DEADLINE IS TODAY ON GOLD HOARDING Roosevelt’s Decree Effective Tomorrow—$10,000 Fine or 10 Years’ Penalty. By the Associated Press. A few short hours stand between gold hoarders and possible prosecution for violation of the President's executive order requiring gold to be returned to the Federal Reserve banks on or before May 1. Any person found guilty of hoarding gold after tomorrow will be subject to a fine of $10,000 or 10 years' imprison- ment, or both. After yesterday, under the Chief Executive's declaration, no person may have in his possession more than $100 in gold or gold certificates. Any person now receiving any gold in the ordinary transaction of business must turn it over to the Federal Re- serve banks within three days and re- ceive other lawful money for it. The hoarding of gold and currency first was forbidden by President Roose- velt in his national bank holiday proc- lamation on March 6. Frightened de- positors of the Nation's banks had with- drawn more than a billion dollars from the banks in February and in the first week of March they took out more than $200,000,000 in gold alone. Created Emergency. ‘The withdrawals had created a na- tional emergency which resulted in the closing of the banks, and the Presi- dent’s proclamation was followed a few days later by passage by Congress of | the emergency bank law which re- affirmed his demand that hoarding be made unlawful. The President’s move against hoard- ing was supported immediately by the Federal Reserve Board, which called upon all Federal Reserve banks to repare and forward to Wi n a ist of all persons who had withdrawn large amounts of gold and had failed to return it to the banks by March 15. The date was later extended to March 20 and then to March 27. and the banks were told the lists could include the names of persons who withdrew gold over a two-year period. The frenzied withdrawals had re- sulted in the gold reserves of some of the 12 banks approeching a danger- ously low point and became a menace to the country in that it removed from the banks the metal that could be used to put out two and a half times as much currency. The lists of the gold hoarders. pre- pared by the banks and sent to ‘Wash- ington showing, the names of the hoarders on March 27, now are in the care of the Federal Reserve Board and immediately available to Secretary of the Treasury Woodin, who has indi cated that the Government will have no mercy in cases where it is shown that gold was willfully hoarded in viola- tion of the President's order. $600,000,000 Returned. During the first three weeks after Mr. Roosevelt had declared hoarding was injuring the Nation. $600.000,000 in gold and gold certificates was re- turned to the banks of the Nation. Then came a slowing down in the re- turn flow of the metal. There still remained outside of the Treasury and Federal Reserve banks approximately a billion dollars in gold and gold certificates. In the first week. of April ony $31,000,000 in gold was re- turned and the second week saw only $50,000,000 added to the mount. On April 5 the President acted to accelerate the return of gold through issuance of an executive order requiring | th» return of 21l gold to the Federal rve banks by May 1 and all per- s ing gold to turn it over to the banks within three days after get- ting it. The order didn't speed up the'| return to anything eppreaching that of the first three weeks and something like $800,000,000 to $900,000,000 still re- mains outside of the Treasury. Prosecutions for violations of the law will be conducted by the Department of Justice, which will act upon regulations to be drawn up by the Treasury. ‘While officials do not hope to get all of the outstanding $900,000,000 returned to the Treasury they do expect that part of it still held in this country. For years American gold has been the most popular coin hcarded in Eurcpean coun- tries, and durinz the years of the in- dustrial boom the hoarcding of Amer- jcan double cagles (520 N grew to zing propo: 7 Much American gold also hes disap- eared in Russia end other amounts ave been lost. American Coin Sought. American gold also has disappeared through another means—through melt- ing it down for the use in the manufac- ture of gold articles—a practice quite common in European countries. In most of those countries domestic gold coin could not be used for such pur- poses or hoarded because of the strict laws forbidding it. In this emergency the hoarder and user of gold sought the American coin first because it was regarded as the most stable money in the world and second for its high gold content, which amounted to nine-tenths of the coin's weight. The order of March 6 forbidding the paying out of gold or zold certificates caught the country by surprise. No one had expected the time would come when a gold certificate would not be readily cashed in for its equivalent in gold. ‘The certificates were issued by the Government only upon deposit of an equivalent 2mount of gold with the ‘Treasury and always have been a ware- house receipt for gold held in the Gov- ernment vaults. Since the first days of the United States the Nation's gold coin has been one of the world’s most stable monies. Today it remains just the same coin, but instead of freely circulating, is held by the Government. More than three billion dollars rests in Government vaults where it furnishes the backing for enouch currency to meet any de- mand that may be made upon the Nation. GARMENT DONATIONS ARE ASKED FOR NEEDY ‘Washington housewives whose Spring house cleaning activities lead to the dis- carding of old clothing of any descrip- tion, whether Summer or Winter wear, are urged to donate the garments to the Clothes Conservation Committee for immediate distribution to the needy, or for storage until cold weather.

