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.
