"The seizure leaves Germany

1T Is likely the Allies will
take the gold as a reparation.
That means Germany won't
have any gold to back up her
currency and her money won't
be any good outside Germany"
Palyi said the German gold re-
serve in 1899 officially was esti-
mated at S7O,000,000. An addi-

Child, 4,

when the body of their missing
child was found in a canal 20 feet
from their home. II was the sec
ond time Mr.. and Mrs. Ben Ealy
of 22505 Benjamin last a child in
a similar way.
Object of a 24-hour search by
ST. Clair Shores police and 100
civilians and coastguardsmen. the
girl was found drowned today
when Sgt, Al Vandekoye and
Patrolman Gordan Slower drapped
the canal. The body was in 18
feet of water.
Two years ago, Garry Lee. 4.
a brother of Dorothy. was drowned
in the canal. The Ealys have seven
other children. The oldest son Is
a marine in the south Pacific. The
youngest is an infant.
The parents and neighbors re-
fused TO believe the child had
fallen into either the canal or
nearby Lake st. Clair because
there were many persons in the
vicinity when Dorothy ran out
of the front door. No one had
reported a trace of her after that,
however.
Easements. garages and out.
buildings were searched over a
tWo-suuare-mile area after her
