while India has suspended the coin
age of silver. she still uses silver as
her money, and England coins a large
number Of rupees annually for IndIa's

standard II would naturally reduce
still further the price OF silver, and II
Mexico. In spite Of being a large pro-
duoer OF silver, were to discard that
metal as the standard money, II Is not
improbable that India and China might
be led by the same influences TO do the
same thing. While this is only specu-
lation. II Is a possibility that must be
considered
IAN addition of 7OO,0O0,OOO people to
the present gold-using population Of the
world would carry an enormous de-
mand for gold over and above the
