Today and Tomorrow —+ssesrseeereee By WALTER LIPPMANN Managed Inflation Copyright, 1933, New York Tribune Inc. The one clearest aspect of the Adm tration's monetary policy is its intention. In general terms we know what it is meant to aecom- ph~h It is destined to raise the pn es of those goods most which ave fallen the most, so that those who produce those goods may have incomes to buy other goods and to pay their dehts. The evil of a deflation lies in the fact that some prices fall more than others; if in good times ,it took one bushel of wheat to buy a pair of overalls, there is trou- ble if it suddenly takes two bush- els of wheat to buy the overalls. This trouble is called the dispar- ity of prices. To correct the evil of disparity the price of wheat in dollars must rise or the price of overalls must fall; that is to }sav‘ the two prices must come to- gether until one bushel of wheat again buys one pair of overalls This correction of disparity in prices is now generally called re- flation. It is very necessary in managing a reflation to keep continually in find that the evil to be corrected is disparity in prices. For exam- ple: if wheat at $2 will buy a pair of overalls at $2, and then if | wheat falls to $1 while overalls | stay at $2, you have the disparity. | The farmer can not buy overalls; | the the overalls is is the kind of evil we have been suf- fering from. But now supposihg that by some monetary stunt you doubled all prices; wheat would then be $2 and overalls $4. Would you have gained anything? You would not. What you want is to have the price of overalls stand still, or even to fall, while the price of wheat rises. Now, this is, of course, a great amplification of our real situa- it may help- to fix in maker of P price reflation. . . It is interesting to examine what has happened to American price relationships since President Roos- jevelt took office. Fortunately there is now available an expert study of the subject covering the period up through September. The study has been made for the National Bureau of Economic Research by Mr. Frederick C. Mills. There is| no more authoritative the subject that Mr. Mills. To put his results briefly, and without using too many figures, Mr. Mills finds that from March to July the reflation worked al; most exactly as one would have desired in order to correct disparir ties of prices and bring the econ- omic system into balance. But he finds also that from July to Sep- tember the tendency has been to increase the dispariities and so to make it more difficult for goods to be exchanged. His findings, which are supported by colsely analyzed statistics, correspond with the general sense of the country. Up to July it was gencrally believed that recovery was proceeding rap- idly; since July there has been disappointment and a sense that recovery has halted. What was the evidence of a re- flation between March and July? Ignore prices stated in dollars, and measure what certain classes of commodities will exchange for, that is buy, in erms of other classes of commodities. In Feb- ruary, 1933, the raw products of American farms could buy, at wholesale, only 64 per cent of what they bought in July, 1929. On the other hand, manufactured goods could buy 111 per cent. These are examples of what is meant by dis- parity. [Either farm prices were too low or manufactured goods t00 high. TUntil the gap was closed: farm products and manufactured goods could not be exchanged suc- cessfully. Now what happened February and July? The pu ing power of raw farm products rose from 64 to 82 per cent, the purchasing power of manufactured | Now - $3000 Life Certificate Free for Inspection Ne Medical Examination Ages 1 to 75 You are invited to inspect, lutely free, sensational 10 ANNUAL DUES PLAN membership certificate fered by the American Life Assn. which pays $1000 for death from any cause and $2000 to $3000 for accidental death.

Trade was reviving. Recovery was under way. Now look at what happened between July and S:p- tember; farm prices fell from 82 to 78; manufactured goods rose from 106 to 107. The gap was op- again. The tendency was in the wrong irection. The country felt it in- stantly and the doubt and discon- tent of the past three months have reflected it . These figures are, I repeat, mere- samples. But they illustrate the problem of the Administration. It is not simply a problem of how to raise prices. It is a problem of how to raise some prices and how to hold down, and even to de- press, other prices. For what it needed is to close the gaps which the depression has opened, an¢ means not only raising farm and raw material prices, but hold- down retail prices, and push- ing down prices entering into cap- ital equipment. For the prices of tal goods are still inordinatzly as compared with other goods The Administration has recog- nized this fact, in forcing the stee’ companies to lower the price o' steel rails. But is has not recog- i the principle widely enough ts general poficy. Under thc A. A. A. it has struggled valiantly to raise farm prices. It is a doing its utmost to raise them by depreciating the dollar. But unde: the N. R. A. it has permitted, and n occasionally encouraged, ¢ in the prices of manufactured ods. Yet such a rise defeats and counteracts its efforts to raise farm prices. . LR bR in « & » we are to have a managed on there must be real man- nt.

Chamberlin returned on the Mariposa from an extended trip to the Westward bringing en- couraging reports regarding con- ditions in the country he covered. The Nelchina strike and several small ones around the principal towns to the Westward had made people there enthusiastic about the future. Ted Laughlin won the skating race at Jaxson's rink the previous night by a foot and a half. John Connors was second in the close contest which was witnessed by a large crowd. Mrs. Hazel Kirmse and her mother, Mrs. Cleveland, returned to Juneau on the Humboldt from Skagway, winere Mrs. Cleveland had been visiting her daughter. Mrs. Kirmse continued south to select a large stock for the holi- day, spring and summer trade. The Bergmann Hous2, one of the new and modern hotels to be constructed in Juneau, was receiv- ing the finishing touches and the furniture was being rapidly as possible. A party consisting of Dr. L. P. Dawes, Charles Duffy and J. J. McTague was on its way to Ju- neau from Wrangell on the launch Tonic, according to word received from Wrangell. They were com- ing north by way of Rocky Pass and Kake village. The doctor had business in Kake and Juneau and they planned to hunt ducks and geese on the way up. Interest was increasing daily in Douglas, Treadwell and Juneau over the Thanskgiving Day football game to be played by the Tread- well and Juneau teams on the Treadwell grounds. The team across the channel planned to put heavier men in the line-up and expected to win the second game of the series, the first of which was won by Juneau.
