 And with that hot shot he left the New Deal to It's victory.
 Belief that the courts decision had imposed this and succeeding administrations a permanent policy of sequesterIng gold instead of per- mitting 1t to circulate was based upon the liberty bond opinion. Weakness Ol Perry The court ruled that John M. Perry had not established that he had suffered loss because his IIb- erty bonds are being retired in new deal dollars but held that if loss actually were sustained recourse could be had to the court of claims.
 Thus, if gold again were permit ted to circulate years hence and maturing government obligations wer retired fin devalued dollars the bond owner should suffer. Pefry's weakness was that If the govern ment had actually paid him in gold he would not have been permitted to keep the metal.
 As an alternative there only re- mains the present policy of cur rency backed by q bullion reserve, the gold backing of which may be varied to comply with varying com modity prices.
 Although McReynolds wrote the dissenting opinion concurred in by Associate Justices Van Devanter, Sutherland and Butler, it scarcely reflected the bitterness and passion he put into his outline of the dis sent which went much further than the printed record.
 Seek Danger Signals
 Justice department officials arc combing the opinions for danger signals to guide them if additional monetary legislation Is needed.
 The definite commitment of the government to permanent policy of a gold bullion reserve was based on the courts findings in the liberty bond cases. The court ruled there that the government could not break n contract made with its citizens to pay In gold.
 The opinion saved the govern- ment by hedging the question of just compensation for the taking of gold with so many handicaps that suit to recover more than the face value of the certificate seemed im- possible.
 Under the courts ruling the per son suing would have to show to what extent he had been damaged. Not being allowed to hold gold coin he could not show himself entitled to receive them in payment. the court found. He would also have to show that commodity prices at present were such that his cur rency dollar would buy him less than the gold dollar would have bought when he made his contract for gold payment.

 it is a matter for the somewhat distant future. So long as President Roosevelt's authority to change the gold backing of the dollar lncked supreme court approval he virtually was foreclosed from dis- cussion with foreign powers. Under the decisions announced yesterday, Mir Roosevelt may mani- pulate the dollar within the 50 per cent limits fixed by congress. One year ago he reduced the gold value of the dollar to 59.06 cents. The remaining margin of 9.06 cents re- mains for bargaining purposes with foreign powers if and when money becomes the subject of internation- al discussion.
 As new dealers from the presi- dent down lauded the action of the court, treasury officials planned fu- ture steps in the governments yet uurevealed monetary program. Higher price levels and restora- ton of confidence were the imme- date objectives.
 Market Encouraging The sharp rise in stock and commodity prices which followed the courts decision was particu- larly encouraging to government officials. It indicated break in the restraint that had held business and finance stagnant for weeks. Indicating the affectI. of the gold cases on private finance the securities and exchange commis- sion announced new security regis- trations in January had fallen to S11.044.4o5 from $37,735,sS9 fin December and $49,756,447 in Jan uary, 1884.
 Business activity and public buy. ing during the early weeks of this year also declined more than sea- sonal from tho high rate of activ- fly in December.
 Hands on Poli"~
 Presumably American officials plan to maintain "hands off' pol. icy on money and credit until full effects of the government victory Is gauged by world markets. If commodity and stock pric"s should advance too rapidly some action might be necessary to pre- vent an infationary boom similar to that in June, 1893. hould prices begin a new decline additional credit or monetary imitation steps might be in order.
 Higher commodity prices is an objective of the administration n order that debts contracted nt higher prices can be paid off with dollars of nearer the same pur' chasing power. Administration officials have moi yet revealed the manner in which this is to be accomplished but dis closed victory in the gold clause cases had removed the principal barrier to their ultimate monetar, objective. The securities and exchange comn,ission watched fluctuations ir the security markets closely ready to order Suspension of tradinr should market fluctuations get out of bounds. They were confident because that complete order ir markets would soon be restored.

The local branch members de- nied emphatically the claim that 0S9 of the states total of 1150 tav- erns are members of the Connecti- cut Tavern owners association.

 Backed by Secretary The local group pointed out to- day that their organization has the backing of Lewis L. Lauria, secre- tary of the National Retail Deal ers' association, and that the state organization Of which they are a part is far stronger than the Connecticut Tavern Owners association.
