Problem Of Gold Production

STRANGE development of the period is that the
n production Of gold not profitable that Of other
metals notably copper notwithstanding that gold has been
rated among the necessities of
the gold fields Of northwestern Arizona for instance
where there several big producers, it has been found
that miners leaving to work the copper mines where
higher wages paid The gold mine operators way
pay wages high enough to compete with the copper opera
and hence threatened with shortage Of labor
The condition IS said to exist in other gold fields
As gold is the standard money value throughout the
world advance in the price Of gold sufficient to allow
the operators pay higher wages decrease in the
amount of gold equivalent the dollar, would bring
relief since would automatically raise the wage level and
the cost of all materials to coespondngy higher level
It has been suggested that the various governments
allied with the United States in the prosecution of the
arrange to pay bonus to the gold operators sufficient to
afford them profit and this without altering the present
mint standards It is proposed that such bonus should
be calculated the increase in miners since
the beginning of the and might well be granted under
regulations that would guarantee the an attractive
rate Of pay under present conditions
The effect the producing companies would be to
stimulate the gold output by restoring their profits to
something approaching the level of before the war
It is necessary way to assist gold production
which otherwise is due for sharp slump The allies must
have gold during the and certainly after the when
the economic Of trade competition between the allies
the central powers bound to be hard fought As
international medium Of exchange gold is essential and the
countries which have the most supplies Of It will enjoy Just
that much advantage.
