C. L. situation in which the country | finds itself following the war. Prof. Fisher's statements and. arguments for changing our present monetary systems and currency basis as a means of adjusting our present economic condition are considered theoretical and academic by financ- | ters and bankers in general, according | to the statement of several of them. The American dollar is still able to hold its place and its full face value on the money markets of the world, in spite of the fact that the British pound, the French franc, the Russian ruble, the German mark and the money of practically every other nation has depreciated to an unprece- dented degree. "Bankers do not look with favor on theories for changing our financial system or of making a dollar of fluc- tuating value from day to day as has been suggested by Professor Fisher," said E. D. Hulburt, president of the Merchants Ioan and Trust company. "Someone is likely to be hurt. The best and quickest way to get back to the prewar values of the dollar, to my mind, is for the public to absorb the war debts. This is an inflation because it represents losses and prop- erty destroyed which must be rzpro- dueed again. Shortening of working hours and loss of production are also reducing the purchasing power of the dollar." "As I see it," said John Mitchell, president of the Illinois Trust and Savings bank, "the terriblz losses of property and of production during the war and the present demands that are greater than the supply, are responsible for conditions. When production gets up to normal the de- preciation of the dollar will have dis- appeared. It isn't a seurce of alarm to me how much the workingman is paid, but it is serious if we lower our production and still demand high wages. This situation can't continue. We must, all practice economics un- til production of materials from the ground and our factories has caught up with demand." "If we can get people to economize and also to take up the government's war obligations, then we can curtail the expansion and inflation that ex- ists today," said Frank O. Wetmore, president of the First National bank. "The biggest part of the federal re- serve notes are based on govern- ment security under obligation of member banks. If you can get the war obligations into investor's hands, you automatically contract the circu- lation issued by the federal reserve banks.

Too High to Lend Our neighbor, who has a great habit of borrowing, came over one afternoon to borrow some baking powder and 1 told her I had none. In the course of conversation she men- tioned the high price of baking powd- ers, when my brother spoke up: "Look on the grocery bill and see how much they charged me for the can I got this morning."--Exchange. "Knocked Into a Cocked Hat" The meaning of this expression is not generally known. "Cocked hat" was a variety of the game of tenpins, in which only three were used, set up at angles of a triangle. When, in bowling at tenpins, all were knocked down except the three at the cor- ners, the set was said to be "knocked into a cocked hat." By a Certain Blind Poet | ..
