If so, will you please give such particulars as you can? We are already doing some active business in shipping our pro- ducts to Bermuda.

SERIOUS NEWS FOIL MOTORISTS We have a bit of news today for motorists which will interest them all, ' It will dismay motorists mulct 30 years of ago and gladden most of those who are over 50. Those who are of an age in between will res- pond to this news, leach according to his kind. I The news is that speeding is to ' end --nothing more nor less than that. Tire weeks ago in London, a demonstration was given before Gov ernment officials of a device by which any bus, truck or motor car publicly reveals to all ohiervers whether the speed at which it tea- ; velling is under the legal speed liin• it or in excess of that limit. 1 The device is in connection with the speedometer; it is cased in so that the driver of the ear cannot meddle with it. There are publicly placed on each car a red sand green light and while the car runs under the speed limit the red light shows— once that speed limit is exceeded the green, light goes on and every eye- witness knows that the car is ex- ceeding the limit. Not only so, bet on the board, under the driver's eyes, there are the 'satire two lights and he cannot pretend that he docs' not know the red light has gone out and that the green light has warned him of his excess speed. This invention will spread con- sternation among motorists. All of them denounce speedster, and near ly all of them are speedsters. Each one of thein feels that he exerciser a care while he speeds, which tithe ere lack.

TO REDUCE.GOLD CONTENT IN DOLLAR Nothing has occurred '.sines our last hens to diMinish our:eon 'de ee that a devaluation of the American dollar is aniong• the steps towards world recovery which will be taken by the Roosevelt ache:nistration. Our who 'ownStephen Le aecoclr is not a man to strain his vocal cords sheet- ing against a hostile wind, is advo- cating a seventeensigrain dollar, not for canticle alone, but for the North American contis cute Theu f decision d • .or such a policy Y ob ior ] Y costs with the United States rather_ than wit) this young Dominion. on Discussion en of devaluation.nosy s ra 1 p is almost ani• mese in political and fman h al c ur- cles all over the United States, The last issue of Col. Ayres' Cleveland Trust 'Bulletin is entirely devoted to it, and is in some respects the best account of the situation that wr have yet seen. It 'begins with the thesis, which will be entirely new to most of its American readers, though long obvious to everybcciy else, that "So long as we keep our paper money redeemable in gold on the present bas- is we cannot print and circulate e neugh additional currency to cause any considerable increase in our general price levels." It then intim ates that what is needed is an ex- pansion of bank credit, an intima- tion which unfortunately overlooks the fact that bank credit cannot pos- sibly be expanded in tape of a de- clining price level, because money is lent and berrowed to be converted into goods, and will not be lent or borrowed to be converted into goods. that are going down. Having thus made it clear that prices cannot be raised in the United States unless they can be raised in terms of gold all over the world or uulese the gold content of the Am- erican dollar ran be changed. CM Ayres goes on to argue that the lat- ter operation is impossible. He giver two reasons, neither of which ap- pears adequate. The first is that the legislative proceedings for the reduction of the geld content of the dollar would he protracted and would cause a general move to exchane' American currency for geld, which "mild throw the United States off the gold standard. This may be true but does not appear to be a fatal ob- .jectirn, since completion of the leg- islative proceedings would speedily put the country- back on the gel( standard at a new level. The second ob,iertion is that the bulk of American bend issues arc contracts for payment in "gold dol• lays of the present weight and fihhe- nrss," and that the Supreme Cour' has held these contracts to be valid, This is, it must be admitted, a see - km difficulty, but it is one of ivhic)• the proponents of the reduced dollar have long been aware. if it ie in- superable, it meting that the United States is lacking in on; of the most essential attributes of sovereignty. namely the power to determine what is anti is not the money of the realist. But the fact is that the Supreme Court has always exhibited a healthy sense of reality, even to the point of r'ever'sing its own decisions when the pressure of facts required it to do so; and there is very little doubt that the President and the Supreme Court justices between them conic' contrive the terms of a new statute which would enable the court to de- clare that the "present weight and fineness" clause could no longer be enforced. A government which tutu; tell creditors that they camera col- lect the debts due them on the con- tract date—and a moratorium is no more than this—can equally managee to tell eveditcrs that they cannot collect the debt due them in the con- tract money. Similarly, a govern- ment which can impound all the gold hi the country, and prohibit the im- port by private persons of any golf from outside the eoantry, can effec- tively prevent debtors from paying in the contract money, and leave the eom•ts to rescue creditors from tlheit resulting situation in any way tha' they like. --=Toronto Saturday Night COUNTY NEWS WI1OXXETER: The regular monthly meeting of the Women's In- stitute was held recently: In the absence of the president, the vice- president, Mrs. J.
