CHAPLIN HAS PLAN FORNEW CURRENCY Comedian Proposes Remedy for Lack of Money and to & Cure Economic llis. By the Associated Press. BEVERLY HILLS, Calif, June 27.— Charles Chaplin, film comedian, says & shortage of money and not of supply and demand is the prime cause of the world's ecraomic situation. The actor today proposed a remedy, especially for war reparations settle- ment. He previously had said leading economists he met on a world tour, re- cently completed, could find nothing wrong with his plan. “The cry of all countries is lack of money,” Chaplin said. “Commerce has developed through the expansion of 1} credit, but without a corresponding ex- pansion of currency. Gold Production Too Small. ve expanded credit with the de- velopment of industry and our national resources, while the expansion of cur- rency was restricted on the production of gold “The production of gold is too small to keep up with the development of the world's resources, yet gold is the basis of all value. What gives it that value? An international recognition of its purchasing power. Therefore, by in- ternational agreement, any metal could e same basic value as gold.” payment of war reparations, lin suggested the establishment of ternational currency, based on the value of gold. Each Nation Would Share. He said that each nation to share in the $3,500,000,000 set as the amount to be a ed from Germany in war in- demnities could be paid its proportion- ate share of the international currency he proposes. “This,” he said, “would be a fiduciary currency guaranteed by the Allies to have the same par value as gold. To insure this guarantee, each nation could deposit in a central bank a bond in proportion to the value of its share. Such a bond could be financed in each participating country by a bank loan or bond issue. Should a nation attempt to discount the currency, it would forfeit its bond.
