Show WEEKLY V f Economic Highlights - ' -- r- Happing 'that affect the dinner pails, dividend checks and tax bills of every individual. National and international problems inseparable from local Strangely there a enough, no economic subject the average citizen knows less about than money. He uses it daily, but the tokens with which he barters, arent really money at all. Their only value value lies in the credit of the government issuing them, Real money fa. seldom seer it is gold and is jealously hoarded by treasuries. As a result, , the average citizen was pretty well puzzled when the U. S. Government announced that -- it had started a world gold buying campaign in an effort to rase commodity prices. He couldnt see the connection. As a matter of fact, the connection is simnle enough if nhnply explained its verv much like an auction. The more people you get to bid for an object, the mure valuable it becomes. Thats true of, gold. When the United .States went into the market there wna another important bidder for the yellow metal, and jts price rose accordingly. At the same time, the value of .the dollar, which has a definite gold backing, declined, and commodity prices went up. Briefly described, the dollar has been cheapened, and it is worth less wheat, clothing or gasoline than R was a while ago. At the moment, the worlds free gold supply, if melted down, would amount to a tenfoot cube, worth Since 1492, about 1400,000,000. Columbus discovered the whe new world, all the gold mined would amount to only a cube and over half of that has vanished, either through being sunk In ships, made into jewelry, 40-fo- ot or boarded. Most important foe of the United States gold policy is the British Empire. London is the worlds largest gold market, and any buying campaign will naturally center there. Dollars aer exchanged for pounds, in order to buy in the English market, thus increasing the international supply of American currency and increasing the demand for English currency. A more expensive pound must follow Britains discouraging foreign trade. Matters are at a deadlock. Its going to be a monetary battle of the giants, with th etwo greatest financial powers of the world opposed. -- oOo- of Criticism administration policies, which was practically non existent a few months ago, has been gradually appearing, becoming, more widespread. There is a definite feeling of nervousness, mostly on the part of large-scal- e business men. Their theme song is "Individualism, Where art Thou? and the villain in the place is the fuel that the government is steadily assuming more stringent control over all phases of business, - showing no signs that it will relax this policy. These business men cheered the recovery plan recently presented s by Gerard Swope, General president. able, Briefly stated, the Swope Blan pro poses the setting up of an organization very similar to the NR A with this essential difference control would be in the hands of. boards of business men instead of government officials.
