GOLD BLOC BUREAU

Brussels, Belgium, Oct. 19--Members of the European gold standard bloc, led by France and Belgium, today decided to establish in Brussels a "bureau of the gold bloc countries" to carry on the fight against raids on their currencies.

The session was private, but it was understood the delegates devoted most of the discussion to defensive measures against moves which might force any or all of them off the gold standard.
