NEW YORK. Aug. 12.—Gold, tons
of it. coming here on every large pas-
mnger liner that plies the Atlantic. is
handled by seamen and longshoremen
-nonchalently as if it were scrap iron
On such ships as the Olympic arrive
millions of dollars worth of the preci—
'nhl metal—shipments such as would
have swamped an old galleon sailing
the Spanish main. llut the heaVY.
steel bound boxes of ingote or coin
dored away in the holds of the giant
llners arouse among passengers and
crew far less interest than the pres-
Qco of an internationally known act-
!“ or prize-winning Pomeranian.
It was recently announced that the
- U. S. Subtreasury vaults here already
field 81. 500 000 000 in gold. one- fifth
fit the world' s entire supply.
Gold is classified as freight and a
«stain rate per ton is paid for trans-
porting it. although due to its value
apecia‘l consideration is given to its
safety. On each of these big ships is
a vault——known in ship language as
the strong room. It 13 a big box or
chamber, heavily lined with armor
plate steel located in one of the lower
holds in such aposltlon that it can be
approached from but one direction, by
a passage opening from but one door

There is no space around the strong
room for a would-be thief to work
Vith a. drill. and indeed. if he should
get in he would probably find himself
a prisoner.

The Kemalist government. with the,
aid of its army. is determined to SOIVG‘
the Near Eastern problems itself: a
fact to which the Allied western pow-
ers are said to be blind.
This is the chief impression which
the Associated Press correspondent
received after a trip of hundreds of
miles by sea and land from eflete, be-
fuddled Constantinople to the clear
atmosphere of this city. situated on a
wide plateau. where the Nationalists
have pitched their political tents.
The stranger. putting his foot on the
soil of Nationalist Anatolia, feels a
new air. It is 'not a privilege extend-
ed to all and sundry: but once good
faith has been established. the doors
of primitive hospitality are opened
wide. and the stranger may do what
he will or go where he pleases.
Re-visiting the interior after two
years. when the Nationalist govern-
ment had just received its baptism b?
the declaration of rights of the Turk-
ish people at Sivas, the correspondent
found- the same gray. beflowered.

new purpose.
