The effective repealer of the Gold Clause Resolution of 1933 is the Act of Oct. 28, 1977, PL 95-147, 91 Stat. 1229. It revives gold clauses in contracts prior to the 1933 Resolution, and it permits new contracts - those made after Oct. 28, 1977 - to contain gold clauses, but it does not disturb the statement of the 1933 Resolution to the effect that public policy is against gold clauses in contracts made between 1933 and 1977.
