from decision OF the
District Court dismissing his motion
to enjoin the United States attorney
from prosecuting him for failure to
report the holding of gold bullion
worth about 100000.
The Court of Appeals also denied
Campbell's appeal from the District
Court denial of an order directing the
Chase National Bank to surrender the
gold to him and refuse its delivery
to the Government.
The appeal as to failure to report
holding of the gold was dismissed on
the ground that the court OF equity
has no authority to enjoin the Federal
prosecutor from bringing an alleged
offender into court fer trial unless
there shall exist specific conditions
which do not appear in the Campbell
case
The appeal as to the bank proceed
ing was denied without decision as to
the legality or constitutionality of the
gold boarding act on the ground
that Campbell should have sued in
the State courts to restrain the bank.
as he is a citizen of the State of New
York and the bank is engaged in busi-
ness within the State.

ENGLAND TO REPLY.
TO j. s. DEBT NOTE.
Macdonald Says No Islands
Will Be Offered as
Payment.
BY the Associated Press.

LONDON. June 18-Prime Minis
ter Ramsay Macdonald announced in
the House of Commons today that
the British government proposes to
reply to the United States war debt
note regarding the American sug-
gestion that Great Britain make a
payment in kind'-that is, in goods
and services.
Replying to a query from the floor
as to whether Great Britain would
consider handing over Bermuda or
other island territories adjacent to
the United States and which are no
longer of a defensive value to Great
Britain as a payment to the United
States, the prime minister said:
There could under no circum-
stances be any question of such an
arrangement"
Fears for Empire.
The question about Bermuda was
asked by Capt. Arthur Evens, Con-
servative. After the prime minister's
reply, John Lawson, Laborite, asked
caustically:
Can the government give any
guarantee the British Empire will be
left intact at the time OF the next
general election?"
MY honorable friend need be un-
der no delusion on that matter" the
prime minister returned.
Suggests Gift of Free State.
A Conservative backbencher ironi-
cally suggested the government might
be willing to hand over the Irish Free
State.
The house laughed. but the prime
minister made no reply. and the mat
ter ended there.

Discrimination Against
American Investors Warned
Against in Note.

BY the Associated Press.
A formal protest against the Ger
man moratorium on foreign debt pay
ments has been directed by the State
Department.
The department said today it had
instructed Ambassador William E.
Dodd. at Berlin, to inform the Ger
man government that the United
States expresses strong regret that
new hardships have been brought
upon American creditors holding Ger
man obligations.
Energetic Protest.
The department made the following
announcement:
THE Secretary of State on June 16
instructed the American Ambassador
at Berlin to protest formally and
energetically to the minister of foreign
affairs against the recent summary,
independent action of Germany with
respect to her external debts.
The Ambassador was instructed to
state that this action by Germany
seriously affects the Government of
Tie OIllUtu otdIcS dllu It's lldIlOIldlo,
and that the Government Of the
United States takes occasion to ex-
press its strongest regret that new
losses are thereby imposed upon
American citizens, and that debtor
creditor relations have been further
impaired.
Discrimination Warning.
1.-THE Ambassador was further in
structed to state to the German gov
ernment in regard to the question OF
discrimination against American in
vestors that the Government of the
United States would disapprove de-
velopments under which its investors
received poorer treatment than in
vestors of other countries.
''The Government of the United
States would be called upon to pro-
test any such discrimination.
1.-THE spectacle of having not only
to accept losses, but to perceive pay
ments to investors of other nationah-
ties at their expense would arouse a
sense of mistreatment among numer-
GUS American investors"

D|SARM|NG HOPE
PINNED ON NAVAL
PARLEY OPENING
London Group Expects
Strong Appeal From
Roosevelt.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated FreeB.
LONDON, June 18.-The convic-
ton that the worlds hopes for dis
armament or limitation of arma-
ments are now pinned primarily on
next years naval conference domi-
mated the Anglo-American naval con-
versations which began today with
two hour session at No. 10 Downing
street.
1t was stated authoritatively that
both the Americans and the British
virtually despair of any agreement at
Geneva unless the naval powers set
an example.
Even the Franco-German impasse
is regarded as being overshadowed by
the death-dealing reservations made
by Japan to the security disarmament
proposals at Geneva. 1t was regarded
here as impossible that either the
United States or Russia will make
arms commitments unless Japan does
likewise. The only chance of Jap
anese cooperation is expected at the
naval conference, now that she has
vetoed the most important Geneva
proposals.
Roosevelt Appeal Expected.
Brighter prospects for the naval
parley we're seen in more active par
ticipation by the United States than
was the case at Geneva. A strong
formal appeal by President Roosevelt
is expected in British political circles
to start the conference off with a
bang. It is expected here to be much
stronger than either of the two per-
sonal appeals the President made to
Geneva since he took office.
At the close of today's session it
was announced the conferees would
meet again Wednesday morning.
The American delegation today in
cluded Norman H Davis, Ambassador
at-large; Robert w. Bingham. AM
basSador to Great Britain Rear Ad-
miral Richard H. Leigh, naval ad-
wiser and Ray Atherton of the
American Embassy. They conferred
with Prime Minister j. Ramsay Mac
oil OOlLOll
first lord of the admiralty: Rear Ad-
miral Charles j. c. Little, deputy
chief of the naval staff, and Robert l..
Craigie of the foreign office.
Location Is Uncertain.
Although there are already strong
unofficial intimations that the parley
next year will be held in London, the
place and time will have to be settled
upon formally.
Diplomatic circles professed to see
possible change in Japan's view to-
ward London as a site. Although
previously Toxic had privately ap-
proved London, there was belief in
some quarters that Japan now be-
lieves the conference should be held
in a neutral city, possibly The Hague
or Brussels.
Because of indefniteness on this
matter, selection of the site may be
postponed until after the Anglo-Jap-
anese conversation late in July.

No decision for final recommends

Mead said that in the broadest
terms the Governments influence
should be removed from those plant:
and industries whose functions are
the least noticed in the economic
system.
Price Fixing Considered.
N. r. A., for instance, already has
eliminated from national supervision
certain of the purely service trades
such as barber shops. and the elim-
nation might be extended to include
others whose affairs have a loca
significance.
Consideration also was given tc
the problem of price fixing, and Meac
gave it as his personal opinion that
the recent N. r. A declaration
against any but the most lenient oi
price control policies was accurate.
The executives decided to set ur
a more permanent form of business
