UNREDEEMED CURRENCY
HELPS BUILD ROUS
PARIS, Feb. 24. (JP)—Good roads
are being built in France out of the
profits from the wear and tear on
paper money.
Forty million francs of the sub
stitute currency printed by Cham
bers of Commerce soon after the war
have never been reclaimed. This
was money of small demoninations
printed to supply small change in
the days of inflation. Much of the
money was lost and distroyed, some
was carried away by travelers and
some was presented too late for re
demption.
The government ruled that part of
the profits that accrued to the
Chambers of Commerce in this man
ner must go to road-building.
