FRO! a men LES | By HERBERT PLUMMER (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.— Those charged with keeping an eye on Uncle Sam’s gold are} | watching with more than a casual interest his mint receipts since in- auguration of the president’s new gold policy. The country’s gold production is roughly around $50,000,000 a year. Last year 2,507,527 ounces of the metal valued at $50,621,- 500 were mined in the various do- jmestic fields. | The rate at which this gold finds \its way into treasury vaults has ' fluctuated widely month by month this year. Starting off with re- | eéipts of 115,188 ounces in Janu- ary, the peak of 187,694 ounces | was reached in March. |° April and May receipts drifted | back nearer the January figure. | iIn June, however, a low of 64,445 ‘ ounces was reported. Both the | July and the August receipts were} | below 100,000 ounces. H My thanks to the voters of Key AL} f the community. With, renewed assurances of Sincerely yours, CLEVELAND NILES.

The higher price, in the opinion of some experts, caused the re- lease of new gold. Now that the president has embarked on a policy which enables the Reconstruction Finance Corporation to buy at an even higher price, the flow may be even greater. Already there are indications of increased production. Reports of | mining revival come in from all of the gold producing sections of the country. The Picks Get Busy Officials of the bureau Washington anticipate an increase in prdouction. Just how much of an increase there will be they will not predict. But they point to such state- ments as that made by Governor Rolph of California that there is sufficient placer mining ground in his state to furnish subsistence for 300,000 men. Also they point to the fact that heretofore mine production has been gauged by the margin of profit possible at $20.67 an ounce. With the base advanced at the will of the president, and with the RFC in the market for ne ed gold, the incentive for increas- ed production will lure many, Catching SOLr of | i i ; Tampa, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1938. 90 PASSENGERS The Steamer Florida, of the P. and O.
