Copy specific notes

Bookplate inserted; bookseller stamp for “A. H. Spencer” Melbourne inside cover. “R.G. Menzies” written in pencil on front endpaper. Substantial underlining throughout text including pages 9-11; 14; 16-18; 21; 32; 34-35; 40-41; 43-44. Notably the concluding remarks in the book are underlined (p. 43-44) where the author contends: “In the controversies that have taken place in the past eighteen months there is sufficient evidence that political control of the currency would destroy confidence, and abolish reasonable checks to the issue of credit. We can therefore only reap the benefits of a liberal banking policy if the control of the currency be free from political interference.”
