His arts and crafts, almost destroyed by centuries of contact with an alien civilization, will be revived if the Exposition of Indian Tribal Arts is successful in its plans and purposes. This new organization of white scientists, artists and patrons of the arts is now preparing a representative exposition of the arts ;nd crafts of 30 Indian tribes n.iw living in the United States, who are still doing woik of intrinsic beauty. It w ill open in the Gran I Central Art Galleries of N< w York in December, and then lour the leading cities of the country. The finest examples available in museum and private collections. of textiles, pottery, jewel: y and beadwork w ill be sli :wn. The exposition will include th* watercolor paintings which (ho Kiowas. Hopis and Pueblo Indians have recently started making, which created quite a sensation when first exhibited in Europe some years ago. John Sloan, the painter, is president of the organization and the vice-presidents are Major General Hugh L. Scott. Ambassador Charles G. Dawes, and Walter L. Clark. The chairman of the executive committee is Miss Amelia Elizabeth White.

The strange mob psychology that led the men to burn or wreck the things dearest to them, their food, their clothes and their amusement places, vyas one of the problems most puzzling to the legislators. All members of the committee arrived by last midnight. As they entered the prison they heard infrequent shouts of "parole board, parole board." which some of the convicts kept up for hours even after they surrendered in the face of Warden Henry C. Hill's determination and the presence of the troops. i One of the first things which the legislators learned was that the convicts had not rioted against the prison officials or the state parole board, but against the parole system under which men are sentenced in Illinois for indeterminate periods and released when the boaid is convinced they should be. With the exception of sliotßing protests against this system, the prisons were orderly when the committeemen entered. Frequent efforts were made yesterday by mon in both prisons to start trouble. Nothing serious developed. Several fires were start ed in cells. Tb'= was stopped cuickly after Wa: dc-u Hill, a stern, gray heired man of 52, ordered that if convicts tired their mattresses

they must stay in with the flr<> and smoke. Hill explained that a man could ’ burn up his mattress and not be I injured, but said lie would hnve i "to sleep in the ashes." A systematic search of all cells I | was made by guards iftid the: | troops. Many Improvised weapons , were found. The radios which had been in ' > stalled to keep convicts in touch with the outside work! wore removed last night. All lettets and ma cazines were taken from the men. I Roger F. I Jtlle, Chairman of the| ' committee, said Warden Hill would! ’ be lhe first witness called al the 1 Inquiry, the principal purpose of ■ which Is to determine the exact ' cause of the riots.

FRENCH BANKER i EXPLAINS BIG GOLD RESERVE Stability of Franc Offered Greater Security To Investors By Ralph Heinzen, UP. Staff Corn spondent. Faris, Mar. 20.- In * lrKt formal declaration concerning the gold policy of the Bank of France, M. Clement Moret, gove nor of th • institution, declared that the bank has never sought to attract gold. Hor would it put any harriers in the way of gold leaving its vaults lor foreign banks as a natural result of economic conditions. With the accumulation of mon than 55,000.000,000 francs in gold. F ance has come into the position of second greatest money lender of the world and M. Moret feels that France will soon have to play the role of banker and resume her pre-war policy of exporting capital to needy nations. The gold rush towards France, M. Moret believes, is due largely to the feeling of security France iffords world investors. The st i--1 ility of th“ franc offered greater security for gold storage in France than in other countries harder hit by the world economic crisis. Encouraged Exportation “Far from seeking to attract gold to itself, or even to keep it in its vaults, the bank has tried by twice lowering its discount rate, either to slow down the rhythm of gold entries, or to encourage its exportation." M. Mo-et said. • The attrition for floating capita! which France exercised during 1930 was really the consequence, above all. of the decline in money rates in the foreign markets apd of the guarantees behind the French ciprency. "The development of the universal economic crisis during 1930 considerably reduced the needs for credit in foreign cent® s. In New York and London, the yield offered for short te ui investments temained at exi-epticually low levels throughout the whole year. The French banks which last year invested in these great markets, a portion of their available funds, were unable to renew their loans on conditions as remunerative as in the past."

Moret said that in the course of the last few years a general upward movement carried the majority of issues of variable vield
