An Ancient Fallacy Inflation is generally feared as a federal administration measure to end business lethargy. Some pre- liminary steps of the Roosevelt era were of an inflationary nature, but no great damage has been done yet. ‘The threat of inflation rather than inflation has been present. Business is marking time for a definite an- nouncement upon the very vital issue of our future financial policy. More dangers than benefits lurk in a policy of monetary inflation. ‘The procedure is an ancient fallacy. Past antics of flat money have been disastrous. Once inflation starts, prudence seems powerless to control. One has only to revert to post-war conditions in Europe to explode the finest-spun theories of the super in- flationists, Some economists believe —and honestly so—that inflation is necessary to tone up business condi- tions and to correct what they so glibly term a scarcity of money. Many endorse the inflationiste’ the- cries because they seem an easy way out of our monetary difficulties. But such a “cure” is worse in its, ultimate effects than the disease. The violence of the inflationists’ eppeal should be enough warning of! its fallacy were not history full of the evil effects of printing press cur- rency. Fortunately, a survey of the press in farm centers end industrial dis- tricts of this nation proves there is strong opposition to such a palliative in the present emergency. The warn- ing is coming from those whose judg- ment in the past has been From coast to coast the press is en- listing in a concerted effort to pre- serve for the nation a policy of sound currency such as the Democrats promised in their platform of 1932. Presented below are a few com-. ments from the press of a nation: Cleveland Plain Dealer: * ° °, that the path of money inflation is a primrose path which leads to perils. Indianapolis News: respects the inflationists are not far different from the cheap money enthusiasts who sought to destroy the country’s monetary system in 1896, New York Times: On the other hand, history has taught, and not many years ago, the in- evitably disastrous results of the experiment. Des Moines Register: It is un- questionably true that spending ean be produced by really de- stroying confidence in the dol- lar's future. * * * People will get rid of dollars. But that process tends to become tumultuous. It involves the psychology of panic. St. Paul Pioneer Press: difficulty with deliberate infla- tion lies precisely in this fact that a little of it never suffices, and a great deal of it goes too far. St. Louis Globe - Democrat: ‘There is obviously no need for an increase of the currency to carry on the business of the country. There is, indeed, more money in Circulation than is necessary. | Kansas City Star: It isn’t the content of the dollar that is re- sponsible for our troubles. The responsibility rests with the peo- ple who use the dollar. Press comments could be multi- Plied but these are typical viewpoints of many of the nation’s most influ- ential newspapers. Inflation beckons toward 2 dan- gerous path and should be given a wide berth. We Can Help Ourselves Th the ballyhoo for political relief which has atealled the ears of farm- era for more than @ decade, there has the farm producer more money ft fewer eggs taken to market. If’ the average farm family con- sumed an extra pound of butter a week the surplus would disappear in five weeks and the price of that prod- uct would rise, ‘The same thing holds true with re- gard to poultry and cheese. Many individuals’ choose to market their flocks as 2 seasonal proposition, feed- ing them in the meantime. Poultry Specialists for years have advocated the culling of flocks and the sale of surplus birds at such times as the work can best be done. Granting that the city man finds it easy enough to dish out free andj} often unwanted advice to the farmer, | it should not be forgotten that we are all in the same boat together. Firms which handle the farmer's produce are in it with us, too. There is no Good reason why we should not all counsel together. At the same time that we tell east- ern manufacturers about the great market which exists on the farms and in farming communities such as Bis- marck, it is well to remember that ket. There is no harm in cultivating it to the utmost, particularly when such @ course will bring more money for what we have to sell to our fel- lows in the rest of the nation. Now that Gov. Langer has been di- | vested of 80 much of his political ap- Parel, he might try, by way of a snap- by come-back, the popular fan dance.

Mr. Ickes, of the interior, ad- ministering the public works section of the national recovery act, has available three billion three hundred million dollars.

When the reckoning comes it must be paid out of private pockets. The reckoning may be delayed, but the debt will come due. It will be as - against private enterprise. Whatever any administration of public wi may try to do, the disposition of money must be political, There can be no exceptions to this. Safeguards may be erected, but the rule of poli- tics is almost completely a contra- diction of the rule of private busi- ness. In politics it is permitted to make an investment of money which would be regarded as scandalous in private affairs. Tradition permits it and there is no public verdict against it. A transaction will be permitted in the political use of money which a orivate administrator of conscience would regard as criminal. Conscientious private use of invest- ments is governed by requirements of profit and safe return. These are definite facts ascertainable in ac- counting. There is no such test of a Political investment. One highly ad- vantageous to the politicians who control it may be a sheer waste so far as the public is concerned. Even ufider the conscientious Mr. Ickes it is already to be seen that in the ap- Portionment of public funds the im- portant political states are being fa- vored regardless of the national good involved. These are California arid New York, the latter being the home state of the president and the former the state of that very competent pol- iticlan, Hiram Johnson, to whose in- fluence Mr. Ickes owes a great deal. The public works fund must, when the accounting is made, come from private enterprise, and it cannot be used as it would be ufed by the citi- zens from whom it is taken. What- ever the intentions of administrators may be, the public money will flow into the least useful and least pro- ductive enterprises of the country. It will go into the backwaters of the ‘Tennessee valley. It will build dams and will be spent on waste lands. It will go into overextended government plants and into projects where it will be frozen, with no possibility of pro- ductivity. It may afford temporary employment, but there will be no return on the investment when the work has been done. Maintenance costs will be increased and-communi- ties will have white elephants on their hands, Politicians will be satisfied when Everything Is Being Revised These Days sal NES SIR! yes SiR!
