more gold than all of the rest of
the world combined, he said the
Republican arguments against de
valuation had “been knocked into
a cocked hat” by other nations
which had joined England and
France in abandoining the gold
standard.
“Those who have been so dis
turbed about our national credit
should realize that there never has
been a time when the United
States could borrow money at a
lower rate of interest and when its
bonds commanded a better price in
the financial markets,” he said.
“Gold always seeks the place of
greatest security. There is more
gold in America than all the bal
ance of the world combined and,
therefore, gold has come to this
country because it has the most
stable and secure government and
because the financial structure of
this nation is a virtual Gibraltar of
strength.”

• This should be -welcDme news indeed to the
thousands and thousands of residents in rural
and country homes, where the only light after
nightfall is the weak, sickly, yellow light from
an old-fashioned kerosene lamp. Think ot it
— modem, white, city light—simple, safe and
most economical. What joy in reading, sewing
working, studying, and playing now in sohd
comfort—in perfect safety—and the danger
from eye-strain greatly reduced.
Why subject yourself and family to
the discomfiture, trouble, inconven
ience and danger to eyesight and
health by continuing to use the same
old smoky, smelly, unscientific light
of grandfather’s day? Modernize
your home with Aladdin Kerosene
