be that they think that we won't feel we're
paying so much for the increased cost Of
living il we use smaller sized bills. Maybe
they think one very big Bill in the White
House is worth two in the wallet.
Secretaries or the treasury always like
TO come to the bat with some new and
happy thought to make people talk about
them. Otherwise there is nothing to their
lob but to look wise and sign the reports
to the president. Not long ago secretary
was clamoring for elastic currency. Prob
ably some lofty financiers knew what elias
tic currency was, but most of us low brows
thought he meant the kind you could snap
a rubber band around.
And now comes this small-b ills-for-s small
people scheme. I'm convinced that people
are less interested In the shrinkage OF the
length and width of their rolls than in the
thickness. IT'S few enough Of them we get
and when we get paper money we want
our paper moneys worth. We like TO look
It full In its honest face, to lovinly pat its
broad back and to hold It up TO the light
TO look at its silk interior decorations. Just
because the purchasing power OF dollar
has shrunk like a cheap summer suit after
rain. is 1t any reason why this admin
istration should advertise the fact with it's
paper?
And not content with making our old
friend Bill bant, they suggest different sized
| bills for different denominations. Assist
ance! II they are TO be made in proportion,
with, say, the ten spot as basis, i sup
pose wealthy persons would have to wear
hundred dollar bills as belts or sashes, !

there are said TO be such things-being
rolled up like bolt OF dress goods-and,
coming down to the cares Of the common
people, imagine mistaking a good old one

ers, Mitchell and Morrison in con-
nection with the case, the Buck
company abandons it; but the
litigating organization which has
supported the Buck company
financially, announces that the
litigation will, nevertheless, not be
dropped. We hope that this an
nouncement is true. For the case
involves more than a personal or
business question, more than a
labor question. It involves the
right Of judges to issue injunctions
against publications in advance OF
publication, and thereby to get a

acquiring power, in the guise Of
proceedings for contempt Of court,
to try, without juries. the lawful

for contempt Of court could be
