ports Heavy Fall In Price Oi Gold Dur- ing Last 24 Hours.
LONDON, Mar. 3.-(A.P.)-Wal-
ter Runciman, President of the Board of Trade, disclosed tonight that he was not wholly satisfied with todays dramatic rise in sterl- ing. .
“There has been a heavy fall in
the price of gold during the last 24 hours," he said at a banquet of the Incorporated Association of Retail Distributors.
"I hope it won't fall too rapidly.
for these very rapid movements are to our detriment. If there are to be any movements I would rather they were slow."
Mr. Runciman expressed utmost
confidence. however, in the funda- mentals of the British financial po- sition. Those two great countries, (the United States and France) have succeeded in getting great stores of gold," he said, “are now having to pay the penalty of thelr'exclusive- ness and we are able to show them we can carry on without the gold basis."
Sterling rose ovemight from $3.53
on New York to $3.63,
Sterling closed at $3.71 in New
York. a rise of 18 cents during the day.
