Elastic Dollar" VIII Assure
Prosperity Says Steinmets
BY EDWARD NJ. THIERRY

copyright, 1922, NEA Service)
SCHENECTADY. y. Y-H W
would you like to have your pay en-
velope contain elastic money? Dol
lars that increased or decreased ex-
actly as the cost OF living slid up or
down? Money that stretched in
hard times?
I'VE are drifting toward IT," says
DR.. Charles p. Steinmetz, electrical
wizard and scientist.
'Why not use the average price
Index OF. commodities as the unit OF
monetary value instead Of gold?" he
asks.
Steinmetz advanced the novel idea
In an interview with NEA Service,
discussing world economic ills. But
he emphasized that he is not making
any spectacular recommendation nor
qualifying as coinage crank.
1T il n theoretical idea toward
which the world gradually is drift
ing" he says; you can't introduce
such cataclysmic thing abruptly.
Time and trend must do It and the
trend today is away from fixed
money and the inflexibe gold stand
ard and toward the price index.
Gold Poor Standard.
cold really is the least suitable
standard. Gold supply and money
get out OF alignment, particularly
under pressing needs of war. It
wasn't true that the price of things
rose, but that the price OF gold fell.
THE ideal system would be not so
many grains OF gold to a dollar. but
a unit based on the average price in
dex of commodlties-foo Clothing.
labor, rent and tho like.
Things really change little. ex-
cept against gold. The only thing.
permanent Is the average value of
everything we use to live. Money is
supposed TO represent relative
values. You don't eat the gold-it is
the relative value of the things you
need that counts.
steinmetz pointed out that with a
price index dollar the man who
got $40 a week in 1913 "normaley"
would get SEQ a week il the
price index shot up to 300-auto-
matically, without an actual increase
In pay.
Adjustment.
1T would be automatic adjust
ment." he said. THE great difii-
Guilty is that regulating such index
money would require absolutely ex-
act price index bulletins, perhaps
weekly. Who could be trusted thus |
to regulate the nations business and |
the national pocketbook? 1t would |
require an all-wise central body.

G0UDECK UNDER BAIL
ON LIQUOR CHARGES

Jacob Gondeck, of Elmhurst. who
was arrested on charges Of violations
of the state liquor laws, on two
counts. one OF manufacture and the
other of illegal possession of spir-
ituous liquors. was held under $1,000
bail for the Court of General Ses-
sions. yesterday afternoon. by Mag
istrate Stradley.
Gondek eluded Frank +. Haley,
special agent for the Law and order
Society, and a squad OF federal
agents last Friday night when they
appeared at his home with a war
rant to search the premises. Con
dek posed as his own son-in-law and
made hi sescape. He later eurren-
dered at the office of Mr.. Haley.
Gondek disclaims proprietorship
Of the stills. mash and alleged
whisky found on his place. He says
a Pole. whose name he could not re-
call. had rented a portion of his
barn for a purpose he did not explain
to Gondek.

Maybe, as the drift goes on, future
generations will solve the problem" ."
Mentioning the proposal Of Henry
Ford and Thomas A. Edison to
create energy dollars" by power de-
velopment and land reclamation.
Steinmetz continued:
1T doesn't matter what we call
the money, or whether It is backed
by gold or industrial development.
With the price index money we real
ly would be Independent OF what is
back of It.
The dollar might still be so many
grains of gold. but we would use the
gold dollar multiplied by the price
index. Business woud be on that
basis, for right now it is the basis
OF all national activity.
Watch the curves OF prices. Ad-
just money to the curves. Then we
will have stationary prosperity. with
no periods Of high prices or low
prices.
Practical Example.
'lf the 1918 dollar IS now .151 in
the price index, say 220 last year.
and perhaps less tomorrow. our
money would be the same under this
system-instead of the gold dollar
being worth about so cents now.
down to S5 cents three years ago.
and nobody knows what tomorrow.
''1n hard times money was scarce
and it was hard to borrow. With
index money could borrow $1,000

back perhaps half that in actual pur-
chasing power because times
changed, would get exactly the righ

ALEXANDRIA BAY.-The prop
osition to purchase the magnificent
property on Hart Island. opposite
Alexandria Bay, formerly owned by
the estate Of George c. Boldt, of
New York. as summer home for
the President, is taking definite
form. and is meeting with enthusias-
tic support among the millionaire
! island residents. There Is no doubt
that the amount required Will be
raised. The property originally cost
/ Mr.. Boldt two million when labor
and material were at the low point.
Mr.. Boldt was proprietor of the
1 Waldorf-Astoria in New York. lie
was an ardent lover of the Thousand
! Island region and obtained large
holdings in this section. He had a
large farm on Wells Island, on
which he raised produce for his
hotel In New York. and also owned
several cottages Of palatial proper
tions. lie commenced the castle on
Hart Island about 1900. and worked
on II several years, but it was never
fully completed.
The work clearly shows that Mr.
Boldt possessed an artistic mind OF
unusual grasp and development. for
the castle is made to fit the wonder
full setting fashioned by nature, and
as 1t stands It looks the part. 1t is
along lines never before attempted
in this country. and is the most inn
posing structure on the st. Law
renee. II is the first object that
strikes the eye of the tourist as he
enters Alexandria Bay and looks out
upon the great river and 1t appeals
strongly to his artistic side and sense
of beauty
The building Is nve stories high
and the top commands a grand view
OF scores of islands up and down the
great river. It contains over so
rooms with a rotunda in the center
that extends from the ground to the
roof Around this rotunda on each
floor is a balcony so that il an or
chestra or band was playing below
all the guests could enjoy the music.
On the west end Of. the island is
Alster Tower, a unique structure that
is one OF the sights Of the st. Law
renee. on the east end is Bell
Tower. containing beautiful chimes.
All the buildings are OF the attrac-
tive native stone that has a red
shade. The grounds are spacious
and largely as nature made them, (
