Substantial Advances Are Reported
As Nation RebuiIds Gold Reserve

supported by the employer
for the industrial workers.
Spain today can boast Of
close to 81 billion in gold in
its treasury. Only six years
ago the amount of gold or
hard currency reserves was
less than $50 million. The
Spanish financial plight was
due to the civil war. The Re-
publican government, which
chose to ask RuSsia's help in
the struggle. had at the out
set of the war in 1886 over
5000 million in gold. When
Frances victory seemed i'm
minent in 1888 the Repub-
lican government sent It's
treasury to the Soviet Union
for safekeeping. At the end
Of the war members of the
government fled to France
and Mexico. taking with them
the remaining gold, jewelry
and art treasures which were
converted into cash to support
the government in exile. The
Spanish treasury was literally
empty.
When Francois government
was recognized as the legiti-
mate administration of Spain
and was admitted to the
United Nations. it demanded
the return of the gold from
Moscow. The reply was that
there was no such gold in
the Soviet Union; 1t had
served to pay the cost of the
LoyaliSt cause for three
years. The thought of taking
the case before the Interna
tional Court of Justice was
abandoned when it was re-
allied that the chances of a
favorable decision were re-
mote. The only answer to the
gold and hard currency crisis
for Spain was hard work.

years. There is much I'M
happiness over the change
on both sides of the aisle and
it could remain a source of
friction.
Nor does it seem to the
men and women who carry
the day-to-day burden at the
United Nations that much
attention is being paid to
their stake in a more ami
cable solution. They consider
the tactical struggle unjusti-
fled and insist it will certain

The question Is raised of
whether the Senators are

fact that the U.N. Assembly
considered the bond proposal
and in the light Of its own

Aiken seems to feel that the

People on the Same Side Found Fighting

hope of achieving a better
solution. He feels that a mar
row victory in the Senate
would encourage the House
conservative coalition to turn
the bill around and
thoroughly confuse the issue
when the two chambers con-
fer on its final form.
How this situation deve-
loped is unclear. It appears
that the President and Sec
rotary of State Rusk did not
at first realize that it might
be a problem and so took too
little care with their presen-
atoms.
The President, normally so
aware of Senate pride, per-
mitted himself to say that
opposition to the bond issue
would be playing the Soviet
game. Apparently this irked

He wants to marry early-at

three children and a spouse

The Senate controversy
over how best to help the
United Nations out Of its ii.
nancial difficulties began in
q low key but has developed
into one Of those unhappy
fracases in which people on
the same side are fighting
each other.
All agree that the U. N.
should have $100 million to
pay its deficits: the differ
ence is only one Of method
These deficits arise from
U. N. special missions which
the Soviet Union refuses to
support, as the Congo oper-
alton.
President Kennedy pro-
posed q 25-year bond issue
which skinned by the Senate
Foreign Relations Commit
tee eight to seven. Repub-
lican Senators Aiken, Hick-
enlooper and Morton propose
to substitute a loan to be re-
paid in three years.
The position now is that a
close vote in the Senate is
expected. Private polls indi-
cate about 40 votes for the
substitute which Is much too
close for comfort, especially
as the make-weight votes will
come from conservative
Southerners.

MADRID - The economic
progress here is spectacular
at least from the Spanish
point of view. While the
growth does not match that
Of Germany. France and
Italy whose economies have
increased 5 to z per cent,
SPANS rate has been 80.
which is one point higher
than in once all-powerful
Britain.
Those who examine with a
critical eye what is going on
here must remember that in
many ways Spain is still liv-
ing in the early 10Th Century.
The cities are rapidly becom-
ing modernized and blighted
with modern architecture,
but in the villages and towns
life goes on at a leisurely
pace. The Spanish people are
proving that there can be
economic progress without
undue hurry.
Francisco Franco and his
many economic advisers are
proceeding with a steady in
naturalization of many areas
while soil conservation and
irrigation are converting
hundreds Of thousands of
former worn-out acres into
farm lands. At the same
time many large estates of
the wealthy are being divided
and offered to the peasants
on long-term payments.
Because of legislation liber-
alizing the transfer of earn
ings in peSetas into foreign
currencies. there is a great
impetus Of foreign invest
ment in this country as we'll
as a boomlet in industry.
American, German, French
and Italian manufacturing
companies are now establish
ing branches all over Spain,
taking advantage of the
availability of cheap labor.
Although the cost of liv-
ing and the standard of liv-
ing in Spain have increased
substantially in the last four
years, they are still behind
those in other European
countries and, of course, only
a fraction of those in the
United States. This is less
apparent in the main cities
where luxury hotels charge
only about IS per cent less
than those in New York,
Paris and Rome. But in the
smaller cities a person can
live we'll on about $3.50 a day.
For the native the cost is far
less than that.
These conditions permit
hourly wages between 20 and
40 cents with fringe benefits
such as medical care, unem-
ployment and retirement pay

