Debates on municipal debt limits and currency reform
In a March 1852 address to the General Assembly, the speaker argues against municipal subscriptions to public works, urges guarding against inflationary currency, favors Pennsylvania’s restricted small-denomination notes, and calls for gradual monetary reform and wider state action. He notes relief notes, sinking funds, and the need for currency consolidation across states. He ends with plans for agricultural education, state institutions, and a monument to the Declaration of Independence.
