Washington. Feb. 8. Willingness. to
undertake development of, an Interna
tional sold exchanco fund to facilitate
financial transactions between natloni
without actual shipment of cold was
YnraAri inilav hv tho EVderal Reserve
LiBoard In Its report for 1918. This ar-
"wwrement -would be similar to tnatnow
3 maintained by the board to settlo bal-
.... ... l 1. 1.1.1.. .W. TTntl.J
1 States.
Tho fund mlKht be developed araonK
jV tho Entente nations nnd a few leadlnR
! nallfrala tiiif It I nnolvah1rt That nil
civilized countries may eventually do
participants,'' said the board. Tho gold
would be deposited In trust In somo gov
ernment bank or banlsB to Guarantee e
change obligations, and It was proposed
that the fund should bo limited to cur
rent commercial and exchange trans
actions, c!
Scheme Mutt Walt on rente
This Is one of tho suggestions for fu
ture financial development growing out
of successful domestlo war operation ,ot
Tho Federal Reserve system, which the
report reviewed In detail.. Referring to
the settlement of trado balances In this
country through the Federal Reserve
clearing channels, the report says:
"Tlie successful operation of the gold
settlement fund has suggested the possi
bility 'of avoiding shipments of gold
from one country to another In settle
ment of balances arising out of ordinary
commercial transactions, and tho board
Is ready, If authorized to do so, to un
dertake negotiations looking to tho es
tablishment, of an international gold ex
change fund or to assist In any way In
Its power In negotiations which may bo
begun by a government department look
ing to that end. Tho board believes
that definite plans cannot perhaps bo
worked out until a stable peace has been
alsured.
Saying Would De "llnorraous"
"Assuming that tho leading nations
of the world will bo at peace for a long
period of years, thero seems to be no
reason why an International arrange
ment of this kind Bhould not operate as
efficiently as our own gold settlement
fund, which has cleared enormous tran
sactions between distant, sections of a
country of vast area.
flavins Would lie "llnormous"
The saving of loss and expenso In
cident to abrasion and transportation
charges and Interest on gold transferred,
will be enormoui and the advantage to
the commerce of tho world will bo In
calculable." MThe ability of the country to absorb
" Investments has proved to be far great
er than had been anticipated," said tho
report, "and our credit structure, al
though expanded, is unshaken. We have
no currency problems, and conditions
are. not comparable with those which
existed at tho closo of tho Civil War.
True, tho purchasing rower of money
has declined, but this Is due to tho urg
ent and abnormal demand for goods and
eerrlces arid tho. accompanying expan
sion of credit and currency."
Warning against danger In tho post
war readjustment, the board says:
"Drastics contraction would bo fol
lowed by results no less disusterous than
those which would nttentl uuduo expan
sion, and the processes of deflation
must, therefore, bo permitted to work
themselves out In a gradual nnd orderly
manner."

Tho market ruled Arm on choice stock of
mnmt descrlntlons with offerings And demand
moderate. 'Tho quotations were-Apples. New
WlinN wo trot to Mrs. Sfempcrs's after
dinner at tho Albatross Bruno
Duko was there.
AVhen ho saw me he cave mo a smllo
of warm, friendly, confidential welcome.
'Welcomo back, friend Peter. I liopo
you had a eood rest and found all your
people well nnd happy."
"Splendid, thank you, Mr. Duke. Hope
you are In tho pink."
Bruno truke looked at me In an
amused kind of way and said, "You'vo
lost jour lease."
"Lost my how's that? What do you
mean?" 1 exclaimed.
"I saw your landlord and manired to
get a cancellation of the contract on
your office for a month's rent paid In
advance. I paid It, and so you owo me
that,"
"I don't see how you managed It
the agent Is such a stuck-up kind of a
chap."
"Simple," answered Duke, "with tha,t
kind of a man. I appealed to his vanity.
I painted a picture of his mairnanlmlty
In letting you pit. lie becamo anxious
to release vou Just to enjoy tho sensa
tlfcn of being a kind of philanthropist."
"Then," I said In surprise, "the offlco
Is already shut?"
"Very much so. Tho furnlturo haa
already been returned. Tho stationery
I have given to Abercromble at his re
quest, although why I don't know, for
It has your name on It,"
"Perhaps lies going to print his name
on It as "iuccecsor to,' or perhaps h's
going to cut It up for scribbling papor.
A Scotchman dislikes to see anything
wasted."
"Your namo Is off tho door, tho type
writer Is returned to tho maker, and
thus AH traces of your real estato ven-,
ture hav been dissipated,"
"Mr. Duke " I had drawn up a chair
near his and began to speak earnestly
In an undertone, "why havo you done
all this for me joti, the leading busi
ness counselor In the country, wasting
jour time on such trivial things?"
