R~oosevelt's Letter.

"The White House, Washington,
Nov. II, 1907.-My Dear Mr.. Cortel-
you: have considered your PROPOSE
ton. l approve the issue of the So
600, 900 of Panama bonds, which will
be Immediately available as the basis
for currency. I also approve the issue
of 500, 900, 900, or so much as you
may find necessary, of $50 3-per-cent

that the congress is considering a cur
rency bill which will meet in a per-
manent fashion the needs of the coun-
try, and which l believe will be passed
at an early date after congress con-
venes two weeks hence.
What is most needed just at pres
ent is that our citizens should realize
how fundamentally sound business
conditions in this country are, and
how absurd it is to permit themselves
to get into a panic and create a strin.
gency by boarding their savings, In.
stead of trusting perfectly sound
banks.
There is no particle Of risk In.
volved in letting business take its nat.
ural course, and the people can help
themselves and the country most by
putting back into active circulation
the money they are boarding. The
banks and trust companies are solv-
ent. There is more currency in the
country today than there was a month
ago, when the supply was ample.
Fifty-five million dollars in gold has
been imported and the government
has deposited another $50, 1000, 900.
These are facts; they appeal to the
public to cooperate with us in restor-
ing normal business conditions.
Proper Effort, Result Guaranteed.
THE government will see that the
people do not suffer, if only the people
themselves will act in a normal way.
Crops are good and business condi-
lions are sound, and we should put
the OF we have into circulation at
once to meet the needs of our abound.
ing prosperity. There is no analogy
at all with the way things were in
1893. On November 80 of that year
there was in the treasury but SCI 900,
600 in gold. On November IA of this
year there was in the treasury 1904,
600, 900 of gold. Ten years g the
circulation per capita was 1929; II
is o s33.23. The steps that you
nov take, the ability of the govern
ment to back them up, and the fact
that not a particle of risk is involved
therein, give the fullest guarantee o.
the sound condition of II people and
the sound condition of our treasury.
"All that our people have to do nov
is to go ahead with their normal bus
mess in a normal fashion and the
whole difficulty disappears; and thi!
end will be achieved at once If eacl
man will act as he normally does act
and as the real conditions of thu
