East Kotoneo
Is Created by
Conqolese

LEoPOLDvMLE, The Congo,
June 20 (AP) I'm an attempt
to block former secessionist
leader Noise Tshombe's hopes
for a political comeback, the
Congolese Parliament has
carved a new province out of
his Katanga stronghold.
The Senate yesterday APP
proved creation Of East Ka-
tanga, consisting Of three ter
ritories of North Katanga and
part of Mr.. Tshombe's old
power base, South Katanga.
Earlier, Parliament had cut off
the western part of South Ka-
tanga to form the Province of
Lualaba.
BY splitting South Katanga
into two new provinces, the
central government appeared
to have succeeded in blocking
Mr.. Tshombe from power. OBJ
servers believe Mr.. Tshombe,
now in exile in Europe, cannot
muster enough support to be
elected president in any of the
provinces.

Bill Offered
To Remind
CourtofDeity
BY the Associated Press

Representative Ash m or e,
Democrat Of South Carolina
has introduced q bill to put
the inscription "In God We
Trust" above the bench in the
Supreme Court.
His bill would provide that
the inscription be in appropri-
ate gold lettering, centered on
the marble portion Of the frieze
Immediately above the chair OF
the Chief Justice.
Mr.. AShmore said yesterday,
These simple words are indie
ative Of the faith Of the over
whelming majority Of the peo-
pie Of our great Nation. I can
not see how any member OF
Congress, or anyone else, can
object to such q profound and
reverent truth"
His resolution follows the

land last fall, and that he Is
continuing because II want to
see II there Is still some value
in the mineral rights.
Mr.. Chavez said in Albu-
querque he would not answer
the court order because he did
not intend to come to New
York to be served with a sub
poena. He said, however. he
would submit to interrogato-
ries" in New Mexico If New
York officials went there to
question him.
Mr.. Chavez said he knew
Mr.. Lofland and considered
him quite an operator" but
added: II have never been as
ISOLATED with him in business
in a legal capacity or socially. .
The Attorney Generals office
said Mr.. Lofland used people
who trustingly befriended him
and who were unaware Of his
devious schemes" in promoting
the sale of deeds in Lea County,
N. Mex.
Mr.. Lofland based his oper-
alton on the recovery of multi
million-dollar mineral rights
which he claimed the United
States Government had taken
from "homesteaders" In New
Mexico, Mr.. Lefkowitz said.
The Government has always
retained mineral rights on land
given homesteaders.
Mr.. Lefkowitz said the case
goes back to 1865.
Mr.. Lofland registered as a
Federal lobbyist In May. 1861,
and also represented that he
had retained Mr.. Chavez, Mr..
Murray. Mr.. Chapman and Mr..
Casey as attorneys in WASH
ington.
Mr.. Lefkowitz said that no
investor has received a return,
though "Lofland was able to
induce various individuals to
part with 100000 by falsely
representing he was a million
aire oil man who owned mineral
rights on oil producing lands
in New Mexico"

said he knew that motels rep
resent one Of the most expen-
sive types Of investment In
terms Of jobs created because
they require o high ratio Of
capital directly to jobs. For
this reason he said the Bank
ing Committee cautioned the
agency to be careful in APP
proving motel loans.
Several days ago there were
reports that friends Of the
program would trim down the
amounts In the hope Of making
the bill more palatable to the
House.
But this strategy apparently
has been changed. Present In
dications are the Senate will
not reduce the size Of the pro-
gram. In the House, however,
supporters may propose some
reductions in the hope Of re-
versing the slender margin by
which the earlier bill was
beaten.

from Mr.. Lofland's New York
office at 405 Park avenue.
No charge Is on file against
Mr.. Lofland.

tary said that after several
months investigation Of land
and mineral rights cases II
found that Mr.. Lofland didn't

that he Cancelled a 4 per cent

YOUR MONEYS WORTH
Great Gold Flow
Five City Blocks
BY SYLVIA PORTER

The gold bars-each worth
$13,434.79 - have been moved
only five blocks and remain in
downtown Manhattan. But the
United States has 500 million
less of gold in reserve while
France has 500 million more
of gold in reserve. The gold has
flowed out"
1t would work the other way
too. If France sold 500 million
of gold to us, the armored
trucks would simply retrace
their route - pick up this
amount Of gold bars at the
New York Federal Reserve, de-
liver the bars to the Assay Of
flee. Or If France sold gold to
Italy, the bars involved would
just be shifted from Frances
numbered cage to Italy's num-
bered cage-which could be a
matter OF a few feet.
1t may seem a game of musi-
cal chairs, but 1t is deadly Sc
rtous. Nations rise and fall on
the total of gold they own and
the worlds confidence in the
stability of their currencies.
The grimmest financial prob
lem facing the United States
today is the persistent deficit
in our balance of payments and
the relentless threat this poses
to our gold reserve and dollar.

In the early 1930s, I watched
ships pulling out Of New York
harbor with gold for our for
eign creditors. And / recall
watching long lines Of mer
waiting to change dollars into
gold for shipment abroad. ! re-
call the panic which forced us
to devalue the dollar by raising
the price of gold to $35 an
ounce from $20.67.
Because of this, the contrast
between the great gold outflow
of the early 1930s and the great
outflow of the early 1905 is
particularly interesting to me.
Since early 1862, $l.1 billion
of gold has moved out of the
United States. Our reserve is
now below $15.8 billion, lowest
since 1899. Foreign creditors are
building UP immense claims
against the dollar which they
can transfer into gold at any
time and we're certain to lose
considerably more Of our hoard,
How is this gold moving out
Of the United States now?
1t is taken out in armored
trucks which move the gold
bars from one set Of cages in
the United States Assay Office
in downtown Manhattan to an
other set of cages in the New
York Federal Reserve Bank,
also in downtown Manhattan.
The entire route is five New
York blocks, less than is min
utes' walking distance.
It's a little-known, interest
ing tale.
About 70 foreign countries
are keeping gold in numbered
cages in the New York Federal
Reserves VAULTS feet below
street level, SIS feet below sea
level. Let's say France is among
them (the Federal Reserve does
not identify the countries hav-
ing cages, but of course she is
one) and France decides to
transfer 500 million Of her
dollar claims into gold in Or
der to bolster her precious
metal reserve.
A French official calls a New
York Reserve official and noti-
flies him that France plans to
exchange 500 million for gold
at the United States standard
price of $35 a troy ounce.
The New York Reserve off,
cial calls a counterpart at the
Assay Office and tells him of
the 500 million demand for
gold.
On the agreed-upon day, ar
mored trucks draw up at the
Assay Office on Old Slip at the
East River, load the gold bars,
drive them five blocks to the
Federal Reserve at 80 Liberty
Street.
Guards take the gold bars
down to a subterranean vault,
trundle them, go to 100 at a
time, through the massive 90
ton steel vault door and into
q room where the bars are
weighed on a huge scale so
sensitive it weighs to the near
est 1/100 of a troy ounce.
Then the cuStodians = who

guards so their toes won't be
crushed If one of the 27-pound
bars is dropped-move the bars

number belongs to France. The
cage is locked and sealed. rer
