Mint RECEIPTS
BEING WATCHED
in WASHINGTON
CAPITAL OBSERVERS KEEP
AN EYE ON UNCLE SANS
GOLD SINCE INAUGURA-
TON OF NEW POLICY
By HERBERT PLUMMER
: my Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, Nov. TO-
Those charged with keeping an
eye on Uncle Sans gold are
watching with more than a casual
interest his mint receipts since in
auguration of the presidents new
gold policy.
The country's gold production is
roughly around $50,000,000 a
year. Last year 2,5O7,527 ounces
of the metal valued at $50,621,-
500 were mined in the various do
nestle fields.
The rate at which this gold finds
its way into treasury vaults has
fluctuated widely month by month
this year. Starting off with re-
ceipts of 1878 ounces in Janu-
airy, the peak of 1877. 694 ounces
was reached in March.
April and May receipts drifted
back nearer the January figure.
In June, however. low of 64,445
ounces was reported. Both the
July and the August receipts were
below 100000 ounces.
In September they began to
climb again. Receipts of 105,985
ounces were reported, a gain of
9,720 ounces over the August fig
ure.
Enter, New Gold
The reason for this fluctuation
from month to month is difficult
to determine. Many factors en-
ter into it.
1t is interesting to note, how
ever, in connection with the in
crease of September, that it was
on September 8 that the treasury
fixed the price of gold at $29.62
an ounce.
Before that date all gold was
subject to the government decree
