.'..' BETRAYED OR BETRAYER?
. When Leqnor F. Loree; of VPail Street, jumped up in
meeting, waved a $ 20 bill and declared that the ending of
the gold standard was a heinous violation of trust, lie started
a lot of people thinking along lines he hadn't intended. His
point, of course, was simple enough. lie had in his hand a
pibiU., When it. went into circulation it was worth ?20 in
gold; today jt is not; hence the government has done some
thing horrible. ., . ., , ,. . ,r . ,
But the spectacle of this Wall streel man beating his breast
is.othihg less than grotesque when you put it up against its
' proper background,, , Part of that background is the farm
belt. In the farm belt there are a lot of .farmers jumping up
in meeting and waving bits of paper mortgages, which were
6ijtricted when it took one bushel of wheat to buy a dollar
and which must be paid when it takes two bushels to buy
a dollar , . . , , '
, The farmers have been the victims of a betrayal quite as
cruel as that which harrows tlie soul of Mr. Loree--ueller,
rjerhaps, for no one supposes that Mr. Loree is in danger j
of losing his home and his bread and butter. Furthermore,
the betrayal that came to them came while the dollar was
firmly, anchored to gold. They were .undone by , "sound
money" money which for all its soundness, was worth one
thing when they borrowed it and another when they had to
pay it back.. Their demands for relief are just as valid as
. Mr. Loree s more, so, perhaps, for .'our departure from gold
has not brought the well-fed Mr. Loree into danger of hunger
and tjhe'lpss of everything he owns..
And that isn't all there is to this background, either. This
js hardly the psychological moment for a Wall street man to
get up on his hind legs and talk about "a violation of trust."
There are a good many Americans today who possess beauti
ful pieces of paper, for which they paid Wall street good
money. Wall street pledged its faith that these bits of paper
pmld be redeemed at the price that was paid for them, and
that they would bear interest steadily until the moment of
redemption carrte. But today you can buy lots of those pieces
of paper for a nickel on the dollar. There are many more
'that aren'i; worth even that.
, If we are going to wave pieces of paper and yqll about
)jetrayals, let's start with farm mortgages and Wall street
bonds. After all, Mr. Loree's ?20 bill will still buy quite a
'few .'groceries. . .

wrote to President Roosevelt that un

of governmental credit threaten as a
result or the present monetary procedure.
(The price of domestic gold was
fiiced today at $33.76 an ounce, un
changed from yesterday, with the dol

world gold price upward from an
opening of $34.41. ' . r
Officials -expressed no perturbation
at Bprague 'a dire predictions.. From
Warm Springs came word that Mr.
Roosevelt was resolved to go ahead
with his plan for Increasing commod
ity prices by forcing the price of gold
upward through purchases at home
and abroad.
In his letter. Sprague called atten
tion to the fact that some issues of
government bonds had slipped below
par.
Joining this to the fact that the
government must borrow huge sums
within the next year or so, he pre
dicted that if the present trend con
tinues. Investors will be unwilling to
put their money in government
bonds.
- The result, he said., would be that
the administration would be forced
to meet Its obligations with: new is
