times simply confirms and ratifies It. Is
there any real difficulty in understand

The amendment TO the Constitution
introducing the limited liability system
should be adopted. Many States have
It. It Will induce investment in Cali
fornia enterprises and do harm to no
one, for it gives notice to all the world
of creditors when dealing with incorpo-
rated bodies just what the liability Of
each stockhoIder is. California wants
capital to come in and invest in devel
opn1ent of our resources, and this
amendment will aid to that end. In
adopting 1t we will be simply following
In the footsteps OF other States that
have tested the value of permitting cor
pOrate bodies IN mining, irrigation,
business, ETC., to limit the liability Of
stockholders to certain amounts meas
ured by the paid up capital stock.
Senator White in his speech declared
when you increase the volume Of the
medium of exchange Of the world, you
open the channels Of trade and give Ia
Dor something to do" That is not true.
1t Is sounding platitude, moth
ing more. Can anyone on earth prove
that the increase in the volume of
money creates a greater demand for
goods? 1t may increase prices, says the
'Argonaut," but that means that the
price Of each piece Of money has been
reduced, not that the value Of the goods
has increased. That is 80 clear on a
soning can understand 1t.
