Gold Depreciation and Currency Outlook Proposed by Norton

Yale economist J. Pease Norton argues that a gold deluge drives the 1997 panic and calls for curbs on corporate capitalization and trust investments. He proposes either a gold commission to study reform or a prolonged presidential campaign that politicizes financial issues. Norton outlines two money depreciation causes, cites dramatic gold production growth, and favors gradual banking reforms to stabilize the currency while warning against direct legislation amid politics. He endorses replacing government bond reliance with asset currency and envisions national banks absorbing trust powers with strict reserves.
