Abstract
- The article discusses some of the factors which influence the price of silver during the world-wide economic depression of 1929-1931. The reduction of the price of silver compared to its pre-World War I price is discussed, as well as the world-wide consumption of silver. Fluctuations in the quality and supply of silver affecting price are discussed. The effects of hoarding in India, price depreciation in Mexico and South America, and foreign trade in China on the price of silver and purchasing power are also examined.
