" morris AZXAm2R ,wlthet WATSON second time since Alexander Hamilton, tho first secretary of the treasury, our curestablished rency system, a radical change Is to be made in the size of our paper money, according to orders that have been leaned by Andrew W. Mellon, present secretary of the Treasury. The other change occurred in 1SG1 when the smaller bills of Civil war fume were Introduced. These smaller bills, however, were used only a short time and then the regulation size was resumed. Now the size of all bills Is to be reduced aguln and they will be a third smaller than they are today and somewhat different In design. The present size of paper currency Is 7 6 by 8Vi Inches. The new size will be GV4 by 24 Inches. There are two main reasons fur the change In size. One is convenience and tlie other Is economy. The smaller note will generally fit Into pocket-book- s without being folded, a tiling which Is not possible with the present bills. It will also be easier to handle since It will fit more neatly Into liie hand of the counter without cramping the hand, as the present billa do, and can be manipulated more rapidly. The economical reason Is a double one. The frequent folding and creasing of the present size currency eventually breaks the fiber of the paper and makes If deteriorate more rapidly. But the principal reason is the saving la manufacture. Un- der the present system of printing money, the faces or tlie backs of eight miles are engraved on one plate and printed at one Impression. Tlie new size currency will allow 12 notes to be made from one plate and 12 can be printed on the same also sheet of paper' which formerly printed only eight. Mr. Mellon estimates that this will mean an annual saving of $2,000,-00In the manufacture of money. Back of this contemplated change there is an Interesting story, for the money advantage of tho smaller-slz- e was discovered by accident. Twenty- By EL. OU shin-plaste- r" Hearty Meals in Java five t yon dine l" agu, when Spain cedi the I to the United States In the treaty which ended the Spanlsh-Amertcwar, It became necessary for our government to furnish the Filipinos with a distinctive currency. For some reason which has never been explained, the government bureau of engraving and printing designed a currency In which 12 bills could be printed from the plates from which were printed eight of our bills. The Filipinos were satisfied with this handy currency and It has been supplied to tliem steadily for the last quarter of a century. During the many years of American occupancy of the Fhllippines many of our people who have been sent to the islands, civil and military officials, school teachers and the like, have handled the Ihillppine currency. When they returned home and began using the clumsy bills which they found here, they were struck by tlie difference, and almost Invariably they uttered a protest that the Iblllipplne size wus better than our own. So frequent were these protests that at lost the Treasury department began to take notice of them, and two years ago when a treasury committee began a study of currency problems, the first thing it considered was a change In size. Bundles of paper were cut up In the Philippine size, and these dummy notes were distributed to federal reserve banks for experiments by tellers and other officials of the banka. The result was that the federal reserve banks reported unanimously In favor of the smaller size bonk notes. Tlie bureau of engraving and printing in favored the change because of the economy In manufacture already noted. Tlie result was the order Issued by Secretary Mellon recently. But the change In the size is not to be the only Innovation In the new system. Other changes ars contemplated which will bring order to our somewhat confusing currency system. Tlie government Is now putting out five different types of currency national bank notes, gold certificates, silver certificates. United States notes, and federal reserve notes. It has been the custom to print all of these In most of the different denominations, Fhillpplnes a In Java you have (rice tabic), which start! with a deep dish partly filled with rice and ends with such a sense of repletion that one Is apt to be unfit Air any activity for several hours.

Under the new plan the national bank notes will be dons away with. Silver certlfl cates are to be used for $1 bills only, and there will be no silver certificates of any other denomination. The United Stales notes, which are the greenbacks of the Civil war period, will be merged into $5 bills of ths new currency and there will be only one type of $3 bill. Gold certificates and federal reserve notes will be used only for the higher denominations, the $10 bills, the $50s, $100's and $1, 000s. Still another change will be In the matter of the pictures used on the bills. On many of them are portraits of people unknown to tlie public. More than that, the same picture may be on a $1 bill and on a $20 bUL This causes confusion and sometimes leads to mistakes. Under the new system ths pictures of Presidents only will be used. For Instance, Washington Is to appear on the $1 bills, Lincoln on the $5 bills, Jefferson, probably, will be on the $10 bill. Grant may get ths $20 one, Cleveland the $50 bill, Roosevelt the $100, and Wilson the $1,000. That will not take place, however, until next summer. Government man ufacture of money Is a complicated process and tbs dollar bills make up more than half of our paper currency, gome 800 tons of them at present are distributed each year. The bills of this denomination will be the first to appear In the new size. Next will be produced the $20 bills and the government will work up and down from these two, but It will take two or three years to replace all of the re vised denominations In circulation Treasury experts sUte that there are always about a billion bills In circulation. On an average these bills last a year before they wear out and have to be replaced. Of course, the $1 bills wear out most quickly, so that by starting the new system with $1 bills and sending them out to replace the worn-o$1 bills, the first step In Introducing the new currency will be fnfcpn- - The treasury has warned the public that advance specimens cannot be furnished until the new bills are released simultaneously In all parts of the country. ut Prolific Inventor Colorado Boasts of Most Expensive Road The moat expensive road built In the United States is In Colorado.
