To see a calm person in the midst of confusion, to find a self-possessed man who is quietly in control of himself and everybody else is hysterical and panicky, is always impressive. The excitable man lacks balance, rarely inspires the calm man rubs elbows with friends alike and is not thrown off balance. Most of us are calm and cool when things are running smoothly.

Here are a few reasons why: | The President has tightened cre- | dit controls on lower-bracket home buyers, but he has done nothing about controlling the soaring prices | of building materials. The wholesale price of lumber has jumped 25 per cent since June. It is practically impossible to buy cement at any price. Window glass is up 12 per cent over last year. Copper wire and other electrical and plumbing equipment has risen from 10 to 20 per cent, while home fuels are 10 per cent higher than last year. However, despite the growing trend of inflation, President Tru- man still refuses to control prices, though he has the powers to do 80 if he wants to use them. The! Democratic party has long criti- cized Calvin Coolidge’s indifference to inflation, claiming— e rightly | —that it led to an unforgettable depression.
