CONTENTS § 2. Imitations of the Monetary Reform in India. § 3. Similar Monetary Reforms in various countries with paper currencies. § 4. Comparison between the Conversion Office in the Argentine and the “ Gold Exchange Standard’ in the Far East. Identical principles and same essential conditions in the working of new methods as in the traditional system of the gold standard. § 5. Monetary Reform in Austria-Hungary, § 6. Results of Monetary Reforms, Stable Exchanges almost universally restored at the beginning of the 20th century on a gold basis. CHAPTER V TE MonETARY Crisis SINCE THE War oF 1914 § 1. Consequence of the world-war from the monetary point of view. Inconvertibility of currencies. General dis- appearance of free export, and in some cases of free import, of gold. Disappearance of gold points and instability of exchanges. § 2. The Exchange policy of the Allies during the War. Union of sterling and francs with the United States dollar. § 3. Exchange policy in Germany and Austria during the War; the Exchange Control Offices (Centrales de Devises). § 4. Aggravation of the Exchange Crisis after the War. § 5. Causes of the aggravation of the crisis in the Allied countries. § 6. The Monetary Crisis in Germany and its characteristics. Prices follow the exchange but are fairly independent of the note issue. § 7. General characteristics and result of the world crisis in the exchanges after the War. Fundamental importance of price movements following instability of the exchanges. § 8. Attempts to overcome difficulties due to unstable ex- changes and prices in countries with heavily depre- ciated currencies. § 9. Efforts to re-establish normal exchanges. England’s traditional policy. § 10. Experiment in Czechoslovakia, based on the classical principles, produces at first a rise but not a stabilisation of the exchanges; a rise in prices takes place in spite of a contraction of the currency. Stabilisation attained in 1923 results, in practice, from convertibility. § 11. Currency reform in Austria. Return to normal ex- changes by the effective use of the Gold Exchange Standard. Fairly stable prices emerge from stable exchanges in spite of an enormous increase in the fiduciary circulation. § 12. Conclusions regarding the present exchange crisis. PAGE 4a
