WORLD CONVINCED AMERICAN DOLLAR BACKED BY GOLD Ily Claude A. Jagger (Associated Press Financial Editor) NEW YORK. Aug. 16 (JPJ The world money markets awake to the fact thia wvek that tHe American dollar Is still a gold dollar. This was made clear six months ago when the dollar was put on an in ternational gold bullion standard, at the rate of 15 6-21 grains or the yel low metal per dollar. In the excitement over the na tionalization of silwr, as a port of the program to restore the value and stability of that metal, there was an Inclination to forget the gold behind the dollar. Under an international gold bullion standard, gold is used only to settle international .balances which ore not automatically cancelled by the ex change of goods and services and ex tension of credit between, nations. Last February, Secretary Morgen thau made It clear that under regu lations governing the movement of gold, banks and others desiring to ship it abroad at a time when the dollar rates in terms of other cur- j rencics made It profitable to do so. would promptly be glwm permits to effect the transactions. But at no time until this week did the dollar go to such a discount, and remain there long enough, to prompt gold shipments. The dollar was at a premium above its new parity most of th time, and the movement of gold was toward the United States.

Danlells fooled them. "I'm out to destroy communism," he shouted. "Down with the reds!" This was free speech with a back fire. Tli reds, always ready to rip thj hide from privilege and pluto cracy. rose In wrath. They yanked a plank from the platform, and Danlell. still denouncing communists, went down. j Someone called the police. Thirty arrived, and the prospects for bash-xl head grew rosy, so some timid soul put In a call for more police. Then 18 more men arrived and riot rifles flashed. The reds dispersed, except for Ben Gordon. 37, who had no place to go Besides, he felt that the remarks of the previous speaker called for re buttal. He mounted the platform. "Comrades," he declared, "com--munlsm Is great stuff. The previous speaker Is Just a mouthpiece for the capitalists. I hereby denounce him, and am prepared to lead In three rousing hisses."
