Much Money Spent In Timberlng Mines

1t is u well known fact that there is
a large amount of real wealth being

sentcd in the aggregate spent for mine

properties. The total represents an

The Current Gold Initiation

There must always be u money basis
for credit, and the larger the basis the
larger the credit structure possible.
While IT Is true that the credit struC.
turc may temporarily expand beyond
its normal ratio to the money basis on
which it rests. yet even this abnormal
expansion of deposits is always inuugur
atcd by an expansion Of money. 1t is
probable that deposits in general are
now expanding more rapidly than their
money basis. But the source Of this de
post imitation is money initiation. and
the source Of money imitation is gold in
