The assets are swollen by the adj
dition of unissued certificates of all
sorts to the amount of SIG, 1913, 1872.
SO, which assets, however, if assets
at all, are in no sense worth more
than so much paper until they have
been issued for their face value of
gold, silver or currency, as the case
NAV be. Said certificates are also
included in the liabilities, thus per-
petrating a double fraud upon the
public by making the people believe
CD that the treasury assets are
greater than they really are, and CD
that the circulation of certificates is
larger than it is.
