Such Paper Money Tokens will be much nearer perfect measures of value than gold or silver ever have been or ever can be. The use of gold or other merchandise as money is a barbarism unworthy of the age .- Wallace P. Groom." Later added two notable apothegms in re the Currency as follows: "To be true money it must be inter- changeable at holder's option with government bonds bearing equitable usury-i. e., interest. Such money will surely yield much greater benefits than have re- sulted from any humanly-devised instrumentality since the early dawn of the Christian Era .- Wallace P. Groom." "Grass will cease to grow and water cease to flow ere sound, honest, justice-promoting money can be coined (1. e. fabricated) on any basis other than its interchangeability at holder's option with govern- ment bonds bearing equitable usury-i. e. interest .- Wallace P.
