In GOLD, what win the gold dollar buy?
Rack in 1927 we had merry Christ

everyOne--and the bankers haven't gotten
over the idea yet--thaG the only thing
Of value was a certificate which might
be traded on the New York exchange
Land was of no value. man could not
borrow money ON hts business which
might CREATE new wealth because the
bankers could loan money st 12 per cent
In the ''caLl" market. No honest business

OF value the cupidity Of a group of
gamblers called stock traders which pap

that was not earning 1% per annum

the earnings OF the business represented
by the stOck-rather than the cupidity
of gambling pubEic--calIed upon to
pay back the cost of the stock, At would
perhaps not pay out in one Hundred years
That isn't much value to living persons.
And so it was that the public found out
that paper profits were not barrels
of oil or bushels Of wheat which some
one else NEEDS. Billions upon billions
of dollars represented by printed slips
of paper became worthless or worth
whatever they Will earn in the
lifetime Of a mature man, when every
one tried to convert them into tokens OF
commodity worth.
We suggested that the social security
savings might be paid in GOLD. That
what of the earIy-day history of Montana?
Before the days of roads, let alone rail-
roads, Montana miners were rolling I'm

gold. It was the medium of exchange.
Yet. the man who had gold was by no
means rich. Riches went TO such men as

So he hauled in wagOnlOads of provi-
sions TO exchange for gold. A s. barrel
Of flour brought $50 I'm gold. Apples,
worth cents, sold for 81 each Gold
was not the measuring stick Of wealth.
Instead, boots and flour were valuable.
Days when 81 day was good wages for
common labor, elsewhere, found Montana
miners poorer with $40 day.

just what constitutes a merry
Christmas?
It was just a year ago at this time
that our small SON set us TO thinking
when in the generous spirit of the holiday
season he said:
''Dad, wish that every person i'm
the world could have Christmas present
of q million dollars
1t was q generous gesture that only
a D-year-Old boy could heap into hiB
Christmas spirit Of good wishes. How
ever, IL furnished food for Thought
throughout the year. What world it
would be, with every man a millionaire!
Teddy envisiOned every man enjoying
a life Of luxury, without wOrzy-wlEh-
out work IL was the Nth degree Of
social security, i'm his mind We encour-
aged him TO imagine everyone closing
up house, rushing to the Rivera, 70
winter a. other miifomaares spend the
winters We reveIed tn the Thought of
people who had never before enjoyed
travel having the thrill of going to
Europe in the luxury liners Of which we
have read We tied the luxury liners mp
at. the dock and aIl the members of
the crew-who also were millionaire
joined the others to bask tn the sunshine
ON the warm sands. A world holiday!
''Hey, Dad the young man suddenly
exclaimed. There's something wrong
with this"
And there is: Even q 0-year-OId boy
realizes that a million dollars placed in
