GOLD OUTCOME

WASHIGTON. Jan. IL. Up Just
i'll S the supreme court should
rule against the government in the
momentouS gold clause case. some
senators are discussing legislative
plans TO avoid that one leading ad-
vocate of a cheaper dollar called the
"ruination of everything"
There has been discussion and
undoubtedly a program will be
ready" said Senator Thomas ID
Okla, but he quickly added:
We have every confidence the
supreme court will sustain the adj
ministration and the congress. An
adverse decision would have such a
widespread effect it would ruin
everything
Thomas told newspaper men that
one idea under tentative discussion,
OF which he was not the author.
would provide for increasing the
membership of the supreme court by
two or three TO make more certain
the recovery program would get a
new deal"
A prominent member OF the bank
ing committee. however. took the
stand that tbs would not be the
way to meet the situation. He add
ed that the committee had not dis
cussed the impending decision.
Upon the decision hang the fate
OF the new deal monetary program
and the question whether shall be

Chief Justice Hughes had asked fur

ment yesterday IN the last of five

whether a 81 600 gold security should
