WASHINGTON - During debate on the lease-lend bill, Senator Mur- ray of Montana came up to the Vice-President's dais and whispered in Henry Wallace's ear. The bill, he said, ought to contain provision whereby Britain would buy or bor- row farm products as well as arma- ments.
 President Wallace replied that he though so too, but had not felt it necessary to "spell it out" in the bill. However, he mentioned the matter ot Senate Floor Leader Bark ley, who offered an amendment to the lease-lend bill
 This was the simple mechanics whereby the biggest farm purchase plan since the last war was started.
 Most people don't realize it, but the lease-lend act makes the United States not only the arsenal for Great Britain. but also her granary, packing house ana slaughter house.
 A total of 00,000,000 has been allocated out of the seven billions of British defense-m of which should bring sorely needed help to the farmer. For while industrial re- gions have prospered in this war, the farmer so far has not.
 In the last war not only England, but France, Italy and the Scandi- navian countries, even Russia need ed wheat and cotton. Farm prices zoomed. But in this war all these areas except England have been cut off from American markets by the British blockade.
 As a result, farm prices are low and surpluses mounting. We have 2 corn carry-over four times normal, or TOO O,0OO,OO bushels. The wheat carry-over is 4O0,OO0,00 bushels; while the Government has 11,000 ,00O bales of cotton under loan or wholly owned, plus 372.000,o0o pounds of tobacco, 2,735, 900 pounds of surplus butter. 3,600 009 dozen surplus eggs, 37.OOO.OOO pounds of surplus vege-

Nine Billion Dollars in Gold Transferred, Assay
 Office 10 Hole in Ground
By JACK STINNETT

WASHINGTON, March 22. = Thought-for- Today Dep't-Accord- ing to the Treasury Department, the Government has just complet- ed transfer of nine billion dollars in gold from the Assay Office ti New York City to the "hole in the ground at Fort Knox, Ky.
 This latest transfer took eight months. The gold was shipped by registered mail in AS trains con- sisting of 337 cars. Thirty four Army enlisted men and two off cers, in addition to Bureau of the Mint guards, accompanied every train. The gold is in the form of standard gold bricks (mint bars) which are just a little smaller than standard building bricks. However, that doesn't make them good for use as Irish confetti" because each brick weighs 271s pounds and besides each one is worth $l4,- GOO and who would be tossing money like that around. Comple- tion of this latest transfer brings the total of gold buried in the vaults of Fort Knox to $14,579, ,591, : 387.22.
 What gives Treasury Secretary Morgenthau's announcement its thoughtful twist" is that just when these trains were pulling out of Pennsylvania station in New York under a blanket of great secrecy, Dr. William D. Coolidge, General Electric's direc- tor of research was writing an ar- ticle for national magazine (Am- erican magazine). He was talking about the ways young people oi today might make fame and for tune. Doctor Coolidge said: I've been wondering what we should dc if our immense hoard of gold be- comes valueless, as some econo- mists predict. Gold. pampered aris- tocrat among metals, is of little practical good. Some day we may have to take it back to the labora- tory and work out some useful menial task for it. The man who discovers what to do with gole may make a fortune"

'GeneaIogist' Is Accused
Of Fleeing Ickes

AS the aftermath of charges bv
Secretary Of the Interior Ickes that
he was f1eeced of 81 and furnished
with a non-eXistent coat of arms of
his family, Samuel Adelman has
surrendered to the United States
Attorneys Office here and is being
held under 1000 bond on charges
Of conspiracy and using the mails
to fraud.
Assistant United States Attorney
Allen j. Krouse, who made the
announcement, said he has been
Informed that Adelman's brother.
Benjamin has been served with a
Federal warrant in Miami. Fla, on
the same charges. Mr.. Krouse said
the brothers operated the American
Research Bureau and the National
Research Society, 527 Ninth street
NV.
Attorney I. Brill who represents
the brothers, said Benjamin Adei-
man is coming back to Washington
voluntarily.
The case has been continued
until April by United States Com
missioner Turnage.
Secretary Ickes complained that
the genealogy he received was a
verbatim copy from book and that
what was represented to be an
accurate coat of arms of his family
appeared to be pure invention, as
he said research by two or three
members of his family failed to re-
veal that the Ickes family ever had
a coat of arms.
