Renaissance In Washington.

Washington is awake artistically.
What she requires now is that patron

That means, and has ever meant. a
theater that is not commercial

Witness the work of the Washing
ton Opera Company. Its success OF
last week is beyond dispute. To
keep ii, however, in the double serv-
ice Of development for the young
artist and development of the art of
opera, it needs facilities to overcome

laboring.

THE VOICE OF WISDOM.

The commission Of the American
Legion at its first meeting in Indian
apolis sent out the following state
ment:
I'VE recommend giving the active
support of the American Legion to
every effort to stamp out iHiteracy
Love Of country and loyalty
to the Institutions grow from l1nowl
edge. The American Legion should
encourage and support and helr
schools in telling-children the history
and development of American institu-
tions in language they can understand
The same story should greet the i'm
migrant as he lands. and should follow
him through his oath of citizenship
The only agitator that eventually
need be feared is injustice The Amer
lean Legion stands for the reconcile
ton of all citizens by the removal of
unjust conditions wherever found"
It is very refreshing to read so
simple and sound philosophy from
men who know. Anyone who has not
an abiding faith in the future, if he
will make the above his creed, he will
change from worthless Doubling
Thomas to potent force for good
government.

BIG BOND ISSUES.

Net revenues for 1919 amounted to
S6.293, 900, according to a statement
issued by Stephen Birch, president Of
the Kennecott Copper corporation
and the average net revenue for the
last four years amounted to ST.
9S1, 465 per annum. The corporation
is floating a S15,OOO.OOO. 1O-year,
per cent bond issue to retire $4,000

Listed among the resources of the
company is 80 per cent of the capital
stock of Utah Copper, certain Alas

troll of what is believed to be the third
largest body of proven ore. Located
in Chile, this body Of ore is estimated
to contain 173,5OO, 900 tons of 2.45 per

McFADDEN SILVER BILL
AMENDS PITTMAN ACT
Cuts Subsidiary Coinage Standard
From go to 80 Per Cent End Allows
Melting of All Silver Dollars.


Hearings have been begun by the
house committee on banking and cur
rency on the McFadden bill which pro-
poses to amend the Pittman Silver Act
of April 20, 1918, and to reduce the
standard of subsidiary silver coin from
80 to 80 per cent. The new measure
amends the Pittman act so as to re-
Quire that all standard silver dollars
be broken up and sold as bullion The
Pittman act required the repurchase
of like amount of silver at 81 pei
ounce. The McFadden bill repeats the
repurchase clause. In commenting on
his bill Representative McFadden
said:
''The phenomenal rise in the price of
silver from 4Sisc. an ounce in 1915 to
$lS7i4 in 1919 has caused our stan
dard silver dollar, worth only SIC. in
1915, to be worth s1O6A in gold in
1919, and the silver dollar being worth
more as bullion than as coin has driven
itself out of circulation by the opera
ton of the ineXOrable law announced
by Sir Thomas Gresham, the financial
advisor of Queen Elizabeth. Gresham
announced that money of less value
drives out money of more value This
law applies to the bi-metallic or So
called double standard of value as well
as to worn coins. AS our gold dollar
az the coinage ratio of / to Is of silver,
is now less valuable than the standard
silver dollar the cheaper gold dollar
has driven the more valuable silver
dollar out of circulation Here is
twentieth-century proof of the fallacy
of bi-metallism.
we had the very same experience
in 1852. following the discovery of gold
in California, when all our silver
change money was melted up and the
public had to use postage stamps for
change. At that time our subsidiary !
silver coins were the alloquial part of |
the standard silver dollar Congress |
relieved that situation by enacting on
Feb. p, 1858, our present subsidiary
silver coinage law which reduced their
weight by per cent and sustained Il
heir parity with gold by government Il
