Who Benefits From The Gold Standard? 1 BY THE AMERICAN ECONOMIC FOUNDATION NEW YORK, NEW YORK June 5,1933, the privilege of owning gold "coin was taken away front the American citizen. At the time that the law was passed, the statement was made that the working man had lost nothing because he could never own much gold anyway. There was also the vague impression that taking all gold from private citizens weakened the "power of great'wealth" because gold is "rich man's money." The reason behind the law was freely admitted by the Government: the Administration wanted to raise prices (and the depression) by cheapening the money, and if the people had been allowed to buy gold, their purchases would have interfered with this process. As everybody remembers, there were very few mourners at the funeral service of the citizen's traditional right to convert his paper money into" gold, and those who did raise their voices in sorrow were branded as "reactionaries" aijd "tools of great a matter of cold fact, on that day the American working man lost his greatest protection against tyranny. Ours is a government of checks and balances so set up that no government nor any department of government can get too much power.

The greatest of these checks and balances was the power of tne citizen to turn in his paper money and demand gold when he thought that the Government might inflate the currency and thus lower the value of his savings. By drawing gold the citizen could draw shut the public purse strings and "cut off the politi-' cian's The details of just how the gold standard stops inflation have no place in this article, but the result is that the quantity of gold held by Government the quantity of paper money that the Government can issue. So by drawing gold, the citizen could force a reduction in the amount of paper money. IUT as we said before, very few citizens 'seemed excited about giving up gold because the socialist economists in England had "discovered" that inflation was all right; that public debt was good and not bad as had been believed for 5,000 years. Under this new "formula" for prosperity, all the Government had to do to put everybody on easy street was issue more and more money and think up enough ways of spending it.

The Government didn't actually print all of this new money in the form of bills: it caused the commercial checking banks to accept LO.U.'s of the Federal Government and issue checking accounts against which the Treasury Department could write checks. Most of the new money, therefore, was put into circulation in the form of Government checks, but to all practical purposes, it "might as well be paper money. During the 17 years following 1933, the money supply of the United States increased from $41 billion to $174 billion. As a result the U. S.

dollar in 1950 boaght only one-half as much as it did in 1933. IHIS brings us to the most important of the two causes of inflation, namely, an increase in the people's spending money when there is no increase in things to spend it on. (The other cause is panic buying.) The production goods and services did go up (about but not nearly as rapidly as did the money supply. This made the extra money worthless; in fact, worse than worthless, because it reached into the pocket of and robbed all thrifty citizens of about half the value of their savings. We don't know of any rich people who have suffered any great hardship from the 500 dollar, but we know of millions of working people whose plans for a secure old age have been blown sky-high.

Had they been able to buy gold coin when they saw their danger, this need not have happened to them: they could have forced the Government to balance its budget. It might be asked whether or not the holding of noninterest-bearig gold would not have deprived them of tfee interest and dividends on their savings. The answer is no because they would not have had to hold the gold; the fact that they could at any time they wanted to would have been enough to keep the Government thrifty. IOME people claim that the United States is Fstill on the gold standard: they point out that we are on the gold bullion standard. What this actually means is that there are a lot of gold bars that can be bought by foreigners (for any reason) and by American citizens, if those citizens' reasons for wanting them satisfy the U.

S. Treasury Department as being good reasons. But the protection of the value of one's savings is not considered a good reason. This means that under the gold bullion standard, the most important protection afforded by the gold standard no longer exists. It means that the working man's only legal weapon against what amounts to confiscation of his savings has been taken away.

It means that the purchasing power of all bank accounts, insurance annuities, and bonds is at the seldom-tender mercies of a manipulated money supply. HO then would benefit most from a return to the gold coin standard: the rich man or the working man? The handful of rich people usually "save" most of their money by investing it directly into things that increase in value during periods of inflation. The working man, as a rule, does not take the risks that go with investment and about aH he can do is pray that there will be no inflation. Without the right to demand gM, and considering the huge Government expenditures that are just around the corner, there is little chance that his prayers will be answered. Gold is the working man's best friend.
