BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE ILLNESS — BOT ki You're interested in this high cost of living, ‘aren’t you? You want to knew why bread’s worth more, and meat’s worth more, and clothes and furniture and shoes are worth more. As a matter of fact, they're NOT worth more, but— YOUR DOLLAR’S WORTH LBSS. That’s what financial sharps call INFLATION. Many economists maintain that the High cost of living results primarily net from’ profiteering or a § of good but from TOO Particularly too much paper W ihen there’s an overabundance of money in the world, the unit of pur- chasing power—the dollar or the pound or the franc or the peso ov whatever called in the various nations of carth — this unit grows less and less valuable. It takes more dollars than -before to purchase the same amount of goods. And the wage-earner, the salaried man, who receives only a fixed num.) ber of dollars for his labor, driven to distraction by the in d inabil- ity to make these dollars pay for his needs, while the producer or distrib- utor is apparently rolling in new wealth. A few figures will show the extent of the present inflation, which is world-wide. The fifteen leading nations of the} ” world, in the past tive years, have in- creased the amount of their paper money by 36 billions of dolla: "This increase is greater, at its face value, than all the gold and all the silver turned out by all the mines in the world in the past 247 years—that is, since the discovery of America! In the United States the amount of money in circulation rose from three and one-third billions in 1913 to five and one-half billions in 1918, Bank de- -posits—which form another addition to’.purchasing power—rose from 13 bitions in. 1913 to 25 billions in 1918. Y'The world's expansion of credit and currency in the past five years repre- sents the stupendous addition to pur- chasing power of 260 ‘billions of dol- Jars. Money: has become the CHEAPEST THING IN. THE WORLD, On the other ‘ hand, there is no scarcity of*goods—in this country, at least, Raw m&terials in the United States in 1948 were actually 16 per cent more’tlian im 1913, and 2 per cent more than’ in.4917. If the volume éf goods in‘ this coun: try, and ‘the .yofumte of business, - is actually’ increasing, high prices can- not be accounted for by a lack of sup- ply. They can only be accounted for by the over-abundance, of money:* We have, since. the war, increased our gold supply by more, than one. billion dollars!’ We have issued over two bil- lions of dollars of federal resetve bank notes! ) And these are only a few of the} + startling symptoms: which prove we are suffering. with an INFLATION FEVER. ‘Fever’ lapse. The danger from the fever of infla- ~tion lies in the relapse of DEflation. ‘DEflation means the procegs’ b. which the supply of money is ‘in made normal, so that a dollar’s wérth can be bought for a dollar. N And that’s a problem it hebooves every man to study.
