American Gold Experts
Expect More In 1952
WASHINGTON (W-Oolff experts
here forecast the United States will
take in $300,800,000 more gold in
1 1952. by buying it or accepting it
I in payment of debts, than it will
| ship out.
I That is the rate at which U. S.
[gold supplies are increasing now. 1
and the rate is expected to hold
through* all of 1952.
1 The Salted State* will buy. at
IMS fin dunce, aH the gokMt is of
* sered. It will also accept it at the
same figure in payment of debt!.
It will sell it only to recognised
foreign governments or to author
ized industrial or commercial gold- 1
users in this country, still at the
same rate!
A critical world need for U. S.
dollars with which to buy Amer
ican goods fa given as one reason
this country fa now taking in more ,
gold than it.,fa sending out. It is :
generally acknowledged that many
foreign countries are not produc
ing enough goods to sell for dol- i
Mrs to pay for th’ goods, they buy ■
in the United States. Failing in 1
that method of getting the badly 1
nyeded greenbacks, they sell us 1
their gold. j. *' v
The gold tide switched midway 1
through 1951. In the first half of j
the year, roughly $1,046,000,000 left «
the government stockpile, while j
Insulation serves you go (Ratty ways. It reduces I

only about $116,000,000 came in, a
.net loss of more than $900,000,000
worth of gold. The net outflow be
gan late in 1949.
After the mld-1951 reversal, how
ever. stocks of gold increased again
'/) within approximately $100,000,-
600 of their January 1 level, by the
<9id of the year.
Incoming or outgoing, theife fa
said to ha no need to fear tor' the
U. S. supply. At $22,400,000,000 it
fa altnoat two-thirds of the world
total, and twice as much as the
law requires the government to
keep as backing for U. S. cur
rency in circulation.
If worst came to worst, the Unit
ed States would still have enough
to keep itself afloat through two
yean of selling, authorities calcu
late. And they aay timta are not
at ail likely to get that bad for
this country. >
The big gold problem they see
for the government in 1952 fa how
much aid to give to countries
which hgve been selling a lot of
gold recently—notably Great Brit
ain and France. Is there an end,
they nxK, . u
The foreign aid situation would
be much relieved, they assert, if
more of our gold were owned by
other countries, which would then
not need so many gift dollars.
Pearson
(Can Untied From h|t Two)
or John Kenny of Jersey" City and
democratic Congressmen Ed Hart
and A1 Sietninskl, calling on the
President recently, got the im
pressio nthat he will make no pro
nouncement on his candidacy until
close to convention time in July.
He indicated: 1. That he hasn’t I
made up his mind about running
again; 2. That he is concerned only j
with the “day-to-day” handling of I
world and domestic issues and let
ting the future dictate his political'
moves.
/ “In other words, I am going a
long to the best of my ability doing i
the job the people pay me to do,
the President said.
He was much more specific on j
another matter—keeping former
Jersey City Boss Frank Hague in
the doghouse.
Mayor Kenny charged that. Hague
was conducting an undercover
camjaign to deprive New Jersey of
Federal Housing projects in rev-
Othman

ington representatives of one of
America’s leading makers of tele-,
vision sets, refrigerators, radios and
electric stoves, told me his firm
was contemplating a new kind of >
television program.
The shows, mostly running to
reasonably first-class drama in I
capsule form, will not be changed.
But when it comes to the selling
pitch, it will be silent.
“We figure,” he said, "that this
will stop irritating the customers.
Sound and sight both in an adver
tisement is just too much. It has
lost us sales. Now we’re going to
have sight, plus silence and we
think it’s going to bring us many
friends.”
His trouble was figuring out an
assortment of noiseless sales mes
sages. The fellows in the business
writing them for television, he con
tinued. are lost without the noise
They can’t even think in terms of
quiet. So he said if I could concoct
any acceptable ideas for selling
stoves on video in absolute silence,
he’d pay generouslv.
I told him I’d think hard and
wouldn’t charge a nickel. If this
scheme works out and becomes
general among the TV moguls, we
won’t need those push buttons. For
me, that’s reward enough.

“We .are sorely in need of de-

AW right, Fiddo, let go! Tell the folks I’ll go to MOTOR

Truman promised to give the
matter his "personal attention,”
adding tersely, “I guess some people
don’t know when to quit.”

he had met the President's daugh

Vivian, Truman interposed; “Yes!”
