FORMER GOLDF|ELD
WOMAN DIES IN
T0NOPAH

Tonopah Times: Mrs. Gus En-
neking, who, on Nov. 10, was strick-
en- with influenza, which develop
ed into pneumonia, died at 8
O'Clock yesterday morning in her
room at the Turner house. On
Sunday improvement was noted in
her condition, but, as she suffered
a relapse Monday and gradually
grew worse, little hope was enter
tanned for her recovery.
Mrs. Enneking, whose maiden
name was Blanche Gilbert, was
married in Goldfield in 1912 at
the home of her parents. The cou-
pie moved to Tonopah, residing
here for a year and then returned
to GOldfield. After making their
residence in the southern camp for
a time they again came to Tono
pah, where the husband was en-
ployed in the Wells Fargo Offices.
In all, they have lived here about
four years.
Mrs. Enneking was born in
Pony, Mont, and was 25 years Old
on rJov. a.. She came to NeVada
with her parents in 1907.

JAPAN TO CONTRACT
CURRENCY TO STOP
SOARING PRICES

TOXIC, Nov. %. = Contraction
of the currency which has been in
flated in Japan owing to the war
is recommended in many circles as
n means of lowering prices, the
soaring Of which recently led to
disturbances.
Baron Hakahashi, formerly min
lister of finance, expresses the opin-
ion that currency contraction would
undoubtedly lower prices, but he
fears such a measure would bring
in its wake serious business de-
preston. He pointed out that the
amount of convertible notes issued
by the Bank of Japan had doubled,
but as money of this nature is in
the pockets of workers it will be
impossible to redeem its amount
and any attempt to do so would
prove a blow to the business pros
perity which is founded on an ex-
pansion of credit.
