There should, however, be no return to gold standard until it can be accomplished without unduly penalizing trade by very high money rates. Cooperation of central banks of various countries is necessary if gold standard is to be restored at an early date. Second article: Summarizes the views expressed by seven leading banks in regard to return to the gold standard in England. There was a general consensus as to the advantages of returning to gold at the earliest poss ble moment, but there was much reticence with re http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ gard to the question of a date for the return.
