TORONTO, CANADA (1) The relatively slow rate of inâ€" crease in the monetary gold supply during recent years. coud supay is | BIZZINES$ UN PRES[NI D[PRESS“]N Caused by Blood pressure Most people if asked for the cause of the present lack of progress and prosperity in so many countries of the world would answer promptly with the word, "unemployment." That is only begging the question, "And what is the cause of unemployment?" To the latâ€" ter question the answer would likely be that overâ€"production is some lines and current monetary conditions must be blamed for unemployment. The ordinary man feels that the question is a complicated one and he is naturâ€" ally anxious to have expert opinion on the case. Such opinion is given in a recent issue of The Bank of Nova Scotia Monthly Review. Three causes are selected as being in the main responsible for current monetary conditions and over producâ€" tion. These are given as follows: (2) The sterilization of the world‘s monetary gold by certain countries in the form of excessive bank reserves. (3) The strenuous competition of the stock markets, during recent years, for funds which otherwise would have been available for the financing of trade and industry. Reasons For Falling Prices (1) Slow Rate of Increase in the Gold Supply: For monetary purpbses virtually the whole of the civilized world is on a gold standard. Gold is no longer used, in most countries, as a means of making payments from man to man. But it does discharge an indispensable function. It is used for clearing purposes between countries (through the medium, as a rule, of the central banks) and within some counâ€" tries it is also used for clearings beâ€" tween banks. In other words, gold is the touchstone by means of which the soundness of a gold standard currency is tested from day to day. The quantâ€" ity‘ of currency, and of credit built upon that currency, is limited in the last analysis by the quantity of gold available in the world for monetary purposes; and the rate at which new currency and new credit can be created is limited in the same way by the rate of increase of the monetary gold supply. One of Main Causes of World‘s Presâ€" ent Situation Said to be Due to Relatively Slow Rate of Increase in Gold Supply In various analyses of the problem during recent years it has supposed that, if the creation of new purchasing power is to keep pace with the need for it, the gold annually produced at the mines should permit of an expansion in the world‘s monetary gold of about 3%, or 401 annually. (Since the growth in the world‘s monetary needs is not necessarily constant, we need not supr pose that the rate of growth in the world‘s monetary gold stock should neâ€" cessarily be the same in successive THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO generations.) A calculation covering the 20 years preceding the War suggests that in this comparitively recent perâ€" iod the necessary proportion was almost exactly 3.59;..(’I‘he average annual inâ€" crease in the world‘s monetary gold stock was about 3.9¢,, and the Board of Trads Index in Britain, rose in the same time at an average annual rate of about 0.40,.) Since 1925, according to calculations recently published in England by Sir Henry Strakosch, the average rate of increase in the monetary gold stock has not exceeded 3¢%,, and in 1929 it was very little more than 250. There is thus a growh'; shortage, which, indeed, would matter very little in a single year, but is capable, over a series of years, of producing a cumulative efâ€" fect upon world prices of quite serious proptortions. It was in 1925 that, following the successful inauguration of the Dawes Plan, Britain returned to the gold standard, and restored the value of sterling to the preâ€"war rate of 4.86665. Since 1925, most of the leading counâ€" tries of the world that had still to do so have followed the lead of Britain and adopted the gold standard. It is to be regretted, therefore, that a shortâ€" age of gold, even of limited proportions, should have appeared during these years. (2) Sterilization of Monetary Gold Reserves: In the study mentioned aâ€" bove, Sir Henry Strakosch calculated that during the past five years, on balance, about $670,000,000 of the new monetary gold that has appeared has been "sterilized" by being locked up in bank reserves in several parts of the world, which are already larger than they need be; in other woras, that this large amount of gold has so been handled as not to bring about the creation of new purchasing power. Since the gold produced at the mines, in the years from 1925 to 1929 inclusâ€" ive, amounted to just over $2,000,000,000, we may say that almost exactly oneâ€" third of the new gold recently produced by the whole world has failed to