would, if passed, increase, the. tax depletion allowance of gold min ing operations from e15 to623%. This would put gold on 9, par with other metals such as lead and zinc, and might help the few remaining gold operators stay in business a little longer.
 The question of whether the price of gold might be raised is becoming topic A in the worlds financial capitals, and gold it. self is becoming more of a weapon in the East West trade war. The economic possibilities have ere ated a speculative interest that has pushed many gold shares to new highs in New York, Toronto, and London Two things that have caused these trends are the recession and the recent extra large drains of gold from Fort Knox to foreign countries. Gold mining always becomes more at tractive in recessions Chough this one has not been accompanied by dropping prices) and the US. stocks of gold have been depleted by foreign purchases to the tune of SIP billion in the last four months. A potential effect of this drain is on the stability of the U. s. dollar.
 The switch from inflow of gold to outflow coincided with our re- cession and exports are down 25%, causing a shift in the bal ance of trade. Some experts think this is a calculated program to force the US. to raise the price. At any rate, there are terrific pressures for it from all sides, particularly London, South Af- rica, and Canada, who argue that it will help world trade. It is pointed out that their is not enough gold in the world now since the free-world money sup ply has increased fourfold since 1888 while gold stocks have in creased only 4O%. The US. is against a price boost since the main gathers would be large gold holders such as herself, France. West Germany and Switzerland, and the losers would be the un- derdeveloped nations of the Mid dle East and Asia. And of course, the biggest gainer of all would be Russia with her $8 billion in gold on hand and estimated pro- duction of $500 million annually. Considering this and also the fact that imitation seems to be continuing, the US. will prob ably resist all pressures for price boost for some time yet.

would produce the $275. 600
balance.
Mr.. Lundberg told the county
board his operating budget "is
designed to carry on general
activities at present levels with
provisions for normal growth. ="
This growth, he said, calls for
40 additional employees. The
major personnel increase would
be in the fire division where IA
more men are needed for the
new RosSlyn fire station, Mr..
Lundberg said.
Smaller CarryOver
A major factor in the county
managers request for additional
funds over the current budget
is that the $129,556 surplus is
about $4,000 less than the
comparable amount carried over
from last year.
In the $3.6 million capital
budget, $2,650,000 would come
from authorized bond money
and the balance from local
levies.
The bond expenditures cover
$1.9 million for courthouse
construction and $750,000 tor
sanitary sewer projects-the
Four Mile Run relief trunk
sewer and improvement to lift
stations.
The pay-as-you-go capital
improvement proposals include

ments, $68,600 toward a re-
gional juvenile shelter. $50, 200
for playground improvements
and $251 900 for land acquisi-
ton. This last figure covers
