Big wages paid during the War once More will become the order of the Day. Unemployment is soon to cease entirely. Clear the Industrial decks for an immediate resumption of business.

V he bases his prognosis on these factors increase of per capita Money which must result from leveling our tremendous Gold Reserve to a 50-50 basis with other currency. Booming of wages in proportion to the increase of per capita Money. Complete return to Good times will do aril so inn be fully accomplished within the j Are a Cussion next three years with conditions steadily improving up to that time he says. But commodity prices including rents and other necessities will also reach a new advanced level. A a judged by past business cycles we shall experience rising prices and wages for the next two or three years. I look to see a Rise of about 30 per cent possibly More a within that Gillete says. How to figure it a this must result because our per capita Money in circulation has nearly always equal eds twice our per Cap Ita Gold. And at present our per capita Money is Only 50 per cent More than our per capita Gold. Therefore it is entirely Safe to assume that As times improve and Federal Reserve Bank notes flow Back into circulation our per capita Money will increase about one third above Seye members of Collins party Are killed or wounded in sudden attack door to final peace however is believed to be still open new York n.
