A—10 MILLS DISPUTES MORGENTHAUDATA ‘ccuses Secretary of Gold Talk Half-Truths—Says Upturn Ignored. ' the Associated Press. NEW YORK, May 15.—The asser- t'on that the abandonment of the - old standard by the United States in april, 1933, was “unnecessary and dis- ‘strous” was made in a statement by L. Mi former Secretary of the Treasury, in tary Morgenthau. Contrary to Morgenthau's as- sertion that gold left the United ¢ States “in alarm- ing amounts” in 1932, Mills said ¢ the country's monetary gold stock increased rather than de- creased. | L. Mills “During all of | the Summer and | arly Fall of 1932 he said, “trade. usiness, prices and employment all tirned upward. In other words, the fight for the dollar and returning con- dience had done the trick. “Why did Mr. Morgenthau, in what urports to be a recital of facts, fail ) tell the American people of the reat inflow of gold during the latter art of 1932, of the actual increase 7 monetary gold stocks during that alendar year and of the sharp up- urn 1in business during the Summer { 19322 Because these ts com- “letely destroy his case. * * * “Whether it was wise and neces- ary to abandon the gold standard n April. 1933, is & matter as to which 1en differ. I hold that it was un- 1ecessary and disastrous and that we 1ave not begun to pay the full con- | sequences of the step taken at that | ‘ime. Then and there it resulted in ~ breach of faith by the United States Government." NAZI STORM TROOPER | FREED BY FRANCE 1 srr Haslingen Tells Metz Magis- trate He Crossed Frontier After Beer Excess. A= the Associated Press. METZ, France, May 15.—Herr Haslingen, the Nazi Storm Troop ficer who fell into the tolls of French intelligence officers after crossing the frontier Saturday, was released today | The storm trooper, who explained his presence in French territory by -aying he had consumed “numerous glasses of beer,” hired a taxicab and returned to the fatherland at once. Before he left he apologized to an investigating magistrate and said the | “mistake” which cost him three days| in a French jail “won’t happen again.” French military authorities indicated | the border patrol would be strengthen- ed to prevent further occurrences of the sort, which have been alarming frontier residents.
