A' of Federal Financing.
By WILLIAM C. UTLEY
.VOLE Sam' has reached Into
his Jeans for the first time
to spend, In any large way,
the. gold "profit" resulting
from the devaluation of the dollar.
By August 1 the government .will
have retired two long-standing- Is
sues of 2 per cent federal bonds,
reducing the now staggering public
debt by almost 1673,000.000 and eas
ing the carrying charge of the n
tlonaL-debt by $13,500,000 a year.
In effecting the move, the Treas
ury department will cause the with
drawal of all national bank note
from circulation, further concentrat
ing control, of .the -currency under
the federal government The act,
which Is balled, as the most impor
tant noanciai one or Franklin v.
Roosevelt's administration and Is
without precedent In the annals'of
federal, financing, la in no way lu-
flatlonary, according,- to - leading
bankers, as well as Henry W. Mor-
gentbaut secretary of the treasury,
and Thomas Jefferson Coolldge, tin-
der-secretary,: who ; made the an
nouncement It does, however, cre
ate some potential opportunity for
mnatlomv.,::y',;vr'v(;-.K.j1,v;f3'..-;.-i.... r
; About $2,000,000,000 of the gold
"profits,v will continue to remain
In the stabilization, fund. '.The fund
so far,, has-been called upon! for
the larger part only for support of
the dollar, on 'exchange markets.
. Keeping snob a profit , "on lee"
was looked-upon as a waste of resources-
by the treasury. The de
partment ;found that it conld 'put
some of these resources to work,
and i at the same,, time concentrate
federal control of 'the currency,
which has been one of the objec
tives Of the banking bill before con
gress,' by retiring bonds which
carry ; the "circulation privilege.'
These are bonds, which-the national
banks deposit ' as collateral when
they issue national bank notes. ;
The government will, as ODPorto-
nlty offers, substitute -federal re
serve notes -for -national bank notes,
of which there are $857,937,080 out
standing. This will leave only three
kinds of currency In .'circulation
silver certificates, United States
notes and Federal Reserve- notes. r
Relic of Civil War Finance.::
' The-naUoaal bank note Is relic
of the financing of .the; QvU war.
Before 1863, virtually all banks were
Issuing "circulating notes," , whose
value,, because no . law'-- made all
currency Interchangeabfe at pari s
it is now. varied in inverse ratio to
the t geographical distance of the
notes from the banks which, issued
them. A note Issued; by a bank In

which -were designated as having
the circulation privilege. The comp
trqller then Issued to .the bank na
ttona!'.. bank' notes up i to the par
value of the bonds." In ease of fail
ure, of the' bank ) the government
would; redeem the notes out pf the
bonds deposited by the bank. The
T 7
issuing of the notes was. In effect,
circulation of federal bonds.
This was a . profitable business
for the banks, for In addition to
the Interest they earned on na
tional bank, notes loaned out or
invested, they also received inter
est on the bonds deposited with the
Treasury department t In the case
of the bonds now to be retired, the
interest was fl per cent
Until July: 22, 1032, the only
bonds vitftn the circulation privilege
were those about Ao be retired Au
gust L On that date a provision of
the . Federal Home Loan Bank act
allowed other bonds. totaling ap
proximately $150,000,000, the circu
lation privilege until July 22, 1933.

the treasury: v " '

serving as security, with lawful
money Xo retire their outstanding
notes thus secured." .
.. It follows, then, that retiring na
tional bank notes Is, in reality, re
tiring the 4onds which, secure them.
; A little over a year ago the fed
eral government decided to re
value the dollar. Under the Gold
Reserve -act of January 81. 1934,
the Treasury department acquired
all the gold in the United States.
I'ms metal . was then valued at
$20.67 an . ounce. The government
revalued It at $35 an ounce. Thus,
there was still the same amount of
gold in the country, but there were
more' dollars for a given amount of
sold, 'v-o- .

