The first two days that the new one
dollar greenback Just issued by the
government here were in circulation
the police made six arrests on the
short change" charge. The new bill
so closely resembles a five dollar
greenback that to mistake it for a
five-spot is the easiest kind of thing
to do. 1t is the same design as the old
legal tender note of fifty years ago
bearing the Gilbert Stewart portraN
Of Washington. 1t looks nothing like
the commonly known one dollar bill
which has been in circulation for up
wards Of three generations. Until the
public gets used to it, and becomes
cautious, 1t is going to be help to
the short change fraternity through
out the country in meeting the high
cost of living. r7,g-,,,..t n,
