unable to buy it may bring their

Washington, Aug. 8 .—The trea-
sury has embarked upon the issu-
ance of new paper money against a
backing of silver, and thus far has
run off more than $24,000,000 of
notes, Secretary Morgenthau an-
nounced.
The treasury is turning out the
new notes, pursuant to the silver
purchase act, just as fast as is hu-
manly possible, Morgenthau said.
But from the standpoint of cur-
rency inflation Morgenthau is ad-
hewing to the treasury’s conserva-
tive policy of limiting the new note
issues to the amount which the
treasury spends in buying silver to
back them.
From this angle, Morgenthau
made it plain he has not fallen into
step with silverites like Senator
Thomas (Dem.) of Oklahoma, who
plans to take the issue of expanded
currency “to the people’’ unless
President Roosevelt and Morgen-
thau enlarge the note issues.
Under the plan favored by silver-
ites, but in law made optional with
Morgenthau, about three times as
much currency could be issued as
is now being turned out against the
same quantity of silver.
Instead of limiting the issue to
the aggregate market price of the
silver backing, at prices of 40 to
50 cents an ounce, the silverites
would expand the issue to the total
theoretical or statutory value of
the silver at $1.29 an ounce.
In disclosing the treasury’s poli-
cy, Morgenthau went only this far:
“The policy for the moment is to
issue notes up to the cost. We will
keep on printing until we have
printed notes equal to the cost of
the silver we have in the treasury.’’
The cost of the treasury's silver
holdings, which thus would show
how large the issue of silver cer-
tificates is to be, Morgenthau de-
clined to indicate further than to
point to the treasury’s daily state-
ment.
This statement shows $47,000,000
of silver bullion on hand, with the
the prices paid and the quantity
in ounces not disclosed.
While limiting the note issue to
aggregate silver cost, the treasury
in fixing the backing for each note
values the silver at $1.28. The quan-
tity of silver representing the dif-
ferences between this statutory

Girls’ achievement day, held at
Canton on July 23, was a revelation
of what a girl in her early teens is
capable of doing. There was not a
dress styled that would not have
been a compliment to an expert
seamstress. Three girls made com-
plete outfits consisting of hat, fab-
ric gloves and dress at a cost of
less than $1.50, that when compar-
atively priced could not have been
purchased for $5.00. The dresses
were without exception of good col-
or combination and of color parti-
cularly becoming to the wearer.
According to Miss Odessa Winn,
a former club girl who judged the
wardrobes, the dresses were of such
uniform quality and workmanship
that it was difficult to choose the
best. Club girls have come to real-
ize that good style and excellent
workmanship can transform ordin-
ary materials into an extraordi-
nary garment. They have realized
that it is as praise worthy to con-
struct a garment beautifully or to
pack an attractive jar of fruit as
it is to paint a picture or write a
poem.
The girls planned their ward-
robe demonstration for 1935 and de-
cided that they would place the em-
phasis on health habits and person-
al appearance with a smaller
amount of emphasis on clothing.
Clothing emphasis is to be devoted
to selection, suitability and care.
Girls plan to improve their posture,
groom themselves better and form
good habits according - to a well
constructed schedule. Next year
they expect, besides making attrac-
tive clothes, to become better look-
ing and healthier young women.
They will check themselves in a
business-like manner four times
during the year thereby discovering
their weak points and establishing
better health habits,
Dorothy Crawley of Owlet Green
was awarded first place for the
best dress made by a wardrobe de-
monstrator. Dorothy Parks of El-
berta was given first place for do-
ing the best expansion work as a
wardrobe demonstrator and Anne
Wilson was given first place for the
best garment made by a co-opera-
tor. Marie Davidson and Mary Lou
WALLACE.
Our singing school, taught by
Willie Westmoreland of Watkins
will close Friday, the 10th. There
