srThree policies are before the Ameri-

on the gold reserve in theory as il
might in fact. Another is silver mono

notes rest on silver and let gold be
matter of commodity contracts. The
rhird is to adopt free coinage of boti
gold and silver at a bimetallic ratio
and base the paper currency on both
The third policy is what nearly the
