Secretary Carlisle urges bold reform to modernize U S currency. He proposes repealing bond security for circulation, allowing national banks to issue notes up to 75 percent of capital with a 30 percent guarantee fund, a 0.5 percent annual tax on average notes, and a safety fund to back failed banks.
