Washington. April 20. <jp)—
The United States swung away
from the gold standard Wednes
day as Roosevelt is prepared to
ask Congress tomorrow for new
power to effect the controlled in
flation by the Withdrawal of gold

a
PLACES EMBARGO ON GOLD
- WASHINGTON. April 20, (A*)—
A three point measure giving the
President complete authority to
start the United States, which ia
now off the gold standard by a
gold embargo, established by Pres
ident RooeevePt, on a policy of
controlled inflation, was whipped
into shape with the executives ap
proval.
Legislation was outlined in a
general form by Senator Thomas,
of Oklahoma. The sponsor will
probably introduce it today &b an
amendment to the administrations
farm bill now pending in the Sen
ate, thus insuring quick action.
The Thomas bill would give the
President power to undertake by
any one of the following methods:
The issuance of new currency; the
acceptance of silver in payment, of
war debts, and the decrease in the
gold' content of the dollar by in
ternational agreement or other
wise.
Armed with these powers, the
President is confident of carrying
on within reasonable limits the in
flationary process begun yesterday.
Taking the country off the gold
standard caused the quettkm to be
asked as to haW ioon and on what
terms this country might again
adhere to the international gold
standard.
Qnlet talk will be held between
the President and iMactDonald of
Gieat Britain and Harriot of
France in the ndxt few days.
BRITISH ARB ANXIOUS
AJTD PUZZLED
UNDATED, April 2<j, (£»)—Puz
zled and coupled with extreme
anxiety, was the British reaction
to the" American imposition of a
gold embargo and statements from
Washington that America was off
the gold standard. The value of
a dollar took a heavy fall aa the
direct result. Government quart
ers were beset with uncertainty aa
to what the American move meant.
Economists were equally bewilder
ed.
German financial circles regard
the natural devaluation of tha
America a dollar unlikely, inas
much as jhe United States balance
is active In all fields and the Unit
ed States is constantly receiving
payments from trade. Belief is
expressed that the dollar cannot
be touched in exchange in the long
run.

DEPARTMENT ruling
The SCoate has ruled that the
Treasury and FdflEofAce branches
mast get along with about one
hundred and sixty-Ave million dol
lars less pet year. The measure
was made necessary by the aus
terity of the tithe, yet it was ap
plied with fegret to the postofflee
department, an orgfaniealflon that
operates with a notorious deflcK.
Theoretically, the thing to do was
to force the postofflee people to
carry on with lees expense. Prac
tically speaking, that will not be
so easy. If the postofflee machin
ery were busy with nothing bht
the transport of stamped and paid
for mall, the problem would be
simple. It happens, however, that
the mail wagon is a'vehicle into
which every other department of
the Federal Government is free to
drop a burdensome load, to be
carried dead-head. Under the pos
tal savings system, the postmaster
most conduct a savings batik. Un
der the .money order system, be
has to issue and Keep track of
commercial paper that Is payable
all over the country, and welcom
ed at face value anywhere. If a
Civil Service board Is lacking, the
postmaster will attend to the mat
ter. If a criminal In the sight of
the Federal law IS sought, his pic
ture Is likely to be found on the
bulletin board of the postofflee. In
short, the postofflee department Is
everybody’s friend and servant.
No one hae discovered how so use
ful a horse can subsist on a hay
ration, and stUl be expected to do
a lot of heavy hauling for a multi
tude of masters.
