NOTES OF THE DAY
The extent to which the World Economic Conference can Récomp. lish any of the high purposes pro- posed for it depends upon to-day's meeting of the Bureau. If the gold countries succeed in their effort to restrict the agenda to mutters of trivial importance, the delegates might just as well pack their bags and go home.
