Not Halt Flow of Gold to United States
(By The Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, D.C.. June 9—Representative Fish
said that the action placing $34.70 per ounce in London
on gold, would not slacken the flow of the metal to the
United States and that as "long as we pay $35.00 per
ounce, gold will continue to be dumped on us.’
The New Yorker said: “Already we have paid out
apiproximately five billion for gold which has netted
foreign countries a profit of more than two billion. Our
gold buying policy is the greatest financial fiasco in the
nations history”.
Senator Thomas said he planned to ask Congress to
authorize the issuance of currency against the “steriliz
ed” product, which means nearly a billion of this gold
bought abroad and withheld by the Treasury, would be
turned into natural channels of trade. _
