GOLD RESERVES DWINDLING
“Time is running out,” declared
Senator Ernest Gruening, in com
menting on the nation's dwindling
gold reserve. He pointed out that
the reserves had declined $100 mil
lion as of March 28, 1962, bringing
the reserve to its lowest ebb since
1939.
Gruening made the comments to
the Senate, in urging the passage
of Senate Joint Resolution 44, which
would provide a subsidy for newly
mined gold, while maintaining the
present gold price at $35 per ounce.
“How long will this nation con
tinue to ignore the clear and pres
ent danger which exists in our de
clining gold reserves,” asked the
Senator. “How long will we con
tinue to decline to take the very
practical steps needed to replenish
our gold reserves by recognizing
that gold miners cannot afford to
mine gold with machinery pur
chased at 1962 prices while receiv
ing 1934 prices for gold?”
“I have before stated on this floor
that gold is a weapon,” declared the
Senator, “and that the time has
come to arm. I restate that call to
arms today in the hope that it will
be heeded and action will be taken
before it is too late.”

William Julien. now 80. was born
in Castella, Italy on February 9.
1883. In the spring of 1908. Julien
left Seattle on the ship. The Presi
dent. for Nome, Alaska.
In Nome he went to work for the
Montgomery Company digging
water ditches near the Anvil Moun
tains to sell water for the miners.
In 1912, William left Nome for Se
attle. where he worked at the New
Providence Hospital.
Then in the spring of 1913 he left
Seattle aboard Captain O'Brien's
Alameda for Valdez, where he
WILLIAM JULIEN
worked as a waiter in Louie's Cafe.
Dnce during the spring, he and
another miner started hiking to
wards Fairbanks, but had to return
to Valdez because the canyon was
'full of water.
Two days later, the two men
started up the All-American Trail,
taking dangerous chances crossing
soft ice spots in the trail. Just be
fore they reached the Divide, they
neared an abandoned Army tele
graph station where they slept on
the roof, because two feet of water
occupied the rooms. Julien thought
he'd take another chance and go
in one of the rooms.
Found Skis
He waded in, and to his surprise,
found a pair of Army skis. While
Julien whizzed down the side of
the Divide, his partner slowly hikea
down.
His partner made it safely to the
bottom, but Julien's back met with
a leaning tree causing his skis to
split. When Julien woke from the
night's sleep under the tali spruce
trees, he found his partner gone.
Julien found his friend, along
with ‘‘Jackson.” the Swedish wres
tler. near Cann's Roadhouse. He
and his partner crossed the Tanana
River in a small boat, the ferry
operated by a man of Delta Tele
graph Station.
He met men on horseback who
were heading for the Shusana Stam
pede. After a few days of hiking,
he arrived in Fairbanks where he
stayed at the Cosmopolitan Hotel.
On October 9. 1913. he went to
the Bonnifiold area to dig more
water ditches. Between 1915 and
1941 he rode his 9-dog team into
the Kantishna area to his own claim
and made return trips to Fairbanks
for supplies.
