THAT APPHAL.
The News publishes 111 another
place an appeal fro in the New;
York Chamber of Commerce to
voters all over the country !
unite iu a vigorous effort
the selection of delegates to poli-
tical conventions of both great
parties who will advocate clear
and distinct platform utterances
in favor of the maintenance of the
present gold standard of value."
Who can blame them? The
present financial situation
proven a rich harvest for
bankers and financiers ot
street.
But the people! In all fairness
and honesty, we ask if a policy
that has caused the issue of $260,-
000,000 ot interest bearing bonds
in time of peace is a wise one?
