Silver has fallen to the lowest level yet
known, and there is no demand for it in
London. as India is said to be receiving
all of the metal she needs frem China.

theory that prosperity depends on a rise
in the price of silver. 1t furthermore
emphasizes the need of an international
agreement for a return to bimetallism.
We cannot undertake by ourselves to lift
the falling metal to the level of gold at
