After more than half a century's eX-

Russia has found that she cannot keep
the pace of other great nations with q
silver standard and has therefore
changed to the gold standard.
Silver will still be freely used in the
Russian currency as it is in the cur

standard, and 140, 100000 ounces of s.i-

of about one-fourth Of the Russian
