John Malone's Memories.
John Malone. one of the older
.members of St. Mary's Jarlsh. was via-
‘ited by the writer recently and gave
most interesting reminiscences oi' the
dedication ceremonies of the present
structure just fifty years ago. ‘
"i remember the day well" said Hr.
Malone. "It was a proud day {or all
of us and the glorious weather added
the finishing touch to the event.
-"I was an altar boy in the little old
church which instill standing on
Chapel street. up to about the time
that the excavation for the new
church was started about 18". and
then I entered the Norwa'lk pottery
as an apprentice. ”and some of the
younger ms took my place.
“Like all the 0th! r nit-n of the par-
ish I gave what lilll" l could out of
the shop to help excavate the base-
ment. and wcll remember that all the
stone for the sides and flooring came
from a quarry on the West Rocks
road. owned by Rev. Mend. then'rec-
tor of St. Paul's Episcopal church.
“'th that good man was approached
by some of thc members of Rt. Mary's
relathc to the purchase of the mater-
lul. he promptly gave them permis-
sion to take all the stone they needed

It may said this condition
erally is the result of the is of
prices which has taken place _in the
past year, the fact that the prices of
all commodities hsv’s not fallen in
like degree. and that bank de-
posits hsvc not been replenished
do make good the drafts on
thgm to pay outstanding obliga-
tions.
During the period of inflation
bank deposits rose steadily with
the loans. \\’hcn a bank customer
borrowed money, taking credit {or
it in his account. the bank's de-
poeits were increased in that
amount. And when the customer
checked out- the amount to pay for
3 Liberty Band. or any other pur-
pose, the check went into some
other bank as a deposit, and thus
it became purchasing power per-
manently in circulation until that
borrower—or some borrower—
rhecked against a deposit account
that had been actually earned and
saved, and thereby extinguished a
corresponding autumn of credit.
\Vc followed this process of in-
flating our bank deposits up to
about November l. l'IZU. Some of
our bankers were very proud over
the “grOvi-th" of their deposits dur-
ing that time. although they signi-
fied very little except that a carload
of bags. or wilt-st. or other prod-
ucts, was creating twice as big a
credit entry as belore the war.
The fundamental point to bear in
mind is that moncy'is only the
medium of payments. As a con-
crete enmpe take. say. an a rio
cultural community in the MLdle
\Vest. The real debt-paying power
of that community is in its isrtn
groducts. and as the prices of these