conâ€" tribute as it should have done to the support of commerce and industry. To this extent, the growing shortage of gold has been accentuated. It is little wonder ‘that the recent decline of nrices has attracted universal notice. (3) Competition of the Stock Markets for Available Funds: The difficulties of the situation were increased in 1929, before the break occurred, by the estaâ€" blishment of ‘the very high rates in the New York call money Market, which are recalled by the title heading this analysis. At the climax of the movement, rates of ten per cent or even more prevailed for many days together. As a result there was a transfer or fioating balances, on a very large scale, from other financial centres to New York, and from the financing of securâ€" ity speculation. A further conseâ€" quence, as everyone remembers, was a drain on the gold reserves of many countries, including Canada. The drain on the gold reserves of Britain, at midsummer, 1929, was particularly serious, and the policy pursued at that time by the Bank of England, in the face of very grave difficulties, has deâ€" servedly won high rtzaise. In the words of the Federal Reserve Board: "The unusually high level of money rates in 1928 and 1929, which had accompanied the constant active demand for credit from the security market, together with the increasing participation of foreigners in stock market activity, resulted in a flow of gold into this country" (i.e. the United The consequences involved, during the past twelve months, for all of the countries dependent upon a world market, are a matter of common knowâ€" ledge.

States); "and the loss of gold by forâ€" sign countries caused foreign central banks to advance their rates in order to protect their reserves. High disâ€" ccunt rates at the central banks were accompanied in mos countries by high rates of interest to trade and industry." The high rates of interest on short term loans were a symptom of the then unbalanced monetary condition. The shortage of money for the financing of the world‘s trade in commodities augmented the difficulties already threatening, as a result of the two factors already mentioned, the limited gold supplies and their continued sterâ€" ilization. Because of this combination of adverse influences, the purchasing power of the world was visibly failing to keep pace with the growth in our sllective for production, acâ€" cclerated as this had been by five years cf. on the whole, increasing prosperity. * Five years ago this month I had a serious attack of blood pressure, and my medical man ordered me to take Kruschen Salts daily. â€" Evidently 1 am a stubborn subject, because I use every morning aâ€" small teaspoonful and a half in a glass of hot water, and this acts splendidly and keeps my head right, If I don‘t have the actio® mentioned, I feel cold, stupid and liable to fall from dizziness.

From north of Cochrane last week came word of an unsusual accident that resulted in the death of a T. â€" N. O. fireman. The fatality was due to an engine getting out of control. Details of the fatality were given last week by The New Liskeard Speaker. In referring to the death of William Arthur Thicke, The Speaker saysâ€" "William Arthur Thicke, fireman with the T. N. O Ry., at the Abitib: Canyon Sprir, died at Cochrane Hospitâ€" al at two o‘clock in the morning or Saturday, August 30, from injuries reâ€" ceived Thursday, August 28, when the engine he and engineer George Biers were on, became beyond control. The engine was being fired. When it began to move the men thought the dinky engine was pushing it. Arhur, looking out, perceived there was no dinky enâ€" gine and shouted to his companion to jump. Both jumped, one from either side, Engineer Biers escaping with no serious injury, but Arther fell agains‘ a clay bank and was thrown back inâ€" side the rails He suffered a fractured skull and injuries to his back. He was taken at once to the hospital at Cochâ€" rane and his wife and uncle, Mr. S. E. Thicke, of New Liskeard, receiving word of the disaster, immediately went north remaining by the bedside until life had passed. Fireman Thicke had finished his work in this connection and was at home enjoying holidays, when called upon to again assist. The enâ€" gine was employed on the James‘ Bay extension of the T.N.O., and was opâ€" erating under the supervision of H. F. McLcoan Limited, the contractors. The body was brought to New Liskeard where funeral services were held at the family residence, Rebecca St., Monday afterncon, Ser!;. 