We can begin with the
wire service reports that "as
many as 600 members of the
49th Armored Division, a
Texas National Guard outfit
called to active duty last Oc-
tober, marched in front of
the enlisted mems club as
part Of a protest against be-
ing held on duty and
that 200 members Of the d.
vision, in civilian clothes,
gathered in front Of the club
in . similar demonstration"
That this sort of thing is
dangerously harmful to mo-
rale and discipline is not
questioned. It is a destructive
virus that spreads insidiouSly.
That the men involved
should be subjected to
prompt and firm disciplinary
action also is clear. That they
would be, were it not for the
knowledge that such a course
would bring out all the Texas
Congressman in a bowling
protest, will hardly be ques-
toned.
The National Guards and
Reserves are more than ever
before in politics. They have
become sacred cows, jealous
ly guarded from moderniza-
ton, reduction or elimina-
ton. They are now so sure of
their separation from mill
tary discipline that they are
willing to engage in dem
onstrations that unquestion-
ably do serious damage to
military morale, because they
know that political forces viii
protect them.

President Kennedy may
be totally unware Of it, but
he Is being regularly mis-
quoted in the stenographic
transcripts Of his news con-
ferences as issued at the
White House.
On February 81, the White
House transcript quotes
President Kennedy as saying
one thing, but q tape record
ing shows that he said some
thing quite different. In the
transcript given out at the
White House, the President
Is reported TO have said:
II am hopeful that the
Soviet Union and ourselves
will be able, as I said from
the beginning, to reach an
accommodation (because)
obviously, any interference
with these kinds Of rights or
rights which may be in the
autobahn, all Of these things
carry with them hazards
which none Of us should well
come If we look to the pos
sible end Of the road.
$50 I would not make any
Judgment. I am merely
hopeful that it will be pos
sible for them to do this"
What the President actu-
ally said in the last sentence
was that he hoped it will be
possible "for them to desist. I"
Also, the word because" ap-
pearing above in parentheses
was omitted from the White
House transcript, thong h
clearly recorded on the tape.
In the same conference,
the President, according to
the transcript, made the fol-
lowing comment about his
brothers trip abroad:
II think the Attorney Gen
eral attempted to commune
cate that, but of course, he is
one voice. But he is attempt
ing, as you know, to spread
the light of the candle of the
Christian doctrine"
The tape, however, reveals
the President as actually said
that cts better to light a
candle than curse the dark
ness" There was no mention
Of Christian doctrine"
In the official transcript of
the March z news conference
at the White House, correc-
tons have to be made on
nearly every page to conform
to the tape recording.
On March IA, moreover, in
replying to a question about

will be a relative sinecure,
providing much, requiring
little. That a great many
persons Joined the outfit
with such belief is evidenced
by the anguished squeals Of
protest at being called into
active service.
These protests against serv-
ice are a far cry from Col.
John Glenn, who lately has
given the Nation the refresh
ing therapy Of unquestioned
sacrifice and acceptance Of
duty. But we should not over
look the fact that the net
works received protests for
filling up their screens" with
Col. Glenn and thus depriv-
ing complaining viewers of
their favorite Western or
comedian. Newspapers also
had dissenting letters, some
saying they were sick of so
much Glenn publicity" One
may assume that the authors
of these messages would, If
ordered into service, be
among the National Guard
demonstrators.
Polls and psychologists,
probing the minds of young
Americans, come up with
conclusions that are by no
means wholly reassuring. A
recent issue Of the Saturday
Evening Post published a
Gallup Poll study Of q cross
section Of 5000 young Amer
leans between the ages of IA
and %.

his trip to Mexico, the Presi-
dent said: THE trip is on"
But this part of his answer
recorded on tape-was omit
ted from the White House
transcript.
The President, in discuss
ing the nuclear-test problem,
is quoted in the same trans
cript as follows:
"And the third point is that
If the position Of the United
States as it is we would prefer
to secure a test ban treaty"
The tape recording shows
the President actually said:
And the third point is that
the position Of the United
States stays as it is: We
would prefer to secure q test
ban treaty"
These mistakes have been
appearing in the press con-
ference transcripts for more
than a year now, and there
is today no accurate record
of what the President says
except through tapes. Occa-
sionally some significant
omissions or mistakes are
caught by reporters and sew
eral hours after the press
conference corrections are
made by the White House.
But in many instances the
errors 60 uncorrected.
The reason for all this Is
this is that. despite the in
vention and wide use Of re-
corders, the administration
relies on old-f a shioned
methods Of stenographic re-
porting. If these transcripts
are really to become official.
they should at least be
checked against a tape re-
cording.
Tape machines are used in
many newspaper offices to
record what goes out over the
air. Often, however. broad
casting companies do not
have time to carry the entire
press conference and some
sections may be omitted in
order to squeeze the broad
cast into a half-hour on the
air. When this occurs, there
is no way that newspapers
or magazines across the coun-
try can Immediately check
the complete transcript for
accuracy. For they cannot
place their own recorders in
the conference room.

official transcript of a recent

Also the parents should share
