Bland Proposes Substitute As House Debates Bond Bill
The House debated amendments to a $500 million gold bond issue for retiring legal tenders and currency notes. Bland proposed a substitute calling for payment of government coin obligations in standard gold or silver coins with import duties paid partly in gold and silver. The banking committee defeated two amendments including gold‑only duties and gold‑reserve requirements as the bill moved forward. Brazil Argentine boundary dispute arbitration yields a decision setting the boundary along the Pepiri and San Antonio rivers, affecting about 81,000 square miles and 7,000 people.
