Communications A New Money Plan To the Editor: Will you please reprint for me the following open letter to President Roosevelt: Franklin D. Roosevelt, President, United States, Washington, D. C. Honorable President: May I prevail upon your valuable time for a few moments? Enough has been said concerning Qod and the truth of our religions, but It will not be amiss if we de scend to the subject of men and our government. I proceed, therefore. to the relation of a subject, which may make you more cautious for the time to come in answering questions that will be put to you. For you must know, that aa a. man's folly often brings him down from the moat exalted atate of life to the greatest misery, so shall hla good sense secure him in the midst of the utmost danger, and procure him a safe and honorable repose. There are many instances of people being brought to misery by their own folly, but these I choose to omit, aa they happen dally. What I propose to exemplify. In the following, la the great cause for comfort to be found in the possession of a good under standing. A government founded upon the shifting sands of Insecurity, la likened unto the man that built hla house upon the sand, and the wind end waves swept It away In Its fury. But a government founded upon the eternal rock of ages, the love of Its people and the natural resources of lta country, will be lik ened unto the man that built hla houae upon a rock, foundation; the winds blew and the rains descended but It fell not. Mr. President, from my observa tions you are greatly perplexed with the financial conditions of the Unit ed States, our government. i know the people are). You are wondering what la to be done about the na tional debt of billions of dollars. Our present system of money la bsf upon gold and silver. Oold and LADIES' HATS $100 .

Bpeoial buy from one of the country's best makers. 340 pairs of Suede Pumps and Ties; all regular $5.00 retailers silver, In Its self, la absolutely worth less and Insecure. There la no virtue or security in the cold metal. Now Mr. President, aa I under stand It, congress had the constitu tional power to coin and regulate money. Granting this to be true, why not Instruct the congress of the United States to Issue currency, to the amount of necessity, backed up, not by worthleaa gold and silver, but by every square foot of ground, and every taxable article In the United States? How can this be done? Simply by printing on the currency, or bill, OOOD FOR (face value) IN TAXES, that's all. We would then have a dollar bill that nobody would refuse, for everybody pays taxea. The dollar would then be backed by the government Instead of gold and sil ver. Who can deny that a dollar backed by the national reaourcea of our great country would be more secure than the gold dollar? A gov ernment dollar backed by ourselves, the people can never fall. Mr. President, give us a dollar, for the people, of the people, and by the people. Respectfully yours, ARCHIE PARKER. P. O. box 190, Central Point. eaglepoihTgrange L EAGLE POINT, Nov. 18. Spl.)
