The issue of Albanian gold has now become a matter on the agenda. For some time now, Mr. Xhon Mekoni’s government has been making us turn yellow with worry over the removal of our treasure. What work is there for us to do this month? Mr. Blerim Çela, chairman of the state commission, is leading this important operation. According to the information available so far, the gold taken from the State Bank has been placed in a very safe location. The team charged with discovering the place where this treasure is located consists of the gentlemen: ZEF BROZI, chairman of the Parliamentary Commission for the Verification of Figures; FERIT HOTI, chairman of the Committee for Culture; BASHKIM FINO[?], from the Ministry of Finance; and other specialists. According to reliable sources, the operation began after several days of intensive searches. In this context, former officials of the State Bank and other people who may know something about the gold’s whereabouts have been questioned. Other sources state that the operation has also received help from foreign experts. In any case, the first results appear encouraging. At least that is what was said yesterday in the commission’s offices. After the location is discovered, a full inventory of the amount of gold is expected to be carried out, and then a decision will be made on how it will be managed.

In the next issues of the newspaper we will get to know this connection more broadly, while below we give a brief outline of these new problems. It seems that starting from September 1991 and continuing through the other months of that same year, you have been witnesses to the passages of the dragonore[?] platoons across the Albanian-Greek border. A group of secret business agencies, servants of a discredited autonomy with the release of our customs. Someone has honored enough to start from the socialist Albanian government in Tirana. Are foreign firms trying to do trade with us through smuggling? Or is it about a secret government working behind the scenes? Hypocrisy and deceit will not remain undiscovered. Do these have links with a certain group in the military industry? The “export” of this goods? LUAN PËNCILI

WHY DIDN’T Mr. ADI VALITA GET ELECTED FOREIGN MINISTER IN THE GOVERNMENT OF CHIEF A. NCA, BERI?

During this year, the newspaper «Koha jonë», immediately after the liberal article and in support of Prime Minister A. Meksi’s policy, has been in favor of peaceful, confrontational and reformist solutions. This line of «Koha Jonë» has found support among the democratic youth, which has distributed it. Since this external opinion had the name «KONFRONTOLLIAN-CIA», it has been assessed by more than one observer as an important force in Albanian developments. The rule of law, a strong legal state, needs a free and independent press. This is also what «Koha jonë» aims for, and along this path it has managed to create a group of new supporters. But now we have also been struck by the bread fever of the state, of the Ministry of Finance and by the chief in the press of the country. «Koha jonë» has come out, not with special bread.

QUOTE OF THE YEAR THIS YEAR WITH SUPER-AUTO... OF THE TIME 500, armored, is full of extremist socialists in such a way that it transforms Tirana into a passenger figure [?]. These are concrete of themselves, of the futures of socialism with the center for the old minister who has and with this keeps and governs and makes it. United of England and Danes, writes that [!] abroad they are quite calm. From 1991 until now, the increase of the year 1991 and the quiet government that makes it in government with the minister of the under-ministers has gone up to 1 billion and 11 million dollars. All this is known by the wise authors. Under it there is also the «KON-TROLLI» of order. EMIL HURENOLLI[?] IN LONDON London — 40 governments has written the responsibility of the American «CIA», and has published it in its own language in his file in Tirana. This file was said in a report last Monday, on 10 September. According to the document, it concerns a statement dated 30 September 1991. Last week some of the state decision hundred for an inspector of the so-called «STOP from 1[?] the courtyard of the Presence». Jatë decision some of the hundred write about a journalist of «STOP from 5[?] courtyard» and the author of the challenge «Suspensë». A part of the article is devoted to the reaction of the OBE district to an incident in Ugli[?]. Beyond that, former Prime Minister Aleksandër Meksi has again remained at the center of attention. Perhaps our customs. Perhaps some figure. Near the ministry center. Or perhaps some deputy minister. Hypocrisy and deceit do not stop. Many say that this is a scene to divert attention from bigger issues. LUAN PËNCILI The West? AND BRYTA NVLERTA
