Putting aside the question of bl-metallism, the circum stances were such as to call for me res on their part in implying an opinion, Taking the resolution along with Mr. Macandrew's remarks; It seemed to him that it bound them to the opinion that something could be done by Govern- ment action to reestablish the old ratio between silver and gold. It seemed utterly impracticable, and he did not think that they should commit themselves to any implied opinion. The fall in the exchange, which he had reason to regrets much, had its favourable aspect as well. Speaking of in, which was largely raised in the Malay Peninsula, he found that, taking the pro- duction of 18gs, and comparing the average price with thats bouiwelve years ago, some $6,000 000 more were being bald now than would have been paid ten or twelve years ago on the same production. That was no doubt an example of what was gring on in India. He did not think the producers of tea, jure, &c., would think them for going back to the old ratio between allver and gold, because the answer was that allver was a depreciated currency; but it was not * depreciated currency so far as the native was concerned..
Mr. Gwyther thought Mr. Whittall was argu- Ing against himself, and combated the suggestion that the resolution was theppartone. It was an open secret that the chances of India going In gold would be if we had bi-metalliam. They would be great if we had not bi-metalllam, He regarded it as an opponse time to.Das the resolution, because it might have the affect of arresting the progress of the movement for
gold standard in India.
Me Macanda w pking as to the oppor- toneness of the resolution, said that the Govern- ment were going fito a conference which could bot-last-long-and-must-ofrimately separate by elther coming to an agreement with the other Powers or not. When the Government retired from the carfarerce it wou'd have committed itself to a definite course. They would chher decide to follow the Americans to what they proposed or modifieston of It, or they would decide that they would not interfere with our mono-metallic currency and would leave things as they were now. It was, therefore, useless to approach the Gever ment after the conference. The resolution asked for something to be done, but it left the Goverment to say what.
Mr. Keswick supported this view, and the resolution was then put-to-the-meeting, and carried unanimously, London and China Express.
