MONEY, CURRENCY, BANKING.

Walker's is the best American treatise on Money; Bagehot and Jevons are the leading English authorities. Horton is the chief American bimetallist ; Seyd and Cernuschi are the principal foreign bimetallists. Gold as the standard of value has been ably discussed by Laughlin among American writers, by Knies among those of Germany. Atkinson's report on bimetallism to the U. S. Government is very valuable. On Banking Gilbart's is the best English treatise; the chief American work is Bolles'. Wirth's book on Crises is most able. Horton, Jevons, and Laughlin give extensive bibliographies. Subjects under this heading are in part also treated in works under Public Finance; for example, Adams' Public Debts contains much information about U. S. currẹncy not obtainable elsewhere, and Bourne's History of the Surplus Revenue of 1837 is an important chapter of monetary history.

MONEY, CURRENCY.

Andrews, E. B. An Honest Dollar. Baltimore, American Economic Assoc., 1889. 50 p. O. pap. 75 c.

Holds it wrong to identify a fall of prices with cheapening of commodities, and that scarcity of money is one of the chief causes for fall in prices. So extremely hurtful are fluctuations in value of money held to be, that to prevent them a Government non-partisan commission is suggested, with power to inflate the currency when prices tend to fall, and contract it when they tend to rise. Commends double standard, with relation between gold and silver fixed by law. Discusses composite standards of value. An able, suggestive essay.