"Because I wanted to relievo j-our
mind of overj-thlng which might cause
jou tinrcRt. I want j-oti to bo ciulto
freo to think over an offer I proposo
making you. An offer which. If you ac
cept, will rerjulro all jour attention,"
"That sounda very Interesting, Mr.
Duke. What ,d It?"
"I'll take It up with jou In tho morn
ing," ho said. "Will j-ou como around
to mj- room on Seventy-seventh street
at how docs D:30 suit J-ou?"
"I'll bo there, Mr. Duke."
It was the first tlmo I'd been to his
rooms and there I had a surprisq. Ho
has a sulto of rooms nil to himself In
a rather old but comforlablo building
on Seventy-seventh street.
Duke's sulto Is on the second floor.
Ho has a man to look lifter It. When
I rang tho bell tho man opened the
door and ajd: "Mr. Duko expects jou
Mr. Flint." Ho took my hat and coat
and showed mo to tho dining room.
Thero was Duke, having breakfast,
"Como right along, Peter." To his
man ho called, "Walter, bring Mr. Kllnt
a cup of coffee. Then to mo he said
again with that amused expression
so .typical of him:
"Hero In my own sanctum I can
Indulge my fancies. Among my flowers
and my music (he nodded In the direc
tion of tho living room, he calls It his
music room, where I caught a glimpse
of a grand piano, on which I noticed
a violin), I can forget business and
Its problems."
Walter had brought In a pot of
steaming strong coffeo nnd served me.
Ho then brought a hookah, which he lit
for Duke, who puffed conlentejly for
a few minutes and then said abruptly:
"Friend Peter, here's my suggestion
for you."
Chicago, Feb. 8. General business
continues along the same general lines
as during reeont weeks. Trade Is sat
Isfactorj', everything considered. In a
number of lines, but the situation re
mains full of uncertainties. Tho Teace
Conference Is being closely watched, but
deliberations up to the present time have)
made no distinctive Impression on ths
publlo mind. It Is conceded, however,
that the delegates are proceeding as rap-
Idly sb could be expected slnco the ac
tual sessions began.
Busings Interests aro greatly Inter
ested In the foreign commerce situation
and the cutting of ocean freight rates
means more than a matter of transpor
tation cost and Is a part of the great
readjustment going on all over the
world. It Involves the competition
which Is one o f the certainties of the.
future between this country and others
In tho International commerce.
Ships of this country built on Inflated
wnr prices will have a hard task to
make their way against the established
good will of Great Brltlan and unques
tionably the lncomo on our tonnage will
be a small percentage as soon aa the
rivalry becomes acute. The sharp de
cline In ocean freights Is favorable to
tho steel trade. Yet furnaces aro going
out of blast to some extent and the steel
Industry Is operating on a basis of BB
to 60 tier cent of capacity. Prices of
pig Iron tend downward, though somo of
the largest producers hold to tno icvci
of around J34 per ton.
The situation with regard to labor,
both skilled and unskilled, Is a restless
one and Is causing moro or less appre
hension. In somo directions confidence
Is expressed that satisfactory conclu
slons will bo reached, still It Is well
known that there Is a fire of discontent
In sonic lines of industrj'.
Tho mercantile trade la not as large
n j-car ago nnd tho situation Is compli
cated somewhat by Immeneo stocks of
merchandise 'and materials In govern
ment warehouses. Collections aro sat
isfactory. Western railroad traffic Is
still considerably lighter than a year
ago. Tho money situation Is easier.
Officials of railroads operating east
ward from Chicago and St. Louis report
a somewhat lighter volumo of business,
although It Is now moro dlversfled than
for a long time past. Business at the
leading Industrial centers remains falr
lv good, but Is governed by uncertain
ties which, tho reconstruction period Is
bringing out. in tlie nouin, Business
Is light and officials of southern roads
report shipping directions on miscel
laneous tonnage and general merchan
dise havo fallen off considerably.

He helped them all to eminence, to
success self-wrought, as he has helped
100,000 other students of Temple
University. The history of this remark
able institution, told by its founder, is
inspiring both to those whose careers
are' yet unformed and those whom Dr.
Conwell furnishes with an example of
the generous use of a fortune won and
the super-success of a life devoted to ,
others in its later years.
DR. CON WELL'S
Own Story of
TEMPLE UNIVERSITY
is told in ten daily installments, each rich with
the experiences of a life unusually varied and
constructive in its relation to others. In the
forceful style that has made his spoken word a
magnet drawing thousands to his pulpit, he tells
of his fight for the democracy of education, a
fight that he is still victoriously waging at the
age of 76. His life and, philosophy are summar
ized in these fascinating pages. None can read
them without absorbing the calm confidence in
self and humanity that has endeared the writer's
name to Philadelphians. These articles will
appear only in the
laientng public fefctjer
