America's huge gold reserve crossed tlie $11,000,000, 000 mark for the first time in his tory. Bullion holdings for Oct. 13 the day the new tri-power gold ex change agreement went into effect were reported by the treasury at $11, 001,012, C74. or about $15,000, 00 0 above the previous day. The in crease came as a surprise to many fiscal authorities who had expected the gold pact to start a movement of bullion to France and England. The report, however, showed that gold was still flowing strongly to ward the United States, continuing a trend of many months. Treasury of ficials declined to say whether the $15,000,000 increase was the result of gold purchases from France and England under the new accord, or of receipts from other nations not par ties to the agreement. CHURCHES LOSING CONVERTS Kansas City.

He blamed inadequate evangelism for the loss, calling it "the greatest tragedy in the life of the church." i i .
