The purpose of the plan is to manage the purchasing power of the dollar through establishment of a domestic gold market and the purchase and sale of gold-in world markets to accompany @ rise in commodity prices, The administration in Wash- ington has decided in effect that the producer and farmer must have a higher dollar price for his wares. Gold Price Adjustable As a means for maintaining se bilized prices at a higher level, the price of gold will be establish-| ed through the Reconstruction Fi. nance Corporation from time time after consultation with the secretary of the treasury and the president, They may raise or lower the dollar price of gold at; will. If more dollars are necessary to purchase a given amount of gold, then more dollars will be required to purchase a given amount of any commodity, : » argued, the government: will’ have an effective check on prices reach- ing too high a peak. If prices be- come too high, the government could reduce the number of dollars necessary to purchase an ounce of gold.
