Proverbs 3:6. ' STANDARDS OP VALUE '. The affairs of modern civilization are built upon a founda tion of measurements measurements of time, of weight and distance, and of value. Our social, economic, political, and intellectual life would collapse in chaos if these systems of measurement were to be taken away. The measurements of time, weight, volume, and distance aM determined with scientific accuracy and are standardized by' laws in almost every government on earth. One may easily imagine what would happen if time were not standardized and everything operated on its own time. Traiiis, ships, and airplanes could never make connections and people would never be able to plan a trip in advance. Appointments would be useless, meetings could not be ar ranged, work would le hopelessly delayed, business and in-i dustry would be ruined. j And just suppose that the standards of weight and meas-i lire were subject to change like the weather, instead of be ing protected with infinite care by science and governments.' 'Deeds td property would lx 1 u 1. . 1 1 wouia oe 01 no vuiue, contracts wouia oe meaningless, 101. "what is a ton of coal today might be the equivalent of two ; tons tomorrow or half a ton De conauciea. Science and society have ate' standards of time and distance, weight and volume, be cause our civilization would revert to. the primitive without such standards. . But the standards of value have teen left to fluctuate like the winds, until they are as" 'unreliable as a worn out clock. .,That is one of the chief ailments of the world today, the , cause of untold misfortune and misery during the past two or three years, and during similar periods at regular inter ! vals down through the ages. Of course we have a very definite standard of money in every civilized nation today, but that is superf icial ; there - is nothing to prevent a dollar from buying twice as much now aa it did in 1929, and there is nothing to prevent the ; pendulum from swinging to the opposite extreme in the next ten years. This is called an age of organization and order, but the possessor of a fortune today may see it dwindle to a pit tance tomorrow; and land which is 'practically worthless to day may be worth millions tomorrow. Oho of the weakest spots in our civilization is this aimless fluctuation in" the standards of value. Men have come to believe that the fluctuation is governed by the law of supply and demand, which itself is governed by such vague and un- stable factors as the weather, accidents, appetites, and emo tions. It is no wonder that it cannot be stabilized. However, since the motto of this generation seems to be ''Nothing is impossible," it will do no harm to dream of some day accomplishing our goal and establishing an un changing standard of value. Nothing would bring society greater assurance of progress, stability, and ease-of-mind. fwuijMKijim.iai. g I Other Papers Say: UOVKHNOR KOOSKVFI.T S VISIT Oovemor Roosevelt came and sow Oregon.
