New Gold Regulations.

The new executive order on gold will
benefit chiefly the gold miners, who
have been forced since the embargo to
sell their gold to the Federal Reserve
or to the assay Offices at the statutory
price of $685. an ounce, measured IN
deprecated dollars, whereas the world
price would bring them about $3.50.
The new order permits the Treasury
and the Reserve banks to buy the gold
at the world price and dispose OF 1t to
licensed users here and abroad. This
means, CT course, an immediate IN
crease in the price of geld and accounts
for the boom in mining shares. The
gold purchased at the advanced price
will not be held, it is understood, as
part of the monetary stocks OF the
country-where it would have statu-
tory value of S20.67 an ounce-and it
is expected that most of it will be used
In domestic arts and industry.
Although there has been discussion
sf the establishment of free gold
market IN this country, the admins
uation's anti-hoardirg efforts, which
are continued, would make that I'M
practicable. With the uncertainty over
the Nations monetary policy, people
would be inclined to buy gold and hoard
it, which would be possible with the
establishment of a free market. The
hoarders of gold, hcwever, receive
new warning There have been so many
of these warnings before that one easily
loses track of the number. But the
hoarders of gold have again been
warned that such practices are unlawful
and liable to get them into trouble. They
must new report, on prepared forms, the
amount of gold they are boarding and
do this within fifteen days. After they
make out their returns on boarded gold
in excess of s100 they must turn in
the gold within thirty days or face
prosecution.
Attorney General Cummings believes
that this will serve as an efficient way
OF getting on the track of the gold

weary Department of Justice-which
has done much searching for hoarders,
but no prosecuting-a new fifteen-day
breathing spell, The Department OF
Justice is supposed to be in possession
of information regarding forty hoarders
who have refused to turn in something
less than 100000 worth of gold. There
have been estimates that between one
and five hundred million dollars in gold,
gold coin and gold certificates are in
the hands of hoarders whose identity
has not been established.
It would be very fortunate for the
Government, of course, if the hoard
ers of this gold, which has already
gained se.83 an ounce because OF dol
lar depreciation, would now repent and
make out their returns and get rid OF
It. 1t might be more fortunate still If
the Department of Justice would call
the bluff of the hoarders who have
challenged the Government. and prove
beyond a doubt the Governments de-
termination to make good on its vari-

The N. R. A. Parade.

Last evenings parade demonstrated
that the N. R. A. idea can be drama
tized with success. 1t was novelty
among Pennsylvania Avenue process
sions. It's character was far more ad-
yanced than any other march the old
street ever before had seen under gov
ernmental auspices. 1t served to ex-
press an ideal constructively radical.
1t manifested in an organized form the
experimental psychology OF the New
Deal. Its watchword was cooperation
and its whole significance was that OF
popular support for the social aspira-
tions of President Roosevelts program
of reconstruction.
Ten thousand men and women are
said to have participated, and their en-
thusiasm was contagious. 1t was clear
that they do believe Fundamentally in
the possibility of conquest of poverty
and economic disorder. Business and
labor bodies joined hands toward the
achievement of great spectacle, and II
their liberality of attitude may be ac-
cepted as symbol of mutual tolerance
and respect in the larger task OF restor-
ing authentic prosperity there need be
no skepticism about the eventual result
The vast throngs which lined the curbs
to watch the parade go by testified by
their presence to the sincerity OF their
interest.
1t is somewhat to be regretted that
the President himself necessarily was
absent. His presence would have helped.
But he will have pleasure in the reports
of the occasion which will reach him
from the press and other sources. He
will understand that 1t was good
show, a gesture of confidence on the
part of the community in which he is
a neighbor and friend as well as an
executive and leader.
