without paper currency. the
country depends on gold and silver
coin and the high price of silver
has caused an acute shortage OF
small change, due TO Illicit export

Money changers are now charging
as high as Z per cent to change
gold coin into silver, and 1t is re-
ported that gold also IL growing

tried to use postal and document
ary stamps for change found them
selves breaking the law.
Thus far no method OF facilitate
ing small purchases has been dis
covered and. according to semi-of-
fetal statements, the country will
be forced to wait for the price OF
silver to decline to secure relief.
The silver content of the lower

mint has been working overtime
