The President’s statement was in terpreted by experts in high confer ence quarters not only as a flat noti fication that the United States is not interested in restoring the old-fash ioned gold standard, which France and her continental allies have been trying to force him to support, but as a scarcely veiled reproof to France Experts expressed the opinon that the American chief executive had in mind France's unbalanced budget and hug?, expenditures for military and naval purposes, as well as uncollect ed domestic taxes, when he said: “When the world works out con certed policies in the majority of na tions to produce balanced budgets and living within their means, then we can properly discuss a better deposition of the world’s gold and silver supply to act as a reserve base for national currencies.” In many conference circles, the President's statement was taken to mean in substance: “we do not give a row of beans about gold at this junc ture. Other nations may stay on gold or abandon it to suit themselves, but we are not lending our support to the maintenance of old-fashioned Euro pean gold standards at this time.” One expert said: “Mr. Roosevelt fortunately is trying to bring the con ference back to the main purpose for which it was called, namely to recon struct the price levels of world trade and to permit trade to flow through natural channels without excessive ob structions.” “it the conference accepts this key note, there is still hope that it will serve its high purpose.
