The gold miner has a tremendous advantage with his product. It not only is selling for a higher (price, but its purchasing power remains exceptionally 'high by virtue of the fact other commodities are selling for just about what they were before the price of gold advanced. The effort of the NRA to lift prices has not resulted in any extraordinary advance in cost of commodities. Hence gold gives the possessor of it an unprecedented advantage. Gen. Dawes also made an interesting comparison | between the American governmental debt and that of Great Britain. The present indebtedness of the United States, including Federal, State and muni- cipal debts, is estimated at the sum of $44,481,857,851, or an indoebtedness of $35266 per capita.
