WHY THIS SECRECY?
Considerable speculation and criticism has followed
the with-holding from the public of the full text of the
beer bill, which has been in the hands of the Governor
for several days with the promise that it would he re
leased for public scrutiny.
One of the remarkable features of this session ot
the Legislature is the jockeying on this measure and the
appropriation bill. This has aroused the suspicion that
there are things in the two measures whch will not be
palatable to the public, and by deferring them until the
last moment and after all chance has passed for criti
cism, the Legislature hopes to escape whatever onus
might apply as ,a result. - - —'
REMONETIZATION
It has been suggested that the President be given
the power to reduce the content in the gold dollar to 50
per cent as against the 10 per cent now prevalent in the
form of alloy.
Which brings forward a suggestion offered by an
eminent English economist for remonetization of gold
whereby the"nations the world would create 25 per cent
additional gold reserves by the simple process calling
all of their gold and, by international agreement, reissue
it at one-fourth increase in its present value per ounce.
In this manner it was proposed to liquidate World
War debts and at the same time readjust the value of
gold to meet the needs of civilization for a greater vol
ume of the basic value of commerce.
It is estimated there is approximately $12,000,000,
000 worth of gold in circulation thruout the world, in- j
eluding jewelry and coinage.
By remonetization on a 25 per cent basis, this would
increase the volume to $15,000,000,000. With the remone
tization would come a revaluation of silver, which would
be entitled to advance 25 per cent.
One can readily understand what this would mean
to the gold miner in enabling him to work gravels and
ores which are now prohibitive owing to their low gold
content.
The modern marriage is on trial, says an Eastern
college professor. But the learned gentleman must re
member that Hollywood is but a small fraction of the
nation, and possibly he meant tidal marriage.
