Currency Based On Gold to Take Place of Marks By Cable to The Star and New Yok Tribune. ‘Oopyright, 1923. BERLIN, November 3.—The gov- ernment today decided to with- draw the paper mark from circu- latlon and substitute the new stable currency. All paper marks are to be called In at a definite rate and by a definite date. Neither date nor rate has been de- termined yet, although November 10 1s mentioned as the probable time. This {s the day when the new “Rentenmarks” are scheduled to be_issued. The coilapse of the paper mark during the last few days has finally convinced the government of the futility of attempting to support it any longer. Wi'h the mark sell- ing here at 1,000.000,060 ‘o the dol- lar and registering a 100 per cent decline every twenty-four hours, its valie is now purely imaginary. CITY HEADS OPPOSE TRAFFIC CODE CHANGE (Continued from First Page.) ground it would be better policy to, wait until he is called on the stand. Maj. Sullivan Silent. Maj. Dantel Sullivan, superintend- ent of police, also refrained last night from talking on the subject of traffic or what the Senate committee might do to improve conditions. It 1s known, however, that high offi- he the speaker |clals of the police department are in at a luncheon of campaign workers |accord with Mr. Hart In the belief that a recommendation for a larger honorary presilent of the |aPpropriation for the employment of traffic officers would be a beneficlal move for the investigating committee to make. The Senate committee, it was stated yesterday, will turn its attention first to the so-called “‘death”,posts erected on 14th street to protect persons waliting for street cars. The District Commissioners say they | erected the post ak an experiment. A number of automobiles have crashed into the post at night and the Com- missioners are now considering their removal, awaiting, in the meantime, a report from their trafic committee. Chairman Hart of that committee declared last night he is in favor of abolishing the posts and that he ex- to take such action Thursday. The assistant corporation counsel {said he favored a so-called boulevard tomor- | SYStem, under which trafiic would be permitted to move swiftly along cer- tain wide arteries. With such a sys- tem. however, he said vehicles should be required to come to a stop before crossing a boulevard. Parking Big Problem. The question of regulating parking in the congested section iz perhaps the most puzzling traffic problem now before the Commissioners, and it fore the Senate committee. - Commissioner Oyster has expres-ed himself in the past in favor of an impounding law, which woull permit the police to lock or. remove ma- chines found overstaying the park- The Commissioner, like- wise, s a strong advocate of a larger police force If Mr. Oyster should be asked to appear before the senators in his capacity as Commiseioner in charge of trafiic he, in all probability, will argue for an Increasc in the traffio squad. The Commi sfoners about a year ago created the committee of which Hart is now the head and directed it to go thoroughly through the traflic regulations with a view to improving them. Code Recently Changed. 2 The outstanding result of that in- quiry was the enactment of a reck- less driving statute. A number of other changes were made In the code, but, in the main. the regulations were left unchanged. 3 The committee at that time sought the co-operation of bureau of stand- ards officials in drafting a model headlight law for the District. No definite action was taken on that sub- ject, however. Then came the Shrine convention and with it, the one-way streets. Commissioner Oyster was 8o impressed by the resuits obtained with one-way, thoroughfares during that week of unprecedented conges- uon that he had the Commissioners retain a number of them. Since that time there has been some opposition to the one-way rule on cer- tain downtown arteries, but Commis- sloner Oyster felt that the majority favored them and he has stood pat on the one-way regulation: Another imporiant step toward re- ducing accidents was taken more than a year ago when the Washing. ton Safety Councll was organized. This council has conducted an un- ceasing campaign of education to make both motorists and pedestrians more careful in using the streets. To this end white lines have been painted at all downtown crossings and posters are constantly being dis- played at busy points, reminding the driver and walker alike of the price of recklessness.

