FOR GERMANY
lSADV0CATED
Believes This System Will
Save Germany Billions
!, Of Dollars.
{By The Associated Pres,.)'

4 Chicago-Placing of the export
business of Germany on e gold stand
erd basis is advocated by the Illinois
Manufacturer association in a letter
sent to David Lloyd George, prime
minister of England.
In U judgment the demoraliza-
ton of the industry and commerce
OF Germany and of the other countries
east of the Rhine whole currency
ny putting the export business of
these countries on a gold standard ba-
sis" the letter states. I,
The letter was signed by George
III. Meyercord, chairman of the for
eign relations committee, who said he
represented 1900 members whose es-
umated annual output is between five
and six billion dollars and whose
plants furnish employment for about
SOO,OO0 persons. \ II i..
The governments Of those coun-
tries themselves appear either unWIl!-
Ing or unable to accomplish this" he
said. In the case Of Germany. how
ever. it can be done through the in
PREVENTION Of the Allied reparat,ons
commission. 1t is here that the Brit
1sh government has at once the re-
sponsibility and the power to act.
"1nasmuch as the German mark
v USpA 0SAoSAA5 COuIAlludllSs tIlc
German seller has usually been. the
loser, often, to such an extent that the
German manufacturer who had to
buy his raw materials in the worlds
markets could not replace them at
the price for which he has contra IT
ed to sell the finished article. Thu
process spells bankruptcy, ruin ana
death. No industry can survive it.
"A nations prosperity is founded
entirely on the prosperity of its indi-.
vidua citizens. No nation can long
escape national bankruptcy whose in
dividual industry and commercial
units court a general insolvency.
Immense Loss.
"Germany's loss through the failure
OF her exporters to sell on q gold
standard basis has cached stipend
GUS figures-not unlikely reaching in
to billions of dollars. Probably the
loss to Germany from this source ag-
gregates a SUM large enough to &C
count for her failure to pay her rep
aration installments as they have be-
come due"
The esta blishment Of a gold stand
ard would remove the great factor Of
Generalization which proceeds from
the speculation in the German mark,
Mr.. Meyercord stated. and it would
make the German Industrial machine
competent to pay the r~eparations
which Germany has undertaken to
pay.
