Busk of Gold from
U. S. Not Worrying
Treasury Officials
WASHINGTON, June 2t Treasury de
partment offlcals show only a passing in
terest in tho , phenomenal exportation of
gold which Is taking place through New
York. Since January 1, the amount of
gold exported has been about $79,000,000.
Tho gold reserve supply at the New York
subtreasury was practically exhausted
and over $t0,000,000 worth of gold bars
and coin was sent to New York last week
from other subtreasurles.
''What difference does i -make If
Europe draws on us for 1100,000,000 of
gold, or $200,000,000 worth?" John Burke,
treasurer of the United States, remarked
today when asked about the movement
toward Europe. "The United States has
plenty of gold. We are not like countries
which have only a limited amount We
hare more than a billion dollars worth of
gold in reserve. A slight balance of
trade against us can easily start the gold
moving to Europe and I understand
that two railway corporations are about
to retire some bond Issues in Europe
which must be met with gold."
Of the shipments of gold received In
New York last week from other sub-
treasuries, Denver supplied about $25,'
(00,000 and San Francisco also contributed
a large consignment '
George E. Roberts, director of the mint,
believes, the new currency law will check
the flow of gold to Europe.
