WORLD MARKET FOR U. S. GOLD

Benefits OF the world demand for gold at prices
greatly in excess of $35 should be available
to American miners, according to resolution just
adopted by the Board of Directors of the San Fran
cisco Chamber of Commerce recommendation of its
Mining Committee
Adrien j Falk is President of the Chamber and
George B. Dodge is Chairman of the Committee whose
members include representatives of large and small
companies engaged in gold mining throughout the
West.
After noting that market for gold bullion exists
in India and North Africa as examples at prices in
excess of the legal price in the United States and
that the American government is supporting armed
forces for defense of countries where there is
great demand for gold the resolution proposes pro-
by the President of the United States and the
State Department whereby both the American govern
and domestic producers could obtain the benefits
of the high grade prices.
Support of the Chambers position is being sought
from all of the congressman of the Western States
as well as various organizations concerned with the
domestic mining industry.
Wartime conditions have brought many problems
to American gold producers and it is believed that
The Daily Alaska empire. [volume] (Juneau, Alaska) 1926-1964, 1944-07-26

cynically regard this war as one
between fascist and imperialist
powers. A generous British ges-
ture to India would change this
undesirable political atmosphere.
India itself might then be expected
more positively to support our war
effort against Japan. China, which
regards the Anglo-American bloc
with misgivings and mistrust, might
then be assumed that we are in
truth fighting for better world.
And the colonial people conquered
by the Japanese might hopefully
feel that they have something bet
ter to look forward to than simp-
ly return to their old masters.
Such a gesture, Mr.. President,
will produce not only tremendous
psychological stimulus to tagging
morale through Asia and facilitate
our military operations in that the
atre, but it will also be proof posi-
tive to all peoples-our own and
the British included this is
not war of power politics, but a

have around us a sympathetic In
dia rather than an indifferent and
possibly a hostile India. 1t would
appear that we will have the prime
responsibility in the conduct of the
war against Japan. There is no
evidence that the British intend to
do more than give token assistance.
If that is so, then the conditions
surrounding our base in India be-
come of vital Importance.
AT present the Indian people are
at war only in legal sense. In
dams feel they have no voice in
the Government and therefore no
responsibility in the conduct of the
war They feel that they have
nothing to fight for. as they are
convinced that the professed war
aims of the United Nations do not
apply to them. The British Prime
Minister, in fact, has stated that
the provisions of the Atlantic Char
ter are not applicable to India,
and it is not unnatural, therefore,
that Indian leaders are beginning
to wonder whether the Charter is
only for the benefit of white races.
THE present Indian Army is
purely mercenary. General Still
well has expressed his concern over
the situation and in particular in
regard to the poor morale of the
Indian officers.
THE attitude of the general pub
lie towards the war is even worse.
Lassitude and indifference and bit
terness have increased as a result
of the famine conditions, the grow
ing high cost of living and con-
tinued political deadlock.
While India is broken polite
ally into various parties and groups,
all have one object in common
eventual freedom and independence
from British domination
TIME FOR BRITISH TO ACT
There would seem to be only
one remedy TO this highly unsat-
isfactory situation in which we
are unfortunately but nevertheless
seriously involved, and that is to
change the attitude of the people
of India towards the war, make
them feel that we want them to
assume responsibilities TO the
United Nations and are prepared to
give them facilities for doing SO.
THE present political conditions
do not permit of any improvement
in this respect. Even though the
British should fail again, it is high
time that they should make an
effort to improve conditions and
re-establish confidence among the
Indian people that their future IN
dependence is to be granted.
Words are of no avail. They
only aggravate the present situa-
ton. 1t is time for the British to
act. This they can do by a SOL
cmn declaration from the King

MUCH AT STAKE FOR U. S.

Il feel strongly, Mr.. President,
that in view of Our military po-
sition in India, we should have a
voice in these matters. 1t is not
right for the British to say this
is none of your business when we
alone presumably will have the
major part to play in the struggle
with Japan.
IF we do nothing and merely
accept the British point of view
that conditions in India are none
of our business, then we must be
prepared for various serious conse-
quences in the internal situation in
india which may develop as re-
suit of the despair and misery and
anti white sentiments of hundreds
of millions of subject people.
