CHICAGO, Dec. while wheat
was somewhat firmer early on scat

was not impressive, and as soon as
commission houses started to sell
freely prices declined readily, July,
at new low on the crop, showing
il cents under the recent high. Kan
sas mills were understood to be SELL

account Of a slow flour demand. and

YESTERDAY little better demand
was claimed for hard winter at the

FORDIS PROPOSAL
TO ELIMINATE GOLD
2::fALLED QUACKERY
His Muscle Shoals Fiat
Money" Plan Likened
To Greenbacks.
POINT TO RUSSIA
Bankers Say Method SavOrs
. Of Lenin's Communis-
tic Theory.
POINT TO RUSSIA

NEW YORK. Dec. IA majority Of
bankers here arc amused at Henry
Ford's plan to end war and eliminate
the use of gold in government credit.
by Issuing money backed by units OF
energy" rather than gold, and retir-
ing the paper with the profits Of such
projects as the one at Muscle Shoals.
Financial authorities who are will
ing to discuss the plan characterize
81 as the worst kind OF quackery. IL
u doe. not SAVIOR Of communism. They
say It Is unthinkable that any success
full business man should even consider
the issue OF fat money unnecessarily.
when We have the eloquent examples
of the European Currencies constantly
before us. They point out that even
those South American countries whose
gold reserves are large enough to back
their circulations, but who refuse to
declare a free gold market. have a
deprecated currency. That a $50 bill
backed by the plant at Muscle Shoals
would be accepted as the equal OF one
backed by $50 in gold in the Treasury
or even eight in the Federal Reserve
Bank vaults is more than doubtful.
Regarded rs peculiar"
General opinion is that the plan is
not entitled to serious consideration.
1t is regarded as another manifesto
ton of Henry Ford's peculiar ideas
on economics and finance, usually con
sidered interesting and even enter
tanning. but hardly important.
As to the cause OF war, Mr.. Ford
says:
The cause Of all wars is gold. We
shall demonstrate to the world through
Muscle Shoals the practicability and
desirability of displacing gold as a
basis OF currency and substituting
worlds natural wealth"
Another Of Ford's most eviden,
fallacies. bankers say, in his proposed
credit system: simply forget the gold
standard. and when the government
needs money for public improvement
instead OF interest-bearing bonds think
Of noninterestbearing currency. Here's
a way to get public improvement,
without increasing the debt. The in
terest load Is breaking down our whole
financial system"
See Blue sky Limit.
Who is going to set the limit fol-
expansion Of credit under such a
plsne bankers ask. The advantage OF
q gold standard is that when imitation
g going forward at too fast a pace
there is always a reserve limit. as
occurred in the fall Of 1919. at which
automatic machinery is set going &c
stop it with the least possible jar
Under Mr.. Ford's plan there is nc
limit but the end of the imaginative
powers OF the legislative body.
The plan Is supposed to stop war
by proving so successful at Muscle
Shoals that people will never again
consent to Understanding bonds FOR
national improvements. "Other coun-
tries. seeing our success. will do like
wise The function Of the money
seller will have disappeared"
Bankers point to Soviet Russia as
the tragic example OF the practical op
Grafton Of this theory. Moreover. they
say, the experience of the United
states with its greenbacks during tn.
civil war should be sufficient warning
for uB.

According to a ruling made by
the State Highway Commission,
which met at Jackson Monday, the
$4,000 bond issue authorized by
the taxpayers of Brandon last
year for the purpose of building
gravel road to the depot, is in
valid, inasmuch as the bonds were
not sold within one year from the
date voted. The bond market has
been so poor for the past few
months that it has been impossi-
BILE to get the bonds sold to bond
brokers. At one time the board
thought that the bonds would be
taken by an individual, and re-
garded the matter as closed, but
on account of the money string
ency this deal fell through, and as
a consequence the bonds cannot
be sold now.

BELIEVES TANLAC KEPT HIM
ON JOB
Tulsa Citizen Declares His Wife
Was Also Greatly Benefited
By Taking It.

1T was certainly money well
spent when ! bought Tanlac, for
doubt if I would be able to be
on the job today if it hadn't been
for this medicine" said j. E.
Chandler, Of SO Olympia ST., Tul-
sa, Okla.
For a long time before / got
Tanlac was troubled with what
Il believe was rheumatism. I had
awful pains and soreness in my
shoulders, and many times my
arms were so stiff and ached SO
, bad could hardly raise my hands
to my head. l don't believe
could have been in more misery
had some one been sticking me
with a knife, and it was just all
| could do to stay ON the job. I
couldn't find anything to help me,
and was certainly i'm bad shape.
I have taken six bottles of
Tanlac, and it has relieved me of
rheumatism so completely that I
never have an ache or pain and l
have regained my full strength
and energy.
my wife was, not well and had
no appetite to speak of. She took
Tanlac at the same time / did, and
it has given her such a splendid
appetite that she said to me the
other day it looked like she would
eat us out Of house and home. I
believe Tanlac is all that kept me
ON the job, and there as so many
others in i'll health that / feel it is
my duty to tell everybody / can
about it." Advertisement.
