HIRSHFIELD SPREAD
UNTRUTHS, SAYS LEO
Ex Commissioner Complains
on Penal Law Involving
Matter for Press.
LAURA BACK AT OLD POST
MaH Who Suspended Him Now
Has Lost Ills Place Through
Dispute.

John 2. Leo. who resigned as Commits
sioner of Street Cleaning on November
II, went before Magistrate Marsh in
the Washington Heights Court yesterday
and charged David Hirshfield. Commits
sloner OF Accounts. with having violated
Section 1853 of the penal law in giving
70 the press information which he knew
10 be false. The Magistrate ordered
hearing for 2 o'clock tomorrow after
noon and issued a summons for Hirsh-
field and subp9nas for three other wit
ncsses. rr~
Michael Laura, Deputy Commissioner
OF Brooklyn. who was suspended by Mr..
Leo for alleged efforts to influence a
judge in favor OF a delegate of the
Street Cleaners Union who was being
tried for assault, had returned to his
Gesk in the morning. He was reinstated
Fv Alfred Taylor. Acting Commissioner
OF the department. with the approval of
Mayor Hylan. Laura ran for Sheriff of
Kings this year and was defeated. Mr..
Leo suspended him just before the cleo
lion and Tammany blamed the Commits
aoner for Lauras defeat. Leo in turn
blamed the Laura affair for his trouble
with Hylan and Hirshfield.
The information resented by Mr.. Leo
IN his complaint to the magistrate was
printed on November 10. Hirshheld was
quoted as saying that the point / want
TO emphasize is that the reason Com
missioner Leo resigned Is that he did not
want an honest investigation of his de-
srartment" He was also quoted as say
ing that Leo appeared to have bought
for $4,000 each two garbage bumpers
which were obsolete and valueless OF
at least not worth nearly the amount
paid. Mr.. Leo says Hirshfeld gave this
statement to reporter and that it is
false.
Hirshfield said he did not mind going
to court. but hoped the hearing could
be postponed as he had intended TO be
out of town tomorrow. His comment
on the action of Leo was: IT suppose
all these gentlemen who are investigated
win find fault with the investigation.
The fault that Mr.. Leo found was that
! didn't investigate the way he wanted
me u. / started the investigation and
made It in my own way"
Mr.. Leo. who had frequently been
praised for efficient conduct of the Street
Cleaning Department, said in his letter
of resignation on November IL that
blackguardly charges had been made
against him of favoritism toward a
lessor of scows and that he resented
the Mayors directing Hirshf1eld to in
vestigate without first giving Leo a
chance to defend himself. He also said
he had incurred the intense hostility OF
benefciaries of former scow monop-
oily. whose rates he had reduced from
sl4 TO 81 a day by open bidding.
Hirshfeld was tried in September on
az indictment charging him with crimi-
nally libeling Assistant District Attor-
ney Smith in giving to the press parts
of testimony taken in a Hirshfield hear

as the gold holdings of the Federal Reserve banks are increased, the abil- ity of such banks to extend accommo- dations to member banks, or to issue notes, is enlarged. Taking 409o in gold as normally required as a mini mum behind every note that is issued, it is clear that in order to lend $100.00 in Federal Reserve notes, a Federal Reserve bank must have on hand in its vaults $4O.00 in gold. The fact is that each gold dollar in the vaults of the Federal Reserve banks may serve as the basis of deposit liabilities of two and one half dollars and these deposits to the credit of a member bank may in turn serve to enable credit extension by such banks of anywhere from seven to fourteen times that amount or say from $500 to $35.00.
 It follows, therefore, that with re- serves close to the legal minimum, every $50,000,O00.00 of gold lost to the Gold Reserves means forced credit contraction of from $900,O00, 100000 to $1, 750, 000,000.00 annually.
 Increased Production of, Gold in the
 United States. l..
 Our financiers recognize the impor- tance of an increased production of gold in the United States.
 With the rapidly declining prices of commodities, of labor, of steel, of ex- plosives, of machinery, of lumber, etc., to pre-war levels, it is reasonable to assume that gold mining will be stim- ulated to the utmost degree. Increas- ed production will follow.
 Gold Mining Industry The gold industry occupies unique position, it stands alone of all indus tries, in that:
 The product, gold, has fixed value;
 Is salable in unlimited quantities;
 Has an ever ready market;
 No trade rivalry;
 There can be no over-production.
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1921-04-29

Herbert Hoover, mining engineer, Secretary of Commerce, in his address to the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers, of which he is the retiring president, said: "Inasmuch as the chief callings are those of the money lender, the soldier, the merchant, the farmer, and the miner, say that inasmuch as usury is odious, while the spells of cruelty captured possessions of people inno- cent of wrong is wicked in the sight of God and man, inasmuch as the call ing of the miner excells in honor and dignity that of the merchant trading for .lucre, while it is not less noble and yet more profitable than agricul- ture, who can fail to realize that min ing is calling of peculiar 'dignity?"

|ONEY IS LIFE BLOOD OF COMMERCE
 AND GOLD IS THE BASIS OF MONEY

the value of gold to civilization. More people look upon it as a raw material for the manufacture of jewelry, than as the foundation upon which labor and life is built. Because we don't handle much gold, it seems unimpor- tant and far off. If another nation appears to be gaining control of the worlds production of oil, we become alarmed and quickly point out the danger to our future prosperity, Let us get it into our heads that gold is importantras important as iron; or oil; or coal; or wheat; or cotton, so long as civilization continues on a gold standard of money.
 Foreign Exchange
 . We hear lot about foreign ex- change; the gold supplies of nations seriously affect their rates of ex- change and determine their purchas- ing power. The credit of a Govern ment is important; the gold reserves of any country fixes its credit. .... Gold and Credit
 Attempts to contract the credit structure of the country are laudable, but even here we must bear in mind that although the gold ratio may be helped by such contraction of credit, our adverse trade balance will force us to lose a large part of the gold which contraction will release.
 Gold and Credit Extension
 There are those who doubtless be- lieve that a loss of $40,000, ,000.00 or $50, 900, ,000.00, in new gold production each year is a matter of small i'm portance. Let us see: In proportion

Gold Production

The gold supply of the world has fn falling off very rapidly. During last four years, the worlds out
 of gold declined from $469, 9,000,- boo annually to $350,00O,0 100000. 1915 the United States produced |b% of the worlds total gold out E, and the British Empire 63.7%. 1920 the United States produced but 1920 of the total, while the |tish output was in excess of 73% the worlds entire production. The duction of gold in the United Stat in 1915 amounted to $101, 1,035,- .0O; while in 1920 the production to $49, ,500, 100000 a loss in produc- P of $51,526,7 10000. r The Reason for Loss in U. s. The reason for the loss of produc- } in the United States may be ply stated: Labor increased 20%; Rl from 409o to 280To; explosives Q; machinery 75To; lumber 125%,
 Stimulated by Great Britain
 treat Britain stimulated it's gold put by agreeing to pay the gold hucers, in it's provinces, bonus bunting to 5000 per ounce on all
 gold produced.
 Fixed Value of Gold " turing the last four years practi- everything has risen in price ex-
