Instead, the Treasury will spend the gold, and permit the yellow metal to expand the credit base.

NEW YORK, Feb. 14——(AP)—— United States banks could gain up to $400,000,000 more a year to lend to their customers or invest in securities as n. result of changes announced today in Washington, in the Government's "gold steril- ization" fund. Wall Street banking experts agreed.

At least $100,000,000 of money every three months in tlro form of gold coming here from abroad-- assuming the big yellow stream holds to ils levels of the past lcw _vears—eouid reach the United States and become deposits to be lent by United States bankers un- der the announced modification.
