(From July Mines Bulletin
 Even with amendments to the Murray Gold Bill $500 and the similar companion bill by Rep. w. Barring of Nevada, the US. Trea- sury has turned thumbs down on any subsidy for domestic gold miners, regardless of the amount per ounce. The amended bills pointed out more clearly that these are subsidy bills, but the treasury says that the objections contained in it's original report on s. 590 still holds good.
 An editorial in the June issue E. & M. J. on the Discipline of Gold in the New Era by Elliott V. Bell, editor and publisher of Business Week" said the U. s. faces "new and critical era"
 Principal reason, he said, was the persistent drain on gold and dollar assets required to settle deficits in international payments. During the 1949-58 period these deficits averaged about $1,5-bil- lion per year. In 1858, he said, the deficit suddenly jumped to S34-billion, and in 1859, to $3.7- billion. Further comment by MT. Bell is quoted as follows:
 "The United States program of international assistance has been, in effect, like huge pump-prim- ing program, conducted on glo- bal scale It has financed a tre- mendous foreign demand for Am erican goods, and it has made pos sible the rebuilding of Europe's industrial plant.
 "Obviously when this great out pouring of dollars comes to an end, world trade will lose some thing that has been a prolonged and powerful stimulus. There will, I think, no longer be room for doubt that the era of world wide post war imitation is over; the big question will be whether deflation must inevitably follow?
 Now, why must our great glo- bal pump -priming program that has done so much good be ended;
 No country, not even the US, can keep on giving away it's money to foreigners forever with out reaching the bottom of the barrel How soon the bottom of the barrel is reached depends on two factors: one, the willingness of foreign central banks and gov ernments to keep on accommodating dollar balances without asking for gold; two, the reserves of gold

Europe's Managed Money Policies
 Puts us. Gold Standard son the Spot

available should it be asked for
 At present we have left about S19-billion in gold, very large sum, and far more than any other country has. However, foreigners now hold just about $19-billion of short-term dollar assets for which they could demand gold.
 "This brings us to the most inn portant reason why our balance of payments deficit is disturbing Any substantial conversion of foreign dollar balances into gold would have restrictive effect upon our economy. Under the workings of our money system, gold withdrawals tend to reduce the money supply, tighten credit and bring about deflation. This is the discipline of the gold stan dard. Under the gold standard, nations which pursued loose fiscal policies, had consistently unbal- anced budgets or persistent de ficits in their international bal ance of payments, soon found themselves losing gold and had to mend their ways promptly or risk being forced off gold.
 In the period of worldwide depression in the 1930's, this gold standard discipline proved insup- portable and country after cOun- try abandoned the gold standard and adopted managed money polices. They were willing to let the external, foreign exchange value of their currencies fluctu- ate in order to be free to take whatever steps they wished to maintain economic stability at home.
 'NoW all of the principal coun- tries of Europe have stabilized their currencies. In effect, the world has returned to gold eX- change standard. Since the United States has maintained from 1884 fixed price of gold at which it will sell to foreign central banks and governments, most countries keep only part of their reserves in gold and a large part they keep in dollars. The dollar has thus become the principal re- serve currency of the world. As such it will be narrowly watched and there must be absolutely no question about our ability to meet instantly in gold all demands that may be made on us.
 "The practical consequence of this is that, for the first time in quarter century, the United States has lost the freedom to take whatever fiscal or monetary measures it sees fit to maintain domestic economic stability. For the first time since the early 1930's we are subject to the dis cipline of the international gold standard"

Cobb did not hesitate. He
stepped out on the stage,

Mrs. L. R.-Isabel is really
getting to be a problem child
and we don't know what to
do with her.
1t is true her father has
hit her on occasion, but he
has never really miStreated
her. He has hit her when
she talked fresh to him or
me. He hit her only once in
front of a boy friend. That
time she yelled at him when
he spoke to her and the boy
about coming in late.
My sister might be willing
to take Isabel for a while,
but her place is home with
her own family. My sister
has four youngsters Of her
own.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Isabel is evidently going
through a painful period Of
adolescent stress and prob
ably has little control over
her tongue OF her actions.
Isabel, like all girls, de-
sires love and appreciation
from her family - particu-
larly her father. She and
her father have now formed
a habit Of interchange that
simply doesn't allow a break
through of the love they un-
doubtedly have for one an
other.
We don't think hitting is
often a good form of punish
ment. Too frequently it gives
the parent the feeling that
miSbehavior has been dealt
with when it has merely
been showed aside for the
moment. A constantly mis-
behaving child is having
trouble inside and it is the
parents responsibility to
find out what it is.
Pride is a big point with
teen-agers. Mr.. L. R. could
win his daughters love and
respect and mold her into a
happy woman if he would
praise her whenever and for
whatever he can. He should
be stern about dating hours,
but avoid humiliating Isabel
