LATEST CALIFORNIAN PANACEA
California’s production of plans, “isms” and panaceas, typified by such phrases as “Ham and Eggs for Californians,” “Thirty Dollars Every Thursday” and "End Poverty in California,” has already commenced to give evidence of another crop in the next election year. 1942. Fallow or at least quiescent in odd-numbered years, these proposals seem to bloom only at the time of the State general election in the fall of each even-numbered year. "Monestisation of Food.” newest of the seedling ideas now apparent, is set forth in the slogan “The Food Dollar Versus the Gold Dollar.” and proposes a new kind of money and credit based on production which, its proponents claim, would make the farmer the nation's banker and “provide an honest dollar, banish unemployment, permit the maximum production of goods and keep them moving into consumption.”
