ately gave it close study. Some were
disposed to label the maneuver "po-
litical expediency," but experts gen.
orally said it was a logical step in
the sequence of monetary events but
not positively in the direction of
sterilization.
The new plan, Mr.. Morgenthau
said, differs from the old gold stand
ard in that it will permit the export
or earmarking of gold only to and
between governments instead of
private business institutions and
traders.
''The door is wide open," said
Mr.. Morgenthau. "We're not going
out drumming up business, but we'll
welcome all other countries which
want to participate"
According to the Treasury depart
ment, the United States alone will
announce a selling price for gold.
France and England will keep their
selling prices secret, though there
will be a free flow of gold between
the sterilization funds of the three
nations.
1t was believed that Great Britain
was the prime mover in this new
pact. AS one commentator put it:
"The agreement was made neces-
sary when France debased her cur
rency and placed an embargo on
gold exports, because Great Britain
suddenly discovered that nowhere in
the world was there left a fixed
yardstick against which to measure
international commitments and han
die international exchange"

Japan "Not Fortifying"
Isles Under Mandate

TOR some time there have ap-
Il peared in print stories about
how Japan was establishing air and
submarine bases in the former Ger
man islands of the South Pacific
over which she holds a League of
Nations mandate. It has been ex-
pected that the leagues mandate
commission would investigate these
reports, and now Japan seeks to
forestall such action by a formal
report to the league in which she
asserts she has ''no Notifications,
military or naval bases" in those
islands. The Toxic government says
it is scrupulously observing that
part of the mandate which forbids
the use of the islands for military
purposes.
Following establishment of a
south seas bureau in April, 1882, all
Japanese armed forces and men of
war have been withdrawn gradually
from the islands, the report says,
adding that the natives of the is
lands never have been subjected
to military training.

will abdicate in favor of his brother,
the Duke of York, and marry the
attractive woman who has shared
so much of his time in recent
months. In support of this rumor
is the reported fact that plans are
being made for renting the farms
of the Sandringham estate in Nor
folk, which is the kings private
property. Also, there is a story
that this estate may be sold to the
Aga Khan, the immensely wealthy
spiritual head of the Ismaili sect
of Mohammedanism.
Should Edward give up the throne,
it would eventually be occupied by
Princess Elizabeth, eldest daughter
of the Duke of York, and this sue
cession would be decidedly popular
with the people of England. The
abdicating king might revert to the
dukedom of Cornwall, which pro-
vides a net income of about $3.50, 900.
There is nothing in British law to
prevent the king from marrying
whomsoever he pleases, but no ruler
of the country since Henry VIII has
welded a commoner. Court gossip
in London says that Prime Minister
Baldwin and the archbishop of Can
terbury recently appealed to Ed
ward for greater discretion in his
relations with Mrs. Simpson and
were holly rebuffed by the king.
English newspapers imposed on
themselves a voluntary censorship
in this affair, but it has been broken
by the Sunday Referee which prints
an article declaring the king may
marry by spring." that this would
result in postponement of the coro-
nation, and that tradesmen have
been insuring themselves against
such delay.

Five Groups Accused by

CHARGES filed in Washington by

accuse five trade associations of at

PENDANTS in the suit.
The commission points out that
the associations represent Sub

ume of business of all manufacture
ers and jobbers of automobile parts

charges that these groups "have

Russia Using Spanish War
TO Foment Discord

to Foiment DlScord
G OVIET RUSSIA made a second
~ determined effort to aid the be-
leaguered government of Spain,
and sustained a second rebuff. Ivan
Maisky, Russian ambassador to
England, handed to Lord Plymouth,
British chairman of the non-inter-
vention committee, a virtual ulti-
matum demanding immediate con-
vocation of the committee to con-
slider blockading the coast of Por-
tugal against arms shipments des-
tined for the Spanish insurgents. 1t
was understood in London that Lord
Plymouth replied that if the propo-
sition were seriously made, it should
be presented through diplomatic
channels to the governments con-
cerned. The Russian plan was for a
blockade by English of French war
ships.
Observers in Europe are con-
WINGED that the Soviet government
does not expect the powers to agree
to any such blockade as is sug-
gested, but is chiefly interested in
stirring up discord.
Leaders of the Fascists were re-
ported to have planned steady,
steam-roller advance on Madrid,
and this offensive was already under
way. The defenders of the capital
were hastily building Notifications
in the suburbs and surrounding the
city with trenches. In Oviedo the
dynamite-armed force of 1oyalist
miners was still battling with the
garrison and rebel troops sent to
the rescue were about to enter the
city.

RELIEF IS RUSHED
BY WHITE HOUSE
President Delays Trip.Again,
Calls Leaders to ParIey
on Flood.

President Roosevelt again delayed
his vacation departure today to remain
in personal command of the Federal
mobilization to aid food sufferers.
Although satisfied the Capital has
escaped the full force of the disaster,
Mr.. Roosevelt deemed it advisable to
remain in the White House at least
for another "a hours.
While the Government considered
spending total approaching s4O0.-
00o, 900 to aid those IN distress and
check similar disasters in future, the
President summoned to his desk this
morning Secretary of War Dern, chair
man of the Emergency Flood Commit
tee; Rear Admiral Cary T. Grayson,
chairman Of the American Red Cross,
and Gen. Malin Craig, Army chief of
staff.
Flood Control Bill Pushed.
Meanwhile, a Senate committee
drafted Army engineers to work out
a bill authorizing $300,000,00o for
flood control throughout the Nation.
The Works Progress Administration
already has allotted s18,000,000 for
food relief and rehabilitation. Bills
also were pending to spend IS 100000
to $4,000, 900 more in Pennsylvania
alone.
Before the President summoned his
flood relief advisers. he was repre-
sented at the White House as being
concerned chiefly with overnight re-
ports regarding the rising Ohio River.
Army reports to the White House
also indicated the only real concern
at the moment was in connection with
the Ohio River below Wheeling, w. Va.
The lowlands along the river, particu-
larly in the vicinity of Covington,
KY, and Cairo, Ill, will be hard hit
today or tomorrow, it was predicted.
The President felt relieved at Army
reports that the Mississippi was not
likely to overflow to any extent.
Response PIeases President.
The President obviously was pleased
at the response to his proclamation
yesterday asking generous contribu-
tions so the Red Cross could raise
