A LitTLe CURRENCY CATECHiSm.
IL the simple argument that carries
the nbst striking conviction after all,
and tie following currency catechism,"
from The columns Of the Chicago Times
HERALD, Is worth preserving.
.. What Is the whole body Of cur
rency LOT the United States to-day:
4. Paper, 1915, 600 900; silver, $780,
000, Ob; gold, sGl2, 100000.
q. What Is the existing money stand
ard of the country?
A. Gold, by means OF which all the
silver and all the paper are worth 100
cents 10 the dollar.
q. What would be the effect IL we
should abandon the existing gold stand
ard?
A. All the gold would leave the
county in accordance with the never
questIbned law that superior money
will NIT remiin in country where an
inferi|r money is the standard. Silver
ties Admit that gold is sixteen times
more 'laluable than silver. That Is what
| the ''rttio 10 to L. means. In truth, to-
day g,Ild IL thrty-two times more valua-
bic than silver.
q. What amount Of money would
be thuE Withdrawn from the country If
the silEer standard should be substituted
for thd gold Standard
A. Six hundred and twelve million
dollari, contracting the currency TO that
amounk and Gripping the country ac-
cordinEly.
Q. IF the silver standard were sub
stituteh for the existing gold standard,
what 'gould be the effect on the S6l0, 000,-
900 OF kilyer now worth 100 cents TO the
dollarl
A. rhe entire quantity Of silver dol
lars Would be worth their weight in sill
yer pei ounce, which varies from week
TO week like the price Of wheat, and the
immediate effect would be to reduce the
s6l0 ON, 900 to S305, 200, 900, the present
value III silver per ounce In the coins,
thus Contracting the currency OF the
countrt To this additional amount, max
ing t3tal contraction of S9l1 ,OOO, 900.
q. Khat would be the effect on the
paper ID our currency II we should SUBJ
stitute The silver standard for the exist
ing golH standard!
a. ne Slio,VVU.OVV VI paper, w udy
worth 100 cents in the dollar on the exist
ing golh standard, would at once decline
TO 80 ctlnts in the dollar on the silver
standard, based Oh the price Of silver to-
day, the immediate effect being to re-
duce THE value of the paper now In the
currently to s237 800 600.
Q. d y abandoning the existing gold
standalH for the silver standard, what
then wluld be the first net result!
A. The loss to the country OF 81, l5i,-
SOC. OOO| every dollar worth 100 cents by
reason III the existing gold standard.
q. What do you deduce from this:
A. That we need all the money We
have arb that we want every dollar to
be worth 100 cents.
O. How can we keep all the money
we havJ and keep every dollar worth 100
centsy
