URGENT NEED OF STRENGTHENING OUR
 MONETARY POLICY

The immediate strengthening of our monetary policy is matter of urgent necessity according to Dr. Henry A. E. Chandler, Economist of the National Bank of Commerce in New York In support of his argument pr. Chandler maintains in the April num- Der of the banks magazine, the Commerce Monthly that not since the world broke away from the gold standards has the money Of the United States had a moonng that confidently could be relied upon to keep its value within range of fuctuation consistent with sound business. He says:
 While much thought has been given to the subject during tho last three years at no time among those charged with the chief responsibility of maintaining our money value has there existed agreement as to what the value of money in the near future would be, as to what it should be or as to what was necessary to maintain it on sound basis once the proper value was de- termned
 He says that arc in danger of another per manent fall in value of money unless tbe h,si,oss leaders join with the bankers in supporting q credit policy strictly in accord with sound business deve opment. He continues:
 Several factors contribute to make this movement one of high importance to Am ercan business. On the one hand the exist enee oi an abnormal excess of gold together with the lack of demand from foreign countries for gold for currency purposes oners Gin the absence of extraordinary pre- cau'lenl the possibilities of a marked nfa- ton which concevaby might bring about new and drastic shrinkage in the value of our money. The second fact is that as a re- suit oI the fall in the value of money since i9io very ldrge nulnDer Of the h. duinous and thrifty classes in this country have suffered an automatic shrinkage in the real value of their accumulated savings. and for reasons of broad national policy that go ito the very root of industrial so- ciety and that yitaIly concern our business prosperity in the future, cannot afford to permit another marked shrnkage in the permanent value of money
 Dr. Chandler points out that:
 To business in general much of the ap- parent prosperity accompanying a rapidly falling value of money is often little more than paper prosperity. The large profits and surpluses which are apparently being accumulated often shrink into nothing dur ing the exaggerated reaction that inevitably follows period of feverish activity More over, much of the surpluses that seem to survive the reaction vanishes into thin air |, the market value of the assets is trans Rted into the terms of the real value which | money poeseses a result of it's permanent decline. To large degree this is what

THANKS TO SENATOR BORAH.

Senator Borah in his Ohio speech, declared
 party which not only knows but lives
 up to the belief that every dollar drawn
 from the people through taxes above and
 beyond the amount actually necessary to
 meet the legitimate expenses of the Govern
 mcnt is legalzed robbery, and that the mere
 taking of oath in public service does not
 change the robber patriot
 It has been long time since anyone who holds National attention has said anything that needed saying than this epigram. None has more clearly defined the great need of the hour since Grover Cleveland declared that unnecessary taxa ton is unjust taxation" and reminded Congress that every dollar they waste give to special interests is taken from their fellow citizens, the Government does not make it's money
 Government in this country, National State and municipal is getting busy, omnpresent too inquisitoral, too domineering, costly There is toe much of it by far.
 This country needs revival of the spirit that produced a surplus in the National Treasury during the Arthur and Cleveland Administrations on an in otfne of $400, 0,0o0 900 year. revival of the con ccpts that caused Cleveland declare that surplus is a dangerous thing-a declaration that must be considered in connection with the declarations all ready quoted inveghing against unnecessary taxa ton and unnecessary expenditures a revival of the impulse that caused a storm of righteous indignation ovetithe airst "billion dollar Congress-"
 Production, business, life so interferred with by faddsts, theorists pretended refomers and poli- ticians who think they must do something-with money taken from their fellow citizens'-in order to retain ofce that the whole country is living pro- ducing and doing business on an artificial basis Money is taxed out of the channels of trade ont of business offices out of the family exchequers to such an extent that people live in suspense and Tear of the tax collector The country is exhausting Itself in its efforts to make water run uphill

victory to its unbroken record Of the
season when the local lads gave Ster
ling the short end sof 1914 score

one Of the most exciting played on the

12 to 6 score.
|. Sterling came back much stronger
in the second half but couldn't iocate
tho basket often enough to win. The
visitors succeeded in piling up IA
points to the locals 1e and the last
few minutes Of play kept the. crowd
guessing until the whistle blew.
The, Holyoke girls team was de-
feated by the Sterling team earlier
in the evening. Altho the local girls
were ahead one point at the end OF
the irst quarter. they were unable to
keep the lead. Stsrlins's strbng
points were their centers aud their
forwards. and in fact the whole team
outciassed the local team. -ass'
