AUTHORITY ASKED
The President asked for author- ity to take over the present aur- pluses of silver in this country not required for industrial uses on à of just compensation payment
and to regulate imports, exports and other dealings in monetary silver. The President has pro posed a tax of at least fifty per cent of the profits accruing from dealing in silver.
The President said "It is clear that we should not neglect the value of the increased use of sil- ver in improving the monetary system. Some measures for mak- ing greater use of silver are propriate for Independent action by us, but for others international co-operation should be sought."