By the Associated Press. MOSCOW, April 29.—Almost a mil- | lion members and aspirant members of the Communist party are slated to be ousted under drastic “purging” regula- tions, promulgated today, which were designed to eradicate all~ “careerists, hypocrites and actual enemies.” At the same time the government greatly extended the recently estab- | lished passport system, thereby increas- ing its power to supervise the life and movements of the people. On June 1 the Communist party will launch its “purging” campaign to com- plete the preliminary weeding out pro- cess which started the first of the year. ‘This campaign, orders issued by the party’s central control committee made clear, will be pursued not only to get rid of hostile Communists but also to elimi- nate “unstable and undisciplined” members. Some to Go on Probation. All Communists found to be “insuffi- ciently trained” will be degraded to the rank of candidate for a probationary period of one year, during which they will be expected to increase their polit- ical knowledge and their sense of re- sponsibility. Persons now in the category of candi- date will be placed in the corps of “sympathizers,” specially created for them in the new order. This regulation hits those candidates who are con- sidered inadequately trained for their ary period also will extend for one year. The Communist party strength at present is 3,200,000, of whom 1.200,000 party obligations, and their probation- ! Ford Young, first vice president of the association, presided at the meeting.

The party authorities admitted that as a result of recent mass admissions “many sirange elements have penetrated the ranks, including careerists, hypocrites and actual enemics.” Passport Plan Extended. ‘The extension of the passport system, recently introduced in the largest cities of the nation, was decreed by the coun- cil of people’s commissars. In the future passports will be re- quired of the populations of all cities, workers’ settlements and all new plants and enterprises, and of all persons as- signed to transport, state farms and tractor stations. In addition, person living within 100 kilometers of Russia's western frontier must be pro- vided with a passport. It was explained that in all cases, ex- cept in the principal population centers | in which the passport system was orig- inally introduced, passports will be is- sued without reference to the *“social origin and socially useful work” of the applicant. This means that the passports will serve only as identity cards in the smaller cities. In the larger cities, where they have been required for sev- eral months, they have assisted the au- thorities in weeding out persons con- sidered undesirable. Extension of the passport system to the rural districts was foreshadowed by a regulation requiring all persoms in these districts to be registered.

Treaties Deciared Flouted. “International treaty obligations are flouted, the sanctity of contracts ignored, while force and violence are either indulged in or threat- ened in different parts of the world; the international exchange and mone- tary situation loudly call for stabiliza- tion; the commodity prices in world markets are in a state of collapse; in- ternational finance and trade are al- most dried up.” Pointing to “hundreds of millions of | suffering and desperate people in the | various countries,” Hull said one phase of the psychology “is the possibility of social disturbances and uprisings leading to wid disorders.” “It is also true,” he added, “that most mode: military conflicts and other seriou international controversies are rooted in economic conditions, and that economic rivalries are in most modern instances the prelude to the actual wars that have occurred. “The restoration of fair, friendly and normal trade relations among nations at present would not only avoid serious economic, military and political differ- ;ntcu ble;wee? utmnmu in the future, ut would go far toward com | now existing.” POt e Co-operation Held Essential. By international co-operation in & <pirit of good will Hull said, “the , shackles” to international trade and commerce will be loosed and “the great burden of depression removed from tie | land.” Representative McReynolds of Tennes- | ee. chairman of the House Foreign Committee, in another address defended ;’he cnnslltlu'.lonlllty of the arms em- argo resolution now diny Sefium Py n“ cReynolds said he had been greatly astonished recently to learn m!mberz of the American Soclety of International Law had questioned the constitutionality | of the resolution on the ground it would enzble the President to make interna- ticnal agreements and therefore was & delegation of his treaty-making powers: “Aside from the misconstruction of | the words used in the resolution, how- | ever,” McReynolds said, “it was a mate ter of some astonishment to me that lany one should at this state of our | national history attempt to question the | constitutionality of legislation which would call for the President’s action in co-operation with other governments.” ‘BEER NIGHT’ WEDNESDAY The “Forgotten Man” and the “New Deal” will be celebrated by the Wash- ington Transportation Club at a “Beer nd Carnival Night,” Wednesday at the Raleigh Hotel.
