SNOW WILL HELP OUT
SUMMER WATER SUPPLY
Weather Man Thinks That With Shows
to Come City VIII Have
Plenty OF Water.

The snow OF Friday night and early
Saturday morning undoubtedly has done
q great deal TO increase the chances for
good supply OF water in Salt Lake next
summer.
This is the opinion OF a. II Thiessen.
director OF the Salt Lake office of the
United States weather bureau. Director
rhcssen saws that while he has no re-
ports as TO the extent of the present snow
In the mountains he believes IT is deeper
than II was at this time last year and
with few more storms, which undouht-
edly will come In the rest of this month
and February, the chances for plenty OF
water next summer are good
At the end of December the outlook was
not promising. AT that time the snow in
the mountains was much below normal,
but the storms since then probably have
raised the fall 10 above normal Thies-
sen says, however that he will not have
anr accurate information on this subject
until the first Of February, al which time
his snowfall reports Will be received from
the mountain stations,
In Salt Lake City the precipitation for
1911 is IL OF an Inch above normal, but
that cannot be used as a gauge to de-
termine the extent OF the fall IN the
mountains.

Coleman Gives Views.
J. r. Coleman, formerly general
manager of the Newhouse interests in
Utah and now engaged III mining in
Mexico with Salt Lake associates,
says:
''It has always seemed to me that
the only basis or foundation of actual
money is too rigid for commercial use in
our advanced state Of society. The
precious metal basis suited the world
very we'll In former times and was
abundant enough when people pre-
ferred to own material property in
stead of the actual visible units of
money for which they might exchange
it.
Nowadays, each unit of money,
treasury notes, bank notes and what
not are based son actual existing gold
bullio The inconsistency Of this
basis is the fact that the actual amount
of gold existing or produced bears no
positive or vital or definitely varying
relation to other material wealth or to
business or commercial needs. and
worse than that, the quantity produced
is absolutely matter Of chance.
'1 The broadest view would commend
fiat monew under government control
as the ideal, but society is not yet suf-
practical
Next Best Basis.
"The next best basis has ALWAYS
seemed to me to be the actual material
possessions Of the people-their homes,
their railroads, their mills, in fact, ali
the material wealth existing in the
whole country. A method for putting
units of money based on this ultimate
foundation into circulation would be
the difficult problem to solve. Sen
ator Aldrich IS commission has done
this, 1t practically adopts the mate
rial possessions of the whole country
as the basis of the circulating medium
Of exchange, but has added far more
advanced and wise view by recon-
mending the issue of practical money
upon purely commercial paper which
embraces personal, mental and moral
responsibility. together with the actu-
al existence Of property of the coun.
try. ] am thoroughly delighted with
the renort of the commission and be.
lIeve it 10 be the logical solution TO
the whole currency problem.''
