MONEY FAMINE.

Money is past, finding out. Its
manipula,ions are the marvel Of the
unintiated. With most Of us il is
painfully scarce. though we are
told that the production OF gold
during the past fifteen years has
has been unprecedented and that a
flood Of the yellow metal has been
dctrimcnt rather than help to
business.
Yet yesterday call money was
quoted in New York at per cent,
a rate OF interest that indicates cx-
IRENE scarcity. For this condition
two chief reasons are assigned: One
is that the demand from the in
terror for money 10 move crops has
been unprecedented and is draining
New York OF all its ready cash. The
second reason is one that would
not occur to the lay mind. Since
India went on gold basis. the
people OF that country have begun
to hoard gold as in former times
they boarded silver
The oriental has little use for
banks, and, as money is secured, i,
is hidden away, such Of il as is not
converted into jcwclry. Let it be
understood that the silver and gold
bangles and armlets and anklcis are
not so much for gaudy display. as
we sometimes imagine. II is the
oricntars substitute ior savings
bank and a safety depsit box II
IS the way THE people OF the east
lay aside resources, for rainy day.
In Indian, Egypt and Syria, il is
estimated that about S90.0OO,00O
worth of the yellow metal goes out
OF circulation annually. Such sum
must tell on the worlds supply Of
the basie money metal, and bank
ers have just come to realize that
year by year the orientals are with
drawing larger and larger sums
from circulation. fact that must
be reckoncd with at no distant date.
