dealings with her. Upon the question.
however, whether the gold standard
should be established at the beginning
or should come after the introduction
o. a uniform NATIONAL currency upon
the silver basis there was some diff
ference Of opinion. The British reso=
luiOns declared that the national cur
rency Of China should consist of silver
coins made full legal tender through
OFT the empire and that as soon as
practicable steps should be taken for
the establishment i'm china of q fixed
relation between the silver unit and
Gold It was explained that if it were
possible as a practical matter to start
with the silver coins on a gold basis
that plan would be best. II vas, how
ever not thought practicable. The
Russian resolutions recited some Of
the difficulties of beginning upon q
gold basis and declared that the
American plan would have orr an
prevail If IT were so amended as to
mean a national silver currency issued
on government account. which should
be given as soon rs practicable a fixed
parity with gold" This is practically
the same as the English expression, ex-
cent that it favors coinage only on
government account. The report of the
Netherlands commission strongly fav-
ored 2 gold parity from the beginning
and declared this TO be the only prac-
ticable method Of obtaining the bene-
fits of a. fixed exchange; but it was
pointed out that care and intelligence
would be required in the administra-
ticn Of such a system. The German
resolutions declared against free coin
age of the silver coins and asserted
that the Chinese government should
take at the beginning Of the reform
all those steps which would allow her
an influence on the rate OF foreign ex-
change" The French report also fav-
ored the system suggested by the com
missions Of Mexico and the United
States.
Thus upon the part of five powers
Germany. France. the Netherlands.
Mexico, and the United States-there
was agreement that the best method
wos TO begin the issue of the new cur
rency at a fixed gold par, while upon
the part Of Great Britain and Russia
there was a disposition to favor begin
ming on a silver basis with the view Of
first supplying the country with a uni
form currency and then giving it, with
in short interval, a fixed gold value.
