Youthful King of Belgians
 Wins Approual as Ruler;
 Relaxes in Family Circle
By EDWARD TRAUs

BRUSSELS, June T. - Belgium has discovered in her new king, Leopold III, a man she never knew.
 So long as the late King Albert lived, his personality dominated and the son was looked upon as timid and preoccupied.
 Only those who were admitted to the then princes circle knew that there was more than melancholy dreaming behind his blue-grey eles.
 Measures Up To Job
 Belgium has learned the measure of her new ruler from the very outset of that crowded week that followed his fathers tragic death. She found him well-prepared for for his task and fully aware of his responsibilities
 Leopold II is an early riser and hard worker. He is at his desk shortly after o'clock each morn ing and, like his father, scans all reports submitted for his ap- proval.
 Happy In Family Circle
 But as king, no less than as prince, his happiest hours are those which he is allowed to devote to his family, which is due for an increase.
 During these brief recesses, shared by Queen Astrid, he lives as free man." playing with his children or smoking his pipe and drinking a glass of "gueuze," the Belgian national beer He is a moderate eater and drinker, but a confirmed smoker
 He likes sports, being com plete athlete" who is fond of golf, motoring, football, tennis, swim ming, skating, toboganning, skiing, climbing, hunting, riding, fishing and dancing-but above all these he prefers the home life.

CODE FOR GOLD. INDUSTRY SOON
 TO BE APPROVED.
PR. Bradley Gives History of Movement -Win-
 gard Optimistic

Indications are that the national code for the gold mining industry will be effective by July 1, the Chamber of Commerce was told to- day by P. R. Bradley, President of the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company. He explained the code making processes and reviewed the various steps taken since last Au- gust by the industry to work out a code.
 Responsibility for lack of one much earlier than now he placed on the MIRA Administration in Washington. The operators, he de- clared, as long ago as the last of September or the first of October last year approached it with ten tative code and were informed to forget it for the time being.
 Gives Its History
 Giving the history of the propos- ed code, now before Washington authorities, and which was, he said, not fully understood because it had never been given any publicity, MT. Bradley said the first steps were taken last August. Representatives of groups comprising 80 percent of the output and employment of the industry met in San Francisco We all got scared" he remarked, "hut like when Alaska went dry in 1917 and people were bothered about what they were going to do for li- quor to wrink, we got over our scare"
 The San Francisco gathering worked out the details of a pro- posed code. During the latter part of September or early in October representative of this group went to Washington. He was told "by someone" connected with the NRA that that body didn't want to bother with a gold code at that time. The Administration was too busy with codes of industries in which there was much greater em- ployment. Even the peanut indus try, he added, was more import ant.
 Allowed To Rest
 After that the matter was al- lowed to rest until it was revived by Washington officials who sug- gested this Spring that a code be presented. Subsequent to that rep resentatives of the same original group again met in San Francisco and revised the code it had pre- pared last year They met in New York on April IA to discuss it and finally approved and submitted it to the Administration, in whose hands it now is, on April IT, in Washington.
 Some of the 20 per cent of the industry not represented in the preparation of the first code, dis satisfied with it, prepared a second code for presentation. The only difference between the two, MT. Bradley said, was that the first ex- empted all development work from it's provisions while the second ex- empted prospecting. The first group failed to recognize prospecting.

Foundation Of Peace
 Depends On E Education
Coming Generations Face Responsibility Pre-
 ventiOn Theme of Armistice Day Addresses

"The old day and most of the ideas of old days are dead and it depends upon the education the coming generation receives wheth- CT or not the foundations of peace are to be laid," Margaret Stat fery, author and educator, declared in her discourse on "Foundations of World Peace" at the Second Congregational church forum last night.
 The speaker condemned the at- tempt in many colleges to force students to accept military train ing. stating it should be left with the parents to decide whether their sons are to bea rarms. She said America fought in the World War to save democracy but there is no democracy today. Dictatorships, she said, are creeping up all over the world to crush democracy and a shadow of dictatorship is fall- ing across America.
 eThere will come a day" the speaker said, when the founda- tions of world peace will be so we'll laid that the powers of greed in the world will not be able to oyerturn it. When I think of the progress humanity has made from the jungle, I believe, in spite of the present dismal outlook that these foundations will be laid soon."
