mircea_popescu: "Plaintiff seeks to make his case solely upon the theory that, by reason of the change in the weight of the dollar he is entitled to
$1.69 in the present currency for every dollar promised by the bond, regardless of any actual loss he has suffered with respect to any transaction in which his dollars may be used. We think that position is untenable."
