THE GOVERNMENT
 GOLD HOLDINGS.

(Ex-Secretary A. Riatt Andrew in the
 July Yale Review.)
 It sometimes happens that with the lapse of time and with changed condI- ttons, inf1rrn1t1es, long left untreated, cure themselves; and so it has been with the one-tiIne botherSome green back. Twenty years ago, when the outstanding greenbacks amounted to twice the gold holdings of the Treas ury and to much more than half of the country's entire gold stock, there was abundant reason for anxiety on account of their continued circulation. The situation is utterly different now. Gold has accumulated in the Treas ury beyond the widest dreams of avarice'' of the Nineties. From less than 200 millions in the middle Nine ties, the Treasury's gold holdings have grown to approximately 1,25O millions to-day; and the estimated gold stock of the country has increased from 500 to more than 1.S00 millions (despite the fact that the Director of the Mint in 1907 reduced the estimate for gold in circulation by 135 millions as com pared with the basis of previous yearsO.
 each year a relatively less important element in our currency system, an element of ever less and less potency for harm. Doubtless the absolute amount of outstanding greenbacks has diminished considerably through loss and destruction during fifty years, and is to-day far less than the $346,OOO,- 900 issued during the Civil War and still carried as an obligation on the government books. Yet, taking the greenbacks at the full total of their original and unretired issue, they now fall short by 300 millions of the Treas ury's holdings of gold, while in 1894 and 1895 they exceeded those hold ings by fully 200 millions. With such an accumulation of reserves, it is in- credible that the Treasury should ever again experience the perils of the Nineties on account of the green backs.

FRESH BREAD FORTY HOURS
 OLD.
FRESH

Bread kept under ordinary condi- t1ons rapidly becomes stale or dry, so that persons who do not fancy the staff of life in that particular physi- cal state must have bread within a few hours after it IS baked. A method of preventing bread from becoming stale would therefore be an epicurean and economic advantage; it would not only contribute to the gustatory re- quirements of the fastfdious but also prevent considerable loss to the baker and the customer. In a recent issue of The Journal of the American Med tcal Association appears the statement that Dr. J. R. Katz of the University of Amsterdam has shown that bread

Discussion of Traction Ills Fea-
lures Inaugural Message
of New Mayor
STRONGLY ADVOCATES
SUBWAY PROJECT, TOO
Thompson Submits EXaugural
i'm Which he Defends His
Settlement Plan

One OF the genuine surprises Of
Tuesday nights proceedings in the
council chamber was the exaugura
message read by the retiring mayor
William b. Thompson. Friends oil
Thompson Grained that II took the
wind from Oscar B. Marks sails.
There was very little bitterness in
the message, which outlined the work
cut out for the new administration
rather than told what had been &C
lcomplished or left undone by the out
going administration.
Thompson defended his scheme for
settling Detroit's traction problem
and described the difficulties, as he
saw them. in the way of municipal
Ownership. He emphasized the neces
sity OF safeguarding the financial
credit OF the city and concluded his
message by paying a high tribute to
the efficiency OF Police Commissioner
Croul
Mayor Marx in his inaugural mes
sage made only two suggestions not
previously discussed. He advocated
the election of the city controller and
the employment OF city architect.
Features Traction Matter.
The street railway situation was
made the leading feature OF his mes
sage, and, OF course, he recommended
municipal ownership, saying:
1T requires no argument TO con.
vince us that the people will never
for an instant, consider the granting
OF a franchise either to this company
or to any other, and that the only
manner in which we will obtain ade-
quate service, comfort and reason
able fare is through the ownership
and operation by the city Of the en-
tire system"
Further on his message he says
that the importance OF municipal own
ership to the city makes 1t impera
tive that the proposed charter amend
