Self-Help
Packages
Explained
There are more than 50
types of CARE self-help pack
ages, it was pointed out to
day in connection with the
current campaign in Medford
to raise funds for CARE pack
ages for Greece. The project
is being sponsored here by
Medford Travel Study club
of the Oregon Federation of
Women's clubs. '
The packages range from
$1 and $2 school kits that
make it possible for children
to go to school, or may even
be used by adults to learn to
read, to $90 packages for sew
ing machines on which girls
and women can be trained to
earn their living. There are
also S20 kits of tools to train
men in various trades.
CARE also contributes
funds for special purchases
such as livestock for agricul
tural commodities or centers,
special equipment for schools
and medicine, drugs and me
dical equipment for health
clinics and hospitals.
Mrs. Walter Brown, Klam
ath Falls, president of Ore
gon Federation of Women's
Clubs, states that wherever
there is need of tools, CARE
attempts to fill it. The saw,
the preserving jar, the hoe,
the needle and thread, and
the slide rule are all tools of
self-support, and tools of re
covery. "CARE goes directly to the

There's a big difference be
tween Ft. Knox and the New
York Federal Reserve Bank.
Here in New York lies a for
tune of $8,500,000,000 of solid
gold, gleaming down 85 feet
below street level in impreg
nable vaults.
The Fed isn't afraid of vis
itors. One, armed with proper
credentials of say a newspa
per reporter, can visit the
vaults and paw over the gold.
They'll even let him lift a 28
pound bar worth $14,000. A
gold bar of that weight and
value is about the size of a
best seller volume.

they know the Americans

es. "This awareness strength

abilities and encourages them
in turn to greater initiative."

A race horse must win the

Nobody's talking about this
reluctance to permit anyone to
take a look at the $12 billion
Ft. Knox gold. But it is a bit
odd.
There's one difference be
tween the two gold hoards.
That at Ft. Knox belongs to
us it's U.S. property. The
gold at the New York Federal
Reserve is ear-marked set
aside for foreign nations
who trust us to keep it in the
impregnable vaults of the Fed
eral Reserve Bank.
If anyone should have the
opportunity to steal a bar of
gold, it wouldn t do him much
good unless he could smuggle
it out of the country and that's
practically impossible.
We don't know now gooa
those valutsNare at the fort.
We do know the ones at the
Fed here are "burglar proof.
And just in case anyone gets
reckless there are 120 guards
at the New York bank who
can shoot straighter than the
Lone Ranger. The word is if
you want to commit suicide,
try running across the floor of
the New. York Federal Re
serve Bank.
But there must be many
more guards at Ft. Knox,
armed with artillery, and who
knows but what there might
be an atomic weapon or two.
Supose that S12 billion in
gold isn't at Ft. Knox. Suppose
it sank down deep into the
ground.
The Old Story
The situation might be like
the story that used to go
around during the good old
days of gold standards when
one could buy gold for $20.67
per fine ounce and use it for
a door stop . or any other item
he desired. '
The story was that all the
nations of the world pooled
their gold and cached it in an
island in a lonely part of the
Pacific Ocean i.i an impreg
nable, inaccessible location
known to very few people.
Each year an expedition
went to the island, made a
cursory inspection and re
turned home. The island was
able to receive messages but
couldn't send messages. Each
time a gold transfer was made
from one nation to another the
keeper of the gold would shift
the bars to the receiving na
tion's valut and a Dookkeeping
entry told of the change.
Faith of the gold's existence
was all that was needed to
make the transaction binding,
As the expedition neared
the island one sunny day, the
small inspection group was
horrified to find it had sunk

"What'U we do," one of the I
young men wailed. "The
world will be in a chaos over
this."
"Say nothing at all," said
his elderly companion. "No
one ever need know the gold
is gone. They need only the
belief it's safe and we'll tell
them it is."
