EX-SECRETARY FAIRCHILD emphatic
ally answers mo- TO the question "Will
not the legal tender quality maintain at
par an unlimited amount of silyer?" The
reasons he give are to US seemingly un-
answerab!, Legal tender has repeatedly
failed to maintain the value of money,
and is, therefore, not entitled to conf
dence that it can now do SO. He adds:
Will not the declaration of theintention on
the part of the Government to maintain the
parity OF the coins maintain that parity? No!
1t will not. The United States could, of
course sell its bonds or tax the people and
use the proceeds indefinitely to redeem and
store silver certificates. and thus could keep
a certain amount OF silver money in ctrcula-
ton ut par; but it could not put all of that
redeemed money into circulation al par unless
the people had use for il at pan, land the fact
that the Government WAS 1orced 10 tax its
resources and credit to redeem any portion Of
our money would be demonstration that
the people had not use for the whole ofit.

sensible to alldangers tha:: nic:sace us, we
have every reason for inlprossing upon
the mind of youth the truths of the ma
TONS history and the grandeur of her
destiny, and for implanting in the hearts
of the oncoming generation the senti
ments out of which spring the living
growth of patriotic devotion and impulse,
and unwavering faith in the destiny of
the greatest republic of the earth.
Let us teach our youth, not only to-day
but every day, that in them resides the
strength of the American nation; that
they are each sovereigns, governing and
governed, by virtue of the sublimest of
political sentiments, that the right to gov
ern springs from the full consent of the
governed. Let us teach them that out of
this sovereignty, and inseparable from it,
arise duties and obligations, neglect Of
which is morally criminal and person
ally dishonorable; that while upon each
are bestowed inestimable privileges, upon
each devolves the gravity of duty:-doing
in the political concerns of the nation.
Let US teach our youth and emphasize
it with the noisy manifestations of the
day that to the American Union, in which.
they are kings, is committed the greatest
problems of civilization, and the most
stupendous political achievements; tasks
that involve the working out of the pro-

by arbitration, discomfort by even justice,
and fair reward for all right effort, and
doubt and fear by perfect trust and faith
in the perpetuity of the American re-
public.
