AMERICAS GOLD RESERVE.

Something a quarter of century the

of gold that made it possible for Russia to borrow
money when she asked for 1t. For half century

great army was amply gold buttressed that that

But those things have changed The first of the
present month there $3,766765,5S4 in the
United States, and the gain continues. 1t is believed
that it may reach 81 600 600 before gold
ment starts away from the country. Notwithstanding
the interruption of gold production in South America
practically shutting off gold importation from Eng
land, our gold supply has increased this year the
rate Of $27,700. 600 month the Rand begins pro-
ducing again it is estimated that this gain will be
increased by millions monthly.

This condition is that leads many economists
to conclude that labor in many lines in the United
States would the country, and labor itself well by
consenting to marked reductions in wages 1t would
induce lower prices and create additional markets
thereby solving the unemployment problem, and lead
to restoration of higher wages later. If all the in

If the United States could produce cheaper it

A SUGGESTION FROM DAWSON.

From Dawson the suggestion that the
president and Governor General OF Canada make the
trip to the North together visiting both American
and Canadian ports the way. The Dawson News
thinks it would be a wonderful thing for both Alaska
and Yukon Territory if the heads OF the two great
North American countries could up the coast
together, go down the Yukon and up the Tanana to
Fairbanks and the from there and south
again visiting all American and Canadian towns
along the route of travel
Such a trip would, undoubtedly, result in calling
the attention of the world to the North 1t would be
an unprecedented procedure. Not only would it give
the North a amount of advertising everywhere,
it would probably do a lot to tighten and strength
en- the ties that bind the two countries together

CHEAPER PRODUCTION AND LARGER
MARKETS NEEDED.

The business depression in the United States is not
due TO low prices for products but to lack of
at the prevailing prices Steel copper paper cotton
and many other products quoted at prices
which would show profits if there were a demand
that would mean a quick market In fact in many
lines prices are still so high that they tend to cause
slow buying. Usually period of industrial depres-
ron is broken because low prices induce buying and
thereby start the wheels moving round again
However, while prices are higher in MANY in
stances than the demand would warrant the pro-
ducers not doing well as they would do with
much lower price If they could work up their capac-
ity TO produce. The overhead charge on an industry
that is working for instance Go per cent of ca
pacty is practically high il would be If il were
working at 100 per cent. At the present time the
