j. S. BANKS SYSTEM
Morgan Partner BIames Con-
dition on Failure to Keep
Pace With Expansion.

NEW YORK, April 2l.-Thomas w.
Lamont Of J. P. Morgan & Co., writ
ing In the issue Of Golfers, out today.
declared that mo civilized country Of
modern times has suffered so cruelty
from unscientific and inefficient cur
rency and banking systems as has the
United States in the last 145 years"
within that period" Lamont con-
tinued, the country has gone through
q long series Of banking collapses, due
largely to like causes. and bringing to
the American community prodigious
losses.
"The money panic Of 1907
was but another in the long series OF
disasters. The serious banking troubles
of 1881 added another chapter to the
melancholy record: and unfortunate
Developments Of even more recent date
have only served to accentuate the Sit
uation"
Reform Slow After 1907.
He pointed out it took seven years
following the disastrous currency
panic of 1907 to bring about banking
reform SUFFICIENT to get the Federal Re
serve system established and added:
obviously the country cannot wait
another seven years to bring about the
changes necessary to prevent recur-
renee Of its more recent difficulties"
Before outlining two remedies Of his
own. Lamont wrote:
Contrary to the expressed opinion
Of many persons, this sad history has
been due. not to the Vaccinations or
deviltry of men or groups Of men, but
largely to the inherent conditions sur
rounding the astonishingly rapid de-
velopment Of a whole continent.
In banking, the country's experience
and mobile resources have never kept
pace with its expansion and with its
changing conditions.
"Unwise, reckless and. in occasional
individual instances, dishonest manage
ment have added to the difficulties
Remedies Proposed.
In discussing his proposed remedies,
he says:
mo thorough going banking reforms
can be brought about until two vital
changes have been accomplished.
The first is to bring all the CONNER
cial banks Of the country small as well
as large, under the single aegb a the
Federal Reserve system.
THE second is to establish sensible
provisions for regional branch banking,
the geographical limits for each region
to be carefully worked out and regu-
lated.
Then we should have something
worth talking about. Such reforms,
brought about gradually, ought to be-
gin to yield to the country some meas
ure Of banking stability"

VALUE Of DOLLAR
LAST FIXED IN 1900
Gold Content, Again Lively
Issue, Has ,Bobbed Up
Many Times Before.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The gold content of the dollar, now
a lively issue, has bobbed up from time
to time ever since the first gold dollar
was made under an act passed in 1892.
The content Of the present gold dol
lar Is fixed by an act OF Congress-
adopted March II, 1900, that estab-
lished the dollar as containing. 2S.8
grains Of gold 0.900 fine This makes
the dollar contain geo parts Of gold and
100 parts of alloy. x
Established Two Units. -
In 1892. following Inauguration OF
the Federal Government, Congress es-
tablished the first monetary system Of
the United States, with two units The
gold dollar contained PATS grains of
pure gold and the silver dollar 37125
grains Of pure silver. The ratio of gold
to silver was / to Is and both were
legal tenders, thus giving the Nation .
double standard.
Various changes were made untfl
1873, when the unit of value Of the gold
dollar was set at the standard weight
of 25.8 grains, 0900 fine. In 1873 COIN
age of silver was authorized, and it was
provided they should be legal tender
at their nominal value for all debts,
except where otherwise expressly stipu-
lated in the contract.
Silver Defeated.
In the years Immediately following.
politics centered about the gold and
silver question until in the late 90s the
silver campaigns Of William J. Bryan
were fought out and ended in defeat
for silver.
When the act OF 1900 established the
gold dollar as "the standard unit of
value" and made 1t the duty Of the Sec
retary Of the Treasury to maintain all
forms Of money issued or coined by the
United States at parity Of value with
this standard, it also was provided that
the change should not affect the legal
tender quality Of the silver dollar or
other money coined or issued by the
United States.

MUSINGS REGARDING STATE
FEDERATION CONVENTION

Of all absorbent interest to organ
lied labor and their friends in Mis-
soula the past week was the Conven-
ton of Montana State Federation of
Labor.
AS the time approached for its as
semblage, considerable apprehension
was felt and expressed as to the pos
sibility of a successful meeting this
year. With the widespread unemploy-
ment throughout the State and result
ant restitution, the hopeless prospect
for immediate resumption of indus
trial activity, and the mass importa-
ton of men to do the work on which
many of our local workers have de-
pended in the past for their livelihood,
the outlook for a labor convention
was anything but promising.
Now that the meet is over, and we
look back upon the four days during
which our cheerful and pleasant but
earnest and sincere guests were with
us, we are indeed happy that the meet

appropriations, how comprehensive
are the public improvement programs,
how extensive is the amount of work
required from each of the men and
women given employment, unless they
are given in return for their labor
enough to provide for themselves and
their loved ones all the necessities of
life required to live in comfort and
deeency, the depression win continue.
1t is at last being recognized and
acknowledged that it is the purchas-
ing power of the consumers, who also
are the producers, which keeps the
wheels of industry going. That be-
ing recognized, it follows that when
the wheels of industry slow up or
stop, it becomes necessary to increase
rather than decrease the amount alot-
ted to the masses, who are the pro-
ducers and consumers, from the prod
ucts of the wheels of industry or the
malady from which we are suffering
will be aggravated instead of rem
edied.
1t matters not whether we call it
proceeds, wages, salaries, bonuses,
pensions, or adjusted compensation, it
is all the same thing. Properly man
aged it mean a just and proportion
ate remuneration for service rendered
either as an immediate or deferred
payment.
In order that such arrangement may
be made possible, it naturally follows
that those, who have been %appropriat-
ing to themselves the producers just
share of the things produced, be re-
strained from such further misappro-
priation. 1t does not matter by which
agency such Misrepresentation is per-
%petrated, whether we call it profit,
rent, interest, inheritance, fraud,
s~poliation, or plain graft.
In general terms, there are only
three ways by which a person may ac-
quire the things produced. Either he
must work for it, it must be given to
him, or he must steal it. All of the d.
verse means by which some people
have acquired their vast holdings over
and above what they themselves have
produced by their own labor are but

THE SPIRIT OF THE CONVENTION

The spirit of the State Federation Conventions in Ana
entertainment. The entertainment and good fellowship
were not lacking in Missoula but there was a deeper
spirit prevailing. Men were more tense in their actions

cussing serious and vital matters and they did it in a
serious way. The delegates acted as if and though the
tate OF the working masses lay in their hands. If other
tional Recovery is not far off.
Another spirit that was prevalent was one of pro-
gresslyeness. The words classconsciousness" was stress
ognized and in the recognition of this fact a spirit Of mar
mony and real brotherhood made itself felt. There was
none of the pickering among locals as has been manifest
IN the past. Labor in Montana is Weakening from its
deep slumber to a realization of its latent power. This
spirit was the first sign of recovery yet seen in this state.

subdivisions of the last two general
methods mentioned.
When the process has been develop
ed to such proportion that not only
have the products of labor been APP
%propriated but also the means Of pro-
duction as we'll, and the producers are
denied the privilege to produce more
until the surplus has been used up,
all the while they must starve because
of an overabundance of food, go in
rags because of an overabundance of
clothes, and must live in novels be-
cause of too many modern houses, we
have what some learned men have
chosen to call a Depression"
We may think we are smart, but

of the recruits learned of the decision,
demanded that they be re~instated, and

William Weaver. The mass meetings.

was taken under consideration.
1t was while the meeting was in
session, on the ball field near the

from Winchester arrived, and replied
to a hooting by making the brief a