The American’ Red Cross budget for humanitarian activities in 1924 will be $12.000.000, the soclety an- nounce@ yesterday. The national and international program “for advancing the welfare of peaples and communi- ties” was set at $5.543,077.81, the re- mainder being allotted to the 3,000 lo- cal chapters. Completion of several large forelgn | operations permitted a reduction of more than $4,000,000/from the last budget, the statement said, operations in Asia Minor being estimated to have cost $2,600,000 and rellef work in Rus- sia sbout $1,840.000. For the first time in five years the foreign operations budget Is placed below $1,000,000. For assistance to veterans of the world war, the new budget allots $2.065,000." an increase of $120.000 over the current year. The soclety | estimated, however, that the expen- diture for this work by headquar- ters and the local chapters would average $500,000 a month. Close Work in Greece, Liquidation of forelgn committ- ments is expected to require $100,000 in 1924, in addition to the $394.- 303.91 allotted to close the work in Greece; $180,000 for support of the league of Red Cross socleties and $10.524.20 to aid nurses’ training schools in Europe. For service and assistance to the numbering 3,000 in the United States alone, the budget car- rles $1,282524.20. This Is $50,000 above last years expenditures. Other outstanding items of the do- mestic program show $80,000 for assistance to co-operatifig organiza- tlons, Including child health demon- stratfons; $93,100 for Junfor Red: Cross projects and service, $309,020 Army and Navy, $150,000 for emer- gencles In chapter work. $100,000 for unforeseen contingencies and $222,- 014.50 for supervision of service ac- tivitles and general management.

The home has received $19,637.94¢ on the payment. This fact was revealed last night by Mrs. Archibald Hopkins, president of the home, who took the occasion to thafik the people of the District for thelr generous contribution of $1,776, using payment coupons printed In The Star. 3 96,205 Reported in Hand. Pledges to the amount of $6,205 are in hand. Mrs Hopkins declared that she feels confident there must be 6.000 Deople in Washington. who are grate- ful for their health, and will be will- ing to show it in a practical manner by sending a dollar aplece to the Home for Incurables, to make up the nearly $6,000 needed.

Crewe maintained. however, that the case with Washington was dif- ferent. This, he sald. is the first time that the United States has shown an in- clination to contribute to a Euro- pean settlement, and all the powers were agreed that American co-opera- tion was necessary to the reconstruc- tion of Europe. The French restric- tion, however, Lord Crewe warned, could result In withdrawal of the original American acceptance In prllnclpla of collaboration with the allies. i’remier Poincare replied that the most Important things were clarity and loyaity, and that he did not de- sire to engage the United States on a basis of misunderstanding. The premier then expla ned to Lord Crewe the instructions to Ambassador Ju gerand, adding that he believed these would _completely enlighten the United States government. Meanwhile he requested Britain to reserve judgment in the matter until a reply from Washington Is received at Paris. U, 8. POLICY UNCERTAIN. Fate of Economic Parley Is Held Doubtful. The latest move to enlist American ald in solving the reparations puzzle, which began so auspiclously, now has come to a stage where even those who sponsored it most stanchly are extremely uncertain of the outcome. Like every other recent effort to bring American Influence to bear to heal the war wounds of Europe, the new plan for an expert committee of inquiry has become entangled in the delicately adjusted network of rela- tions! Ips ‘between London and Paris, and in such a manner that the Amer- fcan government cannot at the mo- ment take any step to extricate I ‘There still Is hope that in the en a workable plan will emerge from the almost hourly exchanges that ap- pear to be passing between the Bri ish and French capitals, and about which American officials have but a sketchy and inconclusive knowledge. | Such advices as reached the State De- partment yesterday did nothing to encourage confidence in a outcome, however, and news patches ‘from abroad likewise were accepted as adding little to what had gone before. Officials Helpless. In the circumstances, officials re- peated that they were helpless to do more than look on from a distance and await the result. The views of ithe United States are well known to ! both London and Paris, and if they are disregarded in the diplomatic formula finally worked out, President Coolidge and his advisers beileve that none of the blame for fallurs of the plan can rest on Washington.

Washington and Georgetown Gas Light Companies by the public utili- ties commission in 1916 is from $2,- 600,000 to $3,000,000 below what it should have been, in the opinion of the companids. This is one of the points brought out by Attorfieys Miror and Hoover, for the compgnies, in the brief which they filed with the commission a few days ago against gas rate reductions. They contend that the decision of the Court of Appeals in the Potomac Electric Power case applles with equal force to the other public serv- ice corporations. ‘That decision was that the commission did not make; proper allowance for the increase in the value of the power company .prop- erty between 1914 and 1916, he companies contend . that the commission should" aifow a larger amount for malnfenance and general amortization, at present, 9, cents per 1,000 cublc feet of gas xoid. The com- panies say this allowance should be 12_cents.