In that way revaluing the dollar at
dh.WJ cents in goio the nation real
Ized a; technical profit of , $2,812.-000,00a-
Two billion dollars was
placed In the stabilization fund, and
ont of the' remainder congress ap
propriated $139,000,000 to the Fed
eral Reserve babks for loans to In
dustry; of tl)ls total, $13,500,000 has
been used for the purpose. " An in
definite sum . was appropriated by
congress - for the melting of gold
coinsviestimated at $8,000,000,' and
another $23,000,000 was appropriat
ed for the Philippine currency fund,
leaving $642,000,000. This will be
nsed to retire some of the national
debt The difference between 'the
$642,000,000 end the $675,000,000
necessary to retire the bonds will
be made np out of a special treas-
nry fund. Jit 4s JteUeved. ; -
The bonds which will be retired
In the move are the 2. per cent
consols ."consolidated 'refunding
bonds" of 1030, which have been
called for redemption July 1, and
the 2 per' cent Panama Canal loan
bonds ,.of 1918-1936 and .1918:1938,
which have been -called for redemp
tion August 1.- The former .Issue
totals $599,724,050 and the' latter
$74,901,580. Even the retirement of
this sizeable total represents only a
small- fraction of the public debt
which; in mid-March, stood at $28,-
554,642,325, as compared With $26,
092,598,596 a year earlier. ,., .
'.' Based on "Gold Profit"
The treasury will retire the bonds
by issuing gold certificates, based
on the gold "profit," to federal re
serve banks, and they, in turn, will
Issue, federal reserve notes against
the gold certificates, to redeem the
national bank notes. ' The Treasury
department estimates that It will
take, about ' a year for the govern
ment to acquire all the outstanding
national-, bank . notes. These, of
course, will Simply disappear en
tirely tram "the Mtkmal ledger. h;
.According to ; v unoersecretary
Coolldge, this will not In any way
change the goviernmenPs policy to
ward gold or gold certificates, but
would "merely . Increase the . num
ber of such certificates held by fed
eral reserve banks,? The total ovt
standing amount of currency , will
not be altered nf alt Federal re
serve notes will simply take the
place or the national .bank, notes.
The country' will be freed of all
bond-secured money. ? '- " V" '
1 The only real Inflationary aspect
nt the movement has been largely
"pooh-poohed" by Morgenthau and
Coolldge. This aspect is the power
of the federal reserve banks to .Is
sue more federal reserve notes, us
ing the gold certificates as a base,
than Is necessary to retire the na
tional bank notes. Federal reserve
notes need only a 40 per cent gold
base; therefore they may be Issued
in amount two and A half time
that of the gold represented by the
gold certificates. In this case the
federal reserve banks technically
could issue : approximately , $1,687,
600,000 against the gold certificates.
Notably sharing thla view was Sen
ator Elmer Thomas (Dem.), of Ok
lahoma, one of the most ardent ad
vocates of Inflation: he baa advo
cated all along the issuance of cur
rency against certificates which do
not bear Interest
: The financial world was Inclined
to minimize the possibilities of ac
tual inflation. It took the stand that
no. inflation will take place because
one angle of the operation will off
set the other.
, . Using the gold to retire the bonds,
the government will be Increasing
the reserves of the national banks.
This in itself wobld be Inflationary,
for it would expand the credit base.
But - the same banks that receive
these additional funds will have to
put up cash for the retirement of
the national bank notes which they
bave Issued against tbe bonds de
posited with the treasury. This
will mean a loss of reserves for the
banks, effecting an actual balance
and leaving them with no more re
serve than they had before.
Standing In the way as an obsta
cle to retirement of national bank
notes In past years has been the
fact that the banks made an extra
2 per cent profit using the notes,
for they received interest on the
bonds deposited In addition to the
Interest earned by the money In
loan or Investment. There Is but
little protest expected against the
action at the present time, how
ever, because the banks have much
more funds on hand than they can
profitably lend or Invest. During
the last two years they have ac
tually been retiring their circula
tion rapidly of their own accord.
Tbe two largest banks In the coun
try, the Chase National and the
National City, both of New York,
had no bank notes outstanding at
all at the close of 1934.
Stimulate Bond Market
It was thought that the retire
ment of the bonds might stimulate
the government bond market by cre
ating a demand for new Issues of
the national banks to replace the re
tired bonds. About the only direct
harm that could come from the
move was thought to be a misun
derstanding of the procedure both
home and abroad. Especially for
eign markets might Jump to the con
clusion that this was Inflation. Ac
cordingly, the. government was
ready the day, after the move was
announced to guard the dollar on all
markets with the additional gold
"profits" In the stabilization fund.
The government's plan was ao In
dication of real confidence on the
part of the Treasury department to
handle bond financing In the fu
ture, according to Dr. O. M. W.
Sprague, former executive assistant
to the secretary of the treasury. "1
bad supposed the gold profit would
be held for government bonds In
case they were weak," be said.
Commenting on Senator Thomas'
assertion that the move would re
sult In an Increase of $46,000,000
Henry Morgenthau, Jr Secretary
of the Treasury. .
In the currency, he said: "That
would be of little consequence.
There Is already about $5,000,000,
000 In currency. It would be like
a drop In the ocean."
' The government's nse of the gold
"profit" to retire part of the national
debt was without Inflationary Im
plications, except as individuals in
terpreted them, in the opinion of
CoL Leobard P. Ayres, nationally
known economist and statistician.

TREMENDOUS STOMACH ACHE
FRANCE was passing through a
political upheaval after the fall
I, of the Second Empire during the
Franco-Prussian war In 1870. The
Monarchists were determined to
rule, but sentiment for a republic
was strong.
The national assembly which
would decide the issue, was almost
evenly divided, with a slight edge
in favor of the Monarchists. The
vote was to be taken on June 30,
1875. As the roll of the assembly
was called tbe whole atmosphere
was tense with excitement, for the
balloting was very close.
There was no sound in tbe cham
ber but the grave voice of the pres
ident He called the name of Mon
sieur Leurant There was no an

with politics were Operating to pre
vent bis response. Deputy Leurant
had a stomach ache that morning, a
bad one. He managed to sit through
the preliminaries, suffering with the
griping pains of colic, but finally
be could stand It no longer.
The president called bis name In
vain. Leurant's vote would have
been for tbe Monarchists as he was
known to be unswerving In his de
votion to this form of government.
While he was absent the assembly
was deadlocked, 352 to 352. Finally,
as was constitutionally provided for
In such emergencies, the president
cast his vote ... In favor o( the
