fleorge K. Roberts, vice presi
dent of the National City Hank,
says our business troubles arc
due to our great gold reserve.
On our huge gold pile, danger
ous inflation, reckless specula
tion and other evils were based.
J'hey hurt all nations, and hurt
us most of all.
Some believe, rightly, that
the butchering of silver's value,
hurt the world more than the
scramble for gold. Milking
silver practically worthless as
money made half the people
on earth, about eight hundred
millions, unable to buy goods.
China and India, with more
than seven hundred million hu
man beings, are without useful
money.
Even high finance was made
to understand the situation last
week, when Mexico, with every
desire to pay, was forced to
suspend interest payments on
five hundred millions of gold
bonds. You cannot pay your
debts if vonr creditors make
payment impossible.
The Mexican situation may
cause the money power of the
world to. realize that demonitiz-'
ing silver is dangerous. Small
bank notes in France and Brit
ain, as cheap as' eight cents
each in Fvancevdrovesilye.r.
from circulation. And our
"cartwheels" are seen rarely,
rtritain attempted to put India
on a gold basis when she was
not really strong enough for a
gold basis herself, and India's
great hoards of silver, becom
ing less and less valuable, were
Marketed at ruinous prices.
Cold and silver have been
"used, side by side, as . the
world's money for thousands of
years, with silver the dominant
metal, the greater part of the
lime. The French word for
money is "Argent" which
means "silver" and today sil
ver is practically worthless, i
gold dollar being worth about
fifty times its weight in silver.
) Now, we consider lending
China one hundred million
ounces of silver, to help her
thinners. It would rid us 01
part of our useless silver, but
would be, to China, about
useful as the loan of a train
load of confederate money.
,H It would interest W. .1. Iiryun
to look down and see to what
the financiers contempt for
silver has led.
The world's "gold" governments
might well call a conference to

ernor Julius L. .eier' Inaugural
message to the legislature. Senator
1J. V. Eddy, Multnomah county,
today will Introduce in the senate
a bill to create a de-partment of
.-date police. The department would
function under the direct control
of the governor and a superintend

the state traffic and prohibition
departments and transfers to the
new agency all of the police duties
now exercised by the game and
fish commissions and the office of
the .state fire marshal.
For the conduct of the depart
ment of police the bill would ap
propriate a total of 1.03.0ft0 for

equal to the estimated expenses
for that period of tho officers and
functions it would absorb.

It is provided that the superin
tendent of state police shall em
ploy officers to carry on the work
of the department; abolished and
shall he provided for by tho di- I
version to the state police fund of
the following amounts from other
state funds:
From the state hatchery fund,
$r2,00Q for the employment of of
ficers to enforce the fish law;
$300,000 from the game protection
fund for officers to enforce the
game laws; $100,000 from the gen
eral fund for the enforcement of
prohibition laws; $f."2.000 from
Mate highway funds for traffic en
forcement, nnd $00,000 from ntate j
fire marshal's fund for work of
officers detailed as fire marshals.
In its organization structure tho
plan proposed for the department

erate, sponsors of the measure de
