Best Answer

Hayes effectively tied the value of a dollar to the value of gold when he passed the Coinage Act of 1873. The Act stated that silver could only be used for coins worth less than one dollar. He also did not allow alcohol in the White House after one of the first parties. He began to follow his wife, Lucy, more commonly known as "Lemonade Lucy."
