The gold in the treasury keeps in
active circulation as currency the Ger
tifcates issued against it and moreover
S346,6S1,0lS in United States notes
and SS0,000,000 in treasury notes, OF
over sl40,000,O00 more than it's owr
value.
The question may well be considered
whether the United States notes may
not properly be turned by congress
into gold certificates. They have
much that quality already and the
change could be gradually made as the
supply of the yellow metal takes on
greater proportions.
The demands of the people for notes
of small denominations have surprised
the closest students of the currency.
The act of March II, 1900, makes II
the duty of the secretary of the treas
ury to maintain the parity of value OF
all forms of money issued or coined by
the United States with the gold stand
ard defined and fixed by that law. This
parity has been and is now easily
maintained and all kinds of govern
ment money are exchangeable with
each other.
The inflow of gold, permitting the
free issue OF gold certificates of $2C
and upwards. is the key to this main
tenance of parity and interchangeable
ity of all kinds of government money
On the other hand small denomina
tions, including silver coin, are con.
stantly in demand for the myriad trans
actions of retail trade and the cur
rent uses Of rural communities, as vel
as for pay rolls in furnaces and fac
tories and harvest fields.
