Government subsidies and deficit financing have devalued the American dollar to an alarming degree and, a§ a natural result, prices have tended to rise despite-tardy government control measures. Interesting to note, however, is the real reason why priees have not risen as sharply as they have in many countries — even in the years between OPA and OPS. That reason is competition — the basis of Am- | erica’s economy — the operation of the old economic | law of supply and demand. America's manufacturers and merchants competing for sales have been the | biggest single deterrent to runaway prices. A recent survey shows that there have been price increases in 46 of 51 countries studied. While prices have declined in Burma, which is largely agricultural, they showed a 31 per cent increase in Finland. The United States, with an average 8 per cent rise, occu- pied 14th place in the list -— the rise chiefly due to increased cost of foodstuffs under Federal farm subsidies. HOW ABOUT IT, IKE? The longer General Dwight Eisenhower waits be- fore letting his friends know what he will and will not do, politically, in 1952, the tougher will be the job of his friends in getting him the G. O.

O. P. nomination. That seems to be an offer of Defense Secretary, perhaps Secret: of State, or anything else for if Mr. Truman runs again, and is elected, two important ifs. If Mr. Truman doesn't run, that seems to leave the way clear for him to endorse Ike on the Democratic ticket. But the President sounds very much like he is already running.
