Previously, American miners have been permitted to sell their newly mined metal at the world price. R.

F. C. to Buy Gold In the future it is proposed that the government through the Reconstruction Finance corporation will buy, at prices slightly above the world price level, all the gold offered. The effect would be to raise gold prices and indirectly raise commodity prices through a cheapening of the dollar. Through sales and purchases of gold the government could raise or lower the purchasing power of the dollar almost at will, independent of forign influences such as might develop through the manipulating for instance, of speculators or of the billion dollar British stabilzation fund by which the fluctuations in the pound are regulated.

The dollar would be cheapened to the extent of the rise in the government-fixed gold price and commodity prices would be expected to rise in direct proportion to the fall in the dollar if the administration should take this means to raise prices.

FRENCH PREMIER QUITS; BUDGET NOT BALANCED: Daladier's Plan to Cut Civil Service Pay Defeated by 329 to 241 Vote By RALPH H. HEINZEN (United Press Staff Correspondent) Paris, Oct. Albert Lebrun consulted political leaders at the Elysee palace today, seeking a premier capable of guiding France through one of the portentious phases of her recent history.

A strong government, sure of an adequate majority to force through parliament a rigorous economy program and to pursue a firm diplomatic policy in view of the disarmament crisis and Germany's mand for armament equality, was regarded as urgently necessary. Edouard Daladier, radical Socialist premier who had headed the government since Jan. 31, resigned at 3:30 a. m. today after a defeat 329 to 241, in the chamber of deputies on his proposal to cut civil service pay between 3 and 9 per cent, to balance the budget.

To replace his government Lebrun sought a coalition cabinet, if possible composed of the center parties with representation from the moderate left wing groups. The president first called into conference Jules Jeanneney, president of the senate, and Ferdinand Bouisson, president of the chamber. He was understood to have told them that promp solution of the political problem was vital because of danger to the currency if foreign speculators attacked the franc because of the budget deficit. Lebrun hoped he would be able to get either Albert Sarraut, a left Democrat and minister of marine in Daladier's cabinet, or Camille Chautemps, radical Socialist and Daladier's minister of interior, to form a coalition or concentration cabinet. Failing then, there were several names on his list Daladier himself, still the strongest political figure in the absence of his party leader, Herriot, recuperating from a critical illness; Pierre Laval, former premier well known United States for his visit to President Hoover: Francois Petri, former Budget minister, and Georges Bonnet, Daladier's finance minister.

Whatever the solution, a phase in political history seemed ended--the dominating coalition of radical Socialists and Socialists governed the country since Herriot formed hig last government in June, 1932.

MASTER RETAIL PRICE FIXING CODE OPPOSED Enforcement of Agreement Forbidding Sales Under Cost Faces NRA Administration By JULIUS FRANDSEN (United Press Staff Correspondent) Washington, Oct. lines for a new fight over retail price control were being drawn today in trade circles and the NRA. Far from disposing of the issue, a master retail code promulgated yesterday by the president to take effect next Monday seemed merely to have defined the limits within which the controversy now will be fought to a finish. Includes Labor Allowance Knocking out an original provision to ban sales of goods at less than wholesale cost plus 10 per cent, the code forbids sales at less than cost with declaration that "the selling price of articles to the consumer should include an allowance for actual wages of store labor, to be fixed and published from time to time by the trade authority." Stores with five or fewer employes in towns of less than 2,500 are exempt not only from this but from all other code provisions.

The issue affecting all other stores now is how much of the labor costs the trade authority will decide should be included in the prices below which goods cannot be gold. Fight for 10 Per Cent Provision Those within the NRA who fought to the last for the cost plus 10 per cent plan expressed confidence that the mark-up to be recommended by the trade outhority would be close to that figure. They believed it would prove more acceptable when presented, as it now will be, as a mark-up to cover part of actual labor costs. The trade authority of three members is expected to be appointed quickly. It will have the assistance of a national retail trade council composed of members of each division of retail trade.

NRA officials favoring a substantial minimum mark-up expressed belief that these agencies, would 1 se no time in the necessary formulae aS most retailers are anxious to strengthen the "stop loss" provisions of the code without delay. They anticipated that probably half a dozen markups of varying percentages would be worked out for varying types of stores in which labor costs differ. Those opposing mandatory markups of prices above wholesale costs contended that development of formulae covering labor costs was likely to prove so complex and controversial that it would be 8 long time before anything along this line was done. Opposition Claims Victory Despite the provision for markups to cover part of store wages, the consumers' advisory board and other agencies which fought the cost plus 10 per cent they had scored a notable victory. The original provision, they pointed out, would have imposed a policy on all stores and all goods, The code as signed assures that the markup may be made different for various types of stores and may be changed easily.

There is no expectation that any markup ordered will include all labor costa. For the estimated 1,110,000 stores of all kinds in the nation last year, commerce department calculations show that their payrolls equalled 15.5 per cent of their net sales. The percentages were 13.2 for food, 14.4 for general merchandise, 17.5 for apparel and 20 for furniture, as compared with the eliminated code provision which would have forbidden sales at less than cost with an allowance of at least 10 per cent to help cover exFor all stores in 1932 penses. expenses aside from the invoice cost of goods amounted to 29.9 per cent of net sales. Face Enforcement Problem In addition to the price battle, NRA faced a problem of enforcing the retail code.

Next Monday it will become binding regardless of whether the stores signed the temporary Blue Eagle agreement. Recovery officials conceded there would be a of proprobably, the outset from stores that have been out of sympathy with the Blue Eagle.
