That is there will be the greatest amount OF
money in circulation that the country has ever
seen Money will appear like magic from Ola

and we shall go ahead upon the direct lines
Of prosperity. Money will flow from Ehgidhu ~

Is needed Is a restoration Of confidence and the
surety of a sound and stable financial system
That will be settled by the overwhelming cleo

fitted by it.
