After discussion which continued for
several days, the chamber of deputies
of Peru adopted the gold standard by a
majority of one vote. The plan for a
gold standard was sent to the chamber
some time ago, after it had been APP
proved by the president and cabinet.

possible solution to the financial
troubles which beset Peru on every
side. There was long fight over the
question in the chamber, the govern
ment supporters arraying themselves
unanimously in favor of the gold stand
