he Experience of France.
In the year 1903 France established her
legal ratio at Is 1-2 to l, and tha5 ratio has
remained unchanged to this day. For the
sake of the younger members of my au-
dience / will explain that that ratio of
Is 1-2 to l means that at the mint Is 1-2
ounces of pure silver were regarded as
exactly equal in value to l ounce of pure
god.
Now let us see the consequences in,
France of fixing the above ratio. For so
years after 1903, there were only eight
years in which the actual commercial ra-
ito was not greater than 10 1-2, and they
all came before 1920 In other words, be-
tween 1920 and 1851 there was not single
year in which an ounce of pure gold was
not worth more in the market than Is Ia
ounces of pure silver. The government
said by the fixing of its legal ratio, IF you
who have gold to sell will bring it to the
mint we will give you there for every
ounce of pure gold the equivalent of Is 1-2
ounces of pure silver. But in the open
market man coula get for each ounce
of gold more than Is 1-2 ounces of pure
silver; that is, man would get more for
his gold in the market than he could get
at the mint. Whe.e, then, would he nat
urally dispose of He naturally took it
where he could get the most for it; he sold
MS goId as DuTn n ana ana not nave IL
coined for use money. On the other
hand man having silver to dispose of
found the mint of France more profitable
than the market, He, therefore, took his
silver to the mint and had it coined into
money and it circulat "a as such. Between
1920 and 1852, though the minis of France
