(Adjourn ment of the world economic confer ence until the question of stabilisa tion of currencies can be settled was advocated today in the conference headquarters lobby by the European gold bloc. It was understood the French were fostering this program on the ground that no progress was possible on oth er lines until some form of stabiliza tion had been achieved. The adjournment talk was entirely unofficial but It was so persistent and far-reaching that It was being privately discussed by the heads of the important delegations. In the gold bloc group, headed by Prance, a month to six weeks was mentioned as the probable length of the adjournment. France and her adherents asserted that everything rests with Washing ton and that there is no use trying to continue the conference until Pres ident Roosevelt Issues final instruc tions to the American delegates. This development came just as the conference commutes adjourned for the day until eleven o'clock tomor row morning.
