Secretary Folger urges larger appropriation for one and two dollar notes
A telegraphic summary reports Secretary Folger sending a letter to Speaker Carlisle noting that since the suspension of one and two dollar notes by National banks demand for these denominations has surged. He warns the current appropriation may be insufficient to print lower notes and gold and silver certificates, and seeks at least 315,000 more to meet needs this fiscal year. He also highlights Congress cut the estimate by about 65,000 and outlines consequences for supply if no extra funds are approved.
