YOU AND YOUR MONEY
No. 5---I7oD De-Hoarded Gold Aids Recovery

(By Associated Press)
NEW YORK, March II.
The most valuable money
in the world is rapidly be-
coming a money that can't
be spent.
Gold is this most valuable mon
ey. Government edict now pre-
vents its ordinary use, and govern
ment pressure brought some $780,
900, 900 of it out of boarding with
in a week.
And by the mere movement of
these private boards into official
resting places in bank vaults the
Federal Reserve system can in-
crease the $1O0,000,000 in gold
money to $3.50, 100000 in Federal
Reserve notes redeemable in gold.
Gold The Measuring Stick
This is an example of what gold
has become in the long evolution
of money. Impractical as a mon
ey for everyday use because of its
scarcity and fragility, it is base
and measuring stick for other
money.
Federal Reserve notes are the
nations most widely used curren-
cy. When the bank holiday began
about $3,50O,O00,000 worth of
them were in circulation. By law
these notes are backed with 40
percent gold and so percent gov
eminent bonds or business mems
notes. Thus, by law, $1,400, 000,-
900 in gold (40 percent) and ST.
100,000,000 eco percent) in bonds
and notes was all that was needed
to support the $4,000, 100000 of
Federal Reserve notes.
Benefit From De-Hoarding
The new Federal Reserve bank
notes need no gold for backing,
since they are issued on bonds and
other collateral deemed sufficient
by the Federal Reserve banks.
Three billiema or mere could be is
sued in this form of money.
But the more gold in the banks

that subtle stuff which no man may

TROM the day centuries and CEN
turtles ago. when little David went
forth to meet Goliath Of Gath
and prevailed over his gigantic adver
sary on a simmering AsSyrian plain,
the annals Of competition have fur
nished evidence to refute the theory
that q good big man can always beat
good little man.
But not sufficient evidence in this re-
spect has been provided to detract in
any way from the momentous quality
Of such an event when 1t occurs.
So as willowly Carl Hubbell went
through inning after inning, holding
the stalwart Senators helpless. the null
titude thrilled in every increasing de-
gree to his deft proves. And when in
the end after two innings, the eighth
and ninth, in which his fate trembled
in the balance and then inclined to his
side, the crowd stood and rendered unto
him that acclaim which a sporting
throng so whole-heartedly gives upon
deserving occasion.

teammates seemed bent upon throwing

stuck to his task unriffled and undis-

It was he who presided over this con-
test. His was utter skill. His was the
art that confuses and confounds. Before

benders and changes Of pace, the big

mighty bludgeons. we're for the most
part as pygmies armed with willow

extraordinary infrequency-into the

more often happened, rolled lamely into

Deserved ShutOut.
Through those early innings no team
could have hit what he threw. His
curve bewildered the left-handed hit
tiers. Probably, they were looking for
his screw ball." but even if they ex-
pected the curve doubt whether they'd
have been able to hit it, its break was
so sharp and so well controlled.
But for infleld errors that can be
traced to first game nervousness he'd
have had q shutout. Certainly he de-
served it.
Not one of the five Washington hits
was solid whack. The hardest hit
