Per Press Association. CHRISTCHURCH, Oct. 27. “Personally, 1 see no reason why we should not abandon gold for external use as it lias been internally. America will then have to take our wool instead of our gold,” said Dr. T. W. Weston, farm economist at LinFarmers’ Union executives" of the coin College, when addressing the South Island at a conference to-day. The abandonment of gold altogether as a basis of credit would bo a forward move, said Dr. Weston. If England liad not gone off the gold standard New Zealand would have had to cancel some of its debts.
