When that price was reach- ed in the ‘mark panic’ of the clos- ing week of January, following the French occupation of the Ruhr, the German Government decided that something must be done about it. At the beginning of January, the Frankfurter Zeitung had reckoned the average of German prices at 2,054 times the average of 1914; th the mark’s further collapse, prices at the end of the month were 7,159 times the present average The Government concluded that the |way to stop this intolerable rise in s|cost of living was to support the *| mark. “This naturally had to be done on foreign markets, and the only means of doing it was to use either the Reichsbank’s gold reserve or such ‘high exchange’ foreign cur- jrencies or exchange bills as were {held in Germany. The Reichsbank jot possession of a great mass of |these foreign currencies, and with them proceeded to bid for marks Jor mark exchange at London and jother foreign centers, Under such buying the price of the mark rose| thousandths, and it was then be- lieved at Berlin that the Govern ment had ‘stabilized’ the around the higher value and would keep it there. “If the Reichbank and the Gov- |ernment has been buying marks for | the purpose of cancelling them, the |operation would have been intel- ligible. Although more {tha two trillion paper marks were in actual circulation when the experiment be- gan, it was true, on the other hand. that, at the January price of 50,000 marks to the dollar, $1,000,000 in gold or American exchange would purchase 50,000,000,000 marks of the German currency. But the Government evidently had no such idea as that in mind. During the or sustaining the foreign price of the mark the Reichsbank trebled |the amount of paper currenc tanding just below two trillions the end of January it had been raised to six and a half trillions at the end of April. “The German Government's ar- gument that such additional output of paper money was necessary to meet the public deficit and the ris- ing cost of doing business is fa- miliar. It is at least comprehensi- ble. What is not so easy to under- stand, however, is that the govern- ment should have supposed con- tinued artificial support of any market to be possible when new supplies were being poured into it on a wholly unprecedented scale. It is probable that German business men themselves managed to sell their increased holdings of paper marks abroad, despite the govern- ment’s efforts to prevent it. It is |certain that no foreigner would buy face of such transpar- nt manipulation of the market. abilized price” was main- tained until the middle of April; then came the break, and all the y the sale of part of its gold re- |serve, could not withstand it.
