NO MONEY, ALL
SCRIP IN DAYS
y OF ROOSEVELT
Man Who Held Chair During the
Panic in 1907 is Saying
Country Not Prosperous.
Isentinel snecinl seryice. |

Washington. d. c., July 15.-Pres-
ident Roosevelt has fallen back on
the calamity cry OF the little Repub-
lican politicians throughout the
country and takes the position that
prosperity can not exist during n
Democratic administration.
This is the same Mr.. Roosevelt
whose occupancy of the presidency
was chiefly signalized by the panic
of 1907, and the ensuing depression,
from which the country was only
emerging when his successor was in
stalled in office.
During that panic, when Mr..
Roosevelt was in the White House,
there was organized in every section
of the country NO MEAT CLUBS.
Money was so scarce and meat was
so high many people throughout the
land boycotted all forms of meat and
were forced to vegetable diet. The
people of this nation have not been
forced to any such boycott under
the Wilson administration. There is
abundance everywhere.
You remember. of course, the
SCRIP days of the Roosevelt admins
istration. In those ncyer-to-be-for-
gotten days people who had good
hard money in the banks couldn't
draw it out. Checks were no good.
nerositors were given scrip instead
of money, which had to he hawked
around and finally exchanged ON dis
count. Remember, those dark days
back in 1907? Well. the next time n
little two-by-four Republican says

On the floor of the house Congress
man Raincy of Illinois forcefuliy
called attention few days ago to
the dcplor.ible situation that existed
in 1907. He said:
In 1907 the men who had toiled
all day long, day after day, in our
shops and under the hot suns of
summer on our farms. were unable to

We suspended the operation of the
criminal and civil laws of this coun-
try and permitted throughout the
land every bank that wanted to do so
to violate the law. On this side of

discomfort or disapprovul through

tion to this panic, for which the Re
