Budget slashing, he ‘Fiat’ Money Under the constitution the federal government reserves to itself the} power to coin money. States, muni-/ cipalities or individuals have nothing to do with the national coinage. But this proviso applies only to legal tender. It has no effect on barter, exchange, the sale of securi- ties or promissory notes or other evi- dences of indebtedness. ‘With these facts in mind it will be interesting to note the workings of the experiment which is being pro- posed at St. Paul where Mayor Wil- liam Mahoney proposes to issue city “script” as a cure for unemployment, Under his proposal the certificates or script would be issued against a $100,000 reserve fund to be set up by the Board of Public Welfare. They ‘would be used to pay workers on pro- jects inaugurated to provide jobs for the unemployed. To each $1 certificate a two-cent special stamp would be added weekly by the holder. At the end of the year the certificate, with $1.04 in stamps attached, would be redeemed by the welfare board for $1 in currency, the extra four cents would cover cost of issuance. Redemption at a discount would be | Possible during the year. { Mayor Mahoney said he expected Jocal business houses to accept the script in payment for services and commodities if the plan is adopted. ‘The certificates also would be accept- ed in payment of taxes and other ob- ligations to the city and county. The job of figuring out the legal or} constitutional status of this new form of “money” may safely be left to the} lawyers. The average man will be in- | terested in learning if it enables will- ing but hard-pressed citizens to live on a self-respecting basis. If it does | all that is claimed for it we may have | a large number of different money | standards before we know it. | Japan’s Drive | Japanese troops are now within the great wall of China. Pury over Russo-Chinese rapproachment seems to be responsible for much of the aggression of the Nippon government. This situation naturally oversha- dows the Manchurian crisis. As one writer points out “uniting the two disruptive forces in the Far East- Russian communism and Chinese chaos—is a menace not only to the peace of the Orient but to that of the entire world.” Japan looks with disfavor upon our Policies in the Far East. She has protested to the League of Nations against participation by the Soviet Union or the United States in the Proposed conciliation commission on Manchuria. But can Japan oppose successfully both China and Russia? The odds it would seem are against her, espe- cially as she has internal issues to cope with. Japan's finances are in bad shape and with the world crisis she will find it very hard to finance any major military operations. Her Manchurian venture was a costly one, but the latest war maneuvers prom- |Sary toward a balanced budget. feels, is the immediate action neces- of course he is right. Economy has hardly been started at Washington and it remains to be seen how cour- ageous the Democrats can be when fit the deflated condition of the tax- payer's purse. A balanced budget and drastic economy are always cited as the first steps to be taken in the present eco- nomic crisis. The last congress did not tackle the job of budget reduc- tion in earnest.

In no country has this primitive form of exchange seen Greater advances than in America in the last year, where, according to Pro- fessor J. D. Brown, 140 exchanges are operating in 29 states for the sole pur- pose of exchanging goods and ser- vices. Even further expansion of the barter movement is contemplated, for @ plan of federal assistance for these exchanges is being considered, Profes- sor Brown declared in a speech be- fore the American Statistical associ- ation, More than 200,000 unemployed in California are obtaining the necessi ties of life in exchange for a day’ work and in Minneapolis, through such organizations as the Organized Unemployed, similar aims are being carried out. The pressure of thou- sands of unemployed men in every large city, on one hand, and the vast | amount of surplus food that fails to demand a market, on the other, have inevitably led to the effort of these two units in the producing system to get together. Flooded markets and deflated price levels are forcing this type of exchange between individuals who hold either a surplus of some goods, and are lacking others, or those obscure practitioner, without international ise to be even more expensive. ‘What Japan fears is the spread of communism in China. This would imperil Japan for ahe is already com- bating what is termed “underground communism.” The eituation in the Orient is alarming to say the least. Japanese aggression is not approved by any of the world powers. The Lytton re- field something not entirely dissimi- lar is taking place, as witness the Proposal being considered by Canada and Soviet Russia which contemplates the exchange of Canadian goods for Russian oil.
