ne turn meirara of world cur
rency. Three European countries
now count their money in tfillioni
and one measures it hy quad
rillions.
We are now getting the figure,
of paper money ol certain coun-
trie, fa “trillion,” ol their respec
tive units ol currency. The latest
reports quote the German ctrcn-
nation at nearly J2 trillions of
marks; Austria over 5 tril ion
crowns; Poland over 3 trillion
polish mark*, while Soviet Rni*ia
has long since passed the trillion
line, and the lateit idvicea put the
total of outstanding Soviet cur
rency at more than 4 quadrillion
paper ruble. (4.482^00^,000,000).
But even*If we disregard the
Soviet paper money which it no
longer included in the statement*
of world currency issued from
week to week In the financial re
ports of Europe, it is interesting
to try to comprehend the meaning
of !he word "trillion* In which at
least three European countries
other thau Russia regularly and
officially state their outstanding
paper currency. The latest reports
from Germany put the note cir
culation at nearly 32 trillion marks
and Poland nearly 3 trillion Polish
sssark. (2317359.476.000).
What 1, a trUlion? Wetaow
of eossrie, say, the Trade Record
of The National City Bank of New
York, that it Is a thousand billions,
and if we are able,to measure in
simple terms the real bigness of
the billion, fa which we are now
every day measuring world cur
rency and trade, it may be belplul
fa the attempt to grasp the snean-
ing of this new unit fa which we
are now measuring the multiplied
paper money of the countries
whose currency totals have passed
out of the billion class. *
To measure even a single billion,
said a lecturer addressing a class
in The National City Bank of New
York, la difficult, bnt can et least
be illustrated by a very simple
■v * " *—v no— 1
statement. We ail know how rap
idly the expert counter of coins
will manipulate them. The treas
ury experts at Washington will
count 4,000 silver dollars in one
hour, but that is their limit; work
ing 8 hours a day an expert will
count one million silver dollai

If this aame counter were to go
on counting the dollars at th»,
rate, 8 hours in every working day:
of the year, he will require 100;
years in which to count one bil
lion of them, and when we further
remember that the trillion is a
thousand times as much as the
billion we begin to get at least a
dim comprehension of qnantl-
tative bigness of the “trillion in
which the currencies of at least 4
countries are now being measured,
If, to cobnt one billion silver coma,
would require the continuous aerv-
ice of one man one hundred yf*r*»
