New production of gold in recent| years has been at the highest level on | record, exceeding 25,000,000 ounces anâ€"| nually. The value of Canada‘s annual’ production alone has jumped to $100,-!! 000,000. To some extent, however, this| large preduction has been offset by increased hoarding in many countries. In its last annual report the Bank for| Internatizonal â€" Settlements estimated that "fresh hoardings of gold in the year 1933 alone amounted to about 3.â€"| 00,000,000 Swiss francs," which was a| larger sum than the value of the new gold produced that year. The bank | interpreted this as something "far from reflectiyg a diminishing belief in gold as a standard of value, or as an , instrument of international payments,| or as a suitable mofietary medium."

"No 15 vein system has been develâ€" oped on four levels.

Provincial} Constable R. \. Stromberg was called from Cobalt in the early hours of Wedâ€"‘ nesday morning when Robert McAnaul, a man of some 27 years of age and single, was reported as acting in desâ€" perate fashion at his home in North Cobalt. The report was that with a large knife he was chasing members ol | the family with fierce threats thal he| would kill them. Fortunately, he no actual damage before the provinâ€"} cial officer arrived on the scene in answer to a hurried telephone call from the family. Constable Stromberg had considerable difficulty in getting th;‘i knife away from McAnaul but he, eventually succeeded in doing this. 'I‘h.ng Officer however, was so intent on getâ€" ting the knife that the prisoner m'.m-!, aged to slip away from him for moment, probably while the officer was trying to put the knife in a safe place. Constable Stromberg at once took afâ€" ter the excited man who fled from the house. The chase covered most of the village of North Cobalt. Constable: Stromberg showed unexpected speed m| chasng the excited young man and eventualW ran him to earth just as hu‘ was trying to drive through a doorway into the home of some people who were bady frightened at his arrival and acâ€" tions.

He was placed in safe--kezf:ping1 and will be examined and kept under observation to assure his own safety and that of cthers. ‘ Exciting Chase After North Cobalt Resldents Five Small Brooms for the Five Small Dionnes The report of the survey, when pubâ€"| lished, will describe the various adult education is now Jaking, the] numbers of men and weimen how the various projects are financed, and other interesting particulars.
