AS it is now, he said, he believes in
central bank with powers to issue credit
currency on much the same lines of the
Reichsbank of Berlin. For the present,
he thought, we might try some plan as
simple as this:
Permit national banks to issue bond
secured circulating notes, in the same
way as the law at present provides, up
TO 80 per cent of their capital, with a
further issue of like amount of notes
based only upon the assets of the bank
and bearing a moderate tax, which will
go into a safety fund for the security of

other men. There was found in the cell
a rope of blankets, strips of apron, pieces
