An Americans VielO.

From the Butterfield Co. notes in
The Newport News of last week.
The peculiar conditions developed
as the result of the unusual shifting
of international trade balances have
recently caused the dollars of our
northern neighhor to fall to 85 cents
in terms of our money. Ordinarily
there is no more discount on Canadi-
an dollars to settle an adverse trade
balance at the New York money GEN.
ter than there is on dollars at Chi
cago. When Montreal owed New
York more than New York owed her,
the gold came across the border by
express train in settlement, just as
1T would from Chicago under the same
conditions.
But at present gold l. not permit
ted to leave Canada, and her paper
rloney, instead of being demand
notes, is merely promissory notes,
lacking even a iu,4e cate. So the re-
telvers of them III this side of the
lo1der have lseen forced to mark
taem steadily down until now a Can
adam merchant PAYNE a bill here for
$1,000 has to send $1150.
| The discount of Canadian money in
our markets has resulted from ITO
fault of Canada, and does not neces-
sarily imply any weakened financial
condition. In her dealing with all
outside customers Canada has a sub
stantial credit balance, but has been
unable to draw upon this in cash
She, too, has been selling goods tic
| Europe and receiving l. 0. US in
payment, and has thus not had the
cash with which to pay for the ex-
cess of imports from US over her ex.
ports to US. aa laIatH a-i~e3flfl !
In our domestic business transac.
tons we have become so accustomed
to accepting paper money and checks
In settlement that we almost lose
| sight of the fact that these, in the
final analysis, only represent options
on gold which must be paid on de.
mand. But in dealing with foreign
i countries we refuse their paper mon
ey and demand the yellow metal The
lace value of which is always equa

Federal Employees Compensation

Over 40 federal employees living in
and near Newport, including men IN
the customs service, immigration ser
vice, public health department, Gus
todian service and animal industry
bureau are interested in the following
resolution presented to the Newport
Chamber of Commerce and unani-
lmously adopted at recent meeting:
Whereas, it is commonly known
that the average compensation now
lpaid to government employees is
grossly inadequate to meet the con-
stantly mounting cost of living, Gre
ating thereby not only unsatisfactory
conditions to the employees them
selves, but is also gravely detrimen-
tai to the efficient conduct of govern
ment business, as the retention of the
most experienced and competent
workers in the different branches of
the government service becomes more
and more difficult;
Therefore is is resolved that this
body, while heartily approving the
policy of the present congress in the
exercise of strictest economy when
dealing with the different appropria-
tons, it considers that the failure to
allow adequate salaries to govern
ment employees is unwise and consti-
tutes indeed most expensive form of
retrenchment; and it urges upon
every member of the Vermont Con
gressionalr delegation the duty to adj
vocate and support in congress any
well considered measure now pending
or which may be presented working
towards material betterment of the
conditions. oel laio3-9 to =
"Andsit is further resolved that the
secretary of this Chamber be in
structed to forward copy of this
resolution to each member of the
Vermont delegation as well as to the
presiding officer of the senate and
speaker of the house of representa-
tlves, Washington, D. c.
