Show SILVER CERTIFICATES The view of the Treasury Department is that as long as the small silver certificates certifi-cates are in active demand as they have constantly been since the issue commenced com-menced there is no danger of excess The fact that they are retained in the channels of business and do not find their way back to the treasury in payment pay-ment of duties demonstrates that the people want them and prefer them to larger denominations of currency Thus far they have been called for as rapidly as they could be furnished and the demand de-mand has not yet abated Tho policy of the Department is the reverse of that of a year ago when small notes were retained and silver dollars paid out and it is the wise and true policy Let the people have the currency they like best It is all perfectly safe and paper currency is less expensive than coin which loses a material percentage by wear |
