HOW BURIED GOLD MAY SAVE
Us.

OF late years mankind has been
suffering from a flood of gold. What
ever other causes have contributed to
the soaring cost of living-extrava
gance, high tariffs, the extortions of
trusts-it is conceded that the cheap
ening dollar due to the abundance
of the yellow metal which has be-
come the worlds standard of value
has made other values seem nigh in
comparison.
This great increase in the output
of gold, with its deranging effect
upon commodity prices, has even led
certain wise men to advocate an
agreement among the leading nations
of the earth to rig up what may be
called a "compensating dollar"-a
unit of value which shall move up or
down as the gold tide ebbs or flows.
Which is pretty much the same thing,
under another name, as was that once
popular, later derided, slogan of our
fathers, international bimettalism.
But now comes one of the worlds
high authorities. Sir George Paish of
the London Statist, with guess that
maybe a curious human custom in
one of the out-of-the-way places of
the earth may soon suffice to fix mat
ters without the need of an interna-
tional agreement.
In India it has long been the habit
of many natives to bury treasures in
the soil. But recently the habit has
begun to spread. 1t is estimated that
during the present year at least
10O,000,000 of gold coin or orna-
ments will have been as effectually
withdrawn from circulation by hiding
as IL tossed into the sea.
Already the hiding of gold in Brit
ish India amounts in value to almost
a third of the output of gold in Brit
ish South Africa, the worlds mos
prolific present source of the much
Soubhb niSldi' anu IL 10 iuSi edoiHe
so much more rapidly than the gold
yield that Sir George is inclined to
believe the worst OF the gold flood is
over.
What bit of irony it would be il
our rescue from high prices should
come about not as a result of civiliza.
tion's intelligence, but as an unpre.
meditated by-product of backward
races superstition.

Ancient customs are going to
smash in Washington these days.
When President Wilson's family de-
cided that they could get on without
that grand parade, known as the in
augural ball. there was a mighty
shuffling of feet among the elite at
the capital city. Now it is announced
that there will be no New Years re-
ception, and society is amazed.
Surely those precious creatures who
have no other occupation than play
ing society have a right to be
alarmed over the situation. If mat
ters continue as started there will be
little left of society" But we sus-
pect that the country will get on.
even if society" does go on the hum
mer. What this country needs is a
lot more sense, and we are concerned
in a mighty small way about recep-
tons and balls.
