Currency Reform.
To guard against any possibi: lity of anbsequent loss the Go vernment could pass an Ordin ence providing that in case of need-such, for example, a "run on the Banks"the note should be redeemable as to four-fifths of ita face value in silver dollars and as to ore fifth in small coins. In exchange for ita notes the Government would, ofs course, receive cash or its equival” ent, and part of this might la kept in Londen in gold to avoid the unnecessary shipment of bul- lion. The Indian Government follows this plan successfully ander airaamstances of far greates difficulty, because it bas to main tain the value of the Rupee at
about one shilling and fourpeno wheresa, as we know to GDF cost, the Hongkong dollar Baotustes daily with the price of ailver, and requires no artificial: support. By having its OWD note mene the Government would be able to save interest on money which it now borrows, and, card a revenue on epy, surplos remaining over for investment, This, of course, would have to be met against any loss of revenue which may now be obtained from the Banks for the privilege of issuing matem in excess of the amount specified in the Ordinenos: We commend the idea to the Govern- ment as worthy of early con- sideration.
