Absolute ruler OF her hofhe, tribal law
gives her the uncontrovertible right to
exclude her spouse at will.
This disconcerting Information was
given by Mr.. Merritt last night in
the course of an interesting lecture
before 4 large group Of citizens in
the Takoma Park Baptist Church.
He spoke with the auth~sity Of one
who Mas studied Indian life assidu-
ously.
The history Of the white man. Mr..
Merritt continued. relates that at one
time our stone-age progenitors were
in the habit OF selecting their wives
by dragging them off to their caves
by the hair OF their heads. In the
not dim distant past. however. the
where an Indian squaw reversed
English on history.
The Indian brave, it seems, owned
some land. which was little better
than buffalo pasture. when he in.
herited it from his father. Years
later oil was found. and the Indian
became fabulously wealthy. One day,
turn a week or so later. led by a
squaw. Investigation disclosed that
the Indian woman had kidnapped the
newly made oil baron, and held him
captive until he married her.
virtually all Indian nations have
suffrage. as far back as the Oldest
chiefs can remember. Men propose
the laws for the government Of the
village, but they may not be put
into force until after the women have
approved them. Only in war and
hunting is the Indian man regarded
as superior to the woman, and she
more than eaualizes this by holding
iron sway over her tepee.
Mr.. Merritt paid tribute to the ad-
vances made by Indians in the last
fifty years. The work of assimilation
is rapidly wiping out the pure In
paratively few more years the red
skinned man will have been COM
pletely absorbed by the white man.
1t Is history repeating itself. the
same process that has made the
white civilization the dominating
civilization Of the world. he said.

Gold as Money Basis

To he Editor OF the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir-Your report Of EIison's money
nuestionnnire and Norris comments
thereon is interesting reading. ana.
10 II serves no other purpose. may ger
somc of your readers interested in that
invention which. next to our language.
is most used. Money. as we are now
using it, IL simply very practical
method of bookkeeping. Paper money
i, NOT wealth, but simply promise
10 nay wealth. 1t evidences the fact
that the holder had wealth which he
parted with and took money with which
he NAV at some future date obtain
wealth. That this printed paper may
perform its function II must have us
value stated aud the Government should
stand ready 10 prove thac Value pE

But-nnd this is the point Of i'm
ror,ancc to Il world that cannot redeem
in gold MS pronised---whiie the value
is best stated in gold because gold il
best known as n money base. 1t need
NOT be redeemed in gold, but is just as
satisfactory If redeemed in any one of
n number OF commodities, provided the
commodity used is delivered at its mar
ket ratio TO gold. More briefly, money
NAV be redeemed in gold or its market
equivalent. This would include energy.
So Edison is not talking through his
hat. as Norris seems to think.
Norris asks: "What is an energy
unit" Any schoolbOy can tell him.
4 horsepower hour Or n kilowa,t hour
or n miners inch nrc units of energy Of
steam electricity and water, respect

all commodities. just rs are gold. silver
and other metals and materials. \
niece of paper money may be redeemed

dollars redeemed at Government stores
couple Of years ago. in corncd beef.
! Tho point that Edison is aiming AT,
and rightly. is to find n money system
that does not break down under stress
of war. Metallic redemption always
Ioes. The metal scurries to hiding and
thr paper has to do the business and
fight the war. Edison is right IN seek
ing for a method of redemption that

something,
The money systems Of the world have
broken down. That ours did not seems
more because we did not strain it 50
far rather thnn because of any i'm
{ portant difference over the others Our
bankers tell US we did not have II panic.
but our President says conditions hav"

Mrs. War Bride has forgotten the wars
Of 'TG and II. II English soldiers are
better fighters ,han the Americans, they
haven't shown It yet. They wouldn !
have tried with propaganda to get
America into the war.
Oh. England knew what she was
about. give her credit for that. Our
soldiers did more In finishing the war IN
six months than England did during the
whole fighting. II it wasn't for Amer ,
lea they would be still fighting, ana
Germany would have about licked the
conccit out OF them. American sol l..
diers had no training when they wehl
into the war. but they showed what
they were made Of quicker than inc
English ever did. The English are con :

something be done with these high
class crooks" and that suitable iaws
be passed to protect the public in 10 1ar
as possible.
IL you could see, as ] have seen. tne
different classes and kinds. Of people
at the doors OF these bankrupts you
would 'lay &c on" much harder.