1, by Rev. M. E. R. Boudreau, B.A., B.D., of St. Andrew‘s Presbyterian Church, interment in New Liskeard cemetery. The pall bearers were firemen of the T. N. O. Ry., of North Bay and New Liskeard. The deâ€" ceased was a member of the Brotherâ€" hood of Firemen. The late Mr. Thicke was the elder son of Mr. and Mrs. Phil Thickle, of Toronto, and was born in Toronto thirtyâ€"three years ago. ne had lived in New Liskeard, twentyâ€"nine years, except for a short time spent in North Bay, and had worked for the T. N. O. Ry., since a boy. . ‘There, are left, the widow and three children and two adopted children, children of a deceased sister of Mrs. Thicke; the father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Phil Thicke, of Toronto, residents of New Liskeard for many years; one brother, Ernmnest, of Montreal, sister, Miss Viola Thicke of Toronto and an adopted brother, Harold of Tronto. All but the latter were present at the funeral as also was Miss Alice Tuck, of Toronto, sister of Mrs. Thicks. The bereaved ones have the sincere sympathy of the many friends in the district, the famiâ€" lies being well known and the deceased an exceedingly fine young man." IMPORTANCE OF BLUEBERRY INDUSTRY AROUND MATHESON Estimates have boen given recentiy to the effect that there were Oover a thousand people engaged in picking blucberries in the district near Matheâ€" son, and that as many as three thousâ€" and bacskets of the fruit were shipped in a single day. Of course, shipments were not made every day, but it is cerâ€" tain that there was a very large quanâ€" tity of blueberries picked in the disâ€" trict referred to this year. This would suggest that the blueberry industry might be a very important one and a profitable one, but on the other hane there were complaints in regard to the prices paid to pickers. This may have been due to misunderstanding, or it may have resulted from other causes. Also, it may have referred only to one or two men taking up the blueberry inâ€" dustry. Several gangs of pickers were engaged in Timmins, and some of these told on their return of the disappointâ€" ment experienced when they found they were to be paid much less per basket than they expected. One man having gangs out berry picking is reâ€" ported as excusing a cut in the price for picking by the fact that he was to receive much less himself for the berâ€" ries than he expected. It seems to be a fact that the price for blueb@grries this year was below that of other years and so the industry was not as valuable as some had hoped. There is a great supply of blueberries in this North Land, and this free fruit is certainly of much value to many. All summer long youngsters have been bringing blueberries into town and selling them around to the houses in town. While the amount thus secured may be small in the individual case, it must amount to a very respectable sum in the aggreâ€" gate. Also, it should be noted that scores of families in town take advanâ€" tage of the chance given by the supply of blueberries in the district and thus add to the good eating in their larders with no other cost then that of labour Huntingdon Gleaner:â€"Up among the North Georgiza mountain tops is a big family, one that included a set of triâ€" plets, nine sets of twins, numbers nearly fourâ€"score, and eats fifty pounds of flour at a meal.

It is going to take all the influence that the people of the Clay Belt can bring to bear to persuade the powers that be that our claims are just and that while an alternative route suggested may be all that is claimed for it from a scenic point of view, the best and quickest way to connect the east with the west by a motor road is right over the Ferâ€" guson Highway. There has been for some time a steady campaign carried on in favor of the Lake Superior route. The towns from Sudbury to the Sto are not neglecting anything that will tend to swing the highway their way. With this we need find no fault. Ou: part is to set out the undoubted adâ€" vantaoeq of this route, to brmcT to the attention of the governments the savâ€" ing in time and cost that can be efâ€" feced by continuing the present road from Hearst westward to connect up with the other roads in the extreme west of the province. A glimpse at any good map will show the great difference in distance required to be covered, and it is very generally known that the country west of Hearst is much more suitable for road building than that around the shores of Lake Suprrior. It may also be pointed out once more that the chances for development are much chances for development are much greater along that route and thse chance for some return form the outâ€" lay involved correspondingly great. It would seem that this is the time for a united effort on the part of the whole of Temiskaming and Cochrane District. Every organization of a public nature can join in. Town and township counâ€" cils, boards of trade, the newspapers and all others can lend a hand and all should be busy right now if we are to be successful."
