ECONOMIST URGES
SILVER AS BASIS
Or. Herman r. Arendtz Says
There Is Not Enough
Gold for All.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, october 22.-Remoneti-
cation of silver as primary cure Tor
the worlds economic troubles has been
proposed by DR.. Herman F. ArendtZ'
Boston economist, in his book. The
Way Out of Depression" published
today.
The likelihood that gold supplies will
decrease further has made that metal
unsuitable as a permanent credit base,
DR.. Arendtz holds. -.
The failure of purchasing power,
he asserts, was not due, primarily, to
any contraction OF credit instruments,
but to a failure in proportionate ex-
pansion of primary money-or gold pro-
duction. 1t can be renedied only by:
q. The discovery of large new sources
of gold: - .s,.
base.
g. The international reconciliation
OF silver.
Competent engineers assure that the
first alternative is highly improbable.
since practically every likely source has
been prospected in vain.
Credit expansion is impractical be-
cause sufficiently close cooperation be-
tween the great central reserve banks
of the world cannot be achieved. safe
investments for any large scale credit
expansions are not available and con-
tinuous expansion of an inverted credit
pyramid on a fixed gold base will create
a world financial situation, OF con-
/; stantly increasing sensitiveness, insta-
: bility and danger of ultimate ana
; catastrophe collapse"
