World gold purchases impact on currency values
Economists explained that if the U S government buys gold domestically the effect on world gold prices and the dollar and pound exchange rates would mirror a direct government purchase. American firms would exchange dollars for pounds or francs abroad, depreciating the dollar, with RFC notes converting to dollars and then back into currency. The scenario could raise the world price toward the U S figure or trigger large yen shipments, while in Paris the dollar fell 4.5 cents against the franc to about 14.0968 francs per dollar as a holiday limited trading.
