has fallen off, and there is &
greatly increased demand, espe
clally in Asia, whose coinage i.
chiefly silver.
: There is real danger, when the
bullion value of a coin thus rises
above it's money value, that the
coin will go out of circulation
ether being boarded or melted ur
for commercial purposes. There
is federal law forbidding such
melting down of coins, but it
might be evaded to a considera-
BILE extent.
Chairman Plat of the House
Banking and Currency Committee
proposes to avoid this danger in
another way. He would so re-
duce tn esilver content of all sill
yer coins that there would be no
possibility of their being worth
more as metal than as money. The
present series of coins would then
be called in, and the new coins
given in exchange. The govern
ment would naturally profit by the
process.
There could be no logical objec-
ton to such a change, and there
would be some advantage in hav-
ing the large coins made smaller
and lighter.
Our silver coins, of course, have
not depended at all on intrinsic
value for their purchasing power.
Under our single gold standard
they are merely token money"
A silver dollar has bought 100
cents worth Of anything merely
because it has been exchanged
bic for 100 cents in gold. Thus
for our monetary purposes silver
has no real superiority over
nickel, copper or paper. The
stamp on it is what counts. It is
a little, round government bank
note.
There is no reason why silver
should be used at all, except SEN
timent and tradition. For practi-
cal purposes bit Of bronze or
tin or aluminium with Zone Dol
lar" or Half Dollar" or GUAR
ter Dollar" or Dime" stamped on
it in a government mint would be
just as we'll. We may come to that
time, in order to release the silver
for commercial purposes.

ENGLAND'S SUPERIORITY
GENERAL MERCHANDISE

England again proves that she
is far superior to any European
power. She has proven this MANY
times over in many and various
ways but this time it is for q
cause that all the world should
have at heart, that of the workers
lotteries that will in a measure
discourage the maximum produc-
ton. By means of lotteries the
working class will be tempted to
cast their lot with the gambling
element and if Fate so deems
they will be independent for years
to come.
In England the government has
refused to countenance such
schemes as she realizes that this
Will, in time cause financial ruin.
How many persons will play these
lotteries each week or day think
ing that they will "hit" and will
then quit their tolls and labor and
live off their gambling gains :?
That is the question that England
realizes that cannot be specialized
upon. At the present time when
there is so much unrest among the
working class it would be advisa-
BILE for nation to lay themselves
liable to creating even a worse
state of affairs.
At the present the only way
possible for any nation to possibly
assist their people is to try and de-
velop as much production as pos
sible. This cannot be done if
these same people are to have
chances thrown in their face, that
will not only induce them to give
up their work but will assist them,
in case that they are lucky to stop
work entirely. The only way we
can hope back. a pre-war BASIS is
for nation resources to be produc-
ing to the utmost.
We hope that the European
powers that have already inaugu-
rated this system of lotteries will
see their follies before it is to late.
England in her attitude in this
matter, should have some influ-.
ence on the remaining powers who
have this time taken no stand in
the matter.

SILVER COINS.

New problems have been crea-
ted by the rising value of silver.
With the metal going as high as
$1.37-5 an ounce, the bullion in a
silver dollar becomes worth more
than the dollar itself. In the last
few days silver has dropped again
to around $1.30 an ounce, which
makes the bullion in the dollar
about equal to that dollars pur-
