Roosevelt Lifts
Ban On New Gold;
Keeps Hoard Law

HYDE PARK, Aug. 29-President
Roosevelt today signed an executive
order permitting the Treasury to buy
newly mined gold and also lifting the
ban on the export of newly mined
gold.
At the same time the rules against
gold boarding are frightened with re-
gistration of all gold supplies made
obligatory.
Roosevelt's latest action means
enormous profits to the mining COM
panies and to all those who can get
newly mined gold.
1t is openly rumored that leading
politicians, like Bernard Baruch, Roo
sevelt's financial adviser, and people
like William Randolph Hearst, Ogden
Mills, and others are in a position
to reap a fortune in speculative pro-
fits as a result of Roosevelts ruling.
The step is also looked upon as a
preliminary to inflationary devalua-
ton Of the dollar.

City Goes to Wall
Street for Another
S4,OOO,OOO Loan
Rockefeller Banks Get
S35, 100000 from City
This Friday

NEW YORK, Aug. 2e.-With the
tribute to the bankers growing an
ever greater part of the Citys finan-
cial load the City government today
approached a group of Wall Street
bankers for another loan of $34,-
100000.
The latest reports are that the
banks have refused to consider the
loan unless even further reductions
are made in relief payments and an
other wage cut is instituted for civil
service employees.

OF the funds in the City Treasury
at present, 100000 is going to the
bankers as interest and loan pay
ments. The bankers group is
headed by the Chase National Bank,
controlled by the Rockefeller family
Plan Wage and Relief Cuts
In June the bankers granted the
City a temporary extension of time
on the s2o0,000oo0 short term loans
until Dec. II. In return for this
the City government guaranteed that
s35, 10000 of new revenue would be
raised, either by wage slashes or tax
levies.
AS all these enormous payments
to the bankers are soon falling due
the Tammany City government Is
preparing to levy new taxes and
slash wages and relief,
Since June, when Mayor O'Brier
refused to make public a certain let
ter which he wrote to the bankers
it has been widely rlunored that the
City has a secret agreement witt
the bankers on increasing the sub
way fare to 7 cents.
Untermeyer Serves Tanmany
The economy" Committee, headed
by Samuel Untermeyer, has already
issued hints of impending wage cuts
in the city payrolls, especially among
the lower civil service employees.
Untermeyer is also serving Tam
many on its famous board Of
strategy" which is planning the
ways and means to protect the cor
rupt machine from the resentment
of the city's population.
Thus far, the City has extended
all it's efforts in the direction Of
guaranteeing the enormous pay
ments to the Wall Street bankers
and to protecting the fat graft ii

deep Secret" Says
Green About His OK
For Auto Open Shop

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20. =
William Green said he would
rather not talk about his part in
approving the open shop clause
for the auto code in an interview
yesterday.
Asked why the Labor Advis-
Dry Board had approved the open
shop for the auto industry, Green
replied: "Well, that's deep Sc
cret."
After that he shut up like
clam.
Green thinks that if he keeps
his skullduggery a deep secret
the millions of workers hit by
his actions might forget about it
and not ask him some embarrass-
ing questions.

age, the latest reports indicate an
enormous exportable surplus in the
wheat country of the Pacific North

Meanwhile, for lack of foreign

trickle compared with former years
The July carryover from last
year is estimated at 386,000,000
bushels.
Bread Prices Rising
At London, Secretary of Agricul-
ture Wallace agreed to limit wheat
exports this year to 40,000,000 bu-

Meanwhile, Western farmers are

A statewide coal strike has
been called for tomorrow.
Three army trucks, loaded
with bayonets and munitions
were sent into Carbon County
last night by state authorities.
Hundreds of workers from Salt
Lake City are going to Carbon Coun-
ty to join the picket lines.
The Utah miners are striking to
force the bosses to carry out the
agreement made with the National
Miners Union. Officials of the Uni
ted Mine Workers of America are CO.
operating with the coal operators in
an effort to break the strike. Sheriff
Bliss has armed thugs of the UMWA,
deputized them. They have already
made many savage attacks on the
picket lines, but have been unable
to smash the solidarity of the strik-
ers.
Carbon County has been placed I'M

guns All highways are patrolled
and in the Gordon Creek section all
traffic has been stopped by agents

Sylvia Crouch, Women's Auxiliary
organizer, was arrested in her room

their agents evidently hope to jail
the organizers and hold them without
bond or even charges against them
while they carry on a vicious CAM

proceedings are being started to force
the release of Sylvia Crouch, and
Sheriff Bliss and the other agents OF
the operators will soon learn that
they cannot succeed in establishing
and continuing a regime of Fascist
terror.
More deputies are being recruited
by the operators in Salt Lake City
through the Chamber of Commerce
and special efforts are being made
to send every gangster of Salt Lake
City to Carbon County for use against
the striking miners.
In the face of this vicious terror
the ranks of the striking miners re-
main firm; and in spite of all pro-
vocation and violence on the part OF
the operators and their tools the
miners are determined more than ever
to fight forward to complete victory.
No amount of terror will drive the
miners back into the mines.
