Mir feature ot the
Speech of Senator Carter Glass on
"Inflation"
(From Congressional Record for April 27)
(Continued from page 4)
States Treasury over night and
It would! if people would demand
redemption. Experience over a
long period of years, however,
has determined that even less
than 4 percent ' is required to
meet the redemption demands in
ordinary times, unless ; ople
should be unpatriotic enough to
raid their own Treasury; and
this feature of the amendment
provides a 4-percent redemption
fund for the retirement of these
greenbacks.
While I do not advocate that
section of the amendment. I
again say it is the most defens
ible provision of the amendment.
I do not advocate it primarily
because the Federal Reserve Sys
tem is now, with its gold reserve,
prepared to expand to the extent
of a billion dollars more than the
proposed $3,000,000,000 ot green
backs. Because business is not
being transacted, it does not ex
pand; and because confidence has
not yet been restored, It does not
expand; and are we here doing
anything to restore confidence?
Why, we have literally destroy
ed the mort-gage bond market of
this country. The Federal land
banks, with all the millions of
assistance the Government has
given them, cannot sell their tax
exempt bonds today not to save
their lives. There Is no market
for them. We have destroyed the
mortgage-bond market.
The VICE PRESIDENT. The
Senator's time on the amendment
has expired.
Mr. GLASS. I will take the
balance of my time on the bill.
We are proceeding upon the
assumption that nobody hereafter
will desire credit; that farmers
hereafter will not want credit,
or need It, because we are de
stroying credit, and largely have
done so. . No man outside of a
J-g-'Jl
cause we hare destroyed the mar
ket for farm mortgages, and for
almost all types of mortgages.
I cannot in any circumstances,
painful as It is to me to differ
from the occupant of the White
House and from my party col
leagues, support the second sec
tion of this amendment, relating
to the devaluation of the gold
dollar.
England went off the gold
standard because she was com
pelled to do so, and not from
choice. She had less than a mil
Hon dollars in &old left after pay
ing her indebtedness to the Unit
ed States. Of course she went off
the gold standard; and her going
off has not resulted in increas
ing the prices of commodities.
There was a temporary flurry
then, as there has been in this
country now; but the inevitable
reaction came.
Why are we going off the gold
standard? With nearly 40 per
cent of the entire gold supply of
the world, why are we going off
the gold standard? With all the
earmarked gold, with all of the
securities of ours that they hold,
foreign governments could with
draw In total less than $700,000,'
000 of our gold, which would
leave us an ample fund of gold
in the extremest case to maintain
gold payments both abroad and
at home. '
To me, the suggestion that we
may devalue the gold dollar SO
percent means national repudla
tlon. To me. It means . dishonor.
In my conception of it, it Is lm
moral., All the legalistic argn
ments which the lawyers of the
Senate, men ot eminent ability
and refinement, may make here
or have made here have not dls
lodged from my mind the lrre-
roeable conviction that It la lm
moral, and that It means not only
a contravention ot my party's
platform in that respect hut of
Yprom,Ue ot party
.campaign.
the promisee of party spokesmen
Mr, President, there was never
any necessity tor a gold embargo.
There is no necessity for making
statutory criminals of citizens of
the United States who may please
to , take ' their property In the
shape ot gold or currency out ot
banks and use it for .their own
purposes as they may please.
As I remarked to the Senator
from Pennsylvania the other day.
we hare gone beyond the cruel
extremities ot the French when I
I they made It a capital crime, pun-
I tenable at the guillotine, for any
tradesmen or Individual citizen of

lng-press currency. We have gone
beyond that.. We have said that
no man may have his gold, un
der penalty of 10 years in the
penitentiary or 110,000 fine.
An expansion oi the currency?
Federal Reserve notes outstand
ing today exceed by nearly $3,
000,000,000 the outstanding Fed
eral Reserve notes In 1929, in
those days of prosperity on pa
per, prosperity In the orgies of
the stock gamblers who have
ruined this country. Tet we have
not been willing to pass a bank
bill in the Congress of the United
States designed and effectively
framed to avert a repetition of
that sort of thing. If there were
need to go off the gold standard,
very well, I would say let us go
off the gold standard; but there
has been no need for that. If
there were need for currency ex
pansion, I would say let us ex
pand, though I fail to compre
hend how much better off one is
with 2 which will purchase no
more than the dollar which he
had yesterday.
The history of inflation ha3
been recited. Bacon, the wisest
philosopher since Christ, the au
thor of the inductive system, from
which we have drawn all of our
inventions, valued experience. Ed
mund Burke, the greatest rhet
orician of all times, was logician
enough to magnify experience.
Patrick Henry, the greatest ad
vocate of human liberty, said
that his feet were lighted by the
lamp of experience. Tet here to
day we are flying right in the
face of human experience, reject
ing It all.
My colleagues talk about serv
ing the public. What public? The
men who work for a wage, the
neediest of all classes of the pub
lic, the clerks and the stenog
raphers and the professional men,
constituting, In the aggregate.

killing his rider.
Mr. President, I find that I
must desist. I regret to disagree
with my colleagues. It is painful
to disagree with the occupant ot
the White House, whom I lore
and respect, and who has exhibit
ed unparalleled courage In trying
to bring the Government within
its budgetary requirements. But
whether it be a commonplace or
whether It be sensational, I am
one Democrat who is going to
vote against this inflation amend
ment even if every one of the 94
other Senators vote for It. I may
have regret, but shall never make
apologies for acting upon my own
convictions and conscience

In a frame under the oil paint

these words:

By no means the least of the
facts that make those two paint

cupy the places of honor in the
