SILVER TO ADVANCE

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The theory that naturalization of sil- yer is basically a step toward na- tional and world monetary stab- ilization has been privately ad- vanced by a well known Govern ment economist.

 In the first place the silver price has been set by naturalization according to his opinion, and will advance the world price of silver and it may easily lead other na- tions to monetize silver.
