FIRST READER IN
ECONOMICS
BY Sam Samson


How can the value of the Ameri-
can Dollar be maintained as it is in
proportion to commodity values and
have approximately the same value
in fifty or one hundred years from
now.
That can only be done by the
enactment of honest and just laws
that will regulate the service of the
dollar and the number of dollars in
use so that all Of the people of all
professions shall have the same SER
vice from that dollar. For any gov
eminent to borrow money only in
viteS destruction of itself in some
future time, for the supply and de-
mand sets the values at all times
and as the dollar, whether it is
bonded or not, regulates all values.
The reason for the fact that over
fifty-three billion dollars in secur-
tiles are tax exempt now it is be-
1eved that by so doing it would
bolster up and increase the credit Of
the u. s. Government.
For under our system the u. S.
Treasurer has been depending on
the banks and fianciers for the Of
Ter from them the amount or price
that they wish to pay for interest
bearing bonds When in fact there
can be no difference in value except,
for the fact they are tax-exempt

bonds and draw interest, and there
fore of greater value than the dol
lar in circulation. The bonded dol
lar of government bond specifies 1t
shall be purchased for the dollar
and it also specifies that the gov
eminent shall pay its own dollar for
them. And as no foreign or other
values are a part of this transaction
these bonds when released by the
government are an obligation by
them tc be paid for whether the
money is collected from the people
or not. Therefore the bonded dol
lar has the equal value with the dol
lar in circulation plus the interest
and tax exemption, for the same
property values and the same serv-
ice is rendered to the same people
and as the dollar is only medium
of exchange and the real wealth is
in the service and the unity Of the
people.
TAX-EXEMPT DOLLAR IS UN-
JUST for the reason the producer
that has his values that are real
wealth invested in q factory or
farm has not the same opportunity
to use the bonded dollar as the
bankers and the money lenders
have that produce nothing.
That the government bonds In
reality were not government bonds
and should never have been treat
ed as such, for the reason this GER

Thirty Years Ago

Thirty years ago the total enroll

pupils were enrolled In high school;
"a in the eighth grade; IS in the
sixth and seventh; 81 in the fourth
and fifth; A in the second and
third and 81 in the primary grade.
The school board was thinking of
securing another teacher for the
primary grades as 81 pupils were too
many for one teacher to handle.
]. F. Perry had leased five acre
tract for two years with the total
amount of sales being $17l4.48 or
return Of $3.50 per acre returns in
cash. The returns received were
due to the fact that he had set out
plants between the young
fruit trees. He was receiving the
returns from these plants and at
the same time the fruit trees were
growing to the fruit bearing size.

Pineapple Suggestions

Canned pineapple is a wholesome
food and one that is pleasing to
most individuals. Nutrition re-
search has shown that it is full OF
energy-building natural sugars, that
it supplies food-iron and copper
to enrich the blood, and other min
erals to reinforce the alkalinity OF
our bodies. It also rates high in the
protective vitamins.. A B and G. II
is a delicious dessert served as ii
comes from the can, but it is even
more pleasing combined with other
ingredients.
Here are a few new ideas for using
pineapple:

PIRATES DOWN
LIONS 1914

The Yakima Pirates came back
for revenge last Friday night to take
the Kennewick Lions 1914.
Although the Lions played hard
the Pirates who outweighed the To-
Gals came down the field for long
marches to score. Kennewick
Lions had the bah only four or five
times during the game, but when
they got it they made yards. Yaki-
ma got the breaks by recovering
three fumbles in Kennewick terri
tory.
Both teams were good extensively
and poor defensively. It was an ex-
citing game all the way through,
and many Kennewick fans attended.

ttftcate or bond Is q part OF the unit
value it represents therefore it be-
comes a stock certificate. For ex-
ample: if a corporation issues
shares Of stock and after that de-
cides to issue bonds and sell them to
the public, they could not specify
that the share Of stock should be
used in paying for those bonds, for
that would only increase the num-
Der of shares and decrease the value
of each share, but that q certain
unit of value would be required that
had no connection with those stocks
and were of foreign matter. It Is
plainly seen thatif the corporation
demands that unit Of shares Of
the same origin as the corporate
stock Of shares be used, those bonds
would also become stock.
The following will explain how
unjust and unbusiness-like the pres
ent monetary system Is. We agree
that this government is large cor
poration that owns all Of the Unit
ed States and the only stock or
shares it issues is the dollar. Under
the present system this corporation
issues what is called government
bond equal in share and value to
the shares of stock or dollar, and
the corporation specifies that the
same stock or dollar be used in pay
ing for that bond, and in redeeming
the bond by the corporation 1t spec
ifies that the same stock or dollar
be used. Therefore those bonds are
stock and cannot be called bonds, OF
obligations to pay.
For further proof, we state the
following facts: During the time Of
the World War when we were sup
plying Europe with men, money and
material in large volumes, yet from
1914 to 1920, according to the
Worlds Almanac our national
wealth increased in dollars during
the six years, two hundred and
ninety-eight billion, eight hundred
and sixty-eight million. There can
be no Just or sound reason for this
increase In value II the government
had borrowed with the promise to
pay back for the supply and de-
mand will regulate values at all
times. But the fact that these bonds
specified that the dollar should be
used for the selling Of those bonds
and the dollar should be used for
redeeming them, that made those
bonds q part of that dollar and I
can see no way of separating the
two. For that reason when twenty
five billion dollars were issued 1t
had the same effect as II the pur-
chasing power Of this government
had been increased to that amount.
AS the purchasing power was there
It set the values on all personal, cor
porate and private properties.
From the year Of 1870 to the year
1914 the increase in national wealth
was one hundred and sixty-five bill
lion.
When nine billion, six hundred
and eighty million dollars In bonds
were redeemed it had the same ef-
feet on private and corporate prop
critics it reduced their values ac-
cording to the Worlds Almanac OF
1932 to the extent Of over one hum
bred and twenty-six billion. Which
depreciation fell mostly on the pro-
Queer and consumer.
