Here's how this so-called “lost money” was divided the last time Uncle Sam counted his roll on July 1: Gold certificates, $142,565,789. Silver certificates, $44,472,747. Greenbacks, $40,441.30 National bank notes, $80,071,211. “Meml Reserve bank notes, $2,772,- | 0. Federal Reserve notes, $201,550,805. Treasury notes (1850), $1,222,650.

The Treasury has yet to formulate & policy on what it will do about the | money that never shows up. The ques- tion rests squarely on the shoulders of the Secretary of the &reasury and Con- gress. But one thing is sure—what- grer ‘profit there is will go to Uncle m. It is estimated that the daily turn- over of currency is approximately $10,- 000,000. Therefore, the length of time the various issues have been in circula- tion will determine to a great extent calculations on that which is missing. The gold certificates, for example, were put in circulation back in the sixties, the silver certificates iz the seventies. However, the gold cert)cates are large amount bills, while the afivers are in smell denominations. A dollar bill changes hands much more fre- quently than a $10 bill. Hence arriving at the amount lost by fire, mutilation and other ways becomes an - entirely speculative proposition. It'll probably be a long time before Uncle Sam can figure out just how | much of the wealth represented by the fEoper maney he lemed originally has come his own property by default. TWO IN FISHING PARTY DROWN, 12 RESCUED Girl and Woman Victims of Leaky Boat in St. Clair River, Near Algenac, Mich. By the Acsociated Press.
