A member of the reserve bank
staff telephoned to the e" vault.
1t is. eighty-six feet below the street

A guard placed tag on the doors
Of two vaults, each containing
s50,000000 in gold. The tag merely
was numbered. A number in the
book upstairs said the gold be-
longed to the Bank of England.
Then Deputy j. E. Crane picked
up his telephone and apprised the
treasury department at Washing
ton that the British payment was
ready.
The treasury didn't want the gold;
it wanted money. So it immedi-
ately sold the gold back to the fed
eral reserve for money, and took in
its stead a deposit credit for that
much money.
And the gold was once more in the
possession of the reserve. Tags were
removed from the vaults and every
thing was just as it had been.
The reserve still has the $685.
$4,000 in gold set aside for it at the
Bank of England.
1t brings tine monetary gold stock
