Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Essential and the Unessential in Currency Legislation: The Page Lecture Delivered at Yale University, May 1, 1913
The improvement of our banking and currency system can never be a popular issue. It is abstruse. We are only intermittently conscious of its necessity. It makes no appeal to the emotions. Whatever advocacy or support it may have must come not froom the many, but from the few, not from the marching clubs and cheering throngs which give color and excitement to political campaigns, but from the quiet thinking men who are moved by the dry white light of reason.
