Consumer's Dollar vs Merchant's Dollar
An article for the Montana Development association by the Babson Statistical bureau compares the shrinking dollar. It shows the consumer's dollar buys 52 cents of 1914 value today, with wage earners facing a 91 percent rise in cost of living and retailers enduring higher wholesale costs. A plan to stabilize the dollar ties value to a fluctuating gold-backed standard via adjustable gold dollars issued as yellowbacks.
