company to buy and sell gold in
its natural state on an open mar
ket, offering a minimum of $51
an ounce, which is far above the
government price of $35.
It is generally assumed, even
in some gold mining circles, that
all gold must be sold to the gov
ernment for the pegged price, but
Cleveland says there are no re
strictions on the sale of gold in its
natural state.
He backs up this statement with
heating or by chemical of elec- j
a letter from the director of the
U.S. Mint, who wrote:
“Gold in its natural state may
be sold domestically. The depart
ment (treasury- does not regulate
the price of gold in transactions
for private account.”
The letter defines natural gold
as that which “has been recovered
from natural sources and which
has not been melted, smelted or
refined or otherwise treated by
trical process.”
Processed gold may be sold to
the governmant only.
Cleveland’s current asking price
for natural gold is $51 per ounce.
The metal will go to the highest
bidder, he stated.

les to discuss the foreign situation
in general and the Berlin crisis
in detail.
Dewey made no prior announce
ment of Eisenhower’s conference.
“Ike” and Mrs. Eisenhower
motored from New York City this
morning. They had lunch with
the governor and Mrs. Dewey and
were to return late today.
It was understood that Dewey
sought Eisenhowe’s views particu
larly on the Central European
situation.
Eisenhower, prior to the recent
National Political Convention, had
been discussed as a possible can
didate by both Republicans and
Democrats. He made clear, how-'
ever, that he would not accept
either.
terprise is that of finding suffi
cient natural gold to make even a
| dent in the demand. His orders,
.several of which were for large
monthly shipments, would sell out
a full year’s natural gold produc
tion in the U.S.
Just why the demand for natu
ral gold is so great is somewhat
obscure, the article stated, and
concluded by saying that some
1 observers believe it is wanted as
: a hedge against inflation and fur
| ther devaluation of the dollar.
