modities. This process must come to
an end. Somewhere there is limit
to our resources of material, money

we must stop before that limit is
reached. Just how this is to come is
not certain. It may bring something

bring a decrease in the volume of ex-

This unparalleled condition of trade
brought about a great influx Of gold

this vast acquisition of the worlds
gold is not the unmitigated blessing

nations were in reality nothing more
