 MILAN, Italy, Jan. 24-Italy's lira is on the gold standard to stay and persons who pass rumors to the contrary will be punished severly, Premier Benito Mussolini's newspa- per, Popolo D'Italia, assured the na- tion.
 A rumored further per cent cut in government salaries, it said, is untrue because "at the present time costs of living are going up."
 A rumored tax on coupons for consolidated bonds and other ennis sions is "grotesque, because the bond conversion last February prot 30 per cent reduction in the in- come of bondholders."
 The lira is on the gold standard and will remain so, said Il Duce's organ.
