The gold was purchased by the French Stabilization Fund, created a year ago when the franc left the gold standard. The transaction took place under the Anglo- Franco-American pact which seeks to prevent severe fluc- tuations in currency relationships. It was the first time since March, 1936, that the United States had exported any of the metal. Simultaneously, however, the San Francisco chamber of Commerce reported that $10,000,000 worth of gold bars has been landed there from Japan in the'last two days.

The Christrflis-sales campaign to be sponsored this year by the Valley Stream Business Men's as- sociation will be stirted-within ten days, according to plans made last night at a meeting of therexecu- tive committee of the association, held in Vincent's studio, Rockaway avenue. - A Six-Week Drive With indications that this will be the most concerted sales drive ever held in the village, the cam- paign is patterned after a similar event held during the pre-Christ- mas season last year, Vincent Gerbino, president of the associa- tion, announced. During the six weeks before Christmas, partici- pating merchants will issue cou- pons with each sale in their re- spective places of business.
