18th September, Sir Stafford Cripps,
announced the Government's decision
to devalue the pound sterling in terms of the dollar.
The new
middle rate, which became operative immediately, is $2.80 to the
pound, as compared with the previous rate of $4.03.
The change
necessitated an adjustment in the official price of gold.
The U. S.
price of $35 per ounce, at the exchange of $2.80, gives a dead parity
of 250/-, and the new Bank of England buying price, after allow¬
ing for the necessary shipping expenses, etc., was fixed at 248/per fine ounce, compared with 172s/3d. per fine ounce previously;
-the price at which the Bank of England will purchase sovereigns
was, at the same time, raised from 40s/3d. to 58/- per sovereign.
In returns issued up to and including 14th September, 1949, the
amount of gold held in the Issue Department of the Bank of England
remained unaltered at £247,833, valued at 172s/3d. per fine ounce;
in the return of 21st September, 1949, the amount is shown as
£356.823, which represents the revaluation of the holding at the
