Bax Crry, Doc, 29, 1873, To the Fditor of The Chicago 4'ribune & Amoug thio argumonts pus forth in favor of making United States greenbacks and bonds inter-counvertible, a plain and, to my mind, an unanswerablo one seoms to have been over- lovked. Whilo much has been gaid to show the expedieney of this measure, but little attontion Ly beon given to its justice, I wish to offer n fow considorations bearing on tho Intter point. Our Govornment owes n largo_ debt consisting principally of bouds bearing gold interess. Tlua part ot tho debt is lnumih.y satisfuclory cou- chtion, Amplo provieton Ling beon made for the payment of tho interest regulurly in coin, and consequently our uational ‘eredit stands very high, ond may be said to be ~ fmproving. Thero iy, however, nnother part of our national debt of which so favorablo an account canuot be given. 1tis in i anomalous state, floating in tho form of sim- ple debcutures, for tho payment or funding of which no provision whatever has been made, Coneoquontly, this part of our dobt stands much Lelow the othor portion of it in value—tho dif- foronce ab the prosont time amounting to 12 or 15 por cont. Whitle the fundod dobt is nowabove the par of gold, the unfunded debt stands con- amiarably below it.” Is thore any need for this, and, = wob, i3 it not the boundeu duty of the Freusury to plnco all it obligatious on tho samo footing ¢ Buould not_all the creditors of tho Govornment bo trented nlike ? The unfunded debt roferred to is, of courss, tho groonback curiancy, and good men's mnds aro very much occupied by pluns to bring il.up to par, 8o that what is called ** specio pnyment " may be resumed. During tho pavie this ond scomed to be rapidly approaching, Lut now tho tendonoy i8in the other direction, and if the ex- isting wants of the L'reasury aro to bo supplied by further igsuos of greenbanks, the disconnt on thie latter will increase. Buppose, however, the Treasury should ba re- quired to issuc 5 por ceut Londs for ail groon- backe presented in sums of $100 on and aftar the 1at of Junmarynexc? What would bo the immadiato effoct # Certainly, this would not bo o measuro of **intlation.” Inasmuch as groonbuci aronow mich loss value than & per gent bonds, o coneidorable amount would probably be rotired and this procoss would go onuntil the bondsand 1 cenbacks stood on tho eamo plane. It might ha that such a provision would tomporarily ro- duce esisting quotntious for § per conts, but I Jdomnot boliove tho tendency in this direction would ba vary great. ‘Lho crodit of the conntry {3 now o bigh, aud would be so much improved by the honorable provision which would thus be made for the jloafing debl that bouds would bo 1s likoly to advauce asrocode in prices. But what- ovor might bo the fack in this pavtionlar, bonds and groenbacks would thoronftor be oqually val- usble, and if thet value should bo noar tho par of gold, all diflioulty in the way of practical 10- euniption would dienppenr, T'hus as it were by o mere stroke of the pen tho dilferonco_botween gold and greonbacks 1night be wiped out, aud the eredit of tho Cov- orument placed on tuch Inghor ground than it now occupios. Dut lotus consid r whothor in doing this anything would Lo lost. I will prolubly bo said that this would be s monsure of contraction—tlLat to tho extout to which greenbacis would go 1 to be fundod, the volume of tho curroncy would bo roduced. 'Lhis, of courso, is obviously true, but ure we lkely to rench the rosult so much desived of giving our currency a gokl purchasing power by any carior mothod ?_1f enrrancy bo 1cally 08 searco as ig pretonded, i it likely that tho temptation of etting b por cont for it in tho form of bonds would eatiso any considorablo quantity to bo withdrawn? Would not tho offect simply be to advanco the valus of the greonbacks without sensibly decrepsing thoic volme? Or if the volume were reduced, would it not show that tho 3y of senrcity of currency is without founda- don? Ub to this point I have only considered onesido of the intor-convertible plan,—that of funding greenbacka into 6 por cent boudy, Ido this be- causo 1 wish to show that tho mensuro of makiug bouds and greenbacks mucually convertiulo 18 ot ns has beon _pretendod, one of inflation, per. se, 1f tho tendency at this time of an option to ‘convert greoubacks into 5 per couis, would boto contract rather than to expand tho enrtency, would it muke any dilference if, at the smno tino, thooption woro £o extanded s tonllow 5 per cents to be reconverted into greonbacka at the Pleasro of tha holders? 1t is portectly plain that an option to resonvert would wot operate at wll until all differonco between the valuo of the bonds sud preonbacks had been nbsorbed in some way, The Lirst offect of nttuohing the convertible option to tho groen- backs and bonds would simply be to equalizo thoir value, Tho extent te whioh tho option would Lo availed of either way cannot be fore- scon oxnetly, Aftor the adjustment which wauld sson follow tha croation of the new finau- sinl conditiou had taken place, the movement in oitbor direction would probably be msignilicaut, Wintovor {v might bo, should bo disclosed by daily reperts from the ‘U'reasury, in order to choniniuto any altempts at cornory, I have Kguumd the plan of n curroncy stock wish 8 65-100 por cent intereat, fur ihe rouson tha. ab oresont thid rate is too low, aud the plun wou.d tharelore bo oue of inflation. Gula interost ot 6 per cont mcoms to bo the Lu.¢ rato ou which oulr Governmout can now Lorrow monoy at par, 1f the graonbacks are to Lo kopt at par, they must be contertible inlo a varstock, If n3 parcout bond Is worsh but 160 por cout gold, 3 55-000, por cent stock would bring oulfv % por cent gold, and the greenbacls convertiblojto such n utock would, T supposd, Lavo only the cams value. ‘Lho timo may como when we shall boe abla to negotiato a loau at par bearing 8 05-100 er cont intorest, but that timo is ot tiow, aud 1.0 ‘'ronsury would bo making U unfuir diserimination-agalnst » certaln por- tion of its crodituis by offering thom only 8 66-100 por cent whun it pays others 6 per cout, In short, Mr. Editor, I hold ic right for tho Qovernmont to give the holdors of ita flontiny dobt the opportunity of fuading it ou the bes! tonms It is now offériny, viz.: 0 por cent gold boudw.
