Judge C. C. Goodwin.-People by
thousands are asking every day:
Why are times SO hard in a country
like ours? Why is there depression
in business in every state? Why are
there so many men and women who
need work, idle? Why is the cost OF
living so high? The answer to the
first question is the money is not
equally divided; those who have the
bulk of the money are afraid to use
it in business and the others are nec-
essarialy short of cash To this
may be added that the volume of
money is too small. which gives
ficticious value to what there is.
One result is that a great many men
who have money prefer to loan it for
the interest II will bring rather than
to risk it in any business. with the
result that nearly all the community
is at work to pay the bulk of their
earnings to those who own and loan
the money This is altogeter legiti-
mate and there is but one way to
change 1t which is to increase the
volume of money. Congress should
pass law ordering the purchase OF
2. .000.0 ounces OF silver a month
and they might include a paragraph
that should silver advance to one
dollar an ounce. it should be re- mon
etized at that ratio with gold.
