Banker t'rgcs Necessity for (lie Coinage
of a Two-anda Half Cent Piece.
The coinage of a 2i cent piece
is strongly advocated by William
II. Short, a new banker, who de
ckres that its use would mean a
saving of $v9,000,000 yearly to
consumers. The half cent enters
into the price of many commodi
ties that are sold by the pound,
quart or yard, and whenever the
purchase does not result in even
money tho half cent is added
This practise, it is estimated,
adds at least $2.50 per year m an
ordinary family, to the price of
articles for which no equivalent
was rendered. Exact justice cer
tainly demands such a provision,
but there are many sections in
this country in which coats are
not in use the smallest coin used
being a nickle, where evidently
greater shaving is olten done.
