Rep. Rivers Will Still
Persist for Increase
In Price of Gold to $70.00
The President gave a master
ful summary of the State of the
Nation as pertains to both domes
tic and foreign affairs. The one
point on which I was disappoint
ed was the President’s broad
statement that “we shall not take
any action to increase the dollar
price of gold from $35.00 an
ounce.” My bill, however, to in
crease the price of gold to $70.00
per ounce is specifically limited
to payments by the Treasury for
newly mined gold. Extracted with
in the United States, without al
tering our settlement of interna
tional balances on the basis of
$35.00 per ounce of gold. Also
the redemption of foreign dollar
credits in gold on the basis of
$35.00 per ounce would be con
tinued.
I believe that my bill, or simi
lar legislation, may toe distin
guished as an effort to solve the
purely domestic problem of our
gold miners with consequent in
crease in the flow of gold to our
Treasury, without undermining
the free world’s international
monetary system based upon the
American dollar, I shall continue
to persist along this line. !
Kennedy Plans to
Accept Dinner Invitations
Among Newsmen Friends
WASHINGTON UP)—The White
House said President Kennedy
plans to accept dinner invitations
occasionally from his friends
among newsmen.
The matter came up at a news
conference in connection with a
dinner the President and Mrs. Ken
nedy attended Monday night at
the home of Rowlands Evans Jr.,
a Washington reporter for the
New York Herald Tribune. Ken
nedy and Evans have been friends
for some time.
Frank Holeman of the New
York Daily News asked Pierre
Salinger, White House Press Sec
retary, whether Salinger saw
anything unfair about Kennedy’s
accepting dinner invitations from
individual newsmen.
When Salinger replied he did
not, Holeman asked with a
chuckle:
“Do you have any idea how
the rest of us can get on the so
cial list?”
“As I have said before,” Sal
inger replied, “the President does
have some friends in the Press
Corps and he is going to have
dinner with them from time to
time.”

Resolution Designed to
Give State Agencies More
Program Flexibility
JUNEAU UP) — A concurrent
resolution designed to give state
agencies more program flexibility
was introduced in the Senate
Monday by two Democrats and
two Republicans.
The resolution asks that the Fi
nance Committee of the House
and the Senate, to the maximum
extent possible, provide for lump
sum appropriations as opposed to
line item appropriations.
The four sponsors said state
government programs cannot “be
efficiently administered when of
ficials are so unduly restricted by
excessive monetary controls and
limitations as to remove all man
agerial flexibility and preroga
tive.”
The resolution was authored by
Sens. Howard Pollock (R-Anchor
age), Pearse Walsh (D-Nome), B.
J. Logan (D-Cordova) and Brad
Phillips (R-Anchorage).
GRATEFUL FOR SNOW . . .
NEW YORK OP)—Nereida Rod
riquez is one New Yorker who
is grateful for last weekend’s
snowstorm.
Nereida, 16, fell seven stories
from a kitchen window of her
West 148th St. home yesterday—
and landed in a four-foot snow
drift.
She was hospitalized with a
possible spine fracture, possible
rib fractures and a cut on her
right leg.
Doctors said that if it hadn’t
been for the snow, she almost cer
tainly would have been killed.
In Colonial America, families
usually gave a mourning ring to
a preacher for conducting a fu
neral. . . A minister could meas
ure his lifetime popularity by the
number of such rings he received
1 . . . some collected thousands.
