Gold and Prices

Excerpt from Gold and Prices

The articles now reprinted were originally written at the request of the Editor of the Pall Mall Gazette, and appeared in its issues for March 21, 22, 25, 26, 28 and 29, 1912. By the kind permis sion of that journal, they are here put together in a more convenient shape. A preliminary popular survey of the subject had been previously taken by me in a series of articles in the Evening N ews in October, 1910. These were subsequently translated into German and Swedish and they were reprinted in pamphlet form in January of this year, by the Evening News, under the title The Rise in Prices and the Cost of Living.
