Not all of this was in the pre- cious yellow metal but some was in the “yellow backed currency which indicates. that the amount shown on the bill is assured be- cause of thabamount of gold being on deposit in the U. S, treasury jto cover the certificate. j. Shortly after the order had been issued from Washington, Wm. R. Porter, president of the bank, told The Citizen that oyer $56,000, practically all gold, had ‘been turn- ed into the institution within about 10 days. A large part of this ‘was from persons whose position in . the city was such as to cause no com- ment as their having hoarded but much of it was brought to the bank by those whom it was hard to conceive of being in possession of the amount turned in. Since that time the amount has | gradually grown. Folks that seem- led to he likely objects of charity jhave taken their hoardings to. the |bank and surprised officials with | the size of the amounts. This has kept up until today when Jerry J. Trevor, vice presi- dent of the bank, told The Citizen | that more than $75,000 has been ‘received and forwarded to the Fed- jeral Reserve Bank in Atlanta. | After Monday, May 1, all per- sons hoarding $100 or more in | i punished by # fine of $10,000 or ten years in penitentiary er both. ‘MAKES REPORT ON \ gold or gold certificates may be! | | | “undoubtedly will help in {determining steps to be taken hereafter.” The joint statement was issued as they met for a final | conference before Herriot headed homeward this after- _ noon.
