WASHINGTON, Jan. 13. (AP)
President Itoosovelt was pre
pared today to toko over tho na

oral reserve system as a prelim
inary or eventual permanent de

He Is believed to want all of

policy.

Just when the next stop In the
national managed currency pro
gram will come, Mr. Roosevelt Ib
very carefully keeping to him
self. One thing Is certain, bow
ever: ho lnlonds to manage the
new money program himself.
Arguments as to whether the
administration could call In the
reserve system's gold were an
swered calmly by tho president
lata yesterday with tho declar
ation that ho had the power, un
der tho Thomas amendment, to
order the entire 13.000.000,000
bld to lb,treasury s..-rnulja.vj.
Answers Avoided. '
This step Is regarded as nec
cusary by most monetary experts
to Insuro that no outsiao prom
would result from permanent de
valuation of the dollar. This, of
course, would result In an In
creased price for all the gold out
standing. A burst ot reportorlal ques
tions yestorday as to whon and
if he would call In the fedoral
reserve gold and when he would
announce his next dollar move,
merely caused the president to
smile and leave the queries an
swered only by a wave of bis
hand.
