Washington. October 23. (JP)—
President Roosevelt, Sunday night,
announced that the creation of a
government market for gold was ,
easing the gold embargo. In tell, i
ing the nation of his recovery j
policies, he firmly asserted that
"we are on our way.”
Standing firmly by his recovery .
program, the. President rapped
the rhislers of the .VRA. He as
sured the increase in agricultural j
.prices with the words: “If we ■
cannot do it one way. we will do ■
it another way." He promised j
the maintenance of government
credit and a “sound currency.”
He announced that the dollar
would be revalued after the res
toration of the price level.
Roosevelt put in operation a
government marke* for newly
mined gold under the Reconstruc
t;..3 Finance Corporation. "When
ev, r necessary to the .3u I iu view,
wt shall bu.v or sell gold in the
world market, he said. This Is
a policy not in expedient and It
is not to be used merely tempor
arily to offset a temparary fall In
prices. We will thus continue to
move toward a managed currency.
“My aim in making these steps
is to establish and maintain a
continuous control of government
credit, to be maintained toy sound
currency accompanied by a rise
In American commodity prices.”
The President authorized the
Reconstruction Finance Corpora
tion to buy gold mined In the
United States "at prices to be de
termined from time to time after
consultations with the Secretary
of the Treasury.”
“We are not out of our trou
bles and wont be tomorrow, but
we are headed in the right direc
tion,” he said. He made no ref
jorence to the situation in the
| farm area, but did say that while
j the farm prices have gone up,
he is not satisfied with the riae,
but would take means to continue
the increase of prices for farm
commodities.
