STANDARDIZATION OF
MONEY is URGED
BY T. NJ. Squawky.

By T. NJ. Squawky.
Since it has perhaps become nee
essary to readjust the value of the
gold money of the United States
according to the market value OF
gold bullion cat least gold money
should be valued according to the
market value of gold bullionl what
pity that all the countries of the
world can not be persuaded to
enter into an agreement for the
world standardization of gold money
at this time at the market value OF
gold bullion.
Perhaps world gold coins could be
standardized by using one-ounce
gold coins as the smallest coin, on
up to the number Of ounce prac-
ticable for coins, regulating world
silver coins in the same way, one
ounce silver coins up to the number
of ounces silver coin would be prac-
ticable for money.
World money long has been need
ed. The traveller from other lands
would find it very fine if he could
travel with the knowledge that his
coins were just the same value in
Japan as in Antarctica; in the
United States as in Russia. 1t long
has been an impeachment to travel,
commerce and world peace for each
country to coin money not accord
ing to a standard set for world
money, but by its own national
standard.
If each country could be per-
suaded to use ounce and up silver
and gold coins, regulating the value
according to the world market on
gold and siver, then one could travel

destructive storms; upsets in legis-
lative bodies; foreign fairs cause
trouble; disturbed or changed re-
lationS between the nations. Dan
ger of extreme aggression of ma
lions toward each other as the re-
suit of quarrels relating to treaties
or alliances.
From our own observation we
judge that labor strikes are liable to
occur this month. Some scandal
involving high governmental officials
will arise. Also the death of some
prominent official in the govern
ment will cause the public consider
able excitement. Roosevelt will
make considerable progress toward
the sterilization of the dollar. Air
accidents will occur.
Congress will be upset generally.
We might lose some member of
congress in an air accident. The
stock market is due for another pc
Rod of sensational activity. The
miners will benefit through legiSla-
ton. But above all other issues the
dollar still holds the spotlight.
The eclipse falls in opposition to
the great fixed star, Regulus,
significator of rulers having great
power. This is not very good
position for dictators so watch Hit
ler's moves at this period. In all
probability he is due for some con-
siderable set-backs, at home and
abroad. Roosevelt will come into
the spotlight again with some radi-
cally new form Of economic stabiliza-
ton. Some attempt to suppress the
press is likely to be presented to
congress.
There will be danger of more
earthquakes and explosions in vari-
GUS parts of the world. The key
word of the month is disruption.

BOTH SIDES GIVEN TO
MALLORY PLANT ATTACK

MALLORY PLANT ATTACK
By an Employee and Observer.
The President said ANY organi-
zation that can not pay a living
wage has no right to exist in our
national life"
When the NRA went into effect,
P. r. Mallory Company adopted the
toy code for their whole plant. The
bulk of their business is in manu-
featuring electrical appliances, etc.
They also published in The Times
how they had increased their force
and raised wages. This was in effect
but a short while, but long enough
to make people think P. R Mallory
Company had conformed to all the
rules of the NRA.
In one department where all work
is on production basis some piece
work rates have been cut one-half
of the original price. In number
of cases it is impossible to make 30
cents an hour, if by any chance you
are making a decent rate, the time
study men slip up behind and time
the job, then cut it, without you
ever knowing the difference.
Places like this have tendency
to lower the standard of living to
nothing short of grim poverty and
squalor. If the employees lived &C
cording to their wages they would
all have shacks on White river. In
stead of a helpful force in our in
dustriaI life it is a negative force
pulling against progress, depressing
the standard Of living, destructive to
the contentment and well being of
our social life.
Times are changing rapidly now,
and the period is not far off when
industrial organizations as un-Amer-
lean as P. R. Mallorys will be reck-
oned with and I want to be in the
front ranks when that day is here.
Editors NOte-The P. r. NAL
lOry Company says it is operating
under the electrical code and has
not been operating under the toy
code recently, due to slack bust
ness in toy lines.
The minimum of the electrical
code is 81 cents an hour with fast
workers able to make 40 cents an
hour. Some departments are
working thirty-six hours a week
and some as few as fifteen hours.
The company says that on new
items manufactured that some
times a piece-work rate is set and
then cut later when it is found
that it can be done more quickly.
The company says regardless of
this that every piece-worker is as
Sured 80 cents an hour for expert
enced workers and 26 cents as
minimum for beginners. If the
worker falls below, because of
slOwness, the company must make
up the difference in wages. This
has been done, company officials
said.

could drown. Prosperity would
be just around the corner.
Many things prevent cur en-
tire population from pulling to-
gether in a united effort to put
America back on its feet, crime,
Seihshness, lack Of ethics in bust
ness, and last but not the least
OF a long list are the dyed-in-the-
wool politicians.
If Mr.. Mills could forget about
the Republican party for a year
or two and, as an American citi-
zen, give his aid to another great
American, instead of criticising
Mr.. Roosevelt and the administra-
ton, he would look much better
in the public eye, and, at The
same time, serve his country in
its war against the depression.

Ogden Mills recent criticism of
the administrators and our
Presidents efforts to attain econ
omic recovery may be what can
be called constructive criticism
and, while perhaps it may not do
any harm, it seems to the writer
Mr.. Mills would have done better

bunk to the public.
What does Mr.. Mills suggest
Mr.. Hoover would have done had
he been reelected President?

Gold and silver would perhaps be
found to have a higher market value
in some countries than others, but
this need not be a serious draw
back. If one presented an ounce Of
gold coin it would buy just what
ever its market value happened to
be in that locality.
In travelling from one part of the
United States to another, one will
find the same thing. A silver dollar
will buy very little in some places,
while in others it will buy whole
lot. This is a condition that will
perhaps always prevail, for the SIM
pie fact that in some places there
is great scarcity, in others great
plenty. But the ounce up gold coins
and the ounce up silver coins would
perhaps be the only way other
countries would accept a gold and
silver standard. You simply could
not expect England to want dollars
and us to want pounds, Mexico to
want dollars or the United States
to want pesos as standard coins.
