A London cable cites Viscount Bnow de as stating the United States may pay 76 million dollars due on July 15 in silver. Congress allowed up to 200 million dollars in silver payments at a cap near 60 cents an ounce. Odds of 150 million ounces delivered could save about 22 million dollars, though Britain holds no such stock. The piece notes silver’s market price around 85 cents, foreign sources, and the Treasury’s silver dollar stock now exceeding half a billion in certificates, with only about 28.6 million silver dollars in circulation. It critiques silver payments as tools to reduce surpluses, influence prices, and avoid debt repudiation. Kansas City Times.