TURF WORLD STUNNED AS IN MEMORIAM WINS FROM ZEV AND MY OWN (Continued from First Page.) shortly ‘after 3:30 ‘p.m. the sky was cold and overcast, and a_drizzling rain which started three hours be- fore suddenly stopped, leaving the track lightning fast. The horses were at the post a little more than a minute when William Hamlilton, the starter, sprang the bar- rier. In Memoriam shot into the lead for ‘the first few strides, with Zev, Rialto and My Own right at his flanks. The flying horses had not gone far before the colors worn by Earl Sande. riding Zev, flashed Into the lead. Zev was fully clear at the half and under the skillful handling of Sande clung to the lead until the mile and a half was reached. In Memoriam, trailing third with Zev leading by three lengths and My Own running second. started to close the gap as the fiying band flashed past the mile-and-a-half post and turned into the stretch. Coming from behind, Jockey Garner snatched the lead as the field started for the wire, jerking his charge into the com- manding position and sending him to the front with all the speed he could muster. Garner, laying his head close to In Memoriam's neck, kept his horse hug- ging the rail and steadily increased the gap between the fast-fading Zev, crossing the wire with a lead of six lengths. My Own, outraced and tiring, strug- gled into’ third place, eight lengths back of Zev. The fractional time of the race shows that Zev flashed past the first quarter In 24 2-5, the half in 491-5, the three-quarters in 1.143-5, the mile in 141, the mile and a quarter | in 208 1-5, and the mile and a half in 2.34 4-5, where he lost the lead. Sande Praises Winaer. Jockey Sande, Who rode Zev to vic- tory in the Kentucky Derby and in; the international race two weeks ago, against Papyrus and also has been astride My Own in six races, declared that In his opinion In Memoriam is the greatest three-year-old in the country. “1 reachd for my whip and went after Zev in the stretch, but he seemed to falter. In Memorlam went by me like we were tied. 1 have n alibis to offer. The best horse won. In Memoriam, known as a three- year-old capable of running any dis- tance, has been in speclal training for today’s race since he finished sec- ond to the imported five-year-old Chacolet in the $50,000 Kentucky Spe- cla) three weeks ago. The turf ex- perts said he possibly could have won that race if Jockey Barrett had mot been so busy watching two other contenders inside him on the rall that he could not see Chacolet speed- ing along outs Since ihat race Tratner Gilmore, acknowledged as an expert in the eclence of conditioning race horses, has been nursing In Memorium along for today's race. In Memorium was regarded as a likely winner of the Kentucky Derby last spring, but he finished training slightly off edge and did not meke a very favorable show- ing. His chief victory this year was the capture of the °$10,000 Illinois Derby in_Chicago, but he has won several other races and won them im- ively. T The reault of the race, in the opin- fon of the turf experts, proved noth- ing except that meither Zev nor My Own is invincible, and that In Me- morium Is a fast and game colt. The experts, however, regard that the| controversy that has raged around the merits of Zev and My Own ever since Zey was named to race Papy- rus was at least partly settled, when Zev finished elght lengths in front of Admiral Grayson’s colt. Grayson Disappointed. Admiral Grayson said: “I still have faith in My Own, but I have no ex- cuses_to offer for his showing today. The better horse won. My Own ls still & great race horse and will con- tinue to improve. I still want s chance to_meet Zev In ch race.’ oMr, Sinclair, as well as Admiral Grayson, were among the firat to reach Carl Wiedemann, owner of In Memoriam, and offer him congratula- ions on his victory. ¥ “A horse race is a horse race with me, but I still think Zey is the great. est horse in the world,” sald Mr. Sin- clair. “If that challenge from France to meet their champion, Epinard, is still open, I may consider i Perhaps the most disappointed mem- ber of Mr. Sinclair's party was Col. W. J. Zeverly, an Oklahoma oil operator, after whom Zev had been named. There was just a trace of tears in his eyes when he saw the defeat of Zev.
