Russia Lies About RubIe
1Y SYLVIA PORTER

Today and during the next
couple Of months. Russia's mil
lions Of citizens are turning in
10 Of their pre-1961 rubles for
one new one - and, they're
hearing the pleasant propa-
ganda that their new ruble is
worth $l.l1 against 81 for our
greenback, that their ruble now
has q greater gold content than
the sinking United States dollar
and that the ruble has become
"the most stable currency In
the world"
These are distortions, down.
right lies.
First. here's q short back
ground. In mid November the
Soviet, government announced
another In a series Of currency
devaluations under the Commu-
mist regime. to take effect in
the first three months Of 1861.
In this devaluation, the
Russians have been ordered to
turn in 10 old rubles-each
said to have q backing Of
0.222168 grams Of fine gold
for one new ruble. This new one
is declared to have Q backing
Of 0.9S7412 grams Of fine gold.
The Russians boast that the
United states dollar has only
0.8SS6705 grams Of fine gold
behind it, clearly the ruble is
now worth more than the
United States dollar In terms
OF gold. And since. they argue,
they're giving the new ruble q
value Of Sill, clearly it's worth
more than the American green
back. And since they're doing
this while gold is flowing out
Of the United States and the
American dollar is under at
tack, clearly Russia is becom-
ing supreme In the currency
sphere too.
Now let's get this straight.
ID If the old ruble had been
exchanged into the new ones
without Q devaluation. each
new ruble should have 2.22l6s
grams Of fine gold behind it
that's plain arithmetic. Instead,
each new ruble Is being given
0.9S74l2 grams Of fine gold.
What Russia actually has
done in this exchange Is de-
value the ruble again. this time
by more than S. per cent. She
