Yesterday

Colonel
J.

gave
a
very
interesting
address
on
gold
as
a
financial
medium,
at
the
weekly
luncheon
of
the
Prince
Rupert
Rotary
Club.
He
explained
the
suspension
of
gold
payments
by
Britain
and
its
effect
on
that
and
other
countries.
He
said
in
part:
"In

day
gold
is
almost
universally
used
amongst
the
highest
developed
countries.
It
is
a
striking
example
of
the
survival
of
the
fittest.
Oold
is
of
equal
quality
in
its
pure
state,
so
that
no
matter
if
it
is
secured
in
the
Yukon
or
Australia
it
is
the
same
for
all
practical
purposes.
Oold
has
large
value
in
small
bulk,
is
durable,
easily
converted
from
bullion
to
coin
and
vice
versa
at
little
cost
and
without
loss.
It
has
a
low
melting
point.
"It
has
been
said
that
the
pro
duction
-of
.gold
is
not
keeping
up
with
the
requirementsvand
that
the
fall
in
prices
and
business
depression
are
due
to
inadequate
supplies
of
gold.
This
theory
is
flatly
denied
by
the
McMillan
committee.
This
committee
was
created
by
the
Ramsay
MacDonald
socialist
government
and
comprised
not
only
the
best
bankers
of
Oreat
Britain,
but
113
grains
of
gold
which
costs
one
round
and
ship
it
to
Canada
and
sell
it
to
the
mint
here
and
get
$1.83
2-3.
This
will
be
done
to
the
-xtent
of
$1,000,000
which
will
balance
the
international
trade
by
removing
from
the
exchange
market
the
demand
for
the
surplus
of
$1.-300.000.
This
transaction,
In
actual
tact,
is
not
done
by
the
merchants
but
by
experts
in
foreign
exchange
find
gold
shipments.
It
is
a
very
volved
transaction
and
the
profit
is
very
smalL
"England,
by
suspending
igold
payments,
has
prevented
stabilizing
gold
transactions
to
be
made.
In
other
words,
the
pound
'will
no
longer
buy
113
grains
of
gold
because
the
Bans
of
Er.;lor.i,
rhich
Is
the

depository
for

will

So
why
did
England
have
further
and
say
that
were
the
sup

of

greater
the
same
conditions
would
prevail.
Gold
Standard
"Now
what
is
the
gold
standard?
"I
will
try
0
explain
it
as
lt
appears
to
be
rather
haay
to
some
people.
Theoretically
it
means
that
countries
having
a
gold
standard
or
using
gold
as
their
medium
for
exchanging
commodities
win
always
exchange
their
paper
currency
for
gold.
In
Canada
the
dollar
is
cotiiposed
of
2322
grains
of
pure
gold.
Therefore,
Dominion
$1.00
notes
should
be
exchangeable
for
that
amount
of
gold.
But
in
actual
fact
it
means
that
gold
is
simply
used
to
adjust
international
balances
of
trade.
I
will
give
a
simple
illustration,
which
applied,
of
course,
before
Oreat
Britain
sus
pended
gold
payments.
Supposing
Oreat
Britain
had
bought
$1,000.-000
worth
more
of
goods
and
services
than
she,
had
sold
to
foreign
countries,
the
demand
for
foreign
bills
to
pay
the
foreign
countries
would
be
greater
than
the
supply.
to
suspend
gold
payments?
Well,
France
not
only
suspended
gold
payments
a
few
years
back,
but
settled
her
debts
at
20c
on
the
dol
lar
when
she
established
her
franc
at
4c
in
Canadian
money
instead
of
20c
In
1014.
In
other
words,
she
repudiated
80c
of
her
debt
external
and
Internal.
Oreat
Britain
didn't
do
this,
but
while
she
suspended
gold
payments
from
1914
to
1925
she
then
re-established
her
currency
at

People
ot
Trince
Rupert,
Dear
Folk:
North
Pole,
December
t.
1931
People
often
wonder
how
I
can
visit
so
many
people
at
Christmas.
How
am
I
able
to
make
to
many
people
happy
all
In
one
day?
'It's
the
majlc
of
the
kcason
that
does
it.
People
are
in
the
mood
to
be
happy.
Some
are
happy
because
they
give
and
others
are
happy
because
they
receive.
On
that
day
men
are
no
longer
the
grasplnr
selfish
creatures
that
you
often
find
them.
They
relax
and
Ihrir
real
selves
come
to
the
fore.
The
magic
of
the
season
Is
on
them
and
when
people
are
like
that
I,
the
spirit
ot
Christmas,
ran
work
wonders.
All
you
need
Is
to
get
the
Christmas
Idea
in
your
minds
and
I
ran
easily
do
the
rest
Watch
for
me
on
Christmas
Day.
